Window switch up for window down?

I am installing RS door panels. I hooked up the driver side electric window switch like on the attached picture and it is working backwards. Push the lever down and the window goes up.... Is the picture wrong or is my wiring "funny" What leads would I reverse to get the window to go up when the switch is up?
TIA

Just flip the switch.

Sorry, don't know if it's wired correctly.

Thanks John Walker, switching the 2 middle wires did the trick. I was thinking about flipping the switch but the wiring isn't in great condition so I was worried about twisting it up.
