I had one functional motor out of four when I bought my car. The switches are fairly easy to disassemble. I epoxied a brace onto a broken part in one and cleaned the contacts of the remaining switches. I attempted to get pictures but my camera did not cooperate for close-ups of the parts. The rocking contact pieces can be removed for cleaning (most common failure) by bending one of the tabs they ride in out of the way to release it. This process can be done on the car but it’s not very time consuming to melt the solder at the back of the switch and solder them back on when your are done.
Considering a set of four will run you, what? close to $320 It may be worth considering the repair. All told I spent two to three hours on the project but by the end I could go through a switch and have it back on the car in 20 minutes.
