Default Power Window switch direction

Default Re: Power Window switch direction (Markm10431)

Mine is opposite. Push switch down (towards me) the window goes down. Push switch up (away) the window goes up.

There is a three wire harness which connects to the switch in the console, but I would think it would be pretty hard to get that on backwards (the wire is kind of tight in there).

My guess is that someone swapped the two wires on the motor in the door? Do you know if someone replaced the motors in the past? Is it this way for both windows, or just one of them?
