Default Window issue

When i close my door my driver side window only repeatedly moves up and down about an inch and doesn't stop.
Its like the window thinks the door is opening and closing repeatedly.
I have tried re-indexing the windows multiple times.
Anyone have an idea what the issue is?

Just a guess. Maybe disconnect the battery wait 30 seconds and reconnect, then do the re-index procedure. Worth a try.

This is a symptom of a dirty outside door switch. Swap the outside door pad/switch with the one on the other side and see if the problem goes away. If it does then clean or replace the faulty outside door pad/switch.

Ill try the first method with the battery, then check the pads, I actually cleaned the pads about a year ago so i doubt they are rusty but ill definitely check and swap them.
