Rear Window Driver Master Switch

Rear Window Driver Master Switch
Vehicle is a 2006 X model.
Rear windows work fine using rear controls, however I cannot control them from the driver master switch. I can control the front driver and passenger windows from the driver master switch, just not the rear windows.
I'm hoping it's not the switch itself cause with the vehicle being this old, it isn't worth the $600 for a new switch just to be able to control the rear windows from the front. Anyone else encounter this problems? Solutions? Educated Guesses?
Thanks in advance.

Window lock would have the exact opposite problem, controls from the front but NOT from the rear.
Chances are your switch died, if you're moderately proficient with electronics you can remove the switch assembly, take the buttons off, separate the case and try using electrical contact cleaner to spray out the contact. Wear chemical resistant gloves though, I swear contact cleaner is the most toxic stuff you will ever encounter aside from Crosscheck Torque seal...
Do you HEAR AN AUDIBLE CLICK FROM THE RELAY (not to be confused with the tactile click you FEEL from the switch being depressed), I'm guessing you do not but if you DO hear the relay cycle then your problem lies elsewhere.
eBay can be a great resource for used OEM parts if you don't have a local pick n' pull wrecking yard with the parts you need.

Did it stop working suddenly, or has it been intermittent before this? And yeah if you can't find it on ebay or in a local jy, here's a new master switch that isn't $600
