(rather proud of myself for that). But I couldn't find a way to get in there and clean the contacts... but I've got to do something. If anyone has any ideas please let me know (trying to find the cheapest way out as I don't have a lot of money).

I took some pictures of the setup but after fiddling with it and almost getting stuck with several windows down and not going back up I decided to stop messing around with it. I picked up a new switch for $65.10. Free shipping, the price was on Pinnacle parts online and I got "Autoparts Warehouse" to price match and any order over $50 is free shipping. So I think I came out on top versus the jerks at Team Nissan who wanted to charge me $110 when the MSRP was only $102.

I'll post some of the pics once I get my camera back. I tried a switch from a 99 SE and it didn't work. I tried several others that matched the plug and look but didn't actually function. I have no idea what's going. Here is some information on the actual switch

OEM # 25401 9E000
Fits The Following
1998-2001 Nissan Altima (all trims)
2000-2004 Nissan Xterra
2000-2004 Nissan Frontier (Crew Cab)

I don't know why the '99 didn't work in my car but its ok I guess. Just remember if you hit a junkyard that even if the switch looks good it may not actually work. Good Luck with it, if anyone has any helpful advice just let me know.
