Once you have things clean reassemble by inserting the rocking contactor back in. I also switched ends on these. Turn one over and one contact area will be much more worn than the other. Pic one shows the difference.

Drop them in place, add a couple drops of lube and reseat the rocker ball.

Clean the plastic rocker and the spring holes in its bottom. I added lube there and put the springs back in.

With the switch sitting on the connector pins gently push the plastic rocker down ... back into the switch body. I found it easier to help by using the screwdriver to expand one side and then the other.

Test the switch a few times you just refurbished. It should be smooth and snappy.

Continue on to the next window switch set.

WARNING: The small square switch in the middle of the two window switches has a very small indexer or clicker that take flight if allowed to. Be very careful as the two switch sliding parts are separated. By small I'd guess it is around an 1/8".
