Don't know if you resolved your window problem yet, but over the years, I occasionally have had an individual window that didn't work on my '84 190D - typically, it is the driver's window. Every time, it was the switch in the console in between the seats that was the source of the problem. Removing the switch from the console and opening it up is pretty evident just from examining it. If you've never opened a window switch up, just be careful to do it over a plate or pan because it contains parts and small balls that may fall out if you don't hold it upright. I simply cleaned all internal parts and put it back together, and that fixed the problem every time. Whenever I have a problem with my car, I always start with something simple initially. My car is 34 years old and all the regulator motors are still going strong. Good luck with that!
