window switch LED issue, no window is on the fritz ....

A couple years ago I bought a set of blue LED modded window switches. When I put the driver's side switches in I forgot to drill the hole out a bit for the larger LED, so I think I messed up the door lock/unlock and window lock/unlock lights a bit. After years of use I finally felt like trying to fix them, so I took everything out and tightened up the soldering. Now the lights don't work and the driver's side window will only roll down then up once before it locks up. What can I do? Now I can't go through drive-thru's for dinner anymore! Anyone in So Cal area that can help out?

Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

have you taken the switch apart ... to see if it is possible that solder did just as mentioned above? if not ... start there. it could also be that you have just woren out the switch it's self. (doubt it ... but it could happen)
