Default Window rolling slow

Hello I bought a 92 ls400 a couple weeks ago and I have a problem with the front right passenger window switch. When I try to roll down the window it rolls down really slow but when I roll it down with the master switch it rolls down just fine, could it be something wrong with the passenger switch or something else? Thanks in advance

Will be curious on this as well. My drivers window is extremely slow, but there aren't two switches to test.

There is probably s lot of carbon built up on the contacts. Remove the switch and clean them.

Have you lubricated the gears and pivot points?

Use Molykote 4700:


Specifications attached.
Used it in steering tilt gear mechanism, steering telescopic, starter reduction drive gears, window regulator and gears. Compatible with rubber and plastics. The right stuff. You will use about 1/2 -3/4 of the tube if lubricating all gear and pivot points on your vehicle.
$25 for the tube.

Molykote pdf G4500 is above lubricant.
The edit function does not allow removing pdf 7409...
