Rear Power Window (driver side) not working in 2013 Avalon Hybrid XLE

The rear passender (driver side) power window will work from the left rear door switch but not from my driver door switch. All other windows are working both from my driver door, and from the respective door switches. I've checked the fuses, and they are OK. Can anyone figure this one out?

So, for Driver's rear window, motor works, up-down mechanism works, switch at that door works, no response from master power window switch. Sounds like the master switch at your left hand -for that window- is has either dirty contacts, loose connection to wiring harness, or has just plain gone bad. Try popping master switch up and out, check that wire connector is tight in socket, you might try popping connector off, then back on 2-3 times. Can't tell you how to take it apart and check + repair the switch itself. A new master switch can be pricey, but plenty of aftermarket and used around - figure $40 and up.

Look to YouTube, there are videos on diagnosing master switches. Not that you'd be interested, but there's probably a way to take the whole switch apart and get the one bad switch working again.

Me, I'd either do that or if short on time or interest, swap in a new master.
FIRST though, be sure there's power getting to left rear motor from master swtch!
