Default Passenger Side Window Switches Not Working

My driver door panel switch works for all windows and the rear driver side window switch works as well. The passenger panel switch will unlock/lock the doors but neither window switch on the passenger side will work for the windows. However, when I use the driver side control for the passenger windows and try the corresponding passenger window switch; it cuts the power to that window.I pulled both foot panel covers and checked for broken wires or loose connections and did the same for the door panel switches but didn't see anything. To my knowledge; if I had a bad window lock switch none of my window switches would work, but the rear driver side does. Any ideas or suggestions?It's a '95

I too have issues with my 01 pass window where the pass window swiitch will usually not work, but sometimes it does.The front pass window always works from drivers door control. When the pass switch is working, if I drive it from the drivers door control...it stops the pass switch from working until I release the drivers side switch. I think that part at least is normal.

The 97-01s have an issue with the window lock solder breaking inside the driver control switch panel; there's a bypass you can do with would rule that out.
I'm going to try swapping in a working switch from the driver side to the passenger side, hopefully it works, if not it'll narrow it down to wiring.
