A switch is just not a switch

Just blurbing outloud. Passenger Window has been doing this crazy thing where it rolls down on it's own. Child lockout seemed to be keeping it shut, BUT occasionally, when making left or right turn, somehow this triggered child lockout to turn off (and window would roll on it's own).

Replace master switch, no dice in resolution.
In my mind, it never would register as the window switch itself, as I could not see how that would trigger between the steering wheel *turns* and turning off child lockout.

I've got a new switch on it's way but in between swapping the switches to different door sides, it looks like the offendee is the little itty bitty switch on the door itself. Go figure

Is it actually "rolling down" (as if you were pressing the button)...or is it dropping? If the latter...then do a search for window regulator...when they fail...the windows can drop slowly or all at once...or even intermittently.

Thanks for the offer Props but it's actually the rear window. FedEx is scheduled for delivery today.....sofar , with the final diagnosis, it does look like the rear switch was the root of my issues. Just could't see how it would cause a downstream issue like turning off child lockout as well.

Only reason I know child lockout turns off, is the couple times since turning it on, to keep it from dropping ( when making a turn and going full lock), we hear the window start dropping and when you look at the child lock, viola, it has magically turned off as well
