Now, talking about 164 LS electric mystery, my front 
passenger side power window control hasn't been working
for the last few weeks (driver can still control the 
power window though). However, it started to work on
Valentine's day as I drove my wife for a day trip! To
make it a mystery, it stopped working again the very
next morning...
The window lift switches on the 164s are known to have problems and it is 
pretty easy to replace the switch, which is usually the problem, especially it 
seems on the front passenger side, which gets less use and so more chance to 
build up corrosion/tarnish or whatever.  I had the same thing on the 164LS, and a 
new switch fixed it.   HOWEVER, it is also easy to drop the wires inside the 
door, where there area PITA to fish out, so if you swap a switch, make sure to 
tape or otherwise secure the wires so they don't slip out of reach.
