Sorry for letting this go cold, for some reason I wasn't getting notifications through...
Anyway, it turned out to be the switch on the drivers side. I suspect that when I was winding the window up from the drivers seat, my sister pressed the switch too and perhaps it caused an arc that blackened the tiny terminals inside the switch. For now, I've bypassed the driver's door switch by connecting the Green/Back and Red/Black wires directly to ground. The passenger side now works fine and the driver's side is unaffected.
How much for a new switch?
