Random window movement

my pass side rear window has a mind of it's own... If the windows aren't locked it will go down a bit at a time on it's own... Anyone come across the window ghosts?

Disconnect the rear switch or use the lock out from the front and see if the problem goes away.

If I lock out the windows, it won't move, trying to figure out if it's my driver switch, or the rear switch that's buggered..

Just for grins, I would disconnect the battery to reboot everything. So much of this car runs off computers that there is a chance that it could fix it.

Try what carguy suggests.
Based on what you state my money is on the rear switch. [You can operate the rear window from the front with the lock-out activated]

I will disconnect the battery today while im finishing off the backup camera install. i did check and none of my windows will work from the drivers seat master control while locked out... so im not sure if that is normal or an indication of an issue... all window motors work, im wondering if maybe that motor has also gone funky as i sometimes can hear a noise coming from that door while the motor is not in use.... still rather odd..
