Window is fixed!
OK...at least there was some progress today. I had fixed the frayed and broken wires coming from the door jamb into the door. When I pushed on the switches, I heard a muted "clunk" like it wanted to work, but it didn't. Then a friend of mine who has several MBZ stopped by and suggested I clean the contacts inside the console and door window switches. I didn't know that these switches could be disassembled and cleaned...they can be. A little 1500 grit paper worked the contacts over and voila...the window works like new. So Meta, before you disassemble half your cars to make your windows work, try this.
