Express down

I have a 2009 HHR and the express down function of the drivers window doesn't work. The window does go up and down normally though.Is there some kind of setting I am missing?
Thanks Rick

There is no setting. All I can say is make sure you are doing it right. From the owner manual -

Express-Down Window
The driver’s window switch has an express-down feature
that allows the window to be lowered without holding
the switch. Press the switch part way, and the driver’s
window will open a small amount. Press the switch down
all the way, release it, and the window will go down
automatically.

The switch is not working, the contacts can be cleaned.

I've had a number of vehicles with one touch down windows and the HHR is the only one that doesn't work with any consistency. It never did.

Cleaned the contacts inside the switch and now it works. Can you dig it?
