Their Chevy window switch only needs very little effort. Power window switch come in two types, the toggle and rocker switches. The first one is pushed or pulled in order to go upwards or downwards, while the latter requires only pressing either of its ends to open or close the windows. This easiness is actually the reason why a child can be choked as he accidentally activated the vertical movement of the window.
