Have you checked it's not the wiring loom between the drivers door & the body that's the problem with the window switch- usually is.

Had exactly the same problem on mine the other week, intermittent electric window operation then a chattering noise when the switch was pressed and now wont work at all, not looked into it yet, but I suspect the wiring as missfixit mentions, mine looks like it has been repaired before (badly) so will be taking a look at it in the next week or so.
