Driver's side window stopped working. Regulator or switch?

I noticed the auto close feature wasn't working yesterday in my 2017 Charger Hellcat. Well, this morning, it won't even go down. It seems like I can hear a click when I try to roll it down, but nothing happens. All other windows switches and mirror controls work. Would you guys think I should be looking at a regulator replacement or try my luck with a replacement switch panel first?

Thanks

Switches are a super common issue, especially in later model vehicles. They are cheaply made and fail often. Luckily they are also cheaply bought lol. If youre taking a stab at it without having someone try to run power to the regulator first, I’d go with the cheap part first, especially knowing they are usually the culprit.

Replaced on my Ram.
Not a Charger, but what was stated above.

See above ^^^^. Rain/snow coming in the open window is the possible cause

if your window is down in the rain and snow I think that's a non-warranty hazard :)
