too many hot leads to P-Window control

Drivers window powers down whenever the 8-pin (actually 7) lead is attached to controller switch on console. Up-window control overides down but only as long as it is engaged. Passenger side window operation normal. DMM test shows that too many leads going to drivers window control harness are live (as compared to comparable readings from pass'r side leads; details available upon request).
I've been moving the driver window up or down by attaching or detaching lead but it's a PITA and I'd like to fix it. I thought about installing a conditional power switch (cps) in the console position available (but unused) for sun-roof operation: cps on, window goes down; cps on, up-control depressed, window goes up. Good in practice, I guess, but it doesn't address the underlying cause. Recent posts have described really Bad Things that result from deterioration of heat shield over the cat and consequent damage to wiring harness, so I worry that this may be an early symptom of something worse.
So where do I start to look for the short that is causing my window problem?
TIA, Scott
