You need to take the car to a good independent mechanic. It will probably cost less than simply throwing parts at it like you’ve been doing.

Either broken wires or bad switches. I’m with @old_mopar_guy , let a professional figure it out.

Most of these kind of issues are due to broken wires in the harness that is inside the door jamb. They get stressed over the years and eventually break inside the insulation.
