Question
i have a 01 ford windstar,since i bought it the driver side window won't go down,i put a new motor and it only went down once,so i tried to put another motor and i didn't do anything,so i tried to put another switch panel and didn't work neither,every time i press the switch i hear a little click underneath the dashboard,i check all the fuses but they seem to be in good condition,any help would be appreciate!!

Answer
Hello Daniel,

From what you describe, I suspect that you might have a broken switch wire between the driver door and the body of the car. (notice the rubber "boot" between the hinges.)

I don't know what your knowledge level is or what tools you have available, so I am reluctant to try to give you much in the way of diagnostic tips that would require a wiring diagram or electrical meter.  I think you might be better off letting an expert handle this one.

Let me know if you have any other specific questions.
