Question
My window goes down, not up. I switched the switch with one in the back and it works the same, down but not up. No sounds, everything seems smooth and in place. Works down from both driver and passenger side. I've started the motor and tried, I don't see any dimming from the lights when I press up.
What next? 05 Explorer
Hi Pat,
I suspect your problem is in the master switch on the driver door. This is a common problem on the 2002-2003 vintage Explorer, which uses a similar, but different switch than your 2005.
I don't consider myself an expert when it comes to electrical troubleshooting, so I can't give you anything specific as to what steps you need to take to confirm the source of the problem.
Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

| Comment | I solved it! I did get a new module and had no success. So, following the advice I found online, I checked the wires in the boot between the door and the engine compartment. Sure enough, a wire was severed and a second is breaking. Fix the wires and presto I've got power! Thanks, | ||
