my 01 F250 power windows only work from the driver switch with the lock on, if I take the lock off and use the other door switches the window may go up a little and then I get a burning smell from the switch at the driver door. I am looking for a wiring diagram to trace this out. Any help would be appreciate

 

go buy a chilton or haynes manual..they will have diagrams in the back.....best $20 bucks i ever spent...

 

I have the Haynes manual, the diagram does not have the lock out switch shown and the color code is all wrong making it a bit hard to follow.

 

I bought shop cds from ebay for 24.99 shipped to my door. They are superb, wonderful, exciting, exhilarating, wordy(in a good way), Helpful,complete. Oh, and i like them. They cover 96-01 all ford products and take 8 Gig on my computer!!!!!! well worth the money. They are the shop manuals that the dealers(supposedly) use.

 

search automotive repair manuals store on ebay

 

it's your switch the lock shouldn't control your switch at all

 

look for a sort to ground on your ye/LG wire it's the feed to your other switches which goes through your lock switch but if it was grounded I doubt your other switches would work also it should blow a fuse so get a switch

 

I replaced the switch and it resolved the problem for about a week and then it re-occured, so there must be something else causing it. All I can think of is possibly a partially broken wire causing a voltage drop and corresponding high amp draw.

 

rioinaz,

Were you able to find the source of the problem? I have an Excirsion with identical symptoms.

Thanks!!!!

David

 

I have not found the problem due to a lack of time. Work finally got busy and I so have been a little nuts
