2000 explorer

My buddy has a gremlin in the window dept. Limited edition, if that matters, and both driver side and passenger side only work intermittingly however when the drivers door is opened they work fine. Kinda weird seeing him open door while cruising down fwy
I`m thinking a short somewhere but I will defer to the pros here.Thoughts?

Probably the common power wire since both sides act the same.

Likely where the wire flexes between the body and the door, the wire gets excercised.

I agree. That is most likely where the problem lies.
