Electric windows on most Fords typically wire through the driver's door switch. That one is the cause of failures more often than the switch located closest to the window.
I'd pull the switch panel and test the driver's door switch(es) first. If the switch tests good, test for voltage at the motor.

Mine did the same thing, contacts went bad in the buttons, ordered the new control on amazon/ebay, and fixed it right up.
Even though it was only 2 of the buttons acting up, i replaced the lock button as well since i was in there already.
Here is the lock button
Here is the mirror
and i found the window controls on lakeland ford.

MasterX,
Please provide a link to the window switches you used.
The mirror link did not work, came up with error.
The front passenger window did go back up after many attempts. Have not tried to lower it again out of concern it might not go back up.
Mirror control buttons work correctly.
Lock and unlock button works correctly.
All windows go up and down except the front passenger window.
Radio is working.
Thanks to all for your help! 👍

WARNING, My truck is a 2000, i know some of the electronics changed in 2002-2005, so if your in that year range verify fitment
Window Switches, this is the exact one i bought, from the invoice emailed to me
https://www.lascoautoparts.com/oem-p...ch-xl1z14529ba
This is the link for the mirror controller, i just tested the link, works for me:
Lock Switch
EDIT: I just saw on your profile you list having an 04 Excursion, triple check your fitment before ordering!!!! GEM made a lot of the electronics inside change at the 2002-2003 point, but not all.

i knew mine was the switches because it was occurring on all windows, and if i wiggled and pressed real hard, almost to the point of breaking the damn thing they would intermittently work. installed the new switches, problem is GONE

I was having kinda the same issues.... including my AC going in and out.
Ended up being a bad battery connection. The ground on 1 of my batteries was loose and corroded. I only found this after tearing all the dash, doors etc out and troubleshooting.
Don't be like me. Clean and tighten battery cables and vehicle grounds before troubleshooting.
