My rear vent windows will occasionally not open. If I flip the switch back and forth a few times, it will work. I need to address this issue with the dealership but fear it will be one of those infamous "unable to reproduce condition, no problem found" issues.

I just purchased my 2000 Excursion 4x4 Limited a couple weeks ago. Right after I got it, the right rear power vent window quite working. Even though it is wayyyyyyy out of warrantee, and even though I didn't purchase an extended warrantee through F&I (I wanted too, but it was to freaking expensive), the dealership will be fixing mine on their nickle. It goes in for service this coming Tuesday.
On mine, when the button is pushed, you can hear the servo or the connection clicking, but nothing activates.
Oh well, I hope this will be a permanent fix!

I have 00 ex. THE REAR VENT WINDOW WILL not open. I can hear it click but, the actuator or motor just will not operate. What other things did you guys do to unstuck this motor, this vent was working fine last week. I am thinking of removing the panel and see what I can unfreeze. How difficult is it to remove the panel and how?

One of mine was stuck closed for a while also just after purchase 
. Same thing, you could hear it trying from the drivers seat but it would not open . Tried a few days later, a real warm day, and it opened up
. While opening though, you could hear the glass coming unstuck from the weatherstripping . Went back and checked, found the weatherstripping to be quite tacky
. Cleaned off whatever it was and have had no problems since
. Not saying this will cure everyones problem, just my two cents on the subject.
