02 Excursion Driver Door Power Window Problem
Ref: 02 Excursion Limited Diesel 4X4 w/ ~83K miles.
Hello out there. I am trying to diagnose my problem with my dirver door power window. I do not know what to jumper to see if the switch is the problem. No problem removing the switch assy. thanks to the threads in this forum. Tried jumping LB/BK to both wires going to the motor per the wiring diagram (TN/LB and WH/BK, page 100-3 in the Ford Revised Wiring Diagram) - separately and together. The LB/BK did have 12VDC on it when I did this with the key switch to ACC. Maybe I have completed the test and just don't know it.
Symptoms were: For a while, window was intermittent - would work up & down but then would do neither. A good "bop!" on the inside door panel, below the switches, would get it going so I winged it for the last 2 months or so. Now the bop is a useless gesture.
Thanks.

I have the same problem..mine is intermittent. I tried lubing the linkage and cleaning the contacts to no avail. Mine sticks..you can hear a click when you push the button..but nothing will happen. touch the window or push on it and walla, it will move. I was going to change the operating switch to see if that was the problem. Its no fun pulling up to a drive thru and your window wont open.

Thank you for the depressing responses.
No motor whine. I did not try bumping/nudging the window - will try this.
Makes sense I guess since this is th emost-used window but with only 83K miles, that seems to be a poor life for a DC motor.
I haven't heard if I did the jumper test correctly. Guess I did.
Any words of wisdom re: changing this motor out vs. taking it somewhere to have them do it?

Take it to dealer,, time about 2 days, find other transportation time to make two trips and follow up calls. est $$ 500.00+ to repair.
Your choice. I will do mine at home with a beer. Jim

UPDATE: I took it to a good mechanic - they replaced the motor & regulator for under $200. Got the parts from the dealer - their price was better than their non-dealer supplier. Now I can dashboard dine without worry about chipping the door edge paint again!
