Auto down windows

I was just wondering if there is any way to put the auto down windows on all of them like the driver side window has?

I geuss you could fit a One Touch Down module from a 95 ish Town Car on each window.

Regards

I could just use the window switch from the driver side window on the rest of them. Would this work?

Hi Aortizexcursion

No that would not work, the one touch down feature is controlled by the GEM (General Electronic Module).

To fit the feature to the other windows you would have to wire each window individualy with it's own one touch down modulecontrol module.

How hard would it be to wire each, if not what else could I do.

Hi Aortizexcursion

It would be simple to wire in a one touch down module for each window.

I think the best place for the one touch down modules would be in each door, you would have to simply splice into the existing wiring on the switch and window motor.

Regards

Americans have become the laziest people on the face of the earth!

Now we, as passengers, can't sit and hold a power window button down for 3 seconds.



I say it as a joke, but ya know.... I believe it's true!

I'd love to do this as well...I probly would have asked the same question at some point.

VA, its not being lazy...its a matter of reducing workload for the driver! I am accustomed to having auto up and down mirrors on all windows from my previous vehicles...it really is a very nice feature that anyone would enjoy if they had it. I run with my windows down almost all time around town and would love to not have to hold the buttons........ok maybe a little lazy!

I guess I could do it for everyone in the Excursion, the passengers and the driver.

Hi Aortizexcursion

You only need three one touch down modules and splice them into your exsisting wiring.
