I called up Ford Employee Parts Program and got the part for about 74 bucks shipped. I get 25% off parts through Ford. It was the easiest way for me to get the part. I just didn't want to call and look all over the place for the switch. Thanks for the help!

So you can just unbolt the motors in these doors? The 2 GM's ive worked on had em riveted in and i had to put bolts in to put the new motor in as the rivet gun i have would never fit in there.

I have to wonder why the contacts burned? It might still be a bad regulator that puts too much of a load on the motor which in turn burned the contacts.

I'd hate to see you burn out another switch. With the new switch, if it is still slow, you stil have a problem that will probably burn out the new switch and possibly even the motor this time
