Title: 2012 F 350 power window stopped.
Post by: huntandjeep on September 30, 2017, 10:29:48 AM: Last weekend my daughter rolled down my rear drivers side window and it wouldn't go up with her switch or the driver's switch. I just replaced the motor / regulator . Plugged everything in before I put the motor/regulator back in the door and tried the switch and it all worked. Got the motor back in the door and put back together and now nothing. Doesn't work with drivers switch or rear switch. I can hear the motor do something like a click when I push the switch down but nothing on up . Any ideas before it goes to the dealership next week ?

Must be bound up because you put it back together wrong?

Yes worked outside the door. Not real sure how I could have put it in wrong.

I thought of the fuse , but there is only 1 for the power windows , and the other 3 windows work.

When I worked in a dealership we found that this is often the problem with intermittent power window operation.

Thanks you were right.
