So here’s the deal…

1. Power window, passenger side:

- Window doesn’t “roll down,” but “rolls up” when controlled by “passenger side” controls

- Rolls up and down just fine when controlled by “driver side” controls


2. Power lock, passenger side:

- Doesn’t “unlock,” but locks when controlled by both “driver side” and “passenger side” controls

- When using keychain, it doesn’t “unlock” only the passenger side


Any info would be helpful. Thanks! [patriot]

try and change the switch - the whole unit that controls the passenger side. might be bad.
have you taken it apart to see if any wires are damaged.

What particular switch are you talking about? Where is it located? (Sorry dumb questions)

first off- there arent any dumb questions - everyone has a learning curve - feel free to ask whatever [patriot] [Big Grin]

and the switch im talkin about is the whole unit that is on the door - i wish i was off work to add pics , but basically its the actual switch on the door [Big Grin]
held in by two screws. just unscrew it- comes right off....
i had a similar problem - and got a used one from foxbody - he is here on the site - or try haulinass motorsports [patriot]

Also check the relays might be at fault.

the switch is the button you are pushing at the passenger door, it sounds like the window switch is bad and the door lock actuator is bad, or some of the wiring is messed up going to those parts (after market speakers ghetto installed?)

i agree with 89 goose 100% there are no such thing as a dumb or stupid question. i use to feel the same way and did not wanna ask what i thought was a dumb question. that is what this site is for

but of course you do have your smart ass's

seems i get more feedback on this tech side then i do for sale side.

good luck with your car keep us informed [Roll Eyes]
