Both front Power windows dont work

csulsenti · 07-27-2006, 12:09 PM

I have a 95 Windstar and both front windows do not work. The motor is good but nothing happens. They died at different times but what i want to know is there a post on getting the motors out and repaired? I just replaced some plastic bushings in my Explorer's front window motors and it works great but there was a trick in getting the motors out. Has anyone run across this on thier Windstar?

I replaced both front motors in the 95 windstar I had. There is no trick they are fairly simple to remove and replace. If the motors are working try checking the wires on the window switches(checking for signals to the motor). I had one of the switches go bad on my 1995 also.

I had this happen a couple of years ago about 4 times. It was still under factory warranty and they kept replacing the motor, then it would go out again. Well the last time it happened, it was both windows (before it was just the drivers side) and it was not under warranty. So, I waited a bit to decide what to do. I kid you not, all of a sudden they started working again. And I haven't had the problem since...?!?!?! I just tell the kids, dont slam the door, thinking it could have been slammed once and screwed something up...it was wierd.

I agree - also a light tap with the side of your fist on the exterior glass has gotten them going again (same with the rear wing windows).
