I have 2002 explorer xls - the rear driver side window is in up position and
does not move when either drivers switch or door switch is operated.  With
engine off and interior lights on there does not seem to be any power drawn
when switch is operated up or down. First problem I have had except for when
windows frooze shut in very cold weather.

I googled up some old posts that refer to a power window relay in earlier
models that could cause problems  but can't locate any such relay in my 2002
owners manual. I have a multimeter but rather try replacing a relay before
tearing down door panels (anyone have intructions on that also)

Please copy my email address with any responses.

I went ahead and took off door trim and checked the power - all seemed well.
Reseating connectors didn't help, I recollect someone said to wack moter so
I hip it with a wrench a few times
and *** what do you know **** that seems to have fixed the problem!

2003 XLT.  Same window , three times in shop.  The last time they replaced
the motor.  However now it has stopped working in the up position again.
Maybe they will replace the truck this time? <grin>  Or hit it with a
hammer.......

Slam the door shut while pushing the button

They get stuck when you don't use 'm in a while, esp.in hotter climates
My 05 with 6k on it also did it ones

no biggie

TSB 05-1-5 released in January 05 addresses this problem.  Says it may
be a mechanical bind condition in the motor that may not be evidenced
in bench testing.   No solution offered other than replacing the
motors.

I like the idea of just slamming the door.
