85 E-150 Power Window and Lock problem

clev · 02-20-2007, 07:43 PM

Hi guys and gals, first post. I know this is a truck forum, but believe it or not, and 'E' is considered a truck, LOL. Anyway, I ordered this van in '84 and kept it in excellent condition. Last month, the power locks and windows stopped working. There is no fuse in the fuse panel for this; there is a fuse 'link' connected to the starter relay. None of the buttons work at any location. I ran a hot wire to the window motors and they both work; I've check for power at the switches and it checks OK. I don't think the switch is bad because it's not likely that they all quit at the same time. I'm thinking there is a relay somewhere that I'm not finding. Can/will someone help me with this problem?

Hello, it's me again. Sorry if I turned anyone off about the 'E' being a truck. But honestly guys and gals, I need some help. Quiet frankly, I haven't trusted the dealership mechanics for a long time; that's why I do my own work until the last resort. Please, if anyone has any knowledge about tracking a power window problem, I'd appreciate your input.
