- In this video we will show you how to replace the window motor for a Ford F150 between the years of 2004-2008. I believe this video will also work or be very similar to the Expedition and Super Duty of this
era. Doing this simple repair yourself will save you hundreds of dollars for maybe an hour of your time. Thank you for watching!

Was going to have to pay 250.00 for getting this repair done in a local shop even after removing the panel and all parts necessary to simply replace it. (And I purchased the part myself separately which was another 96.78). But after watching this I decided to just do it myself and it worked like a dream. I was super intimidated before watching because of the very tight space to work on inside the door panel but this out my apprehensions to rest and got it done in an hour like a pro and it's working perfectly. Thanks so much for your very patient, thorough and possibly explained video.. You sanded me a wad of hard earned cash. Keep up the
Yeah it's not so bad if you take your time! Thank you so much for watching Misty!
Fir those of you working on windows other than the driver side. Make sure your driver side window control panel is unlocked allowing your passenger window control panel to function. Lol, I didn’t do that took me a while to figure it out. Great video.😂
Haha, this just happened to me 😂
pushed button to let fly out , window disappeared, lol, thanks to you, I got the assembly replaced with out a big hammer or cutting torch. lol. You da man. thanks Ron
Confirming this video was straightforward and incredibly helpful. Completed the project successfully after ordering in the new regulator part. Sincere thanks to you 2CarPros!
Amazing! Thank you so much for watching!
Saved myself $300+. Thank you!!
Total cost: $92 (bought parts from Oreilly’s - it was $50 online but I needed it done ASAP. Saved myself time & money by doing it myself!!
Nice safe! Love reading that! Thanks for watching!
One of the best how-to videos on CZcams today. Very helpful !
Did it yesterday, your video was so helpful.
Thank you.
The only thing gave me a hard time was those clamp screws that came with the replacement regulator, I didn't realize I had to loosen them, until later.
Awesome! Thanks so much for watching!
My passenger side actually went out before my driver side. Got the replacement regulator and I’m ready to dig into it. This video will help a ton! Appreciate it.
Awesome! Both of my windows went out within 40 mins of each other on a roadtrip. Thank you for watching!
This video helped tremendously. It made changing my window regulator a breeze. Thanks a bunch!
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Just fixed my dads truck for him and was able to save him quite a bit because of this video, it was a simple step by step process! Thanks!
Great to hear!
Thank you so much for the video I got it done just before a storm came!
Glad it helped!
Fantastic video! Could not have replaced my 2004 F-150 regulator without your help. Thank you sir!
After watching this video I thought, "I think I can do this!". Thanks Ryan. Much appreciated.
You got this! It is super doable if you go slow. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the video helped me save some money and a fun experience working on truck!
Great video. Very organized with lots of little tips. I was able to change the window regulator on the passenger side of my '04 F150. Made it a Sat project and saved a couple of days in the shop no doubt. Thanks
Awesome! You saved tons of money! Thanks so much for watching Ron!
Looks like I’m putting mine in the shop. I did everything every CZcamsr suggested and none worked and now I’m forced to have my truck put in the shop so frustrating!!!
Great video! I loved the comment "it's a pickup truck not a submarine". This will help me with my wife's expedition. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Exceptional video. This is the cleanest auto repair video I have seen. Great work and extremely helpful. Thank you
Wow, thanks!
One mistake~ First I want to thank you for the video. I couldn't have done it without the help. One thing I noticed is there are 5 bolts for the regulator and you only show 4. At 19:46 you can see the empty bolt hole next to your drill. The bolt goes into the regulator in the area of the motor. Thanks for the help!
The person that did it the first time must have forgotten it. Thanks for watching!
Buying a "new" truck this weekend. The passenger side had this issue. Was going to get it replaced(professionally) since I've never done it. But after watching this, I'm doing it myself. Well done video. Thanks
Nice work! With these 5.4L v8s make sure you keep up on the maintenance or you will be replacing that engine. It is fragile like glass when maintenance is neglected. Thanks for watching!
@@2carpros Anything specific to look for? lol, you got me worried now.
Excellent video. Followed it step-by-step replacing my passenger side. Thank you very much.
Awesome! Thanks for watching Ryan!
Great clear concise video saved money and tackled it myself. It wasn't as daunting knowing I had you there to reference just by hitting play.
Thanks👍
Excellent! Thanks for watching!
You forgot the bolt for the motor.... when putting the new one in im watching saying dude the bolt for the motor the freaking bolt for the motor dude then you started putting the plastic and the panel on and i said yyyoooo the moottoorrrr. but great video👍🏽 thanks. I'm on the passenger side it doesn't wanna go up but I think cause the window switch on the passenger side is not connected to complete the circuit if thats how it works i usually do suspension work not electrical interior its my grandpa's truck he left the door panel and switches at home and im at my house working on it.
I just followed your video and was able to replace my passenger side front electric window regulator. The window went down and did not go back up. Your step by step video allowed me replace the regulator in about an hour. Your tips with the positioning of the window clamps saved me so much time and money! Although after I replaced the door cover and hooked up my wires to window switch, somehow, pushing the window button up, the window goes down and pushing the window button down and the window goes up??? Not a bug deal.
Hey nice work on saving some cash! Make sure your didn't plug something in backwards. Thanks for watching Bill!
I had the same issue and followed everything to a T. There’s nothing to put on backwards. So not sure why that happened
Just finished the job thanks to this excellent video, Thank you! note: @ 5:28 you might just want to loosen those bolts enough to reduce the clamping pressure on those window clamps. Had same issue as others.. down is up, and up is down. Noticed a jumper between the old (bad) motor and the door wiring. I assume this switches polarity. Sucks because the jumper used a different motor connector. I guess I'll have to find a different jumper; gonna live with it now though. Thanks again for this video! I never would have tackled this job without it.
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the clear and informative how-to.
Got an `05 F150 who's passenger window cabling system failed and the glass sank inside. I can get the paneling off, but wasn't sure how it was mounted and the way the glass sat in the clips.
(Also, appreciate the laugh about the speaker weather-stripping - I put mine back together and started swearing when I saw it on the seat "Here we go again").
I think I have the same issue. Did you replace cable or complete regulator?
Just ordered for the driver side of my 2005 King Ranch. Your video is awesome, keep up the good work! Tried opening the window yesterday and heard a crack and the window started going down by itself. Had to take the door panel off so I could get the window back up so it doesn't get rained in. Ordered the regulator. Going to take a week to come in from Amazon. I currently have the door panel in the back till the part arrives. Had to get my wife to open the door from the outside so I could get out without having to crawl into the passenger side to get out, lol
You got this! Thanks for watching Tony!
Excellent video. Thanks for posting !!
I just want to say, Thank you. This video helped me a lot!
Really great video....no big deal but you also left off the speaker black weather stripping... easy fix great video!!!
Thanks for watching!
Great video! I replaced my driver's side today and felt confident enough to do it, because of this video! Thanks!
Great job! Thanks for watching!
It worked for me about as ez as you made it look. I had to change a plug on the window motor that added 10 minutes of total time. 30 minutes start to finish for a job well done. thanks for clear and ez to fallow instructions took any guess work out of what was holding what. Good camera work and clear audio two thumbs up. Next time i have a CZcams job I will check to see if you have a video before I open videos with poor lighting and echoed sound. Great job
Mark
While I was cleaning up the tools and trashing the old parts i came across a bag that had an adapter to plug the wires. Should have inspected the packaging a little closer
Just tried it. It works !!!! Thank you
Gracias muy bien
Just finished the passenger side on my 2005. Thanks a lot for the video!!
Nice work!
thanks,,, this helped me change one for a friend that her cable broke and dropped the window,, glad it didnt break , but took the old one out, and secured the window in the up position until we got the part
Scary! That happened to me on the passenger side on a rode trip through Utah when it was 28F out. Quite the chilly drive to a hardware store for tape. Thanks for watching!
Manufacturers and Dealerships are hating this video😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣👌🏼👌🏼
Yep definitely lol Thanks for watching!
Fantastic video, got me through it no problems. The hints and reminders along the way were great.
Glad it helped! Nice work!
thanks for the video. your process was very organized. loved it....
Doing this tomorrow! Thanks for this video!
@17:43 that's the best secret to re-installing this door panel. Without moving those speaker swivel-mounts, this door panel is a pain in the arss to put back. Great video by the way.
It is the lynchpin for sure! Thanks for watching!
Man! This was soooooooo easy! Under $100 job! Thanks for your video and your help!!
You're welcome and it saves all kinds of cash! Thanks for watching!
Thanks dood! Was able to complete the job cause of your video!
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Just did this, and taking the door off was really annoying since it was raining outside when my window decided to drop down while my wife was driving it. She said she heard a big bang. She drove back, and here I was at night, in the rain, door open and trying to get the door panel off. Luckily drove it under a car port overnight until I got the part today. I watched this video and I was like "Omg this is gonna take me hours" --
Got the part, took the old one out, which got stuck and took me 20 minutes. Cables were twisted, all messed up. Taped the window which was luckily not broken with packing tape after I pushed it up (before I took the old regulator out).
Wasn't wearing gloves so after handling the new one out of the box, my hands were covered in silicone. I had to wash them for 5 minutes in hot water to get it off, then I could get some gloves on. Then I went outside, folded it up, push it in and it had bolts already on so they just slid right in. Took 5 minutes, then I plugged the thing in and made the pad things that grip the window go all the way up into the window, screwed the bolts down to secure it, then voila, all done. 10 minutes to get the new regulator in and window working.
So now I'm inside for a bit, waiting for a while as I do some other work, then I gotta go out and put everything back together which I am sure is going to take 30 minutes or more. Getting it all apart was hard enough, but all in all, if you have the part I estimate it should take 1 hour 30 minutes total from disassembly to back together. I watched like 5 videos last night and this one stood out, and this is the one I watched 5 minutes before I installed the part again. Amazing video.
Part cost me 44 dollars, and for me almost 2 hours when it's all back together I am sure, so if I made 30 bucks an hour at my job then that's a loss of 60 bucks. So total 104 dollars vs quoted cost of 350 bucks. That's 250 bucks saved.
Thanks for mentioning the socket sizes. That was a great help.
No problem 👍
Thank you. Easy DIY. I wrote the steps down on post it’s and put them on the window. Not bad!
Excellent!
Outstanding video. Thanks for the lesson.
Glad you liked it!
Really good video if anything if I were to say anything I would have to say it doesn't take much time to remove the glass and you don't have to worry about track position at that time you can install the glass easily after the regulator is installed
Yeah its just an other step that people on CZcams would lose their minds if I did and you didn't need to do it. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the vid, man. It helped.
No problem 👍
well done on this video, very helpful
Thanks for watching John!
Lovin' this series Ryan , keep it coming!!
Thank you for watching! :)
Thanks you helped me. My replacement regulator went down when I pushed up, and up when I pushed down. After some googling I read to swap the 2 wires. Not sure why I had to reverse mine.
Awesome Vid! You walked me right through it! Thank you! Def subscribing! 😎
very well done, thanks for vid
Thank you! You saved us a bundle!!
You really made it easy for me. I have to ask if it matters which side the motor is on the regulator? .... WLRA-3 shows the motor on the left track on the new one, while the one I took out it's on the right track.
I don't think the motor itself is different side to side but the regulator is. Thanks for watching!
Great video! Thank you!!!
You are so welcome!
Great video
Thanks!
Thank you for this! Mine just grenaded.
Thank you gonna gives this a try after watching your video
Yeah it's not too bad. Thanks for watching!
So, the problem I seem to have, is that the Driver's window switch seems to work backwards. It works fine, otherwise. I'm guessing the window regulator is a DC motor, which means it's highly likely the wire harness for it has it's wires switched. If you could do a video on that part, or even just reply if there's something else I should look at, I'd really appreciate it. This video is perfect for telling me how to get in there to check the connection. (second hand truck, and there's been a few other small repairs that were kind of janky, so I suspect someone changed the window regulator and didn't connect it correctly when they put it back).
have the same issue with my 2005 F-150 Lariat crew cab. There was a jumper installed between the motor and the door wiring. I'm guessing it switched polarity. I'd have used it but the other connector is roundish.. I'll live with it until I find a solution.
2006 Ford Expedition E.B. my driver's side window regulator cable broke and the window came out of track. Do I need anything special to secure the window in the new track when I replace the regulator? Does the window sit in the track with an adhesive or something else like clips secure it? If my window came out of the track and it is secured by clips where do you get the clips?
I am going to purchase the regulator off of Amazon or do you have suggestions?
Thank you!
Thanks man! This helped out a lot!
Glad to hear it!
Thanks for saving me 350 dollars!
Nice work! Thanks for watching!
Appreciate the video! Changed er out no problem.
Good to hear!
thanks for the video none of my windows go down in my truck
Now you can fix it easy! Thanks for watching!
Thanks a lot man, great video!!!
Glad you liked it!
Thanks man!
Happy to help!
Thank you so much, you were very helpful!!!
You're welcome!
My driver side 2005 Ford lariat will roll down but won't rolup the switch doesn't work at all the switch is partially out on the master control on the driver side. What switch should I replace this is a four-door as the rear door on the passenger side of my pickup that won't roll up ? Any suggestions!
Is there a chance the motor alone is the issue and not the regulator mine will go up sometimes but then will get stuck and buzz and I have to pull it up by hand and sometimes it will just stop working for a few days.
YOU CAN JUST SLIDE THE WINDOW INTO PLACE WHEN YOU INSTALL NEW ONE,,,,,,TNX FOR VIDEO,,,,
Good video, 👍🏼
Glad you liked it!
Thank you so much for your instructions on replacing my friends window regulator I am a female doing this for my male friend while he's at work thank you for your help and your very well-presented
Very cool! Thank you for watching!
Thanks.... took me 40 min to change it
Not bad! Thanks for watching!
Good job
Thanks for watching Chris!
Looks like you did an phenomenal job 👏
Thanks for watching Robert!
I know this is an old video, but I found it very informative. It'll really help me with the repair. One question I do have is, my window is stuck about 1/3 of the way up. It won't go up or down. Can I tape it in the position its in, or should I loosen the window clamps mentioned, raise it manually, then tape it in the closed position?
Yeah you can, you just want it in a workable position that won't fall on you while you un bolt things. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video
No problem!
Great video! I have a 2004 ford f150 , will mine have the 10mm bolts or rivets?
Bolts most likely, this was on a 2005 so they are probably the same. Thanks for watching!
How would you bring the window up if the motor is totally dead and the window is in the 100% down position?
What if my window regulator failed with the window down? How do I raise the window? Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks
I need to know too!
Got my new regulator and the window clips aren't going up like seen in the video
Great vid so helpful
Glad it helped!
Yeah, I always forget about the speaker standoffs and can't get the door shell back on.
I heard that 04 F150 parts are interchangeable with 04 freestar Parts and was wondering do you think that window regulator would fit in 04 freestar passenger side?
Can't say one way or an other. It will be similar but maybe not the same. Thanks for watching!
You might want to mention those plastic pieces that the front speakers fasten to when trying to re-install the panel. And that the rear speaker screens (on the crew cabs) should NOT be removed from the door panel.
Did this and now when I put the window up it hits top and automatically comes back down or don't want to work at all sometimes
Is it the same process for the rear window
Yep. Just looks a little different. Thanks for watching!
I do I make sure it's the window regulator and not something else causing the window problem?
Your video will be very helpful if it is the window regulator, Thank you.
Usually its the regulator that brakes but it could be a switch or fuse. Thanks for watching!
@@2carprosRight, I already bought a new box switch, and it it wasn't that.
Thanks for your response l, greatly appreciate it.
Yo where's that link to the diagram?
I don't have yt app, and my browser doesn't zoom in on my phone
Thanks for the video. Just did mine. Did you forget the speaker gasket though?
Thanks for watching! Nah its on there.
What do you do when the window is stuck down
Feel like ima need to do this. Mine stopped working and i just hear a thud sound and not wanting to go down. Super weird .
Sounds like it. Thanks for watching!
Know after watching that I will pay someone to do this. Hope they complete it like you did. Front Passenger and back passenger have gone out at same time! Ford 🤷🏼♂️
They should. Thanks for watching!
How do I know if I need to replace the whole assembly or just the motor itself ?
If the motor doesn't turn at all or is noisy. Probably the motor. If the line snapped or is off track. It's regulator. But honestly it's usually best to replace both. Thanks for watching!
@@2carpros it’s just starting to not want to go up without help when it’s cold outside
Thank you!
You bet!
Thank you
Thanks for watching Madeline!
Help me fix my window
Best example of a good precise video and instructions plus good tips and different views of the job being done ✅
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching Joseph!
Question, what does a guy do when you have a 2012 Ford F-150 and the bolts to loosen the window are unreachable? What do you recommend?
Might need to carefully move the window up or down manually. CAREFULLY though it is really heavy. Thanks for watching Chris!
Is there video for rear regulator
This is very very similar. Thanks for watching!
