- 96 Ford Explorer XLT 5.0
My name is Wayne and I recently acquired a 96 Explorer XLT with the 5.0L engine. Previously I had a 92 Explorer XL manual with the 4.0L V6. I have experience with the 92 that I hope will bleed over into the 96. But just today my drivers front power window went out. I put it down with the switch and when I got home it would not go up with the switch, so I removed the door panel, and proceeded to apply 12v power to the motor itself and just like with the window button all I hear is a click that sounds to be coming from the window motor. Yes I did apply power in both directions and it did not work either way. But from most of the posts i have been reading today if the motor is no good you should be able to push the window up by hand, is that correct? Bc i cannot make that window budge. And yes all the other windows roll up and down from the main drivers door switch, so I have ruled out that switch being bad. Any ideas? Should I just get a new motor and actuator and replace it? Can I just replace the motor itself or is it all one piece? Thanks and any info/advice is much appreciated.
