1985 Ford Bronco Malfunction - Windows & Glass


Question: Help! I have an '85 Bronco that has no working windows. After buying the truck, the passenger window stopped working, had to bang with hammer on motor just to get window closed. Now driver window won't work either. Back window was rigged but wires tangled underneath. No windows working. Any suggestions? Is it possible to replace electric windows with manual cranks. Can back window be fixed? Have dad who can follows directions...Appreciate any help. Tammy

Technican: Tammy, to answer your questions. The electric windows have one of 3 items that fail. The switch, dealership item, low failure rate. The motor, available thru most auto parts dealers as a special order item, requires removing the door panel and about 2/3 of the way down and forward of the middle is a spot with 3 dimples. These 3 dimples need to be drilled out so you can gain access to the window motor bolts or you have three very large pop rivets to drill out. either way not a difficult job. Third and most common, the window regulator, also a special order item fromthe parts house, this normally has 2 bolts at the top and 2 at the bottom. To identify which is bad, remove the door skin and unplug the electric wires to the window motor. with the key on, check for voltage. If you have voltage, the switch is good and most likely the motor is bad. If you have the motor making some noise the switch and motor are good and the regulator is bad. Before starting this.... check your fuses. Let me know if I can be more help.
