The driver’s side window is inoperable. Depressing "Down" does
activate the One Touch Window Down Relay. The motor works when power
is applied directly. All relays (One Touch relay and Accessary Delay
Relay)check OK by Ohm Meter and by swapping. All other windows
operate normally.

Any suggestions??

Probably the switch, remember you must have a ground and positive, and the
ground and positive switch places depending on if the window is going up or
down.....most likely the switch because the others work and the motor works.

Thanks for your suggestions. I had checked the switch using an Ohm
meter and I swapped the switch with one from a junk yard.

Some other items, that may not be related:

I get a code P1633, Keep Alive Power Voltage Too Low. This may have
been a result of disconnecting the battery while I was troubleshooting
for the window.

Also, the Driver’s side mirror does not control Up/Down, just left to
right.

Does anyone have a schematic for a 2002 Taurus??

Any more suggestions on troubleshooting??

You have a meter. So probe the motor connector ref to ground.

If there's 12v on it, whichever way you actuate, then there's probably
also 12 on the other lead, same thing.

Which would indicate ground isnt being switched into the circuit.

To prove, find the 12v supply lead into the assy and do the same test on
the motor conn pins, you probably will see nothing on either pin when you
push the switch.
OR ViceVersa in case of positive not being switched in.

Then unfortunately you have to trace back. I suggest looking close at
all harness and ground connections as well as the switch block. Is the
mirror sw on the same sw block, for example.

Thanks Much

Does anyone have a schematic they can email me?? (2002 Taurus).

The Trouble Code did clear so that is not part of my peoblem.

Found the problem!!! It was a solder joint that let go in the fuse
panel in the foot well of the driver’s seat. Specifically, the
"shunt resistor" for the driver’s side window circuit had a bad
connection where it was s0oldered on the printed circuit board within
the fuse panel. I had to totally remove the fuse panel and remove all
the fuses, relays, and the GEM module than pry open the fuse
compartment. The shunt resistor is located at the top of the circuit
board and is orange. Resoldered and the window works fine.

Note: Most of the wiring/relays/etc from 2000 to at least 2002 appear
to be similar. I used a 2001 schematic for troubleshooting.

Thanks to all those who helped.
