Auto power window problem

[Tocapet]

So my driver side power window regulator on my 2009 Expy EL XLT messed up. I purchased and installed an aftermarket regulator from Advance and installed it. Everything works fine now except for the auto up/down feature. I have tried multiple times to do the de-initialization/initialization procedure 501-11-1 (ign 5 times, down 2 sec, up 2 sec) and it stays the same. I have tried the earlier model procedure, (down button 6 times) and no help. I have tried disconnecting the battery while the glass was moving, still no difference. All fuses are good. (F1, F41 and there is no F47) I know if I call the dealer, he is gonna say I need an OEM regulator, but that can't be because there are no sensors or any connections that have to do with the windows on the regulator. Although the regulator is aftermarket, it was identical to the OEM. So here I am patiently holding down the button whenever I need to lower or raise the glass. The auto was working before the regulator messed up. So I'm appealing to you guys who may have been through the same problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I apologize for starting a new thread, but I fear that the other threads are too old for anyone to notice. I need help!!!

Most of the time it is best to start a new thread this way you will get answers specific to your year and problem

Are you certain that the wiring is the same for the new regulator

The wiring diagram for the 09 does show a fuse F47 edit F47 is a circuit breaker

sorry F47 is a circuit breaker

wiring diagram

I have the same wiring diagram. That's how I was able to find which fuses/breakers to check. But as for the question about the regulator, the only wires to the regulator itself are the speaker and the air bag sensor. There are no window wires running to the regulator. It's all in the motor, as you can see from the wiring diagram. I have the 2009/10 Ford shop manual on DVD.

since you have the DVD and that is where I get my information then you already have anything that I could provide for you. But keep the forum updated as to your results

Thanks. I'm hoping someone will chime in with a solution. I have tried everything short of pulling the door panel off again. That is my next step.

What about that diode that I see on the diagram??? Might that have something to do with it?? It seems to be mounted on the control switch.
I have a meter to test diodes with. A diode passes current in only one direction.

 

[Bedrck47]

if you are referring to the diode that is in the window adjust switch That diode is part of the circuit for the (4) LED lights in the switch assembly

Doing some reading in the manual.
Have you check all off the following fuses?

Mechanical Electrical
Window regulator assembly
Window glass
Window control switch
Battery Junction Box (BJB) fuse(s):
51 (40A)
52 (10A)
Smart Junction Box (SJB) circuit breaker 47 (30A)
Accessory delay relay
Rear window defrost relay
SJB fuse(s):
1 (30A)
4 (30A)
41 (15A)
Circuitry
Window control switch

I will check out those other fuses. Breaker #47 checks out with an ohm meter.
Glass and regulator operate smoothly. It was working up until the regulator cables got frayed and jammed the pulleys. So I replaced the regulator and used the same motor.
Everything is working, just no auto up/down.

Thanks!! I'll let you know as soon as I can check it out.

 

[Tocapet]

OK, I got to check all of those fuses today and they all check out good with the ohm meter. I also pulled the door panel and checked all of the plugs to the control switch and to the motor. All are tight. Still no auto-up/down. This is crazy. It was working before the regulator messed up. The regulator itself is all mechanical, no electrical connections at all. Everything is in the motor. It's the same motor and it has 8 wires running to it. So I'm at a complete loss here.

Same exact issue here

Tocapet- I have the exact same issue as you. I have tried the same fixes. Very frustrating! I will let you know if I find anything. Please do the same.

 

[Tocapet]

Will do!!!

 

[Expy4Me]

Will do!!!

Outcome?

Power Windows

Outcome?

The outcome is the same. I have not messed with it any more since my previous post. Just learned to hold the button down until the glass is all the way up or down. I have basically given up on trying to get the automatic working again.

I did install a new in-dash radio with GPS, Bluetooth, backup camera, DVD and CD, USB and SD card slots. And I'm in the process of converting all of the interior and exterior lights to LEDs.

Was your problem ever solve with your window?

Was your problem ever solve with your window?

No, I never got it working. Only the driver's window was supposed to be auto-up/down. I tried all kinds of suggestions on how to program it. Never worked. So I just operate it like the other 3 windows. Got used to it now and forgot about it. Now I have a different problem. I only get air through the dash A/C vents. No defrost or floor no matter how I set the controls. It's the mode door. I pulled out the little motor and the gears are stripped. And working the door manually, it only moves a few degrees. So something in there is jamming it. So I'm driving around with my heat blowing in my face.
