How would a repair be made on a 1998 Lincoln Town Car front power window if the window does not move and a motor cannot be heard spinning?

Answer 1

Check fuses, switch, and if they are ok, then it is probably the window regulator's motor that has quit. You may want to go to a car parts store, and get a repair manual for your car. They cost about $16.00 Or, go to a Public Library.

1- check the fuses going to the power windows 2- the switches may be corroded and may need to get some contact renew spray on them. 3- there may be a physical jam on the window mechanism that prevent the movement of the windows 4- the motot also has a ttemperature cutout built in that may not be working --- try leaving the ignition OFF for a while then put the key into the mode that normally enables the windows to work then try immediately to open/close the window and listen if you hear any sounds.

- re-check all the fuses and relays

SOMETIMES U can SMACK the INSIDE of the door Panel where the motor is while holding the switch,IF that does't work then U probably JUST need a gears kit 4 the window motor.Most parts stores carry the gear kit 4 ford prodcts
