There are many reasons that this could happen.

If the you don't hear the motor when you press the switch, the problem is electrical and you need to troubleshoot the fuse. wiring, switch.

If the motor does run then the most likely cause is that the small plastic gears inside the window motor are worn and need replacing. This is fairly simple if you have some mechanical ability. Complete motors or the gear repair kits are available at most parts houses, and repair kits are very inexpensive on eBay.

If the motor runs a little and stops then your likely cause is in the mechanical window regulator that actually moves the window. That is more work to replace than the motor but the parts are still very common and not overly expensive. This is still simple enough that it can be done by many backyard mechanics.

You can find much more information on the some of the Explorer enthusiast websites. Many Explorer owners have already done this very successfully.

Why wont the Passenger side window go down on a 2004 Ford Freestar?

The passenger side window on a 2004 Ford Freestar may not go down due to a faulty power window switch, a blown fuse, or a malfunctioning window motor. Additionally, there could be an issue with the wiring or connections in the window system. It's advisable to check the fuse first, and if that's fine, inspect the switch and motor for any signs of failure.
