Default Passengers cant control windows not matter what

All the passengers are unable to operate there windows from there controls no matter if control is locked or unlocked but I can control them. I'm guessing a bad control on the drivers side anyone else run into this? I've checked all the plug and they are connected.

Take the switch panel apart. You will likely find that switch has black on the contacts. Clean the contacts well, reassemble and it will it will be good to go for a while.

Contacts arching and blackening the contacts is a known issue on the F150s.

Clean all contacts while you have it apart.

Bad drivers side master switch, clean the contacts and you should be good. Be careful with the window lock part of the switch.

Yep yep and yep. Also could be a broken wire in the boot from the cab to door on the driver side door.

mine is kind of like that but I can't control the passenger only will let me roll up from the drivers side and my back passenger will sometimes work.

Pull the master switch out of the driver door arm rest, flip it over, grip each individual wire firmly and shove it into its place inside the plug tightly. They like to loosen up.

Wow so you pulled back the black boot and inspected all the wires for any that had cracked insulation or breaks? It took me a good hour to take the switch apart and clean all the contacts. Hope the new switch works.
