Default Driver Side Power Window Switch

I have a 2007 F150 Super Crew and only have around 35K miles on it. For some reason my driver side window switch does not roll the windows up all the time. Rolling down is no problem, however, rolling up always seems to be a problem. I have to press the switch 3 or 4 or maybe even 5 times till it rools up. I know I still have the warranty on my truck but not sure if something such as this would be covered. Does anyone know what the cause of this would be? Any help I greatly appreciate.

Ditto - just had mine changed out under warranty about 10 days ago

If they are under warrenty then have them changed out. If not, the switch just needs a cleaning. Search this formum and you will find the step by step proceedure on how to remove and clean the switch. The switch will probably work 100% after the cleaning.

Hey Neil, I have the same problem. Or had, I replaced the master switch assembly on the drivers side, ouch, yes its expensive...sooo...if ya can get it done under warranty, pls do so. I also replaced the passengers side switch as it was having the same problem. However this did not fix the problem entirely. I think that its a dirty contact on a relay somewhere under the dash....

if you attempt to fix it yourself while still under warranty they may not cover the repair. They will see its been messed with and come up with an excuse not to cover it. USE YOUR WARRANTY!!!!!
