:cry: My windows do not roll down on my 2000 Ford half ton. I have talked to my local ford dealer, they told me that if the relay switch clicked when I turned the key on, then the relay was bad. It clicked. I replaced the relay, but that did not solve my problem. I have also checked my fuses and they are not bad. I recently had a new transmission put in the truck, could that have done something to my windows?

Thanks for all your help

Suggested Repair

If the windows worked before the transmission replacement, inspect for a ground left loose or disconnected during that job. The relay and fuses have already been checked.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 2000 Ford half-ton says the power windows will not roll down. The relay clicked and was replaced, and the fuses are good. The expert suspects a ground was left loose when the transmission was replaced, since the problem followed that work.
