2012 sliding rear window won't close

[raptorman]

Help! My rear sliding window has occasionally stuck open, but after toggleing the switch a few times it has closed. Now, it won't. The interior lights dim when I hold the switch, but no movement of the glass. I checked fuse (46 I think), doesn'r appear blown. Any suggestions?

Maybe try helping it a little by just pushing on it while somebody else hits the switch

Exactly. It worked for me.

Thanks, guys. I'll try it and get back to you!

Thanks, guys. I'll try it and get back to you!

I had the same exact issue as you. I had to order a new switch. Once I got the new switch its been working flawlessly. I think I looked up the part number on rockauto and ordered it off amazon so I could get two day shipping.

Replace the switch. Mine did the same thing.

Thanks. I tried pushing while switch was pulled, no luck. Guess I'll order the new switch from Rock Auto.

BTW, just had the transmission recall done, remapped okay. Mine is a 2012, and they parked it next to a brand new Raptor. Couldn't help but notice the sticker price here in NorCal......$75,000!

Still love my truck!

^^^Holy Freaking Cow! $71K! I paid exactly $30K less than that for my 2011.

Update: took your advise, and started with the cheap fix. I got on Rock Auto, found the switch (moonroof switch actually has 3 switches including the rear window), ordered for ~$25.00, installed it upon arrival and.....it worked! Window, and case, closed! Thanks, guys!

So same thing happened to me on my 13’. Sunroof full open and tilt buttons worked fine however my rear window slider button was intermittent. Was able to find the same genuine Motorcraft switch on Amazon for $28 shipped. Watched a YouTube video and new one was installed in less then 30 minutes and that was taking my time. Works perfect again. Dealer wanted $80 for switch and 1hr of labor. If you already fixed it maybe this will help others it may happen to.
