I have a 1992 Ford f150 XLT, I am guessing the window motor has went bad on the passenger side because the switch on the driver nor the passenger side will roll the window up or down. Does this sound like the motor? If so is it an easy to do repair for my self? Does anyone have a diagram?

Thank you,
Wes

Different looking thing and haven't done one on the trucks of the vintage yet. Should look like this and may be "rivet city" to replace.

A simple test is to see if the motor is taking any current/amps at all with ign turned to enable windows but engine off. Look at the dome light (can watch a voltmeter too but this is easy) while requesting up and down for that window. It will dim or flicker if current is getting to motor - check both up and down requests.

If no change more testing needed. You should get inside and test motor while installed before you blame it. Basic electrical test for switches is that polarity is reversed for up and down request, respectively.

Let some testing begin,

Looks like this in a parts look up..........
