Front passenger window motor

[D Fresh]

I don't think it's unique to the ranger, but it is worse than in other vehicles I have owned. I remember seeing people mention it in reviews I watched before purchase. Also fwiw I just tested and the passenger window in my toyota work van is a good bit faster than the driver's side.

I'll look, but I've haven't raced windows since I was a young new driver

Proace?

Maybe because it's a global design sold mostly in RHD countries it's reversed?

i dicked around with mine yesterday. only two at a time because a) i dont want to blow a fuse trying all 4 at once. b) i dont have enough finger control to work 4 buttons simultaneously.
i found both fronts worked same speed, as well as both rears.
i didnt check front vs rear though.

Don't worry about the fuse. I roll all 4 up at the same time all the time. But that's because I installed the module for one-touch windows... I just hate how awkward the location is, and how you have to hold all 4.

I might be overthinking this, but I’d rather catch this while still under warranty. Has anyone noticed if any of their windows are noticeably slower opening or closing? For me, my passenger front window moves slower in both directions. Is this normal, or starting signs of the motor giving out? Thanks for the help.

I have the same issue, but when it's cold out the passenger front window strains to roll the window up. My local Ford dealer replaced it under warranty, but new regulator is still straining. There could be a possibility the right side regulator is a cheaper motor, with Ford engineers thinking it isn't used as much as the drivers window, so they might have downsized the power to save a few bucks.?

By how it acts I'm thinking that it's something to do with the wiring. On it's own the window roll up/down speed is ok. Not great.. Add a second window to the power draw and the front passenger window slows to an absolute crawl.
