Your not charging, and it sounds like you have a rather large draw.

SOURCE: my ford 2005 explorer sport trac the windows don't work.

You may want to check the relay that goes to the primary window. This will provide support to all the other windows. However, it may not just be the window relay, it could possibly be that between your window relay and your main switch there is a short or cut wire that is causing this problem. Unfortunately, you may need to visit your Ford Dealership to run a diagnostic on your wire or if you know an electronic shop that can run one to see if it is receiving and sending power. Have them check the main door fuse and window assembly to see that you are getting power.

Look in the owners manual and see if they have a circuit breaker or relay instead of a fuse. It could be bad and you would not see it.

Where's starter located on 2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac 4x4 it started fine ran to store wouldn't crank it clicked but even with jump it wouldn't start

I would start with the battery first. If your battery lost 1 or 2 cells in it, jumping doesn't help. It's like try to jump a totally dead battery, you have to let it charge up some before it will crank over. Except with a dead cell, it never charges up.

My 2004 ford explorer sport trac won't turn over and on the display it show bunch of dashes and says check gauges when i turn on the key

sounds like a dead battery , try a jump start ,if it starts have the alternator charge rate checked as if low may have been the cause of the battery going flat, then recharge the battery with a drive of about 20 miles

Truck want start up without an jump

Sounds like a dead battery. You need the battery to start the car, but once it is running the engine runs completely off of the alternator (which also recharges the battery if the battery is still good).
