    For g' sake don't replace the GEM module until you self test the system, I doubt it is at fault. Have you self tested the GEM???

On my 2001 kia sportage the back two windows won't go down and the right front window is stuck halfway up

make sure power windows lock out switch on driver side not on position, that will cause power windows not work or you have faulty power window relay.

No power to windows on 2001 ford explorer sport trac

Power loss to the master switch somewhere. I just fixed mine (97 Ford) by bypassing power source from the ignition switch and replacing it with the one running the mirrors. Works fine.

What is the fuse number for the power windows on a 2001 Ford Explorer?

The power windows are not directly fused, the power for the windows comes from a central control module called the "GEM", when you touch the window button the signal is sent to the GEM and it rolls the window down for you, it is a computer and it controls all the body electrical functions. This module can be tested and will return fault codes for what it finds lacking in the systems it tests, so what must be done now is to have the GEM tested for faults.

My driver side window on my 2001 ford explorer wont go up but it will go down. How can I know whether its a fuse, motor, or regulator...

If the window goes down , you have power, you need to check the switch first then test the window motor for proper operation
