Anyone having issues with the driver window control panel not actually controlling anything? Not getting any lights on that panel or any control over any of the windows.

sounds like a connector isn't plug in tight or something

So weird... Turned the car off fully and then back on, and now it's all working again! It was bizarre as the backlight of the buttons still were lit even when it lost ability to control anything.

Just happened today. Appointment next week. I hate the thought of driving something else.

Definitely let us know what they say it turns out being! I never did figure out the root cause unfortunately.

Thank You Mach E Forum

Mach-E Select built 7/2021
pulled in my garage this afternoon
and no window control, nw mirror control

Figured out that everything was working but the controls buttons on Driver's door

Called Dealer - They No Nothing total" Sgt Schultz"

Then I googled a bit and saw your posts

Waited a couple of hours went back to the car and everything working again ?

So thank you for posting although I am afraid I have nothing to ADD as far as WTF is going ON. I thought perhaps a blown fuse, but fuses do not self-heal

I am baffled

Glad to hear the ghost in the machine worked itself out! Outside of that one time, I've never had the issue again so ?‍♂

It is a bug. Happened to me a few weekends ago. I blame it on the updates only because I never had that issue before and then experience it after the update. Don't really know for certain though. Only happened to me the one time. Been fine since.

Super weird.

Thanks

I have had one success "in a row" . . .
I sure don't like it when a Reboot of a Computer fixes something. This sure does feel like a code bug but of course since FORD will not allow us to know what code version is on our cars we are quite blind Grrrrr
