      there's a video on how to reset that somewhere. I had a 2016 that had the same problem. I think you hold it down for 15 seconds hold it up for 15 seconds and then it resets itself and it should work.

    Just wanted to chime in with a Thank you! Your video was very informative, and it worked. However when putting it back together I somehow managed to pop out the internals of the switch and had a little spring and a little plastic piece come flying out. But I kept at it and figured out how it all went back together and it's working great now. Keep up the good work. Take care.

    Great video! The only thing I would suggest is not to use dielectric grease in connectors. Use electric grease instead. Dielectric grease is used as an insulator, not ideal for metal on metal electrical connections. Use dielectric only on the porcelain part of your spark plugs to prevent carbon tracking and ease of removal of boots in the future.

    Great video. I have a 2017 Ram Big Horn 1500 and lights for the mirror adjustment on the door panel don’t light up. I bought the truck used so I don't know if they are supposed to light up or not. I saw a previous reply to a similar question regarding replacing the bulbs and you said they are in the circuit board. I went to the dealer and they said they are not supposed to light up. I can't believe they would not have them light up because you can't adjust your mirrors at night if they don't without opening the door or blindly feeling for them. The letters around the key fob insert don't light up and another switch on the dash doesn't either. Do you know the answer?

      Thank you, for a temporary fix to JUST get the window back up you can energize the window regulator motor by using a jump pack with alligator clips and wire and connect the clips to where the plug plugs into the motor. and that should make the motor spin.

I actually had to take it apart and carefully put it back together and now it works perfectly. So the corrosion WAS the original problem which was fixed with the electrical cleaner and q-tip method. If your still having trouble with the spring and the little plastic piece let me know and I'll post a video on how to reinstall those. Good luck to you.

    Thank you so much for making this video ! Just finished doing mine and it’s been broken for like 2 months! So annoying! Did exactly what you did and the window switch is working perfectly! For some reason it didn’t fix the lock and unlock button ? Do you have any suggestions for that ? I’m just happy the windows are working again that was my main concern ! So thanks again just started subscribing to your channel too !

      I had to lay mine in the unit first then place the circuit board ontop of it. Just make sure you line everything up correctly and it should screw down nicely.

    I have a 2014 Ram Laramie 2500 and lights for the mirror adjustment on the door panel don’t light up anymore on those switches. Did you see bulbs in there that are replaceable or is that somehow part of the circuit board?
