    Just bought the truck the passenger side window goes down by itself when it rains I had the window motor / regulator replaced after two weeks in rain it goes down called Kenworth they said they have never heard of it but yet they just replaced the motor. There's 500$ I'm not getting back. Any ideas?

    What about the wiring going to the switch? Wires get corroded and the moisture shorts and causes the motor to activate??

    Thanks for the reply. I will have it checked. Have you ever heard of a body ECU?

    The body ECM or computer could cause these issues.

    There are modules in both doors that control power windows/locks.[​IMG]They go bad often.

    I am having the same problem, I called Kenworth too! Lol said the same thing. Just wanted me to bring it in. The driver side window did it first and having a hard time getting the window back up. Now the passengers window went down and won't go back up. When it dries out I am hoping it will. So you say it's the module and do you replace them in both doors?

    Thank you so much! What do you think that will cost? A arm or leg or both!

    Don't remember exactly. I know at least an arm (Paccar proud of their parts) In the mid $200 range for sure. I was buying them off of ebay pretty cheap for a while when I serviced a fleet of KW fuel haulers. Got to be careful and get the exact part # that you need because most look the same.
