None of the windows work ?

When you turn the key from run to off, prior to opening the door does the radio work ( checking accessory delay relay operation ).

If you check for power at the connector for the switch, is there power on the Light Blue w/ black stripe wire ?

Do the power mirrors still work ?

Next would be to pull the door panel ( use the directions for the Muth Signal mirrors on their web site for directions on taking the door panel off ) and apply power directly to the pigtail on the power window motor. one direction is up, reverse polarity is down.

yes none of the windows work as well at the powerlock on the driver side and the power mirrors dont work, and the radio will not turn off until the passenger side door is opened

check for a good ground going to the door. had the same issues with girlfriends 05 explorer. power windows did work tho. no power door locks on d/s only and no power mirrors. ended up being a severed wire in the door jam

Thank you for ALL the symptoms.

This is more along the lines of the corroded splice in the driver's side sill
https://www.f150online.com/forums/el...door-open.html

or The topic Stu486 posted about.
F150 is more common for the door sill splice, but that does not mean it is always the splice issue causing the symptom.
Stu486 has a thread he started that has the info on the symptoms he had.
