In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the master power window switch on this 2004 Dodge Ram Quad Cab, same as any '02 to '08 1500, in the '09 2500 and 3500. Tools you'll need are Phillip's screwdriver and a regular screwdriver. Replacing your power window switch is pretty easy but a lot of people don't feel comfortable prying stuff up but that's all you do. Pry this up, it comes up and out and then these harness connections, they have little tabs. You press on the tab and then you've got to work the connector free. Same thing here. Then there are three screws that hold the switch to the plate.

We'll fast forward here as we remove those three screws. This switch is working fine so I'll just show you how to reinstall it. It's just a reverse. It's real easy. Just going to fast forward again as I put those screws in. I usually start all three of them first and then tighten them up one by one afterwards. Plug in your harness connections and push it back down in. There you go and that procedure's the same for the passenger's side as well.

We hope this helps you out. Brought to you by www.1AAuto.com, your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the Internet. Please feel free to call us toll free 888-844-3393. We're the company that's here for you on the Internet and in person.
