Does a 1997 F150 with power windows, locks and mirrors have a GEM? If so where's it located? Thanks

I have problems with my left window not working. Put a new master panel in and worked great for a few days. I was told the GEM regulated the left window. However I have no other electrical malfunctions besides the window. I have a different window motor but haven't tried it yet. If it is bad is there anywhere besides Ford to buy one??

Since it only works in park or neutral, check the MLP (neutral safety switch) on the side of the transmission.
