Rep Power: 291

Need a bit of quick help, Driver side window is dying, need to diagnose to see if it's the motor or my switch that's dying before purchasing the motor.

Anyways, I thought I saw a wiring guide not too long ago, but for the love of me, I can't find it

I just need to know which wires are for up/down for window so i can use a paper clip to test

The pic I took is too big for imageshack and photobucket will kill the resolution.

Here's the next best thing

TBQH....
I seriously cant tell :P

I'm guessing its
Red/Yel for up
Red/Black for down, and orange for ground??

thats why I uploaded the pic

edit: @what you thing the wires are: yea, that's what I'm guessing after looking at the drawing a little more

Its from the back of a Haynes manual

you could always take the switch assembly apart and trace the circuits.

Well, after taking it apart, I guess i learned jack squat


I'll prolly wing it and make a guess, just like defusing a bomb right?
Worse comes to worse, i'll prolly pop a fuse or break something that's already been broken =/

Try 12volt car to find what your looking for I always do

the little grey tab is the driver window switch. flip it over, you may be able to trace some of it out.

I would apply power direct to the motor (disconnected from circuit) RED/BLK & RED/YEL.

I had some large guage zip cord and ran it from the battery direct when I had problems with my window.

Screw it, I couldnt figure it out, I'm guessing by the diagram, I had to ground it somehow...

Anyways, I cleaned contacts, no signs of any burns anywhere. Plugged it back in, and motor sounds like it's sputtering its last revolutions.

Will order new motor and call it a day.

wow...If Josh had posted the rest of the haynes manual, would have saved me so much trouble :X

I'm getting faster. It took me 4 minutes to get the door apart, 10 minutes to pop the rod (from the other thread)grrrr... and 6 minutes to get it back together. lol

Same price as the manual for only my model years (2001-02). Got it at helm.com. As you can see, well thumbed. Taped the cover on 3 times now. lol.

Lol, I am like the door panel master now, takes me 5 minutes to take it off and put it back on

But I just seriously CBA'd , too much effort :P

FYI- You can do it even faster with an electric screwdriver.

That didn't sound real good.

LOL
Oh really now?

you can get it off faster with something that runs off of batteries
