The multimeter showed no continuity on all three combinations in your last post.

Okay, the problem is two of your ground wires have become disconnected. You are going to have to pull the master switch on the drivers side, and unplug the switch itself from the harness, and test each of the black wires for continuity with ground. The ones that don't have continuity, need to, so you can rig it in the mean time, but you need to trace those wires and see where they became disconnected.

Take care,

Could you post the schematic for the power windows if you have it. If i grounded the neg side of a car battery to the door, which wire\s should i hook the pos up to, to get the window up?

Just like I said before:

Quote:

Okay, the red/yellow wire is to make the window go up. Applying a pos 12 wire to it, and a neg wire to the yellow/red wire should make it go up. I'm looking at a factory wiring schematic now

Remove the switch on the passenger side, and do it directly to the wires.

Take care,
~Chris

My problem was that I had no idea how power windows were wired. I found a schematic that included the power window wiring in one of my books. It took me about 20 mins, but i finally got it working last night.

Thanks for the help PKRWUD.
