Power Window Problem

Featured Replies

So I was taking off my dr. side door panel and two of my wires came off the switches on the window control and I thought I got them back on the right terminals but when I hit the down, I heard a click over by the passenger seat. So I took out the pass. seat and pulled out the bosch relay and tested it by doing the click method, and I couldn't get it to click.

So I grabbed a new one I had in my tool box and click tested it on the battery, it worked. Put it in and still nothing.

Is there another fuse? I checked all the fuses in the panel and they are good. There is another plug that plugs into a black box that says power window relay unit, can that go bad? 

 

Ideas? I am frustrated. 

Are you getting any voltage to the window motor? If so does the voltage across the motor change when you actuate the switch?

So I checked and no, no reading at the motor when I actuate the switch. I even looked up the manual and checked me hooking up the relay and I had the wires different, hooked up according to the manual and still nothing. The manual shows a breaker. Where is that? Did that blow?

U know sometimes these cars drive me to want to have a couple of drinks. It is like a love hate relationship but I love her to much to shoot her. So, I stopped for a second after it bothering me all day as I walked by her and then it hit me. Wait, GD said "do you have voltage at the motor" and then I said, wait, where is my source. Then I checked at the battery and I had installed a blade fuse and it was blown. Replaced it and the windows works. AHHHHHHHHHHH. Now it is time for a drink.  :drunk:  :horse:
