Ok, Im going nuts here. I wired the switch up exactly as pictured from all the DIY stuff that I printed and the only thing I can get to happen is the window goes down. Here is a pic of how they are connected.
WTF am I doing wrong. I used a test light to see where I was getting power. With the key turned and not pressing anything the green/green wire lights up. When I press the switch for the window to go down the greenblue to brown wire lights up. Nothing else lights. Ive tried switching them around a bit and got nothing one time and another time when I turned the key the window just started going up. Im confused. Hep a brotha out! Please??

The links to the wiring diagrams don't work anymore, so I can't look to see if you wired it correctly. Let me check when I get home though, I have the files on my home computer. :up:

I would appreciate it. I hooked them up according to the pics on the strictly eta tech write up. Im trying to get this done tomorrow.
yeh that write-up confused the shit outta me. heres how it should wired up
Green/Blue = Green
Black = Black
Blue/Green = Brown
Black/Yellow = The other brown
Blue = Purple
Im going to check the way i wired everything up just to be on the safe side.
I'm pretty sure this is how its supposed to be wired up.

try reversing the brown wires...and also check the fuses.
Hmm, I tried that too. I didnt get a chance to mess around with it today, but I loosely hooked up the old switch to roll up the window and it worked fine. Fuses are OK.
Is it possible the switch is fucked?
that could be a possibilty...i mean if you have everything wired up correctly and the fuse is good. lol i doubt it could be anything else but the switch then..
If anyone is interested in using the sunroof switch I just put them in. Lights up and works great.
