    Power Windows = Fubared.

    So i decided it would be a nice cheap mod to paint my door panels black. All was well with the car before this. I remove the 3 door panels fine then get to the back right to find the window switch harness is gone and spade connectors have been pressed on which have corodded heavlily. I have to rip half the spade connectors apart and end up gettting two permenately stuck on the window switch. I have an extra and throw it on there after putting in new spade connectors. Well i put all the door panels back on to find the power windows are dead. None of them are getting power anywhere.

    -So i troubleshoot the circuit breaker switch. It works fine, i even bridged the connection with a short wire just to make sure.
    -The fuse is not blown or blowing out
    -The hot lead on the circuit breaker switch is getting power and i can complete that circuit easily there but none of the switches are getting power

    any ideas?!!!

    Ok....

    1. Power at the breaker... correct?
    2. Check for power at terminal 3 on the LHF and RHF window switches.

      There was no power at terminal 3. So i wired a wire from the hot side of the breaker to terminal 3 and they all work now. :D
