Hi, I have a temperamental 89 Vert, main issues are w/ windows and their alignment so the darn thing doesn't leak! My question is re: rear quarter windows, ie. I have replaced the both window motors and they worked for a while, but then when my top was being replaced, the damn shop screwed up one of my rear window switches and now rt passanger side window won't go up or down I took it apart and the motor seems to be working, but only in down direction, the thing is that the switch is all screwed up and the wires coming out of it are probably wired wrong because they fell off when I was taking the panel off and now I don't know how to put them back . There is like 5 wires running to the switch arranged in this patter ///\\ three on left side and two on the right. How are these wires routed? Can any one help maybe snap a pic or have a diagram. I have searched the forums and Chilton doesn't have this section
Thanks!!!

PS 5.0 forever, 4.6s are torqueless wonders!

why would the top shop be messing with your switches? you need to go back there and make them fix it.

I'll take a pic this afternoon. I happen to have mine torn apart currently while I replace the hydraulic cylinders.

Sorry, I went to take the pic and of course my camera batteries are dead. I'll get them charged up and will take the pic when I get home from work.

Cool chief I really appreciate your help, I feel like if I know how to wire the switch properly it will work, since it is disabled in one direction only. Plus I have ordered a new one on the way from MPS

PS I dig your avatar
