Power Window Motor Hotwire
Hi, my first post here. First off thank you all!! I've been reading these forums for a few years and you guys are really informational.
On to my problem,
I'm looking for a way to independently operate my drivers door power window..
currently i'm on a 92 dx sedan with all manual windows, i decided to blow a brake line getting off the highway because i felt like smashing my car into a yield sign. luckily the only damage (except a dented 17" wheel) was to my drivers door, so i go back out to the junk yard and their were no 4-door manual window donors out there so wanting a window again i grabbed a power door and left. have it all on my car now, i just can't figure out how to hotwire my window.
right off the window motor is 4 wires... blk, blu, red-yellow, red-blue. i'm in my haynes book looking at the wiring diagram it shows the 2 red wires go to the switch one up one down, blu goes to window ctrl unit, blk obviously off to a ground some where.
using a working 12v source i thought ground the ground and then just power one of the 2 red wires and boom i'm operating my window but of course that doesn't work.... Any ideas on how i can just make this window move???
