power window swap
 

do you think it is possable to swap power windows out of a 98 f150 xcab xlt to a 98 f150 reg cab XL? is the wire for the windows and locks ran by there own harness or does it tie in to the main ? does any one have a pic of where the door harness plugs in to the main harness or if it does or confirm it part of the main harnes and does not unplug

Just completed the conversion for my 2003 F150, using A1 Electric Power windows. There were no pre-installed wires. I bought wiring harness (2000 F150) with connectors from eBay and used that as a basis for wiring. Still had to add bunch of more wires. I also bought new door panels from eBay; wrapped real leather to armrest and the panel above it.

(I've earlier converted all "dark gray" plastic parts to "light gray", so the new door panels complete the interior)

i pulled the whole harness from the driver door to the plug on the driver kick panel then up behind the dash to the other kick panel then to the left door and i pluged the harnes in to my truck to see if my truck would power the locks but nothing work but i did not have it fully intalled i just had the door lock actuaters on the seats do they ned to be grounded to the door? The door switches on do i have to have it all plugged in. I have power to the main switch Attachment 25426
Attachment 25427

guys i need some help with this swap i dont think my truck has a G.E.M so the power mirrors and windows dont work but the door locks do when the harness is plugged in to my truck. is it possable to go around the G.E.M By just supplying switched 12v power to the window switch

Sent you PM with some info. I hope that will give you some ideas.

any one got a Power mirror wire schematic?

so i got all the parts in the doors and the panels on just have to run the wires in the door and along the fire wall and plug it all in then my xl will have power windows mirrors and locks

and thanks to the guys that send wire schematic

Im trying to do this swap too, l got everything already oem doors with power windows and need help wiring them up. Could yall pm me a wire schematic or some info?

hey were you able to get your power windows to work??
mom currently trying to do the same thing

that was posted that back in 2012, hopefully he/she/it will respond 9 years later...

hey I was wondering how you made it all work I know it’s been long since this posts was up I’m trying to attempt this on my truck but can’t get it to work I have all oem parts just don’t know how to wire it

Paying attention isn’t your strong point is it???

Yes I was able to get all the power to work I used the factory door harness which runs behind the dash and plugs into the factory harness and the power locks work but had to add in 2 relays to power the 1 to power the windows and 1to power the mirrors but they all worked except the auto down. I sold the truck 5 years ago or i would show you how I did it I believe I just had to feed the main power to the driver door switch for the windows to work and feed power to the mirror switch. You should be able to find what wire is what on a wire diagram. Good luck I loved mine after I got it to work miss that old truck
