looking for pinout for 2004+ window switches

My passenger window won't move up or down. I tested the window actuator, and when I apply power directly to it with test leads, it'll move the window up and down, so I think I've isolated that the window actuator isn't the problem. I tried switching the passenger switch with a known good switch from the rear doors, and that didn't fix it.

I then cleaned, and when that didn't help, replaced the drivers side switch block. That didn't help either.

So now I'm down to testing the wiring, and I can't find any pinouts for the plug connectors so I can test that the current is getting to where it needs to go.

Does anyone have the pinout diagrams? thanks.

thanks. I'm assuming I have to jumper the driver's side passenger and passenger side switches to test the passenger side. Is the LB-BK wire the hot power wire?

You will need the driver's side switch installed, to get power and ground on the contacts at the passenger side switch.

that would be test #1, is there power & ground to the other window switch from the master switch.

I verified that there's power and ground going to the passenger side switch, and power and ground is coming out of the passenger switch on the yel-red and red-yel wires that run to the motor. Guess I'll be pulling the door apart again to see where the fault is.

Did you do the test with the doors open or closed ?

If there is an issue on either door, in the rubber boot to a pillar, it might not show up if the door is open, where when it is closed it does.

I tested last night with doors closed. I'll try it with doors open before I start pulling the doors apart.

Ok, so power and ground are going to the plug that connects to the window actuator, but wasn't getting past the female side of the plug connection. I took a chance, cut the plug off, and made a new connector using 1/8 blade connectors and the window works fine now.

thanks for your help!

Don't thank me, thank yourself.

You did all the heavy lifting and diagnoses.

All I did was type 20 words, and click a few times
