window regulator problem 85 300D
Hi guys-
I've been working a couple of weekends trying to solve the problem of my rear window (driver's side) not responding to the rocker switch either on the console or on the door. I have checked the window with a separate and direct power source and it works fine. I have checked the wires from the motor to the switch in the console with a continuity tester and there are no breaks in the wires. When I finally gave up I had it so the window would go down only and only using the rocker switch on the door.
Initially I discovered two broken wires which broke at the rubber boot that goes through the door into the center pillar. I solder these and the window worked until I put everything back together again. When it didn't work when I put it all back together again, I figured I broke the wires while re-threading them through the center pillar and back into the door to the rocker switch and motor. But, as I said, I checked the wires with a continuity tester and there are no breaks. I have taken apart and cleaned all the rocker switches. How do I trouble shoot this to figure out what's wrong?
