300TD Rear Passenger Window Wiring
Hi,
I am trying to get my windows working. I got my drivers side ones working, but the PS ones still don't work. I have a chilton manual, but I can't even find a mention of windows in there. I tried searching, but I can't find any description or pictures of which wires go to which terminals on the switch. The PS rear one has all the wires disconnected from the switch under the panel (my fault - I disconnected them when I was having some window strangeness in the winter), which I am thinking maybe the disconnect is affecting the front PS one as well (?). Can anyone tell me which color wires go to which contact on the rear switch? I am kicking myself for not taking note when I disconnected them. Thanks for any help

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
Four different "two tone" wires. Can anyone tell me (better yet show me a photo) where they go so I can stop blowing fuses with my poor guesses...?

It's for the 1983 300TDT but maybe it applies to yours also.

Hmm, well, sorry, your status as hero was short-lived when I discovered the wiring was different in my 81TDT from the 83.
I did manage, through my old "guess and check for sparks" method, to hook the wires to the rear PS switch "correctly enough" to get the front one working... though I discovered that when I press the switch for the rear window, it blows a fuse... well, I was on my last fuse in the box, so I stopped there for now, vowing not to touch the rear PS switch until purchasing a new box of fuses, meanwhile enjoying the spring breeze from my other three windows. Does anyone have a similar diagram for the 81?
