Problem with new doors
The doors on my truck would not open from inside or outside so I got new doors from another truck. I installed them yesterday and for the power windows on these new doors have a wire harness with a 8 point plug which plugs in under the dash. My problem is that my old doors only has a wire harness that do not have a plug. Does anyone know how I could rig this so the windows work? As of right now the passenger side window is half down and I can't get it up and it's snowing out where I live. Thanks.

Pull all the wiring harness, switches and all, out of your old doors, and put it in the new doors. I've done this before because I couldn't find anywhere to unplug the driver's side door harness from the truck. So I pulled all the wiring out of the door, took the door off, mounted the new door and fed the wire harness back in the new door.

Some of the wires are the same colors and the rest are not. The new door I put on is from a truck one year newer than my truck. I put the wire harness from through the new doors already. I was able to hot wire the passenger window to get it up. I am still not sure which wires to splice together that are not the same colors.
