Power window woes

Does anyone have a schematic of the power window wiring for a crew cab? My right rear window is having issues. I can make it go down but not up. If I jump 2 wires at the back switch I can make it work from the back switch only. So my guess is I have an issue along the way. The drivers switch has continuity everywhere it is supposed to so I am assuming it is good.

Check the wiring where it comes out of the cab and goes into the door. They sometimes break there. That would be the first place I'd look.

I have a similar issue with both Windows, except when I try to roll down the drivers side rear window my stereo turns off

bill's got it. i put power doors into my non-power XL truck during my rebuild. the two "lightly used" power doors i bought both had the same problem in their wiring harness: space is pretty tight between the where the wires come out of the door and into the truck at the B-pillar. the wires get bent tight and chafe on the front door (i think).

anyway, both of my used doors had explosed wires through the outside of the harness. problem is, its a real bitch to get at that harness. best way is to pull the bottom trim piece off the B-pillar. i believe the connector lives in there. you can then push the harness out from the inside to inspect with the rear door open. there's not much room there, but just enough for a few fingers and roll of electrical tape :-)
