2000 E350 7.3- power windows stopped working...

Tried a new circuit breaker fuse for the power windows with no luck. Window motors were strong before, so i dont think its that.

I saw online the ground wire is short length from factory and gets stretched and breaks somewhere. Accessing it doesnt look fun lol. (remove parking brake amongst other things im sure)

To make it better, it happened soon after i quick spliced the alternator wire at the ignition switch for the trigger wire for my 40A renogy charger.. (its fused with a 10a and didnt blow, and no other fuses are blown in the fuse panel inside at least.

Any other idears? before i start trying to chase this ground wire. lol.

I got it. There was a piece of thing and a lady bug in between one of the pins inside the plug blocking connection? I dont fckn know. lol. But them ****s were still plugged in good, b/c i had to use little tool to unplug them. Well i guess i must of just moved the plug a bit and somehow it lost connection. Anyway, so i cleaned off 2 things (inside the plug and re plugged em in and BLAMO. lol.

Just had to remove the hood pull latch those 2 little 7mm bolts so i could get those plugs unclipped from frame and give me some working room.

SMH. lol.
