Electrical issue

I have an issue, i have a 1998 F150 supercab, i had a rear window water leak. I have a window shop pull the window and bezel and reseal the leak. The shop put down the windows half way, then went about he repair. After the repair, the power windows, dome and fog light do not work. Windows are still down half way. I checked every fuse, swapped relays and then put in a refurbished GEM module. I still have the same issues. It all goes back to the rear window repair. Any advise?

The shop left something unplugged in the B pillar or somewhere else?
You need an EVTM for your truck that has wiring diagrams and splice / connector locations
That EVTM will tell you which B pillar to check
Could be anywhere, the front, kick panel, A pillar etc.
Good luck

Electrical issue solved

Found the issue. Retested all of the fuses, still all good. I decided to replace them. The 30A fuse under the hood was bad, even though it tested good. When power went to it, the fuse opened. I could reproduce the issue..
Made me crazy----crazier.. Fuses are cheap, not my time.
