97 crew cab window problems

I have a 1997 F-350 PSD, 4x4, manual, 4 door. Ever since I bought the truck back in 2002 the back windows never worked, then the truck sat for a couple years only driving it on and off. Is there anything you would recomend checking with this problem? I replaced the rear driver side motor but still nothing. A friend of mine also helped me try and trace down electrical problems but we didnt find anything wrong. Any info would be great. Thanks a lot

You might want to start a new thread for this one. But to your question in the drivers door jam all wires run through there and wires have a tendicy to brake over time,even when looking fine. I had problems in there and that was the problem. That is the most frequently used door and flexing wires over time break.

the wires for the door should be in the rocker pannel channel on the drivers side.
The wires should go behind the seat under the carpet to the pass side, or behind the rear seats.

Going by memory on this having no expereince on it.

Fuel man has a good response as well.
I would start a thread for it.
