Rear crewcab door electrical problems
I remember reading a thread about this earlier but I don't seem to be able to find it using the search engine. My 95 crew cab has power windows. When I got the truck, the windows were completely inoperative. I removed the old door window motors and found they were inoperative. I installed new window motors and when connected to a battery, they run the rear windows up and down just fine. I also inspected all the wiring in the door itself and found no problems.
However, when I attempt to raise or lower the rear windows via the driver's door switches, I run into problems. Neither window will go down or up on commands. If I attempt to operate the passenger side rear window nothing happens (and no voltage gets to the motor). If I attempt to use the driver's rear window, all the lights dim and the radio shuts off for a second. No significant voltage gets to the motor in this case, nor does the window move. Also, neither rear window switch seems to be operative. This seems to indicate to me that I have a couple of cuts and a short somewhere. I had read that this was a common problem with crew cabs and that there was a point in the harness after it had entered the cab from the door where this commonly happened. Where is this point, and how do I get access to it? Any other tips would be appreciated. |
Yes, where the harness goes from the cab to the door, the wires break from bending at such a hard angle

So how does one access the wiring to make repairs?

Unplug the harness from the cab and the door. The repair the wire where it does not bend

This looks like the wiring is at or below floor level - do I get to the wiring from under the cab or by taking off interior panels?

Inside the cab you have to pull the panel loose
