Q: Can you tell me where to find a wiring diagram for the power windows? They all have stopped working.

asked by on July 21, 2016

The power windows have stopped working. If I open the drivers door a few inches they work. Realize this implies a broken wire in the harness going from the door to the car. Have looked and everything looks just great. Have power on a large sky blue wire to the window master switch. Trying to test the master switch. Nothing seems to happen which suggest that the ground is bad. How do I find the ground?
