Re: Power Windows just quit
I don't recall ever running into relays on them either, but the wiring on these confuses most people quickly.
They have a "Double Pole Double Throw" (DPDT) switch and the motor is isolated from ground. When you push the switch one way it gives the motor power and ground, to run one direction. When you pull the switch the other way it is just the opposite. It sends the power to the terminal on the motor that got ground before, and power to the one that was grounded before. The necessary ground is actually at the switch.
