Re: power window help

probally can get a pigtail from the bone yard... I plan to create a harness for my factory power windows... I dont like all those amps going through that switch.... over time those arcs will cause the switch to fail or have "dead spots" on it... with a relay, its designed to take abuse and they are only about 2 bucks for th relay, vs 25 for the switch. take the blue twist nut off and clean those contacts, do one at a time or disconnect the battery. that should help

Re: power window help

Willing to get salvaged and splice it in? Try car-part.com and see if any salvages show a door loom. You might be able to get them to just sell you the connector and a short pigtail, chances are they'll want to sell the entire door loom. Still I'd think for $25 you could get that.
