Electric window looms - HELP!

Recommended Posts

hey all,

 

upon fitting a new door i got hacked of and cut the loom without labelling up - yes, idiot i know - but it's done now and i'm stuck with it.

 

unfortunately i now have to re-wire the switches and i have no idea what i am doing.

 

it's the driver door, and the loom has 7 wires to attach to 2 switches (drivers window and passenger window).

4 of the wires are all together, a red, a green, a black and a red-blue. now i'm assuming these wire up to the driver switch as this is what is happening on the passenger side. and then there are 2 blue-black wires from the switch that go to the motor, so i'm ok with that (unless this is wrong?)

 

but now i only have 3 wires to attach to the 6 pins on the passenger switch....

 

i have a red, a red-blue and a brown wire. if the brown goes to one of the switch earths, the red to the red switch and the red-blue to the switch red-blue then i am left with no wires and 3 more switch pins to connect.

 

so i'm happy with all that - is that right/

 

 

now gets to the tricky bit for me. the passenger switch has 3 pins left to connect: 1 brown, 2 blue-black.

the loom also has 3 looped wires. these look as though they came from one switch and bridged to the other. these are 1 brown, 1 red, 1 red-blue.

my thoughts are that the brown connects the brown from the passenger switch to the corresponding brown on the drivers switch.

 

yes? no?

 

 

so i'd be left with 2 blue-black and the 2 loops of wire. if i connect the blue-black to the red loop and piggyback onto the same red on the drivers switch will this be ok?

 

i know this is a lot to think of without a pic, but i'll try to get one done on paint!

right, pics lol

 

this is how the loom is set up - the loops don't go back through the door, they appear to go from switch to switch (?)

this is the switch set up on the drivers door

and this is how i think it should be wired up. the purple lines are where i will make a connection

right i've got a bit further. all the power comes through thre driver switch in the driver door, so i have piggybacked the earth (brown), illumination (red/blue) and live (red) between switches, and hooked up the passenger loom as it is in the passenger door. but now i am left with 2 switch output wires that would normally go to the motor, unfortunately, the passenger motor is in the passenger door!! lol

 

any ideas?
