Default Window wiring help

So here's my situation. My 98 xj's passenger side door window does not work from either the switch on the drivers side or the passenger side. That leads me to believe it's a wiring issue and that the switch itself is more than likely fine. I'd like to know the best way to go about diagnosing and figuring out which part of the wiring of this switch is bad. Anyone know a good place to start and where to go from there? Thanks in advance.

I'd check to see if you have power/ground at your window motor first. If you have power/ground there, then you know all the wiring and switches are good, and its the motor thats bad.

If there is power there, check the output of the pass switch while you have to door panel off. then keep going from there

Do you have a wiring diagram?

Nope I don't have a wire diagram. That would be really helpful though. Would you happen to have one?

I have a Factory service manual for my 99, but have no way of scanning it,...
