Right now my back is thrown out, so i do not feel like picking through all my door wires and putting the quick connectors on so that I can operate the window switches again. My doors just went back on (ref: back issue lol) and the windows are down. I need to roll them up,

So is there a way i have mess with my extra battery and the window switch plug to get the windows up?

got the driver side up, but the passenger front and driver rear won't activate. Both work fine, so i know the motor is not getting the signal. Do the switch plugs on those doors rely on a signal from the main driver panel?

lets see if I can remember how I did. if u put power to one wire and ground to the other, right to the window motor, it will go up or down, If it goes down switch the wires, and put positive to oppisite then b4 same with negative, and it will go up. Hope that makes sense

And I am sure ur prob is broken wires in the door.

None of the wires in the door are broken, i just can't see which ones run from the switch to the motor. I know about the battery, the wires im sticking into the switch plugs are going directly to the battery.

I just can't figure out why the motors on those two doors are not activating, unless it has some reliance on the drivers door. And since none of the wiring from any door is connected to the vehicle if that is the case i need to know what it is relying on (example, ground) so i can supplement it.
