Ive been trimming the fat on my '95 formula here lately. No ABS, cruise, any and all air bag sensors, air pump, etc. I pulled the dash in my car, ditched the HVAC, pass. Air bag, and all the remanding wiring for all the other stuff I ditched.
Now... Everything in the interior and exterior works just fine (head, tail, turn signals, brake lights, horn, steering wheel controls, gauges, etc) EXCEPT the driver window. Passenger works fine, as well as the power locks, and mirrors.
When I push the "down" button for the driver side, I hear the "auto down" box which is under the dash, mounted on the firewall, just *click* once. Window doesn't move, hit the button again and it sounds like the opposite *click* sound, like a relay is opening.
I really don't care to figure out why it's not working at this point, I'd just like to know how I need to wire the switch accordingly, so it can operate just like the passenger side (only moves while you have your finger on the button)
This small issue is holding me up on putting the dash, and remaining interior bAck together.

If I could keep my "10 speaker" style door panels and put crank windows in the car, I'd just do that, atleast then the windows would roll up and down in the winter months. But, I'd have to swap to the base model door panels, and really don't wanna do that, but it's definitely an option, then I can REALLY ditch some wire.
