I just bought a 1986 Ford F250 and the passenger side window doesn't roll down. I took off the door panel and jumped the motor and the window is able to go up and down. When I got the window down, I noticed that without me doing anything, and everything wired up normally, that the window was able to be rolled up.
The window switch has 5 wires going to it. 2 red, 2 yellow, and a blue. I noticed that if I run a ground from the bottom yellow wire to the door I can operate the window down. However, when I have it wired like this, when I try and roll the window up, it cannot roll up. If I remove the ground jump, I can roll the window up. The jump cable gets very hot and sparks when it is connected and I try and roll the window up. What do you guys think this is?
