1987 4runner front power windows
So heres the deal at first the drivers side window worked fine but not the passenger so I took it all apart and could not find any problems with the switch or the wires leading to it, also the drivers side wouldnt work the passenger side either so I checked the motors and they work great when I have power and a ground. I read somewhere that you could just hook a power wire to the blue wire w/ the red stripe but it didn't so I can figure it out anyone else have this problem.

I believe there's a master switch for the electric windows that dictates operation from the driver's side to the pass side. Might check into that. Not sure where it is. I don't have any schematics nor have I dug that deep into power windows.

update i just finished checking the continuity from the wiring harness from the switch in the door to the harness in the cab it seems to be working fine. i did run a wire from the battery to the switch and it worked fine window up and down there has to be a fuse or a relay i have to check but I dont know where it is.
