no power to doors. HELP!

181161 · Nov 1, 2017

I have a 98 Spyder gst whose windows and electric doors do not work on either side. The switch has been tested and is working fine. I have tested all four of the window regulators manually and they are all working. I have checked the fuse and replaced the relay. My main issue is I have no power to the switches to lock or control the windows. need some help troubleshooting here.

sounds like you have some wire tracing to do. im assuming you had the door panels off and checked the wiring there? from there i would start tracing wherever they lead. could possibly be a bad connector in a harness plug somewhere as well. you can search for schematics on google or here as well. tons of info out there

I assume you don't have the window lock button pressed.

Here's the wiring for the door from the service manual:

Hopefully this can help tracing things back.

Is this for a Spyder? The door wiring between hardtop and soft top is a different.

When you hit the top down button to lower the convertible top, do the windows also lower?

I will try to post up the wiring diagrams a little later, if i have time
-----------------------
in the engine bay fuse/relay box,
-check fusible link 2 (yellow 60A)and 9 (green 40A)
-check fuse 11 (red 10A)

Pg 65 of the electrical manual. Doesn't specify a difference for the Spyder. Other than the extra set of wires for the rear windows, everything else in the door panel should be the same.

Does everything else work? The ac fan, horn, headlights? I had something similar happen and it was the alternator components that were the issue.

Dumb question but this might assist-do your door speakers work (both sides)? Reason I ask is because the electrical connector itself that connects the door to the car may have come unplugged/loose (or corrosion).

AC was removed for alternator relocation, I haven't reconnected the horn after the quick release install but at the moment my headlights don't work. what do you mean the alternator components? as in the wiring and the fuse for it?

Hi does anyone know what the order in which the plug d-09 wires go. The old owner of my 94 Talon cut the plug and i bought new window motors. The pic y added is from the passenger side if anyone got a pic of the driver side i will be super grateful.
