Hey.. I need to know "HOW" that switch works for the early '80's GM cars...
Is the Window motor grounded, and open/close decided by running positive current down one wire, with the other wire in an "OPEN" state (ie: dead)??
OR: Do they work by reversing the polarity of the 2 wires to the motor? IE.. INPUT is RED+ and BLACK -.. then the wires YELLOW and BLUE to the motor could be: OPEN= YELLOW + and BLUE -, then CLOSE= YELLOW - and BLUE + ??
I need to know, the ASC control module in my 2000 Alero fried, and I just want to hotwire it to a switch, but that motor follows the polarity reversing scenario. SO.. if our switches work like #2, then I can get a $10 switch.. instead of a $200 brain...lol.
The ALero is a POS anyway, with no headliner... so looks are of no concern. I'm using two wires and reversing it myself at the plug to operate it now.. so I know it'll work, if I can find a switch that works like that.
THANKS!!!
