Default Power Window help PLZ

A local junk yard is having a sale for all you can carry for $65. Anyways I need both doors and they have an EG Coupe with power doors. I need to find out how to get the windows down with out a battery in the car so I can carry them on my shoulders so I can carry other stuff. I have a 12V battery charger and I don't mind cutting a few wires and giving it power if it will roll the windows down. Thanks.

After searching and searching, I stopped by Advance to try to make out a diagram and I came up with:

Driver Door/ down: White/yellow +
Red/Yellow-

Passenger Door/ down: Blue/Black +
Blue/Green-

That might be way off anyone have any input? Could I cut the wires going into the swith and give it power there?

You might even be able to get away with an average 9volt battery to do that

I would just use the charger and hook it up to the battery leads, but the fuse box is messed up. My battery charger is pretty small so I will bring it just incase. I'm surprised a lot of people wouldn't know this.

I found this....


So is
Driver Door/ down: White/yellow +
Red/Yellow-

Passenger Door/ down: Blue/Black +
Blue/Green-

Correct or am I off? Should I give it power from the switch or at the end of the harness where it enters the door? Thanks.

Generally, you apply power and ground to the 2-P connector at the power window motor. Power and ground on the 2-P connector will either cause the window to go up or down, and when power and ground are switched on the 2-P connector will make it go the opposite way.

I'm not sure what that looks like, I didn't look at the motor and won't see the car again until I go to pull them. Is it just a two wire plug that goes into the motor?

Yes. When you remove the door panel, it is the two wire plug going into the window motor.

Doing it at the 2-P connector for the motor is the fastest and easiest for Hondas and most other cars (don't need a manual to figure out which wire). Because if you did it at the switch, you may have to figure out the correct wires; many times, the wires from the switch goes through a multiplexer or integrated control unit.

Driver: RED/YEL and RED/BLU
Pass: BLU/RED and BLU/WHT

Applying + or - on one side or the other will make it go up or down. I've used a power tool battery and that's worked great. Make sure you bring some wire leads with you to be able to connect the battery to the window motor wires. You should get all the wiring over to the passenger side, too ... for a nice clean install.
