I had no power through master control on drivers door, so I replaced. Now have power out to driver door on only ONE lead.(the auto-down position.) No fire to anything else. I have jumped the old drivers door window motor and it does not work at all. Im hesitant about replacing motor, because I attached the re-man otor from NAPA to the wiring harness and it functions only one-way, on the Auto-Down positon only. Not the normal drivers adjustment mode. Any ideas. Help please.

Mike, the ploarity to the motor is changed to make it go up. If you have power down, then when you put it up, the switch is to supply power the opposite way to put the window up. If it doesn't, my guess is you have a bad switch even though it's new.
