Default To Anyone Familiar Working W/Electrical Systems

God, where to begin....

2006 Dodge Stratus, 4.2L. Seems like a start.

Been working all day trying to figure out why my windows won't roll down (all of them. Ever since I got the car). I took the door trim apart so I could get to my power window master switch so I could test it to narrow down the problem.

I've attached some photos, the switch, testing the cables, volts etc.

Here's what I need answered:

1. The diagram I attached is of the power window wiring. See the wires on the harness in one of the other pictures I attached? The colors aren't matching up to me. Do I have the wrong diagram?

2. How can I be sure it's the switch if it's getting no voltage and not a short/open?

3. if it is a short/open how do I go about finding exactly where it is?

4. May be hard to tell, but from what you can make out from the photos, do the Ohm readings seem okay? When I tested the switch for ohms, it seemed okay. But when I tested the harness for ohms, I only got 3 readings from the 11 prongs.

You should be checking the harness for voltage, not resistance. Do you have power going to the harness? Have you checked the fuses, relays?
