Default Still wondering why windows and locks dont work?

Both doors, my power window and power door locks dont work. All fuses are fine, and the two 30 amp relays in the box test good with a continuity check. Where should I look next?

the controls ... sometimes if they have gotten wet they will corrude. being baked by the sun can damage them also. there is also a main ground wire for them controls that is behind the side floorboard kick plates. Sick

Nevermind, I just installed another ground wire next to the switches. Windows work, power locks still out. It will be another winter project!

Im really trying hard to un-bubba-fy the prior owners negligence. But, try as I might, I still had to go with the tried and true method of running a ground wire to the nearest bolt. But damn, are those windows slow. I know they must be on their way out!

So Sick, you seem to know your way around these cars pretty well. This forum seems pretty slow to answer most of the time, and you seem to be one of the few that ever answers. Would you mind If I PM'd you a laundry list of assorted questions?
