[QUOTE="HiddenCityIronworks, post: 1568167, member: 28883"] Well, I figured this one out through the process of elimination, and shooting the parts gun at it. I replaced the motor, not it. then replaced the switch, again, not it. then detached the motor from the regulator to eliminate the bind, not it again. then as advised above, I pulled out the multimeter and started buzzing out all the wires, and sure as bird poop on a freshly washed car, I had a dead short to ground. And it's buried somewhere in that maze of wires all stuffed under the dead pedal and the hood release. I think I'm going to run a new wire to the switch and be done with it. I have it working now as I've isolated the short through a series of cuts. I can't even blame this on the stereo sushi chef, as it appears to be in an area of the harness that ford put together, and was undisturbed as far as I can tell. Thanks for all the responses as always! Cars R Fun. [/QUOTE]
