Who said anything about the power mirror switch? lol
Wow, I have truly come a long way since I made this post back in '08. I can't believe I went and posted for people to cut wires and whatnot when you can just de-pin the harness plug and do it a faster, cleaner, easier way. Also, I was no wiring expert back then. Comments about wire codes being incorrect for functions should be excused.. as it was unlikely I kept much written record back then when I would be swapping wires. It is highly likely that I changed something (For example which wire set controlled which side window) in-car upon reinstallation and forgot to mention it here. Honestly, the rest of the forum members have made up for my prior ignorance. I'm sure at some point I'll prune, condense, and reorganize this write up; give credit where needed, and have a mod re-post/archive it. The MPV switches are a great, cheap replacement, and are readily available at salvage yards for pennies versus the FC window switches. If you're in a hurry because you have rainstorms coming, just do it. |

Thought I'd mention that I just did this and when I opposed the wires as mentioned in the OP on the driver's side switch, it reversed which switch did what. Meaning, the right switch controlled the driver side window while the left switch controlled the passenger side window (but pulling up on the switch still made and go up and vice-versa). I re-wired the harness so that all the wires matched up instead of being opposed (G & G/W, G/B & G/B, R & R/W, R/B & R/B) and now the left switch controls the driver side window and the right switch controls the passenger side window.

I did this first! Haha! https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...+wrecking+yard

ebay has the load of driver side mpv switches for $20-30. just ordered mine, hopefully all goes well
|
and they even have a blue/black one that would work with a blue interior
|
Buy a can of vinyl dye from autozone for 10 bucks and you can paint them any color you want!!! Simple!

I only had time to quickly scan this thread so forgive me if this was already mentioned but...
I vaguely remember a window switch swap that yielded the "one-touch" feature on the RX power windows. Anybody here know what switches swap in for this feature? |

Just did this today. Took a few photos to help anyone who needs them.
Total time to de pin and re pin was about 10 minutes. My door panel was already off so that helped out some. 91-95 MPV switches $10 from salvage yard Attachment 668035 Attachment 668036 Attachment 668037 Attachment 668038 Attachment 668039 Attachment 668040 MPV and FC use the exact same pins in the connectors. Just push them in and your ready to go Attachment 668041 Attachment 668042 Attachment 668043 |
And since there were so many calls five years ago...
