I have an Aux output on my alarm that I am trying to use to roll my windows up, I dont care about them going down. The output is negative, but I will use a relay for a 12vdc output if necessary. I took the door apart and looked at the switch. Seems pretty easy. There are 5 pins....I tested for power...1 of them blue/red, was 12 volts. The others read no power. I shot for power on the other 4 wires and 12 volts is read on one of these wires with the drivers window going up, 12 volts on a different wire with the passengers window up and so on. So all 4 of these wires read 12 volts at some point depending on which window is going in which direction. I don't know a hell of a lot of about this stuff but I figured it'd be pretty simple. I found the two wires that read 12 volts when each window was going up, it was blue / YELLOW and RED / black I think. So without pressing the buttons manually, I took a jumper wire and touched the wire that was constant 12 volts, to the blue / YELLOW and RED / black, one at a time. Nothing happens??? What am I doing wrong? I removed the switch and between the blue/red (12 volts) and blue / YELLOW read continuity. Between the blue/red (12volts) and the RED / black red like 200 ohms. No I confused myself. I might give up on the whole idea of this. I was hoping to have the relay send out 12 volts to the RED / black and blue / YELLOW, with diodes after the split. I figured with 12 volts on each of these wires both windows would roll up until I released the Aux button. Thanks for any help.suggestions.

You can use SPDT Relays, but it is worth your while to get Window Roll-Up Module.
