Z32 window motors on Z31

They DO work on our Z31's, and are exactly identical, for anyone asking.

BUT, they are flipped around, so when I press "up" they go down. Vice versa.

Anyone know how to fix that? Is it as easy as switching the two wires?

Suggestion: If you are right and the motors are identical, flip the wires to the rocker switch on the door so the 'up' switch position moves the window 'up,' etc. This you can try out without taking the door panels off again, yes? That's if you can't just pop the rocker out of the switch housing and invert it, up for down...

If there are three (or more) wires to each rocker switch, ignore my suggestion. I lied. Car may suddenly detonate.

If there are no rocker switches in a Z32, you did not see this reply.

There's like 4-5 pins on the connector, but the window motor itself there are 2. So many I just have to rip the panel off again. Or ignore it. Lol

First car with power windows I ever owned worked like yours now. Switch toward me raised window, switch away from me lowered it. Then Nissan screwed around with that. Took me months to get used to that switch. But them weirdos in Japan drive on the left, too, so...
