Default window regulator C-3

1978
C-3
350 Automatic

Both my window regulators are not working.
They were working when I took the glass out a few year ago.
The car is now painted and I am putting the car back together.
I bought new regulators and they don't work either.
So I unplugged the regulator and took a jumper wire and plugged it into
the red wire with the black stripe and then the windows went up and down, and this was done with the key off. So there is 3 wires that run to the regulator and 1 goes to the window switches(red) and the other 2
red with black stripes, do they both have to have power???????

Thanks for any help.

Dave
