Default Power window wiring question?

Does any one have a diagram for the power windows on a 81 Vette? I have been attempting to chase a problem with a non functional windo on the passenger side. The motor is brand new there is power to the swith but no power to the motor. Anyone got any clues?

Ohm out the switch... if it's OK then Ohm (check the continuity) of the positive lead from the switch to the motor. If OK... then check the motor ground. Process of elimination.

Got it. I was trying to check thing without the motor grounded. I thought it would be like my 85 TA and not need the chassis ground to work.
