muddbugg72 and bagged 74 thanks for the help. I've yet to sort it all out.

Let me ask this, it appears there may be a lock in the latch as wires go to the drivers side latch in the tailgate. Dos this ring a bell? Can the tailgate be opened with the window up? and can the late model latches have a power lock on them that prevents the handle from unleashing the latch when pulled?

As I ran the window up and down with the drill, I noticed the latch would not operate with the window in a partially up position.

Also, since I do not have the correct key, I'm un able to test the motor using a 'turn of the key' after putting a hot to any of the wires to test. I also don't want to risk burning or shorting out the motor.

Does anyone have a wiring diagram out of a maintenance manual for these gates?

By the way, the gate installed perfectly into the truck. Amazing the fit and finish since a '91 gate going into a '75 truck.
