Re: 86 Suburban daily driver

So as could probably be expected, nothing worked. Power locks didn't work, and the front 2 windows would eventually go down, but the rear ones wouldn't. Some time with a multi-meter let me to conclude that power was getting where it should, but switches were bad. I replaced both power lock switches and one of the solenoids, and did some lube-ing and now all 5 doors lock and unlock reliably with the switches. Windows were a similar treatment, only the driver's door window switch worked so the rest were replaced and I'm waiting on 2 window motors and then all the windows should work too. I still plan on putting relays in the doors for the windows to work quicker, but haven't gotten to that yet. All the rubber and glass runs also will need to be replaced too.
