I'm trying to get the windows working on my 69 Monaco but the previous owner made a mess of the plug and wires. Can anybody provide me with either a picture or diagram showing which wire goes where in the plug? Here's a picture to show what I have.

Let's see if these pics help you. In my case I abandoned the damaged, archaic, poorly designed OEM connector system (notice the decades-old masking tape trying to hold that goofy connector together!) and I soldered "pigtails" directly to the studs (which is a delicate proposition to not melt something important). These pigtails were then connected to the harness using insulated butt connectors.

Anyhoo, hopefully this assortment of pics will help you figure-out what you need to know. Good luck and let us know how you made out.

I'm hoping that my labels on the pigtails can help you. Note the orange wires are a slightly heavier gage than the white ones because they're power and grounds, but I forget what I used.

@vdk2010 found some Ford connectors that will work with a very slight tweak. I'll try to find them, but he's probably way more organized and will likely have the part number and source.
