First diagram - ok, both earthed from driver's switch.
2nd diagram - ok, 6061 now live, 6071 still earthed=window closes.
3rd diagram - whuh? Live on 6061 from..?
4th diagram - do what? both can't be live unless the switch is broke...
5th diagram - Both are normally earth, so this is no change from the first diagram..?

Is the driver's switch broke? Is the 12 volts you're measuring on 6062 in diagram 2 the 12 volts going though the motor, the feed being HR to earth in the driver's door switch? Maybe broken wire or poor connection in 6062 somewhere, or in the driver's door switch? The voltages you're reading on it would be from the feed/earth to the other side of the motor (and actually less than 12 volts due to the motor's resistance :? )

Thanks steve,
As you say drawing 1- OK
Drawing 2- passenger sw up- OK
Drawin 3-When I took the passenger side SW out and checked it, press down and 12v 6173 contact DOES NOT sw to 6061/6062, but when put back in car and power on IT DOES ????????? . I got another sw from the scrappy and that does the same ?????
The (drawing 5) is when the drivers sw is in up position , seems to do nothing
The (drawing 4) is when the drivers sw is in down position , motor getting 12v to both 6061 and 6071 ???????
I have replaced the motor & mechanism from scrappy, when I have tried to make it work by shorting the wires (12v to 6071,E to 6061) the window goes down slowly & jams two thirds down, it takes that much current the shorting wire and switch became very hot , and used the switch to raise the window (slowly)nearly melted the wire(1.5), might have to accept the scrappy parts are about worn out!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ANY IDEAS , ITS DRIVING ME CRAZY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
