Sorry about nonspecificity . . . 200 1989

Let's see.

I'm guessing it's a chafed wire(s). Everything works fine under dry conditions, and the fuse goes when I try the windows when there's condensation on them. I haven't narrowed it down to one particuar window and wiring, but it shouldn't be a switch/relay or motor issue.

I know I'm putting in the right fuse because I've tried both the ones he gave me (identical to original Volvo fuses) and the ones NAPA says are the "updated" internal fuses for that same one.

The hourly rate is about $40, I think, and we're pretty trusting of the mechanic.

The job may be one most Brickboarders could do at home, but I lack the tools, and much more the mechanical/electrical knowledge, to do it myself.
