Need elec window switch wiring diag...78 SC

Hopefully some one will have what I need or at least a source for it. The guy fixing my door panel apparently unplugged the elec. window switched and, it seems, did not wire them back on correctly as neither window works now. The fuse is OK. This is a 78 SC.

There are five wire sets that plug into five spade connectors. If any one can gimme a clue where these go correctly I'll get my car back soon.

I looked in the Pelican diagrams but didn't see what I needed.

The interesting thing to know is the numbers on the back of the switch all get different color wires as they are not the same from switch to switch

I am not a wiring diagram expert, but need to know which wire to connect to which connector for the window switches on my 87 911. Can someone assist me? I had to unplug the switched to remove the door panels, and now am stuck with the windows down, so can't drive in case it rains!

I think I figured it out. If I am correct, it's like this for the Driver's side switch for the passenger window:
1 takes the red and white wire
2 takes the red anc black wire
3 and 5 take the solid red wire
4 takes the brown wire.

I will look at my Bently for the 87 and run with it, and report back!

Well, no dice. I followed the diagram in Bentley's for the '87, and I can't get the switches to work. All that I've done is:
-unplugged the switches (all 3) to get the door panels back on.
-reconnected the driver's door driver's window switch, and got it to work. Took it out, and reconnected the others. Now none of them work.

Any thoughts?
