Thank you. I checked it w/ a meter. All it does is hook onto the wire connector. The switches seem to connect the same terminals. Just verifying. Don't want to pop a fuse or CB.

Power Window Switch on 1980

Does it matter which way it's installed? Is there a top or bottom? I didn't pay attention when I took it out. Fits either way.
