91 hatch motor with no power

Ok so I just replaced the housing and all electrical parts on my hatch motor to get it running again, but there is no power coming in for some reason, a red (hot) and a black (neutral) come in then go to the light in the interior trunk panel then that feeds to the motor but there's no power coming into there, so where are the places I need to check for voltage besides in the trunk?

The red wire with a white stripe is fed power thru the LID fuse.


Happy Racing!

Re: 91 hatch motor with no power

Don't know about the Camaro but on the Firebird it's a blue wire that feeds power to the motor. Get a volt meter and check each wire and work out what the circuit is. There may be diagrams on the board somewhere.

I have metered everything in the trunk part, so the fuse is next, since I'm out of work for winter I guess I'll have plenty of time to finally get this thing working properly again
