Default 2003 Taurus passenger window will not roll up

Passenger window will roll down from either switch (drivers side and passenger side) but will not roll up at all. Checked all switches with an electric probe and all had power to and thru the switches. Both switches powered the motor to make window go down. Probe showed power at the motor.
Removed motor and connected to a battery and motor runs both directions. Appreciate any feed back and help locating a wire diagram. Could it be a bad diode - if so where might they be located? Thanks

Don't know at this time if a diode is involved. Were you able to verify that power was available in both directions at the drivers' door switch ?
Need to confirm that first, don't want to go after drive's door module until wiring and switch are confirmed good.

Take a look at the diagrams I have uploaded. They are the Ford diagrams, maybe they can offer some help.

Thanks to both of you for your replies. Even though we had tested everything and had "power" it does seem to be a bad diode in the switch - probably drivers side switch. We were told by a different fellow that just because the motor & switches work hooked up to a power source, doesn't mean it will perform under load. To be safe we changed both switches before even attempting to roll the window down and up - it worked! Again thanks for the help.
