Default Power Window Repair

My friend has a 2005 F150 XLT 4 door, and none of his windows work. We've checked, replaced and rechecked the fuse, its all good. So then we took apart the doors and verified that all the windows are functional, they just aren't getting power. my guess is that there's a broken wire somewhere. does anyone have a wiring diagram for this truck's windows, or and ideas on how to fix it? Thanks!

I believe the driver’s side door tends to pinch the wiring inside that rubber duct. Worth checking that out.

I believe you are correct in that the break is local to the door hinge area.
I recently worked on an explorer (2004?) that had two broken wires in the hinge area and in my case I was able to find these by pulling back the rubber expansion material and doing a visual inspection. Conductor and jacket were broken making the search pretty easy. I ran new conductors from the switch back to the break, in order to gain some slack and spliced into break area on the side towards the cabin. After disconnecting, abandoned old switch wiring as-is.
