Default power windows in accessory

Just thought about it but couldn't I make my power windows work in accessory and ko instead of Just ko by running a jumper from an accessory powered and ko power to the fuse for the windows? Or would I be running more amps when ko?

This is something that I may have to do. It has a lot of upsides to it.

That's what I was going to do is just jumped from an acc powered fuse to the power windows. Maybe ill try doing a real clean job from behind the fuse panel and do a write up

A write up would be great! It would find it's way into the Tech section.

I just did this today, jumped a wire from the wiper fuse to the window fuse. works like a charm and way more convenient!

Started looking at doing it under the dash or the back of the fuse panel and doing a jumper actually from fuse to fuse might be easier. Im going to look at wiring diagrams and see if there is a cleaner way I can do it without taking the dash apart
