Default Power window problem

My window got stuck in the down position soo I thought it was a burnt out motor and replaced it, before putting it in I tried it, It went down all the way then got stuck again. So Ive come to the conclusion that the wire that allows it to go back up either got disconected or is cracked or what not.

Does anyone know what wire it is or what the fix is?

Sorry I'm used to having my car posted besides me, but its a 1996 honda accord 4 door lx. SO I've narrowed it down to a master sender switch or broken wire.

The switch was my thought, because it sends power/ground to the wires to drive the motor in one direction, and reverses them to drive the window motor in the other direction.
