Default Window problem... door problem..

Yes people relax I searched....

I took out my window doing my actuator installation, put everything back in (pink connecter on door handle broke, I taped it in works fine) my door lock switch is extremely tight, my little threaded black plastic piece broke off but it still hooks up , I hooked up my window connecter and it does not do anything, up or down... Any feedback I would immensely appreciate, so the door only locks when I use the key on the passenger side, but the window problem got me stumped....

Yeah, I figured that you would eventually post down here. I saw you had trouble in the thread above. My pass side is going bad and I don't plan on fixing it right now until I"m fully comfortable doing it. For now, it's much easier for me to just reach over lol.

can you hear the window motor working when you try to move the window?
if you do and the window just won't move then maybe it's binding.

Omg I'm a freaking idiot, the window lock button on the drivers side was engaged, I hit the button and it works fine, mods I'm terribly sorry u can erase this, I am an idiot, sorry but that's the last thing I would of ever checked... Smh I forgot that button was even there, when I was putting the window down though I heard some crackling, I immediately stopped it and put it back up I'll check it later.....
