Default Electrical problems

I recently replaced my door lock actuator and now it won't work with the remote. If I disconnect the door window switch it will work with the remote but then the windows are disconnected. Any suggestions? ??

Welcome to ClubLexus. [This is the main purpose of the reply as I cant suggest a remedy]

Other than rechecking your work .. pinched cables, loose plugs, bad motor, etc

Please do not install the door panel till everything is working fine.

I checked for loose connections and it doesn't seem any wire might be pinched. The old actuator was burnt out from the looks of it. It's like I can have the actuator and the window switch connected at the same time for if I do the key won't lock and unlock the doors.
