Driver side window controls not working
 
2013 Toyota fr-z

Was installing brz door handle. Hooked all the wires up. Made sure window didnt cut wires when it rolled down. All was good but the handle still wasnt working. Disconnected door and stuff. Continued this process like 4 more times.

Then i plugged the door back in aaaaand the window decides to roll halfway down....k. I dont remember if I touched the window or I pressed the switch but it rolled all the way down and now wont go back up.

The mirrors and locks work. The right door controls work. But all the window controls on the drivers side do not.

Checked the connections and fuses all good, unless there's a 3rd fuse box idk about. Tried the auto window reset thing but lets be real my window isnt moving at all.

When I press down on the driver side switch the, I think, window motor connector buzzes and wiggles for a second. But driver side up��, and passenger side up and down show no response.

Other than try to troubleshoot all the wires Idk what to do.

Do you guys have any other ideas?
All help is appreciated
Thank you

Edit: I used 2 places for grounds. 1st was the bolt on that black piece across from door handle. 2nd was one of the 2 nuts holding a bar to the door. The bar holds the x/scissor thing for the window.

Ok so I switched the driver and passenger switches and it still didnt work. Used a voltmeter and some of them are 12v some arent. Not too sure if they all have to be 12v or not.

Only thing I can think off is some of the wires between the door and the car in the rubber grommet might be cut.

Not sure how to fix those without taking off door.

Does anyone at least know how to manually get the window up?

Update: Passenger side window now doing the same thing as the driver.

All I know is the shaft.

Can you bring me up to speed on the brz door handle? What's the purpose?

Check the link in my sig. You'll find all the service manuals, including the wiring.

I have a feeling the right side died because you accidentally shorted something while troubleshooting. It happens.

An eazygo start system. It has a door handle that unlocks the car. But they dont make the handles in blue anymore. So it was either have it painted or use the oem brz handle.

Do you know how to disengage/remove the window motor/actuator?

Edit:nevermind

7/22? Dang it's been too long.

Well unfortunately my leave ended on 7/23 and I had to get back to work. But I wasn't about to drive 6 hours with the windows down and through heavy rain so I hopped in my 94 Ranger with 93hp. Woo.

Since then I've replaced the wiring harness. The window motor is now continuously clicking instead of just one click.

Replaced the driver side controls. Nothing changed after that.

Only thing I can think of is the motor is bad or the window is off the tracks.

Ill return when I have more money and an update..
