Hello. I replaced my passenger side sliding door lock actuator, the power door worked before I did this. I found I had issues with the manual handle after I got the lock to work. While trying to fix this issue, I think I screwed up something in the door. The power lock does not work now even with the new actuator and the power sliding door stopped working. I have checked the wiring harness and could not locate a break, is there anything else I can try? I also removed the fuse that I had seen refenced for 15 minutes to reset the computer, that did not do it. The driver's side works so I don't think it is the fuse. Is there another fuse in line by the door? Please help. Thank you

Have you checked to see if there is power to the actuator?

How would I check that? It did work and then stopped after I had the issue with the door closing and kind of freezing up.

Just actuate the solenoid and check to see if there is power to it when you do that. You can use a test light or a multimeter
