Hello,

The window issue sounds like a wiring problem.
Since it worked before the window replacement, it is a good chance something got bumped or loose and the switch is not providing power to the motor to operate the window.

There is a 20A circuit breaker in the fuse panel you might want to check as well.

I have attached the wiring schematics below.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
