Default power window wont go down

i just recently had the motor changed on my drivers side, and it has been working fine. all of a sudden it doesnt do anything. before, when it was going bad it would at least go down slowly and get stuck, or creep back up, etc. now it does nothing. the passenger works just fine. i checked the fuse and it looks fine. does anyone know what it could be? thanks in advance

The actuall window switch could be going bad. The new motor might of died on you as well. That does happen sometimes. You could pull the motor and jump power straight to it. Or have the switch checked for voltage to see if its working properly.
