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

sounds to me like the switch itself may have died on ya, or possibly a connection came loose inside there.....

Connection, fuse, switch or relay.

if that all checks out, try taking the door pannel off and tapping on the motor with a hammer... sometimes the brushes get stuck and the motor wont do anything. just tap it lightly a few times and it free up and start working

Fuse is in the fuse box.
Relay is above the throttle. Little box ~the size of a cigarette pack sitting in a metal "pocket" on the inner side of the firewall. Just lay on your back and you should see it.
