Passenger Door is dead
Was searching around the site but didn't find a single case like mine, always found one or the other... but I am a noob so your help will be greatly appreciated.
Issue: My car was a the paint shop for a color swap... and at the time they gave me the car back (3months) passenger side is totally dead... Window wont go up or down, nor the mirror... doesn't do anything... no sounds of the motors working either.
Checked the main fuse box didn't find anything for windows... any other place I should look... what do you guys recommend.
Thanks in advance, my car is a MY03

I had this too, when the door was removed the cable was obviously unplugged but not plugged back in.
I found it very hard to plug back in and it took about 5 minutes of fiddling, best way to check is look inside the car at the area where the cable comes through from the door, then move the cable around so you can identify it and check it is plugged in.
That may not be the best way but it worked for me
hope it helps you too!

What about the right speakers?
Sounds like there is an open somewhere.
Maybe all the door wiring runs through one specific area like a connector that wasn't plugged in or somewhere else in the circuit where there is voltage, but no current.
Just because the fuse looks good does not mean there is current. You can have voltage all the way up to the connector which has an open, but still have no amperage.
You can go get a digital multimeter (DMM) and check for power and ground at the component connectors and narrow your search from there.
