Question Passenger Window no longer works

Greetings,

I took my FC to get some body work done at a local shop. They claim that they did not have the door apart but did have the passenger mirror off to paint. I haven't really done any troubleshooting besides checking to see if the safety lock was on. If someone has an idea of what's wrong with it or if there's possibly a switch that they forgot to have plugged in please give me your input. Thanks!

More information needed.

Passenger window won't go dowm with either the drivers door switch or passenger door switch? If yesr for one or the other, then you have dirty contacts on the switch. Eash fix, just take your time and pay attention how it came apart.

If no to either, and your drivers window works, and the body shop never pulled the door panel, then perhaps the window regulator took a dump.

The passenger won't go down with either the drive controls or the passenger controls.

Gonna take off the switch sometime today and clean the contacts. Hopefully this fixes it. Kind of random though how I just take it to the body shop and it doesn't work after. Perhaps I'll check the electrical connector to see that it is plugged in if the contact cleaning doesn't do the trick.
