Door switches not working after stereo install. Need advice
Hey guys! Recently installed an pioneer deck, replaced speaker wires, all speakers, and added an amp. After reinstalling everything, the door switches on both sides have stopped responding.
Trying to figure out the issue..
The Green connectors are wired to the deck
The Red connectors are not connected to anything... Could this be the issue?
Info:
2008 350z Base Auto
Non Bose
Door speaker wires were ran through a small drilled hole into the molex
Checked all fuses
Double checked all connections inside door and dash
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Car doesn't belong to me, what is the lockout switch?
As some have stated, perhaps I over drill the molex or nipped a wire. I will get the car back and remove the doors to check the molex. I was very careful when I drilled.

UPDATE
I purchased 2 used molex and replaced both doors. Nothing changed.
Symptoms:
Driver door
Mirror, lock and power window switches not responsive. Keyfob does NOT lock/unlock the door.
Passenger door
Lock and window switches not responsive. Keyfob does lock/unlock the door.
Any more ideas? I'd greatly appreciate it.

I would have to assume no power is getting to the drivers side. I could check with a dmm but I'm not sure which wire to look at. Grounding is only at 2 points, one by the stereo and one for the amp.
I used the old stock 6.5s and cut the speakers out and used it as an adapter. No way of damaging the harness. I also replaced the whole door harness/molex and no change in symptoms.

Are both door units containing the switches plugged in? I remember when I did mine that the two units form some kind of circuit, if they are not both plugged in then neither works. I could be wrong... the whole process was so painful that just thinking about it makes my hands cramp up

After some more research in the forum, I am officially putting my money of the speaker wire running through the molex has bunched up and bent some pins inside the connection. I will get the car back on Monday and we will see.
