Default Complications with my Clutch job

Hi im Brendan new to the z platform.
I recently got ahold of a 2003 enthusiast


The car is very high miles 166k but ran smooth and without knock. the clutch was completely out to the point of zero movement in any gear. For the price and almost no rust or body damage in the midwest i scooped her.

problem 1: passenger door electronics
ive found that its common for the internals of the doors are prone to literally falling apart. Suprizingly nithing failed in the door untill i rolled down the window while doing the clutch. Now all i get is relay clicking for the window from both switches. And also the unlock actuator will not fully unlock but it tries. Any info on where to start would help.

problem 2: after completing the clutch job i began to test my work letting the clutch engage starting in first (on jack stands). Car runs perfectly and revs in nuetral freely. When i put it into gear any acceleration is cut by computer and slip light appears. This scared me at first but im assuming thats abs working correctly (abs light never came on tho) i have not tested with traction controls off yet. While the tires were spinning at idle in first there was no wheelspeed indicated on my speedo. I know that there are 4 sensors for abs, so my question is do all 4 wheels need to spin for the speedo to function.




kinda a ramble but hit me back with anything!

Put it on the ground and drive it, it'll be ok. TCS is doing it's thing, speedo reads both sensors at axles not ABS sensors.
