Will the window go up if you hit the switch, and help the window up?

Default Actuator works

I've used a 12volt sla battery and it drives the actuator up and down with no problems. I just switch the leads.

If the switch works down, then, you have power at the switch.... so, gotta be an issue on the ground side of the switch then. Might be the switch, might be the ground wire AFTER the switch.

Sometimes the culprit could be the master switch, thru which all the switches run.
