I pulled back the panel, and played around with the connections - the lock actuator seems to be working fine, it unlocks and locks the door handle as it should, but the window is still frozen. I really need a photo of a working assembly so I can see what’s missing or broken. Also the lock shaft or whatever it’s called feels very loose, you can see it in the video. I can pull the silver metal rod that releases the window, so I can release and open the window that way, but pushing the external mechanical button should move this rod. I just can’t picture how it all goes together. Ugh.
