Power windows and locks

I started what I thought to be a couple weekend project. Repainting my 94 F150. Well over a month later I'm starting to run out of steam. Everything fought me the whole way. Here is the newest thing. I re-hung the doors and re-installed all the electrial connections for the power doors and locks. Turned the truck on and nothing works. Please tell me I've overlooked a small detail? and yes I've checked all the connections in the doors multiple times. The rear speaker also decided not to work anymore. I'm getting power to the lights and front speakers, but nothing with the windows or locks. Any suggestions?

you see that black rubber when you open the door in the hinges area ? Wiring harness goes thru there ..... pull it back if you can , or slit that open and see if there are wires broken in half .

After years of opening the door .... and those wires having to bend back n fourth .... they break . If its not there , then post back .

FYI... all the switches on both doors have to be plugged in before the devices will operate. Been there, done that.

Please, say you didn't put the door panel back on with the wire harness disconnected. Not that I would do such a thing, but I've seen it happen. :P
