After having a broken drivers side window for 5 years I finally got around to finding a part to fix my window. On Saturday I replaced the entire window regulator on my drivers side door. Everything worked fine, and so I put it all back together (Imagine my glee to have this thing working after 5 years). The next evening I rolled the window down and now it will not go back up. If I push the button to make it go down and it will still work, but nothing happens when you push the button to go up. I would think I would at least hear the motor click or something. Maybe it's the switch, but it would be a real coincidence if the switch went out the day after I put in the new regulator. I can not even push the window up manually. It is still on track and nothing appears to be binding on anything. The switch can still operate the passenger side window so it cannot be completely fried. Also, Sunday afternoon I rolled the window down and the first time I pushed the button nothing happened. Not sure if this is related. Thanks for the help.

I reposted it in General Tech so you can ignore this one since it is in the wrong section.
