Default Power lock And window not functioning on passenger door.

Hey guys, so I just bought my first XJ. I’m having an issue where my window switches don’t roll down my window on my passenger door. And along with that, my power door lock actuator makes a noise, but doesn’t actually lock the door. It sounds like it is locking and unlocking, but it only locks my other 3 doors. Please help lol. I have my entire door pulled apart, and would like to order whatever I need now.

Fix the broken wire in the passenger's door bundle and lubricate the door lock mechanism. Find the door lock rod and move it back and forth with lube until it works freely.

That's the broken wire that's inside the wiring bundle between the door and the body. The window gets power from the driver's door module. Just thinking... if neither switch works, it could be the motor itself. You can pull the plug on the motor and hot-wire it to see if it works. 2 pins, power and ground, and changing polarity changes direction.
