They won't roll down at all? Can you hear the motor winding? As far as I know, the crank doors are set up and cut differently inside which wouldn't allow a proper conversion. Most people just end up swapping the doors out completely

If both don't work, it's probay a bad switch or fuse. I would run throu the electrical before replacing the doors.
