Default Headunit stopped working & so did windows

So the other day i went out to my car to put my intake on. Opened the door, popped the hood and shut the door. The window just cyphers up and down non stop. I get in and i cant get it to stay closed. I tried the reset multiple times, pulled the negative terminal off the battery to kill the power for a half hour. Tried again. So im thinking something broke now, well i also just noticed my aftermarket head unit stopped working. Cant turn it on....is this just ironic timing or did my head unit just cause a relay or module to fail due to idk power backfeed or something?
ive looked a good amount on the forums and cant find any similar issue.
thanks for any help

Did you check fuses, although it would be odd that both went out at the same time?

Usually when the window starts to index up and down non stop it's an indication the outer door pad/switch needs to be cleaned or replaced.

Fuses are good. I just ordered new switch pads for both sides. When i pulled the door switch out with roof off and shut the door the window cyphered fine. So guessing that switch went bad. Tried cleaning but didnt work. Still not sure about the headunit, i think it went into safe mode but reset hasnt worked on it, fuse is fine. Maybe the headunit just failed at an ironic time that made it look like a connected issue
