Take a look at the wires going from the driver door jam into the door. One of them maybe frayed or broken.

That actually sounds like possibly the new switch could be wired improperly (is it Honda OEM?). Or possibly one of the other switches are defective and keeping the new one from working properly. I would think that if it were a frayed or broken wire someplace, both the old master switch and the new one would work the same windows.
