Yes, these are the wires you have to check - and repair - if broken

I cut open closer to the car side and I don’t see any wires broken should it be closer to the door?

Your video does not show that you cut the cover, in order to have a look at the many fine wires that might be broken. The broken wires are usually in the middle between the door and the body. I had to repair driver and passenger side - on both of my 2001 CL500. (Both with high kilometers)
