• Have you tried this? – TheDeadMedic Commented Feb 13, 2016 at 18:13
• Remember to add wp_head() before </header> tag and wp_footer() before </body> tag. It works for but I had the same problem. – Daniel Szantar Commented Jan 4, 2019 at 20:30

You have to put the function footer_sidebar() in the file functions.php not sidebar.php

Is the footer.php included on site you opened the customizer?

You might be forgotten to add wp_footer(); function before the closing body tag in your footer.php. That causes the javascript cannot finish its instruction in the customizer.
