electric windows
#6
when we first got ours ( 306 estate) it had a similar problem....the multi round connector had green connections inside which where cleaned, but the previous owners had "repaired" the door loom......

this was repaired properly and now works great.

write down wot don't work and find the wires concerned...they will be broken ( make and break contact inside the insulation or even burnt possibly ) inside. sorry don't have the wire info to hand.......the wires break due to the door opening and closing a million times which work hardens then fatiques the wires....they go brittle and then break......make and break contact......

I used a copper soldering iron as there is a computer in this car.

there is lots of room inside the door pillar gaiter area to stuff wires safely.

tape and heat shrink as well as replacement wires soldered in will help.

had problem rear window demister heater and speaker which was similar fault, replaced wires and now ok.
