Xantia S2 Rear door harness connector

Unread post by Edhertz »

Hello folks. I cannot lock / unlock the o.s rear door by remote or open and shut the door window. The n.s door is fine. My question is: is there a connector at the bulkhead before it goes to the door? Reading others with a similar problem I am expecting it to be a broken wire in the flexible to the door or in the plug if there is one. As usual thanks for your help in advance.

Highly likely to be a broken wire as both locking and windows are not working - take the flexible covering tube off and check in there for a broken wire.

Thanks for reply. I went looking for a connector inside the door bulkhead but couldn't find one. What I did find, as suspected, was 4 broken wires with 2 on the way. I removed the moulded rubber bulkhead bush and made a cut from below to expose the wiring. Looks a mess but went back o.k with the help of little drop of waxoyl on the rubber. Couple of hours work and all is well. So helpful having numbers on the wires!
