• Passenger front and both rear door windows & locks don’t work
  • Problem: You notice that the passenger front window, and both rear windows don’t work, along with the door locks.
    Solution: Whether you know it now or not, you have some water leaks, allowing water to get under your carpet, and its corroding the wiring. Thankfully, this is a rather simple fix if you have any electronic/soldering knowledge.
    The windows and door locks data runs on a serial bus line that goes from each door module to each other. There is a splice pack under the driver seat that connects these wires. It gets wet and corrodes.
    • 1. Remove the driver seat bolts with a T47 Torx bit. You’ll need to remove those plastic covers. Two bolts in front, two in the back. Disconnect the wiring and remove from the car.
      2. Lift up the carpet and notice standing water, or signs of previous water.
      3. There is some wiring that runs directly under the driver seat. Remove the wire loom from that 1ft section. Carefully cut away the wire wrap from the wires to expose the wires.
      4. You’ll see 4 tan wires that look like they have black duct tape wrapped around them, cut away this wrap as well. You should find a splice pack that looks like this (complete with corrosion): http://i675.photobucket.com/albums/vv11 ... G_7787.jpg
      5. Cut out the splice pack and save it to show your friends.
      6. Cut back the 4 tan wires until it is fresh and clean. Black wiring is not good, cut back as much as necessary, it could be wicked up into that wire a few inches, or a few feet, depending on how long the problem has existed.
      7. Solder a new wire in its place. It doesn’t have to be fancy. Any gauge wire will work as long as it’s somewhat similar to the existing wire. All you are doing is reconnecting the 4 door modules so they can communicate again. Be sure to use heat shrink tubing to keep the water out. http://i675.photobucket.com/albums/vv11 ... G_7788.jpg
      8. Rewrap the area with wire wrap (electrical tape), and put the wire loom back on
      9. Reinstall the seat.
      10. FIX YOUR LEAKS! Check the links in the “Water leaks” section of this document.

Also, this is in the wrong section. This is not about performance. I'm surprised haro didn't catch that and move it.

Is this only your drivers door, all four doors, or every door except the drivers door?

[aslowick]

its everyone of my doors.

[crash93ssei]

Do the other doors open the windows from their own switch?

[aslowick]

no none of the windows will open

[aslowick]

So I rewired everything that you said to and the windows will still not open. I checked the relays and I can't tell if there good or not. Is there anything else I could try

[crash93ssei]

We have had a few have a problem close to you are describing (myself included) where nothing at all on the drivers door works except the speakers, but the other three doors can roll the windows up and down with the switches on those specific doors, just not from the drivers door. Memory seats also don't work. So far, other then myself, everyone has found the main window switch on the drivers door to be the culprit. They replace that switch assembly and are good to go.

This is of course no guarantee, as I have that issue and replaced my window switch and it didn't work still. I am going to try again with another switch assembly soon just to doublecheck though.

[crash93ssei]

It also is possible for the drivers door module to be the problem if absolutely nothing on any of the other doors works, even from their own switches.

[aslowick]

So could it be that the drivers door module is bad and that is what's making the rest of the doors not work. Cause as of right now no doors work.
