Hi my drivers side passenger door seems to be having trouble it will pop out from the car on pressing the button but will not open and close it is a intermittent problem but 9 times out of 10 it wont work any ideas guys and gals?

 

- see #7

- and compliments of Raptor 07

 

what year van?

 

Hi its a 2001 model.

 

Cheers for the video it will help me check the cables over.

 

the door latches have been know to give issues

 

It seems a lot of people seem to have problems with them.

 

Ive no doubt its many thousands rather than many hiundreds

- I did mine, it took all of 10 minutes to diagnose / find / repair
- there are two video's around, 1st where you just unclip, and 2nd where you strip the entire harness
- go for the quick clip one, they each pop open in parts of a second, 10 seconds 10 clips, plenty of room
- which 10 clips out of the hundreds ? its always the point at which the cable bends and stays bent
- when I did mine I deliberately did not do it the correct belt~n~braces way with solder and heat shrink sleeve
- I simply twisted the wires together [incorrect] and used top quality woven self-amalgamating tape to joint
- that way flexibility at the point of the bend that would disappear with solder & sleeve .. .. was maintained

 

Cheers that sounds like it may fix my problem will have a look later one my kids are in bed providing this crummy weather holds out.

 

- that'll be Thur or Fri if your in the UK - drink beer in the meantime - you'll fell better for it
