Replacement doors no power,

Featured Replies

Hi all, 

ive replaced my 2 near side doors today with same colour code from salvage company, however when I put it all together there is no electrics on the front door and only the speaker working on the rear door I’ve checked the 15a fuse for the left hand side and it’s fine does anyone have any advice on what to do next to get the doors to lock and the widows to work..?

cheers

Hi Steve yes I could and it looks like that’s what am going to have to do along with the door lock module and the power motor for the window and the speakers etc…  just thought there might be a fuse or a relay switch that some one knew of that would solve the issue.

cheers

Hi all the existing door modules are coded to the car therefore if you reinstall the original looms the body control module won't know the doors have been changed.

Hi Steve

am also putting the original door modules and the window motors on the replacement doors along with the original wire loom, I’ve noticed a different plug with 2 wires for the window motor on the replacement door where as on my original loom it has a plug with 4 wires also the door actuators are different sizes with different connectors.

cheers thanks

Hi Don as long as you substitute all the components from the original doors you should be fine the main thing is that it all seems original to the body control module, a bit like a re shell but on a far smaller scale.

Thank you very much for the info I was a bit down hearted as I’ve never changed doors before and when I did nothing worked, but now I understand the situation am more upbeat just need a spline bit to remove the door actuators

Hi if the new doors are different electrically the one thing you can be sure of is its very, very rare for them to change the fixing points for the modules etc as that would create a massive re tooling cost, so in theory the originals should fit even if the connectors different, anyway 10/10 for effort and persistence.

Steve.
