I bought a car 2nd hand and it turns out the previous owner snipped all the wires on the front passenger door. Now, it would be an easy fix matching the colors however im colorblind so ive been struggling with this for the past 4 months now.

State the year make and model on the Video title please. At least in the Description !
Its only a small bolt on the door stop to let you swing the door more than 45 degrees. Also, taking the plastic off the kick at side panel, will give you another plug in. Disconnect and push wires through hole at car side. With wiring in hand, go to bench and resolder. Then reinstall. Alot easier to heat shrink tube.

I can visibly see that I have a broken wire going from the wiring to my driver side door motor window motor and so I'm thinking that s*** if I could just replace this one little wire module it'll be great I'll be set. ty

If you fix that broken wire you should be back in business.
That looks like a b***ch to get to that's why I'm hesitating. I know for sure it's not the window switch, I remember when I lost power, it had come back, I tried moving the wires in the door and it felt like it was just a loose connection somewhere. No indication it was the motor, no strange noises. Fuses are all fine so there's no power to the switch. I didn't know you could pull those wires out further by removing the clip. Thanks so much I'm going to tackle it tomorrow. I've joined other wires and fixed stuff in the house and I've got shrink wrap and insulated sleeves so I'm hoping I can find the culprit!
Hi, great video! Would this loose wire be the same issue if all passengers windows don't work? The driver window rolls up and down with out any issues at all. Thanks!

Looks like I may have 4 of these to do on a mk5 Vauxhall Astra, intermittent locking/ unlocking issues on all 4 doors, if I can’t borrow a crimp set then I’ll solder the Damn thing, bloody old cars lol, thanks for the upload 🙂👍

@@HomeOwnerRepair to be honest I think it’s the locks themselves could be worn as the solenoids are firing on all doors but don’t always open so that pretty much rules out wiring, gonna order one new lock and see if it cures the issue, it’s a terrible design as it can leave you locked in as even the inside handle won’t open the door as it should, I have to open the window and use the key manually to unlock it.
Question, that white part at 2:11 thats in your hand, how do you disconnect that from the vehicle? Trying to do that on mine right now and its being a bugger. I dont want to break it. Thanks!

If I remember correctly I think there were a couple of tabs on it that you squeeze together, doing that should release it from the door for you. Hope this helps you out.

I am not exactly sure where this circuit leads to. There may be a wire diagram online that shows where it goes.

How come you didnt solder? I think I have the same issue but every other video mentions soldering it

You can solder it. These connectors work great and make for a strong connection too.

Soldering is a bad idea as repeated motion will jar apart any solder joint. Always crimp and use shrink tube !
the car locked me out with the keys in the ignition for the second time today. Now I'm waiting for someone to bring me a spare key 😅 when opening and closing the door, the lock keeps randomly engaging

I would start by replacing the battery in the key FOB. If it is loosing power it may cause the issue you are describing. Hope this helps you out.
