Drivers door button

[Bigboz]

Morning gents,

My Drivers door opening button sometimes works and sometimes does not. All other electrics seem to work fine. Is it likely to be a dodgy connection or something and spose I will need to get behind it to have a look?

Thanks in advance.

More than likely to be corroded connection behind the door. Take off the inner door card - easy job, about 6(?) Allen Head bolts - then disconnect and clean all the multi-pin connectors with your wifes toothbrush and some WD40 or Electrical contact cleaner.

The wifes toothbrush comes in handy for many jobs,used it for getting some dog poo of me boots yesterday!

Another possible cause is either dampness or a dry-joint in the door control bx in the boot.

Check the connections inside the door panel first though.
