Electrical issue after installing bavsound

255zr · 05-06-2016, 07:49 PM

I just installed my bavsound speakers (great sound!!!).

However, while putting back together the driver door cover something seems to have happened to the electric window and mirror switch. The lights work, the central locking works, but the windows won't go back up nor the mirror adjust. I had no problem on the passenger side. Tried to unplug and plug numerous times, but to no avail.

Anything easy and stupid i'm missing? Any suggestions? Kind of sucks as i'm a 3 hour drive from home with the window open.

Thanks

Did you go hunting for fuses ? Although i doubt it if the others are working.

unplug and look at each plug for damage... you might've bent a pin or two

^ Fuses...that would be my guess as well.

See if it works if you hold the switch up or down for a couple of seconds. I know it sounds weird, but this is what happened with mine.
