Very sorry guys, really didn't know what else to call it 😂

Anyway been at it again for a good 10 minutes and still couldn't get it out, really need to find the loose wire. 

Just had another good look at the door and I think I might be able buy the whole loom wire and just replace it all. I think it might take couple hours.

Again, if anyone has a better idea on what I should do then I'm all ears.

Apologies unifox, only just seen your first post regarding replacing.

Should I just get that one I linked?

Just compare the wire i have in door to the one I linked and my mine has alot more wires so will need to look around for one.

Just had a look on ebay and they all seem less wires than mine, am i missing something?

This is mine:

Now, that's the 2nd time this week I've seen the inside of a Mk2 door, mine getting the hinge strap replaced...

Not all of them have electric rear windows. 

Yeah that is the wires I am missing, the ones for electric windows 

I have sent ford an email, waiting fir them to get back to me.

At the meantime I will keep looking around

Can you afford it? Do you want it? Do you need it? If answer is yes to all, then go get it...

i have just purchased it, il update this thread on how i get on. hopefully nothing gets in the way.

Ok guys, the wire has turned up now.

Question is what is the best way to replace the wires?

My original plan was to try feed the wires through where the rubber boots are but then I noticed another connector which I believe goes inside the door. 

I have seen some bolts that are around the edges and just wondering if taking them off would be my best option? 

I just don't want any surprises like something will fall out and I can't put it back in or something like that.

Hope someone can help please

i am guessing i will need to take the door off?

Awesome!! Thank you 🙂

just one more question and il crack on it.

Do I need to tape the window on up/closed position first? I keep thinking the window might slip down.

There is no reason for you to remove the window regulator and therefore the window will not slip down.

Ok thank you again

The window regulator is connected to that panel.  You will need to lower the window, unbolt it from the regulator through holes behind foam pads, then tape it to the top of the door, before being able to remove the panel & regulator together.

hhmmmm...... thank you, just thinking how that can be done as there is no power going to that door at all 😞 

ok i have an idea, since i am replacing the whole wire, i was thinking about cutting the motor wire and connecting it to a battey but theres alot of wires connected to the motor though, can anyone tell me which 2 wires i need to connect to a battery please?

if i had to guess, i would have thought its the bottom 2 wires ( brown and black)

Good idea.  I don't know which wires it is though, and wouldn't really like to just guess.

The alternative would be to plug the new loom in between the door pillar and window motor.  Just let it hang in front of the panel for now.
