smoothdriver108 Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Hi 96 Escort Zetec, O/S electric window no longer works. Switch is OK, I think the problem is the terminal/connector to the switch. Do i need to replace the whole piece of wiring from door to switch ? tia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btmaldon Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 That's a common problem. Have you tested the connections. In the past I have got a small screwdriver in and moved the connections around so the get a better purchase on the pins from the switch. If it is not the connections it could be where the wiring goes into the door. The wiring may have broken where the door opens and closes as it can become brittle.

smoothdriver108 Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 Hi thanks for the tip. If I waddle the wires around inside the connector the little light on the switch flashes briefly, I will try a small screwdriver in there.

smoothdriver108 Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 That's fixed it - the connections inside the terminal were pushed back - prising them back with a screw driver did the trick. Many thanks Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
