in a different thread, Boxster window problem, I placed a photo of the internal printed wiring board that the main harness connects to. Internal switch connections are also routed via the printed wiring board to this connector.

my only experience was that the solder joints were bad and by reflowing the solder, my intermittant window problem was solved. I found this out during the process of wiggling the connector to remove the harness. had the battery connected. which is a no no for any electrical work/repair.

you may want to wiggle the harness by the connector as well as the connector and pushing up the wires at the same time and see if the window/door light comes on/off.
