Of course I had to go out and play with it.

Now what I have is

1) Passenger door opening does not turn on interior lighting but drivers side does

2) Drivers side door window now will not lower no matter what

3) Passenger door window will lower with center switch or top opening, but drivers will not for either.

4) I get one beep if I lock the car with key (FOB DOA), but two beeps upon opening. Car starts fine.

This is a head scratcher

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.
