hey guys. just had the weirdest experience and was hoping you guys could throw in a helping hand.
So i just bought a 2002 jetta tdi for my dad. i have a lot of experience with these. but not in this area.
So the window was stuck. took apart drivers door and found the wire was wrapped around the motor a couple of times. i have plenty of spares so i changed the whole inner panel. tried to undo all windows, nothing. tried my window, nothing. unplugged clip for window motor and plugged back in , worked fine. but only my window, i cant undo the passenger window from the drivers side, but i can if i use the switch on the passenger side. so i tried a different window switch, window motor and still no luck, checked fuse 14 and its good. im leaning towards this being more of the door lock actuator and that "my 3$ fix forum".
the weird thing is i can unlock every door with no problem except drivers, let me know what you guys think? i did dielectric grease almost all my connectors in the door but didnt help. im stuck here....
