Default 91 200 20v power window circuit breakers

Has anyone ever had any issues with these circuit breakers? My driver's window works, but suddenly, none of the other windows work from any switch. I switched/tested the circuit breakers, and they both appear to work fine. In addition, my alarm can not be activated from locking the driver's door, but it works when locking the passenger door. My sense is a power lead coming into the driver's door has been compromised, but I won't know until I break into the door. Anyone had any similar issues?

TIA,
Jim

Lots and lots of experiences reported with breakdown of the insulation on the wires in the driver doorjamb. For example, before I replaced all those wires, I couldn't run the sunroof or windows unless the door was partway open. Not fully open, but partway.

When I took out the wires, I found many that were compromised that couldn't be seen with a casual observation of what's inside the rubber bellows. The wires had to be taken apart and inspected to see some of the failures-in-progress.

How does your defroster for your mirrors and power mirrors work? Those are in the same nest of wires

Default I was going to say what Kneale said...

When I had my door panel off I looked at the wires and they weren't pretty. Lots of cracked insulation. Does anyone know of a good product to re-insulate them with other than electrical tape? I'm going to be changing the window seal and would like to do some preventative maintainence while I'm in there.

How the heck have you been Jim? I was thinking of you the other week when I bought stainless cap nuts for my wastegate cap. ;-)

Default Things are good here..

Getting used to having a youngin' and still fine tuning the Avant. I can understand downsizing. I hope you're at least keeping the 5k though. Your 200 should be easy to sell. Def one of the nice ones and it's a good color!
