I should had heard bells and whistles and seen flags waving when I took off the driver’s door panel. Being a little shy on electrical matters I just shrugged my shoulders and ignored the signs.
As I was taking off the other door panels I found what I would have expected to find in the driver’s door- connectors that allowed me to disconnect the actuators. That wasn’t the case in the driver’s door. The wire colors at the actuator were solid blue, green, black, white, and a fifth brown one. These were bundled and taped up and secured to the door in a proper fashion. Odd I thought at the time, but plowed on after identifying each wire by a continuity test from the proper color up stream to the wire going into the actuator.
So as I am disconnecting the other door panels and seeing how everything is so nice and tidy and able to be disconnected just like you would expect I went back to the driver’s door.
As I unwrapped the tape I found that there was a section of wire spliced in for each of the four wires associated with the actuator. Someone had been there before me and cut out the connector and spliced in the new wire section. So I don’t even know if the actuator is the proper one or that the wires are connected properly to that actuator.
So I think I will go to the Pull and Pay and see if they still have that 93 944 that I have been feeding on. I think it would be best if I tried to put everything back to the original set up before moving forward with the trouble shooting.
Edit: I guess I just plain ignored the a fifth wire on the actuator !! The wiring diagram plainly shows that a fifth wire is indeed involved with this circuit and my fifth wire is just hanging in the breeze now that the tape is removed. Rather than try to figure out what is going on with the actuator wires (the color of which have no correlation to the diagram) I am moving forward with my planned trip to the Pull and Pay.
