Help, 2004 Passenger Door

Chuck Baader · Aug 20, 2015

Have disassembled and installed a window regulator. I am now reassembling th e interior trim and have a question. On my car, there are speakers by the door handle and a wire extending about half way down the door. Nothing to attach it to....Have I lost a wire behind the steel panel?

Second question, on the yellow connector to the window motor, there is a two wire connector, yellow/black, with no where to go. I don't remember if/where it attaches...any help appreciated.

Here's my write-up from a few years ago - maybe the pictures will help. It's on the driver's door, but maybe you can see the wires in the photo and figure out where yours are supposed to go. As I recall, every wire went somewhere with no extras dangling about.

Thanks, David. Very helpful. One question, though. In your first picture, there is a yellow/black wire at the bottom....where does it go?

Second, got everything back together sans interior door card and tried lock/handle/unlock and everything was fine. Installed door card and the damn door won't open from either side. Suggestions?

On page one you can see that wire. On page 5 the yellow plug is removed from the window motor and the yellow/blk pair is that one at the bottom that goes through the rubber busing in the metal plate. I think it's one of the ones shown in the lower photo on page 17, but I can't tell which one.

Finally got back to looking at this. Door: will not open from inside or outside!!! Worked great until I installed the inner trim panel.....suggestions?????

Is there tension on the inside lever? perhaps the cable is not properly connected to the lever/handle? The outside handle also works via cable connected on the handle, it is held in place by the "thumb button" . there is an allen head set screw accessible from the door jam that will release the thumb button for access.
Good luck!

Yes, tension on inside handle. Understand thumb button, but if door won't open you can't access that.
