[Driver side deadlock, possible electric problem]

My superb developed fault on 20/01/18,the interior lights would not come on when n/s rear door was opened. This in turn led to no door open warning on maxidot and also same door would not lock with remote fob,the window on same door would not operate with door button or main driver console button. The alarm armed red light on drivers door was sticking on when car locked but then began flashing as normal about 30 seconds later,however alarm did go off when I opened faulty unlocked door. I took it to my trusted and brilliant Indy garage auto electrician today and he found that there was 3 broken wires on FRONT N/S door,these are situated inside rubber boot at inside of door. The car is only just over 2 years old (out of warranty as used as taxi with 71k on clock. He repaired these wires but recommended I buy a new wiring loom as wires are very brittle with insulation exposed(bone dry though) and who knows when they will break at brittle parts. All is well now and back to full functionality and I have ordered a new loom £109.53 + vat,auto electrician says any problems with rear doors and it's almost certain that the problem lies within the wiring on front doors as rear doors are only slave units,I hope this info helps

Thank you for this. A concise answer and almost exactly the same issues as mine.
