Thanks mate.....hopefully this'll help others with Yeti door issues! 👊
-
BOOM!!!....😃.....followed the above instructions - and after numerous click and groans with the initial setup (12v to grey/yellow and to blue) ...I reversed the sequence as suggested - 12v to the common green/yellow and 0v to the other two and Boom! ...the door popped open...as did my jaw! ) .....was finally able to access the cursed door loom and sure enough - two small snapped wires ....heck of a job repairing them as only had about 40mm of wire to play with but just about had enough to extend / solder and heatshrink .......doors (front and rear) now locking/unlocking...windows working...adjustable mirror and mirror indicator all good 👍 To say I'm pleased is an understatement ....first posted about this in December and its been doing my nut in all winter - no-one appeared to have ever had the same problem - or if they had there was no record of it and any forums/ youtube videos / facebook groups despite months of searching......... MOT due later this week so had resigned myself to automatic failure and hefty auto sparks bill .....last chance saloon - and it worked! Can't thank you enough Pete......absolute legend mate.....several virtual pints coming your way! 👊 🍻 Cheers!

Yep (hopefully!)....unplug 20-way connector.....link thick brown to the common green/yellow......and thick red/yellow to the blue - and then the grey/yellow....- and then reverse that sequence if required......fingers crossed!
-
Preliminary test shows power to the thick red/yellow - and the thick brown earth also seems ok! ...surprised me as I assumed one/both of these would be damaged or broken in the door loom?.........the wires in the 20-way connector correspond with your description Pete - so that was reassuring! - only problem is how do I access the ends of them to test or apply voltage to them?......they are tucked up and under in the multiplug....am I missing something?.....apart from common sense! )
-
That's great Pete!...thanks very much - ...currently away in my camper for a couple of days, so will work through these steps when I get back ....at least I know where to start now! 😎 👍

Cant get at the rubber boot mate.......door locked shut right hand drive - i was referring to the passenger side controls on the drivers door
-
Unfortunately disconnecting the battery didn't work for me mate.............I have however managed to get the door card off (with the passenger set still in situ!) ....again I have very little 12v electrical knowledge but would it be possible to run a temp wire directly from the battery just to get the door to unlock?......if so which wire should I be running it to?...(see pics)....is the thick red/yellow the main feed? (im assuming the main feed is broken).... cheers
-
not sure what that would do....but i'll try anything at the moment!! 🙂
-
no such luck ! ......😟
-
Thanks for the reply Pete....and I fear you may be right.....I followed J.R.s tip but there are no obvious signs of damage / cracks in the drivers door loom....and the fact that all the electrics on the N/S are out (doors / mirror adjustment / heated mirror / alarm led) ..makes me suspect it is indeed the loom on that side..........problem is of course, how the heck do i get at it?!..... ive no real idea how the locking electrics work but could a car locksmith maybe spring the door for me?...... cheers again for the help
-
Thanks J.R. ........Id assumed the loop fracture would be on the passenger side as all electrics on the drivers side are ok....but will definitely investigate that!

HI all, My issue is that i cant access the passenger side door loom...the sub-zero cold snap lead to the electrics on that side playing up ...windows wouldn't come down, electric mirror wouldn't adjust and the doors (front and rear) wouldn't lock - seemed to right itself with the help of multiple opening/closing/locking - but now in limbo as the doors are permanently locked - no amount of fiddling with the fob / centre console release / central locking fuse etc makes any difference - doors are locked shut - so i cant actually get at the loom and im now in no mans land .....any suggestions would be very gratefully received,,,,,,
