    Central Locking and Power Mirror Problem



    The above images are not from my car, just what I found on internet to describe my problem.

    Central locking was making a buzzing noise when I lock or unlock, but never worked. So I took out the module behind the driver's side speaker and took a good look at it and I did not see any obvious problems like burned or broken parts.

    So I removed the C404(C405?) connector from the driver's side. It's what connects all the wires from the door to the body. There were slight corrosion of the pins and one of the pins broke off as I was dusting off the corrosions. After reinserted the connectors, I did not get anymore buzzing noise from the central locking module. So I figured I've made more trouble. I checked everything that has to do with wires coming from the door, like power windows, interior light sensor. Everything works fine except the power mirror control.

    My question is how do I fix the pins? Can I replace the whole male part of the connector? Where can I buy the parts(cheap)?

    Im not sure what pins they are exactly. You can try to replace the hole connector by splicing one from a used car. Or if its just 1 or 2 pins you can try to recrimp some pins onto the wire and pushing the pins back into their retainers.

    Pull a pin out and compare to pins at www.newark.com or www.digikey.com. try looking at Molex pins first.
