Chronic Defect, Simple Solution?!

[EDDYSW20]

Sahar,
There could be a simple solution to this. It looks like your timing has been retarded beyond its capability to burn the compressed fuel mixture. Either way, this thread was actually meant to inform all of the defect and solution after solving it, not to address the issue or trying to solve it..... I hope you can open another thread for this, then more sifu can reach out to your concern, especially if you put it an exciting title! hahaha. For the time being I say you check and center the distributor back to dead center, and clean the arm again. Update us on a new thread..... Hope this works out for you....

Symptom:

1. Brake lights did not work.
2. Power windows did not work.

Defect:

This defect was man-made!! Painter at the paint shop connected the antenna plug onto the rear light connector! They actually fit! Anyway, reconnected antenna-to-antenna and light-to-light and power window was back alive.

Thanks for the compliments, another one I just remembered....

Symptom:

1. Power window operation intermittent.
2. Door lock operation also intermittent.
3. Door locks operate by itself
4. Checked the door harness until connector and all looked fine.
5. Fuses and all were fine.

Defect:

Opened the door harness again. Checked and all looked fine yet again. So, opened up the harness and did a 'kink' test one by one, from door control panel to both connectors. Found a few wires with the internal wire strands separated. Dalam putus, luar cantek! Cut the insulation and spliced the wires and all problems solved.

Note: Kink test is when you make a loop or a sharp 'U' throughout each wire, and confirm internal wire has separated when the 'U' turns into a 'V'.....
