Re: should I add wire to door harness repair
If you have access to the wiring diagrams, they give the wire size in circular mils. /g/eurovanupdate/files/vw.t4.wd.48.pdf is an example.? Most have a close standard gauge.? If in

Re: should I add wire to door harness repair
One thing some of us found years ago is that the loom is tie wrapped to a
bracket just inside the cab.
Thanks Duane I heard others have just clip the tie wrap and let it hang.

Whatever you can do to prevent bending will help.? One thing some of us found years ago is that the loom is tie wrapped to a bracket just inside the cab.? That causes it to bend instead of 'float'

Mike, Justin thanks for the replies. My mirrors stopped working a number of

Re: should I add wire to door harness repair
There is one easy way to tell: peel back the elbow boot where the wires run and see if you find broken wires. 9.5/10 times that’s the problem and the location.

Re: Weird problem with all automatic door latches
Same issue happens without power locks too. I have replaced the latch pieces on both doors. Poor design on the coil/wire. The spring idea is better than the o-ring option people have posted.

Re: Weird problem with all automatic door latches

Re: should I add wire to door harness repair
Might I ask if you need this repair due to your door locks going up and down on their own? My 2002 Eurovan MV developed this problem recently and is unusable until I find a solution. I am told that it

Re: Weird problem with all automatic door latches
Ingenious! Have you found a place to buy such a spring? And how to remove the lock handle when it continues to go up and down?

Re: Weird problem with all automatic door latches
Did you ever solve this? My 2002 Eurovan MV locks are all going crazy, and they NEVER stop—i.e., do not lock in the down position, they just keep going!

Re: Booster for break
That's what I thought until I got some of the hose.? You can use the old end pieces and check valve.? Don't even need any clamps.? Just make sure you don't put a kink in the hose.? Cost is about

Re: Booster for break
?
It’s a molded hose with a check valve in it. I think the whole thing has to come as a single piece.. Attached is a more complete picture.

Re: Booster for break
If it's the main line for the brake booster, you should be able to use Gates 27231 vacuum hose.

Hi Radek,
As far as I know, the secondary air injection system only operates for the first 60 or 90 seconds of a cold start. It pumps air into the exhaust flow to help the catalytic converter convert
