actually, come to think of it, I'm changing the door, will all the window mechanism come out with the quarter light window all in one?

absolutely at the end of my f*&^%$g tether with this thing now, its about 2 days away from being torched

finally got the all the stuff of the old door, got door off, got the replacement one on, got all the stuff back into it, now the door latch is f'ing about, sometimes it'll shut, sometimes it won't, when it does shut, it won't lock or alarm now, f'ing great, only changing the door because of a couple of dents on the top of it, other than that it was fine, shut and locked with no problems, sick to death of it now

Hi.

The Pluriel doors do differ in some way to the standard 4 door C3, so anyone who removed a C3 door or window or window motor may not be 100% sure that the pluriel is identical.

Maybe the locking solenoid on the new door is busted? You may have to swap them over?

There is a topic for locks and there are some photos there which may point you in the right direction for a pluriel 2 door configuration.

:D :D :D cheers Arthur

i think i probably posted in the wrong section then, d'oh! my bad......

the replacement door never came with anything except the loom, everything else i changed over

wondering now if we reassembled the door handle properly, as in when we removed it, we found out that you have to use a screwdriver to prise back the white lever, so now wondering if we needed to retention the spring somehow as I'm wondering if, even though the door is shut, its not tensioned up enough to let the electric brain know its shut, if that makes sense?

also, on the centre dash, it comes up as "front left door open", even though its closed, not sure if that helps, it never before we changed doors
