My 1996 124 Diesel Kombi has intermittent door electrical problems.

Furthermore it looks as if the door might have been strained at some time. I'm in half a mind to change the loom inside the door. Other non Merc cars I've had experience with have a connector just inside the car itself somewhere around the base of the A post. This allows you to replace just the sub loom in the door.

I would substitute this with a second hand item assuming new was pricey.

To save me from stripping bits of interior out in a futile search for something that does not exist can anybody please confirm the existence and position of the connector(s) if indeed there is such a thing

Many thanks,

Keith

I had a intermittent in the door of my silver '87 300D (R.I.P.).
I couldn't find any connector in the loom so I replace the wires individually using a soldering iron and heat shrink tubing over the joints for insulation.
I remember peeling off some black stuff wrapped over the wires. It was a good hours work after I had all the materials ready.

Speaking of that, I think I have another problem with my blue 300D, my FR seat is blowing fuses. MB wire from that era used crappy insulation. Opening and closing the door flexes it and causes it to disintegrate.
