Electrics any thoughts? E320

Hi guys,

Just noticed that the sunroof, wing mirrors, central locking and electric windows dont work with the driver door closed. They all work as soon as I open the the drivers front door though. Any thoughts on what the problem might be? Also does anyone know where i can get some replacement door cards and "roof carpet" the ones currently installed have oil n dust could do with replacements (cloth currently fitted could do with leather to match the recaro seats).

For the sunroof and windows, check that fuse 11 is intact. The locking and windows are likely to be corrosion in the plug and socket in the A pillar where the door loom plugs in.
Repair the locking by performing my "red/black wire" modification.
Use the forum search function to search for "red AND black" and my username.
