Checking connector, A-pillar, oxidation

Checking connector, A-pillar, oxidation

Note! Check first that no relevant diagnostic trouble codes are generated before this symptom test is started.

Moisture may cause corrosion in the A-pillar' connector. As a result of this, a number of electrical functions in the vehicle may be affected.
Check the A-pillar's connector, both left and right side of vehicle, for oxidation.

Hint: It may be difficult to detect corrosion, therefore inspect carefully. Oxidation is detected only by a small dark dot on the A-pillar' connector, male.

If no oxidation is detected, add low-temperature lubricant to prevent oxidation in the future.
If oxidation is detected, the A-pillar's connector should be replaced on both left and right side.
Remedy as necessary.
