fixed a billion of these, but they're not too tough with a good pick set and wire, soldier,shrink-wrap, and a quality pinpoint iron. The biggest struggle is pulling the harness into the door and snaking it out below the regulator, you must unplug your power window motor to get enough slack to have plenty of space to properly repair the wires with jumpers of the same size. The best method is to de-pin the wires one at a time from the weather plug and install a full length jumper with new pin back into the plug. Your soldier point should be well inside the door to avoid flexing your repair joints for a long lasting ( if not permanent ) repair

That's SAF to know that is what is happening behind open/closed doors. Could this be a symptom of the elusive losing the radio and upper navigation LED as well as having the static white noise from the speaker. I know the fix for this was an IOD fuse swap but my fuse was still good.
