Hi, Thankyou for taking the time to read this and possibly point me in the right direction.
I have a VT Senator full electrics.
These are my issues: Passenger Rear Door. - speaker does not work. - central lock does not work - electric window does not go DOWN. - electric window DOES however go UP. ONLY when operated at the door switch. Not console.
Drivers Rear Door - speaker and central locking work fine. - electric window does not go UP. - electric window DOES go DOWN with either the main console switch or the door switch.
Things do not change when I switch over the two door switches so that eliminates the door switches being the issue. As the two doors are doing opposite things with the electric windows.
I have replaced the centre console switch with a new genuine Holden one. BUT maybe its a faulty one? Could this be the cause of the problems?
Cheers Jason |

Sounds like a wiring issue. My bet would be the rear door harnesses where they hinge in the pillar area.
I would start by doing a continuity test at the body loom side of the rear door connector (in the B-pillar) and see if its OK out to the end of the line (ie check the speaker wires at the speaker end, down to the car side of the rear door plug.
As for the windows, you have 2 wires from the main switch to the rear switch (they are constant earth until the switch is moved, then one becomes +). There is a 3rd wire, from the kiddy lock to the rear door switch. It is 12V+ when "on" and 0V when locked. Thats 3 supply wires at the switch - the other 2 on the switch head to the motor.
If you had a break in one of the wires from the main switch to the rear door, then the window will not go up or down. However, if the kiddy wire is fine, it will operate in only 1 direction (it will have + from the kiddy circuit, and earth from one side of the pair of wires from the main switch).
It may be simpler just to change the rear door harnesses completely.
