Been bending my pins back and forth all summer to get the door contols to function. Each time I plug the door back in something different wouldn't work. Could never really tell which pins weren't lining up. They all look pretty close to straight.
Ended up taking two small pieces of Scotch tape and putting them across the female side of the door harness. Plugged into the driver's door male side. Pulled down the white lever that locks them into place. Didn't pull it down fully but just enough to make some contact. Release the white lever and pulled apart.
The pins punctured the Scotch tape and could now see which pins weren't going into the correct slot on the female side. A couple were bent slightly and going into the hole just above where they were supposed to be. Bent the 2-3 pins I needed and now my proximity sensor and passenger mirror work again.
