How to solve the wiring problems of the rear tailgate of the Fiat Grande Punto

Model: Fiat Punto MK 3, Punto EVO, 199, Grandepunto - Years 2005-2018
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video we can see how to repair the wires in the rear door connector of the Fiat Grande Punto. In fact, over the years, opening and closing the trunk often causes these wires to break, resulting in various anomalies with the lights, third brake light, rear wiper, and even the trunk interior light. We need to check the electrical cables that pass through the rubber connector located on the left side of the rear door. Once this connector is opened, it shows us how the cables are very damaged, frayed, and cut. If we do not feel comfortable soldering wire by wire (which is actually an operation that requires skill and equipment), we can try using the kit with the code B00GJR87EY on Amazon, where we find the sleeve complete with all the wires that only need to be connected (an operation not suitable for everyone, but still simpler and does not require equipment), priced at 52.88 euros, with free delivery for Prime customers. There is a third option: the electrician!
