How to fix the "side door open" message on an Opel Movano

Model: Vauxhall Movano MK 2, Movano B - Years 2010-2021
Part: Car door

It often happens on commercial vehicles with sliding side doors that the contact fails, and this happens not only on the Opel/Vauxhall Movano, but also on the corresponding Nissan and Renault models. The YouTuber shows us that the problem is the lack of contact between the two white and brown poles of the sliding doors, and suggests a very simple solution to remedy this, by connecting the two poles so that they can always stay together. It seems like too simple of an idea to work, but it does, and it is also very easy to implement, just remove the connector from the pillar, remove the white wire from its housing and connect it to the brown wire creating a double housing.
