Odd solution to an odd door connection problem

Your issue is 100% a bent pin.

Fudge. Looks like I'll be out in the heat today. Appreciate it.

And can I just add, MAN, I am so happy own a vehicle that has been engineered to such tight tolerances that the metallic electrical interfaces can be taken down to the size of a human hair.

Most importantly, the one that I cannot see or easily access, and are meant to be manipulated by me.

Really amazing engineering and technological advances we have in these fine machines.

Stay Blessed Jeep Owners.

Problem solved. Here's a pic of the bent pins. Crazy that they don't break off. I had 5 of em.

Be super careful when plugging your door back in.

I see one bent pin top right. I'm having a problem with my drivers side rear passenger door.

It's been quite a while since I saw this post, but zooming in I see 5 or 6 that are bent.

Even being off the slightest bit they won't seat properly. It's amazing how shoddy the design of this is.

Awe heck, just when I am about to comment that the rear door plugs seem so much better & why couldn't they follow that basic design... or heaven forbid similar to the JKU plugs (2007-2018 era). Lord knows I popped those on & off in a hurry a thousand times!

I had my harness replaced for the second time . The harness was getting caught in the door and bending. I finally figured it out when I was on the opposite side of the car and looked at the harness.
