Default Water leak part 2

Sealed everything in sight and still the water gets in. Argh.... now the doors won't lock on the key but will unlock. What the actual... is happening? Please help anyone, now getting distressed. Dave.

Hi Dave,

Look at the wiring entry point into the driver's door through a flexible rubber tube and check the Lighting Switch Module's connector for water damage. These both may be being affected by the water ingress.

The other day I came across a technical bulletin concerning rainwater getting in through the door mirror mounting.
