Default Need Help Lambo tC electrical issue.!!!

We got a tC with lambo doors in service today that has an electric issue surrounding the lambo doors. It is draining the battery!
Has anyone else had problems with this? What was the problem?

Alignment seems to be fine! I am having them check for a grounding issue! Can you guys give me some input!

If the wiring was spliced and extended, I would check all of the splices.
You may have to remove the doors and check everything they topuched to do the vertical doors.

Yah, I would look for a ground somewhere in the wiring for the door.

electrical issue while dealing with a mechanical thing....

hmm.. yeah... interesting... sounds like a ground... whose car, and who installed it?

technically, the wiring has enough length to be pulled thru without needing to splice or extend any wires.

i'd check in the immediate vicinity of the hinge area as to what could've happened during the install.

Maybe they didn't put enough slack in the wiring when they threaded it through the hinge and it pulled out of it's alignment somewhere?

Just guessing....
