Default Help help help 😭😭😭😭😭

I have a big problem due to a wire I think

First is that climate control radio and wing mirrors motors do not work will not power up
Thot it was an earth problem well ruled that out then I thot is there a fuse out no.

So now I have found out that the ignition wire for radio climate control and few others has no power if I jump that wire from the batt I get power to every thing (I have a sub in car so I can just go in to my amp mean power leed) I have taking my dash apart not to the full but to keep me driving the car.

So what I need help with is that if anyone knows where that little grren/white wire goes so I can find the problem it looks like it goes in to the mean loom and fuse box but fuses are all fine.

Please help am stuck been at this for 2 weeks now getting very up set about it
Thanks to those that can help in anyway or form

If youre getting weird electrical issues have you checked if the plenums are clear where the ecu sits? A wet ecu can throw up all sorts of issues.

How did you check the fuse, did you use a meter on volts and check for power either side of the fuse? I will have to find the Haynes tomorrow, which connector are you using to apply power?

Re-check the 5amp fuse 11 in the passenger fuse panel, that supplies the power to those items.

the Light Green/White lead is on one side of the 5Amp fuse 11 in the interior
fuse box. if connecting that to the battery makes everything work then either
fuse 11 is faulty or the Light Green wire on the other side of this fuse is not receiving 12V from the ignition switch to which it should be connected.

Hi,
Have you fitted a new radio or altered the wiring at the back of your radio for any reason ?
