[V8] 1990 V8 Quattro locks question

[Kneale Brownson]

Is your door wiring all individual wires you can see or are wires wrapped
in bundles you cannot see into.  I ask because my 200q20v had wires broken
inside the wrapped stuff that were not inspectable without disassembling
the wrapped harnesses.  I replaced every wire but the speaker stuff in that
driver door.  Solved a lot of funky electricals like intermittent windows
and sunroof, no door lock heating, etc.
