Tailhatch wiring is an ongoing niggle with my Xantia estate.
As well as hrw, wiper, lock motor and number plate lights the boot lid also hosts auxiliary tail lamps and reversing lights. Feed and return cables are in flexible conduits routed alongside both hinges. Cables have insufficient 'flex' and conductors break and items fail randomly. ATM the HRW is out.
So far the indy has simply repaired or spliced the cables but sooner or later I'm going to have to strip out boot trim and replace one or two if the more critical runs. Ideally I'd replace the entire loom sections on both sides back to the junctions in rear wing but that's just too much stripping.
