The A pillar exterior trim is a common water ingress failure point the clips have a seal which let's go |

There’s a connector behind the trim by throttle pedal.

Had half an hour free this morning so whipped out the drivers seat and the sill trim cover to expose the drivers side loom.

Found the problem, corroded connector in the lower A pillar drivers side, looks like a couple of pins have broken off as well.

Yep…mounted vertically so the water getting in just ran down the wiring and sat in the connector.
