I have a 2010 Clubman S. I have problems with my windows roilling up and sown, the brake pad sensors, had the turbo blow on me and now the back doors are starting in. The drivers side door only open every once in a while. I here no sounds at all the handle button just depresses and that it. feels like there is a short or something. Then yeasterday my rear window wipers started going all wonky. the dirvers side now stops in the up position and the passenger goes once when you turn them on and three times when you turn them off. Good god!!
thanks for any help

could have a leak and have water in harness back there. I would get that rear door not opening fixed ASAP, cause if it stays closed you'll play HELL getting it fixed as it needs to be open to pull covers off to access harness and switches.

 

Any diagrams to pull the cover? The next time I get it open Ill pull it off.

Fix what you can and sell it to Carmax.

 

why sell it? Fix what's wrong and keep driving it.

 

So it seems only the fob opens the rear doors. Neither of the door handle activators work properly.

 

Fold back seats down, crawl in back and just grab door trim and pull hard it will pop off. Sounds like both rear door handles are not working . They are only around $56 a piece at MiniMania. You can switch them out yourself once you get the trim panels off. You will be able to see where the handles mount. To confirm that it is the switch in the handle, unplug the electrical connector from the handle to the wire harness and put a flat blade screwdriver in the end still attached to the harness and contact the two pins you see in there. Your door latch should then activate signifying then that the handle switch is indeed bad. Be careful and use the correct # 27 torx bit to remove the two screws that attach the handle to the door skin from the inside. Hope they unscrew easily because those screws go into brass threaded inserts that are imbedded in the plastic inside the handle. If you strip them they will just spin in the handle and your only other option is to drill the screw heads out to remove the door handle (ask me how I know that) another **** poor example of the engineering that goes into these cars.

 

Corcorrand, thanks for the great advice.

 

Check the barn door locks, might not be just the handles. Info below.
