Figured out an issue with my power windows on my 97 acura integra ls 4 door. Turns out the wiring harness to all 4 doors are ****. Multiple wires are pulling out of each of the clips. (Odd that every single door is having this happen, but whatever). Currently looking up my options to fix this, but will have to replace 1 clip for sure. There is no integra in any of the junkyards near where I live (of course), but plenty of hondas. Wondering if anyone knows of a honda (or acura) that would have a compatable wire harness that i can swap into my Teggy. Photo added to show wires coming out. Happening to every harness.

I plan to repair what I can, but I know one connector is fried so it will need replaced. Just not sure what other year/model car i can snag one off that will fit.
also, i only looked at the connectors so im hoping nothing deeper in the harness has an issue...

That really is odd that the pins would be all pushed out. But, if they used a bunch of faulty pins at the factory install????
Separation tends to make electricity spark or heat up the barely connected. Spark produces heat and melts the connector.
Take a look at the pins. There should be a small flap at the base of the pin which is bent out.
It helps the pin to stay in the connector. If it is not there or bent in then the pins would fall out.
Good luck on this one.

You can get connectors at Fastenal. I'd like to see a picture of one of these where the pins are coming out. Something is odd. I ran my own repair facility for more than 40 years and we specialized in electrical and never seen anything like what you describe.

Front driver is worse, but this is rear driver side. All of them pretty much look like this (wires pulled out). I havent look too much farther into the harnesses to see how bad they are...

Sorry, I thought it was the pins. The picture, you show, is more like the wires are very corroded and dirty.
Guess age and wear would be the cause of this. Electrical spray cleaner might help to clear up some of the dirt and expose what really needs repair.
Some wires might need to be re-pinned for the connector. Others may be too short and need extensions.
I am sorry for your troubles. Good luck to you.
