    You could de-pin the connector & solder a new wire between the contact & loom wire. Otherwise just replace the connector. That part of the loom usually has enough slack to reach.

    Most likely either the discs or pad set are the wrong part. Check the discs are the correct thickness ? If they are then the supplier is providing the wrong pad set.

    If a 5 watt bulb illuminates across pins 1 & 6 of the switch pack connector, it's not an earth problem.

    SDD might do it, but never tried because I don't have an L322. You could get an LR Nav screen & temporarily revert to that to configure the car. Then put the aftermarket radio back in, although I wonder if that's what's causing the issues ??

    If the switchpack has a short, or the 12V feed has high resistance, then you will see 12V with it unplugged, but it could drop when plugged in. A 5W bulb is a good test if you cannot access the rear of the plug. Remember it could also be a...

    Fuse-1 feeds lots of things. With the fuse removed the contacts will always have 12V on one side & 0V on the other. Fault finding the window switch pack needs the fuse installed, or it cannot work !! Ordered a Nanocom yet ??
