Subject:      Can front impact cause electrical damage?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

As previously posted, my 90 Westy automatic was hit right smack on the
driver side front signal light.  The visible damage was a broken signal
light cover, very small dent near the signal light and the driver side
bumper was broken off.  (The Scion car that backed into me sustained over
$2,500 in damages!)

Since the accident, my driver side automatic door will lock and unlock
repeatedly until I close it, but on the passenger side, the locks work
perfectly.  Also I've discovered that my adjustable mirrors now only work
manually, and I don't know whether or not the window and mirror defrosters
work, and don't know how to test them in warm weather.

Is there any wiring in that area that could have come loose?  Could any of
these electrical problems have been caused by the impact?
