Front Passenger Side Power Everything Don't Work

56kz2slow · February 17, 2011

Got a weird electrical problem. Nothing electrical works on the front passenger side door, that is: power mirrors, power locks, power window. Only thing working is the right flasher in the mirror.

I swapped C1 breaker under the dashboard, left of steering. On the driver side fuse panel, I checked the fuse for the passenger side module, and all those pertaining to locks and windows.

Driver side and both back doors work as normal.

I'm going to take the door skin off this weekend to make sure all the connections are connected, but I'm looking for other ideas too.

Thanks,

Marc...

Bump.

Did you figure it out?

No, I have not.

Decided not to start taking stuff apart unless I would have an idea where to start. I bring it to a friend, he's a Dodge mechanic, but good with electrical problems. However without wiring diagrams, not sure how much troubleshooting he can actually do.

Do your light switches light up on the pass. door?

I had that problem with my previous 2003 drivers door. Turned out to be the controls. Once replaced, everything was golden

I'm not questioning you here, just asking myself some troubleshooting questions out loud here.

The power locks, power windows can be controlled by both the driver door and passenger door, if it was the controls, should they work from the driver side controls which works for the other 3 doors?

The power mirrors can only be controlled by the driver side, the driver side mirror can be adjusted and folded, but not the passenger side. Since there is no controls for that on the passenger side, would that rule out the controls?

As you might have figured out, I'm going at it by process of elimination from simple to more complex, that's why I went for the fuses and breakers first.

My money is on something came unplugged. I'd check the connection where the door harness plugs in. I think this is behind the pass. kick panel. I wouldn't suspect the controls beacuse you can't move the mirrior so no power is reaching that door. find a tech on here and ask them where the door harness plugs in at to be sure, or just follow it where it passes through the A pillar into the cab. It has be on the cab side since nothing is reaching that door only. my 2 cents

I believe all the power for the window and the mirror goes through the driver side switch.

This may be something that the dealer will have to diagnose. On these new vehicles, the computer controls everything. The BCM (body control module) may be the culprit here and they can hook up the Tech 2 scan tool and check it out. Expensive dealer shop labor wouldn't be my first choice either, but maybe money well spent in this case.

If the door and switches are anything like the 2011, you can pull the door switch panel and check for things unplugged. On my 2011, it appears that everything plugs into switch module and then there is a single harness that goes down inside the door and through the accordion tube to inside the kick panel.

Well, I'll check the door switches this weekend and see where it routes into the cab to see if it's connected there too, than go from there. Sounds like I might have to bite the bullet and go to the dealer.

One more thing, the LED flashers in the mirror do work though, but not sure if the power source is different.
