Front Passenger Side Power Everything Don't Work

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...

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.

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

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.

It takes less than 5 minutes to pull the switch module (no need to pull door panel off). I use a putty knife to spread the force.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By No1UKnow · Posted

      Hello All!   My 2019 Colorado 3.6 LT, 4WD Crew Cab has approximately 77,500 miles and I recently began experiencing the well-known transmission shudder between about 30 and 65 mph. The problem had worsened to the point that I could no longer attribute it to road conditions - and I had decided to bring the truck to the dealer - when recently, I experienced a sudden loss of power while driving at maybe 40 MPH. Several warning lights flashed, the “Check Stabilitrack” message appeared, and the Check Engine, Stabilitrack, and Traction Control icons remained illuminated. The truck regained driving power, but it stayed in a low gear with unusually high RPMs for the speed. (limp mode?) Because I was only about two miles from home, driving slowly, I was able to make it back and run an OBD-II scan, which showed fault codes U0101, P0700, and U0100. My next trip in the truck was to drive it to the dealer the following day. That trip began normally, but after about a mile I experienced another loss of power, along with the same warning lights and the same “Check Stabilitrack” message. As before the truck remained driveable, but again operated at an abnormally high RPM-to-speed ratio and seemed stuck in a single gear. About a mile later, the dashboard lit up once more, this time displaying “Check 4WD.” Soon after that, I arrived at the dealer. I have verified that the truck still has its original factory transmission fluid, which means it has never received the corrective fluid exchange outlined in GM Technical Service Bulletin #18-NA-355.  That was Thursday of last week and I've heard nothing yet from the dealer.    According to Technical Service Bulletin #18-NA-355 and the build date of my truck, my truck should have the newer LV fluid. I've done a little research and read something about a problem with the wiring harness as well.   Anyone have an insights into this situation?  Thank you!!

      Gas Prices

      By PhilB · Posted

      Did you even read this article?   Even the title of the article says "U.S.-Iran Deal Doesn’t Mean a Swift Return of Oil and Gas Flows"   Remember, crude oil prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the oil companies.  Gas prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the station.  This article stated that many of the oil producing nations have to restart their processes to get the oil produced.  Then the oil has to be shipped to wherever.  And it doesn't get there overnight.  And most of that oil is not coming here. Check out this site:  https://afdc.energy.gov/data/10621   A graph will pop up to show where the US imports their oil from.  Notice that there isn't a lot of import from OPEC and Iraq.  Most of the US import comes from Canada. The US oil produces are selling their oil on the open market, which is why the US fuel costs went up.  So you're correct, the US oil companies are going to slow walk the price downward.
