Driver door Electronics(switches) not working

[shadoow98]

So my 03 driver side door electronics are somehow like losing its power. Window switches and electronic locks not working, no power at all to the driver side door. Unlocking and locking the doors by control does nothing to the door so I have to unlock it by key and the alarm starts to sound.

I'm in Mexico at the moment and a lot of speed bumps and many other bumps so the problem starts at the morning and later on it fixes by itself. Seems like maybe something got loose with all the holes in the road.

One thing I have not tested is if the speaker on the door works when its not getting any electricity.

The problem is only in the morning and fixes later on by itself. The Tahoe goes to the garage with the door working and by morning simply stops. Any idea what it could be or what I should look for because I have no clue where to start.

Something to try if you have not started at all....

Hey Victor,

If you have not even started, check to see if the cabling from your cab to the front door is damaged. Open the door and carefully look at the wiring on the hinge side.

I don't know if the front door uses the same connections as the rear, but check out this thread (blue link below) regarding wiring door speakers - towards the end of the thread, they show the wiring bundle connector to the door.

Maybe on your truck there is a similar connection that is loose or damaged. If you find the connector, disconnect it and re-connect it, sometimes a re-seating will fix connector problems.

Good Luck. Maybe others will chime in with suggestions!
