Door controls not working

[wchevron]

Had the doors off over the weekend. Put them back on yesterday. Today I realize the driver side lock/unlock and sideview mirror buttons aren't working. Passenger side works. Unplugged the driver door and plugged back in. Seems to be in correctly and seated all the way. I looked in the fuse section of the manual but didn't see a fuse for the doors. I installed the aftermarket automatic window opener for all windows, which is spliced into the car side of the door plug wiring. The window still goes up and down so that signal is going through the door plug, just the lock and side view window controls don't work.

Check the pins in the connectors. Could be bent. Lots of threads on the forum. Poor design.

Several threads here on bent pins - and how to avoid bent pins when putting the doors back on. (don't use the lever to pull it together right away)

This is a good thread on it

Thanks all, it was the bent pins. Not too bent but I guess just enough not to get in the correct spot. Working now.
