Check the wiring to the door, it sometimes breaks.

Don't assume the drains are clear just because you cleaned them over the summer. They can block in a short time, I check mine every week. :mad:

Check the wiring where it goes between the door and the pillar, where it gets comressed each time the door's open.

This type of problem is usually caused by a bad earth. If you get a fault code read it might give you a hint. could save hours of searching. Failing that it's lots of trim out to search and test the wires.
