Sounds like a bad connection in one of the loom plugs, the vibration of the slamming door makes a better circuit, check the relevant plugs first, do a wiggle test, you may pick up the faulty terminal this way.

Check the plug for the switch first, not sure how difficult it is to get to that one, also dose the blower fan cut in and out when on heater as well?

I have no pics of them, you will just have to look under the dash and test all the plugs, check the blower motor first.
