I posted a question last week about the driver side door controls not working. Over the weekend I had more time to analyze the problem. First I thought the driver side door would lock with the keyless entry. I was wrong. Nothing on the driver side door will work, windows, locks and mirror controls. The door is completley dead. When it comes to electrical stuff I am pretty blind. But I would to ask before spending a lot of money if it is a easy fix.
I checked the fuses and they all are good. I then checked with a test light on the wires going into the door from the fuse panel. Again I am not very bright on electrical stuff so don't laugh to hard. There were two smaller wires that were brown that were hot. No other wires were hot. To me the main black wire (I always thought red and black are hot) was not hot at all. Even from the wire harness the black wire in the fuse box was not hot.
If anybody knows anything please reply. I am not sure if this info tells you much. All it does for me is that I have a problem that I cannot fix.
Again thanks for your help.
