Why does my RH power window / door lock switch, the remote and the control button on left hand side quite then suddenly starts working? Have replaced the right hand door switch 3 times and had the remote and switch reprogrammed to the truck. It quit again but then a few days later began working again. When the switch stops working so does the remote and the control button for the right hand window on the left hand master switch all at the same time.

chekc your grounds on this, one is on right side of dash and other is behind left kick panel, they may beloose or not making good contact. the control module is in both doors but the internal antenna is in the RH door. maybe the module is loose there nad doesn't get a good readon the antenna
