I have the common issue where the driver power window/door lock/mirror control stops working. It's intermittent and the A/C doesn't blow cold when the door panel is not working. I've seen RAM forums to replace the switch panel, and the door control panel, and the TIPM, but I've also seen posts where each of these did not solve the problem. The ambient air sensor has also been blamed, but again, been replaced without solving the problem. Have you dealt with this problem, and do you have any suggestions?

Yes, this happens when the driver's door module goes out, but to be sure we should do a CAN scan. You can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) which will work on most cars from Amazon.

Here is a video to show you how:

Here is the location of the DDM and how to replace it and do the relearn. Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem so we can see what's going on.
