This week my vehicle experienced an issue with the drivers side door where the power window switches stopped operating. The switches on all the other doors work fine. I have checked all the fuses which checked out ok. Also with this problem, it caused the gas filler latch to also not operate and the warning bells for the ignition isn't sounding. Lastly I get a message that the drivers door is open even though it is closed. It's difficult to check voltages with everythig being sealed. Please help.

Thanks Leo

check you have power to the switch .. if so, replace the switch .. spray a lubricant into the locking assembly and open and close the door a few times to lubricate the door ajar switch .. or replace the switch
