Power problem

Post by brazilia120 »

My 2001 SLE is having power problems. All 4 windows quit, power mirrors quit, and power locks quit. Possibly the control unit on the drivers' door? I don't have a clue. I'm hoping someone else does. Oh, and the blinkers quit. All bulbs are good, just won't blink.

Does the cruise control work or is that dead as well? I had a similar issue as well with my 02 SE documented here http://www.pontiacbonnevilleclub.com/fo ... 39349.html

As for the windows and locks being dead, common problem is the drivers door switch module. It goes bad then all hell breaks loose. Another common problem with those symptoms is a connector under the carpet under the drivers seat that is used for communication between the four door modules. If that corrodes the three passenger doors lose all electrical functions but the drivers door will still work.
