Got in my truck the other day, and had no power in my drivers side front door. No locks, no windows, no heated seats, no power windows. All other doors work. Any ideas?

Sounds like a relay or fuse.
Yup, check your fuses first after that I'd have a look at the wiring harness between the door and chassis. Wiggle it around some, see if it works when. Bar that start looking at the switch module "the thing all the buttons go into" it might have took a sh,,, or ah, went bad. You'll have to pull the door apart and have a cheap volt meter to really diagnose anything other then a fuse.
My driver side switch is crapping out for the second time in a 2006 F150 crew. There's a sweet spot where the window will operate so if it ain't broke.......
My first thought was a fuse as well, but wouldn't they each have a different fuse? I will have to look into that. My next thought was grounding or harness.Quote:

Not only do members here solve weapon issues but also automotive repairs now that shows the diversity and helpfulness found here on this web site.......
Yup, weakest link in the chain besides the fuse. They definitely don't make' em like they use to.
As I was reading this thread on New Year's Day, getting ready to head over to my cousin's house for dinner, she called frantically. Her almost-new Whirlpool stove/oven just caught fire. An electrical problem under the stove. (no it wasn't a grease fire in the oven, it was under the oven and she is a stickler for oven cleanliness). She put it out with a fire extinguisher. The unit is only 18 months old. This should never happen. She's here at my house now, moved all the food, etc. to my house for dinner. I told her to call the building inspector in the morning and have them do a forensic analysis of the problem. And then call Whirlpool and have them make good on a new stove. Underwriter's Laboratory should also be called on this one. A product recall may be? Lucky she didn't have a house fire! What a way to start the New Year. I'm happy with my old appliances, my 1993 Buick wagon, 1960s Craftsman tools, antique furniture (some of it is 300 years old), 50 year old boat, and WWI & II guns. The "Cheapening of Everything" in America is a real bummer -- its what's happened with because of Walmart and China. It's to the point that I won't buy a Chinese product if I can avoid it. Two years ago the fuel pump went in my other car. Took it in to be repaired. Cost $250 for the repair. Two days later the car wouldn't run. Towed it back to the repair shop. Fuel pump died -- Made in China. Had to be ripped out at the repair shop's cost. Told them NEVER to put another Chinese part in my car again. I'll bet your wiring harness was made in China too. GM, on their way to bankruptcy, outsourced enormous amounts of Chinese parts. Enough of this rant. Happy New Year All!
Designed obsolescence is a bacic factor designed into most products today. That combined with almost complete lack of quality control on Chinese products and sub assemblies on everything from autos to appliances is quite depressing. I have had appliances that I inherited that lasted 35 years only to be replaced with ones that cost eight times as much and lasted only five or six years. Can't count the number of bearings and other auto parts that lasted weeks or did not work at all. Have some other thoughts which i will not express in deferance to the no politics rule. One bright spot is that most firearms today
have not fallen prey to the profit first & only mentality.
