Driver side seat/window/blinker power problem. Please help

My friend's C32 has a problem with the entire electrical power on the driver side. There is no power at all on the driver side. Window doesn't go up/down. The window control for 4 doors doesn't work. You can't move any window up/down, but still you can if you use the button on that door. Seat doesn't have power also, can't move back/for/up/down... The blinker turn signal also doesn't work.

I am guessing a fuse problem but can't find any fuse goes wrong. I do not have a fuse map so don't know what to look for.

Does anyone know anything about this problem? should it be a fuse or a relay or a control module somewhere? Please share if you have a fuse map.

Please help

Thanks,

Under front drivers seats is the control box, make sure the plugs are all in.

Thanks Jim,

They are all in. The problem is not litmited to seat. It's a problem with everything.

Well I think it must be something with the entire driver side power, because nothing works on the driver side( mirror, turn signal, seat control, window control, etc)

It gotta be some guru here for the problem. Help guys girls please!

Drivers door control module. Check for power and ground first. Possibly a blown fuse fuse #21, a 30amp fuse, on the drivers side of the instrument panel.

If the fuse, power, and ground are good, it's probably a bad module.

Thanks a lot!

I wish it was the fuse, but it wasn’t.

I also think that it is the door control module. I opened the door panel and saw this control unit. All switches on the panel connect to this module so I was guessing that it gotta be something wrong with the module.

However, I drop it off at shop this morning and my mechanic called me and informed me that the seat control switch and the window control switch are gone. He smell the burn, but I did not smell anything when I open it. He will order the two switches first and will try to clear or change the channel on the unit to see if it works. If not, I need a new door control module.
I personally don't think there is anything wrong with the switch but I can't convince him. My analysis is that if the witches got burn somehow, there is no way for all of the switches got burn at once. We have at least 4 switches for window, 1 for trunk, 3 for seat.

I don't know if I am stupid or just my mechanic. (he is not trying to make money on me cause we are very closed. The only reason he may waist my money is when he act stupid on diagnostic the problem

Thanks again
