Driver side controls
Hey everyone, hoping someone can help me out with this one.

My driver side controls don't work anymore, so I can't control the window, or adjust my seat etc. I've also noticed that the side mirror signal doesn't blink.

Is this simply a blown fuse, or something more serious that requires going to the stealer?

Thanks!

You could have water getting to the unit, which would eventually cause failure. How are the seals just below the window? And are the weep holes at the bottom of the door clear?

I had the car detailed several months ago....and the inside was shampooed. Maybe water got into the panel that way...?

Oh well....just glad it's working now.
