It's the door entry pad switch. They are about $15 or so at the dealer.

If you're industrious you could take it off, take it apart and clean the contacts then replace and it will probably work properly. Here's a thread for DIY:

I'am having trouble opening my drivers door lately.
Wonder how much my dealer would charge to install a new door entry pad switch?

Honestly!??? Buy the pad and do it yourself. It's a piece of cake to do. The dealer will rape you for labor. The advice about taking it apart and cleaning it might save the purchase of the part.

Thanks for your help Rick T I'll try to clean. But if someone has a part number I would be very grateful.

Thanks Nico

I don't know how to get a part number. gmpartshouse and partstaxi searches don't provide the number. Maybe I'm missing a click or something else to get that.

Anyway, here are the links to both vendors. Partstaxi is a little cheaper.
