Default 2 more elctrical Problems

Lest start with the most recent problem. Just yesterday my drivers door decided that it doesnt want to electrically unlock. It will lock just fine (fob, key, manual switch or switches on the door) but the only way to unlock the door is to use the key or the manual switch inside. When you use the fob there is a faint clicking sound inside the door. Does this sound like the relay issue I have read about? Anyone have a detailed wiring diagram and instructions on how to take the door apart without damaging it?

Second, I bought the car almost 8 months ago but the memory seats have never worked. The seats do have power cause I can adjust them in all directions. Using the DIC it states NO COMM for the memory seat listing (SDC I think). The memory settings work well for everything esle like mirrors, climate control, and radio. Any ideas? Any easy way to disconnect the wiring harness from the seat without removing the seat? Anyone have a detailed wiring diagram for this?

Thanks for your help, hopefully soon I will have the car 100%.

PS - Its a 2000 Coupe if that matters

Squezzing that accordian tube will perhaps help you with that...

Pay close attention to the thread about the wires in the rubber accordian tube between the door and body.

For the seat issue, please check the two connectors at the bottom of the seat to car interface and make sure they are clean and properly connected. Also, you might want to pull the seat while doing this and look at the connectors under there that go to the SCM itself making sure they are all connected. Don't forget to check for fuses in the passenger footwell fuse box.

Thanks for all the help guys I will look into those solutions. I just looked at a list of DIC codes that I reset a few weeks ago, and U1160 (loss of connection with LDCM) so here is hoping its a stripped wire in the accordion tube.
