Default $600 Module?

My son just called to tell me on his '04 Vert all the power went out on the passenger side. No window, no door lock, etc. His local garage told him that the "right side" module went south and it will cost him $600 to replace. He has warranty insurance with no dedut but I'm just wondering....is it

He is probably refering to his door control module, which controls these functions.

Best way is to check ythe DIC for codes.

I'll be it's a short, he needs to grab the accordian/conduit in the door jamb where all of the wiring runs, and give it a good hard squeeze and joggle it around (You know what I mena). It's a pretty common problem on C5's.

Bill Curlee has some good pictures describing why and what needs to be done.
