Weird Movement!
With the engine off if the passenger opens their door I feel a 5 second movement within the car; like a vibration. This has happened several times. Drives fine otherwise.
Has anyone else felt it? I have a '99 vert with 13K.

The ONLY thing that the PASENGERS DOOR has incommon with control of the car is:
- The interior light.
- The security function. DOOR AJAR
If the door is causing some other body control or engine control function to change,,,, your most likely having a Serial Bus issue. The door wiring harnesses run thru the rubber accordion tube between the door and door frame. Pop out the accordion tube and fish out the connectors in the door frame. Carefully seperate the connectors and examine those wires and connectors. Look for corrosion, damaged wires, bent pins, etc!
Fix anything that you find bad. See if that fixes your issue.
