Default Help with IP and door problem

03 vert gauges are pegged,nothing on the doors work and the display on the IP is showing all kind of messages. Checked for codes and there was codes in all modules. Radio shuts off and also shows reduced power but it is not. Has full engine power. This started right after my friend bought this car and it only would happen about once a month. Now it will do it as soon as you drive about a block. It has not done it setting in park. I have cleaned the 3 grounds under the hood and the dealer replaced the battery a month ago. I can get codes later today. Help please!

Found the problem with my friends 03 vert in the passenger side door female connector between door and body. And the driver side control panel was not plugged in all the way. Driver side door panel had been off for window motor replacement about 6 months ago. It is working fine now! but it will do it again. I need to find a replacement female connector. Anyone have a part number? Thanks for the help guys.
