Default Help with noise from drivers door...

I periodically hear what sounds like a relay clicking coming from the inside of my drivers door.

I also had codes for loss of comunication to BCM from both the driver and passenger door.

I'd say you really should pull the door panel and see if indeed there is a relay or electrical clicking.

My guess would be that a cable is contacting the window. There is a TSB and in the factory manaul, as I recall, a section (under rattles and squeaks)
about zip tie-ing the cable in place.

I'll have to listen when the car isn't moving, then I'll tear it down if need be.

What would cause a loss of comunication from my doors to the BCM?

It could be a bad part, or bad connection. There is a connector in the black "accordian" tube between the door and the body of the car which may not be tight / connected properly. Worth a try. :yesnod: :)
