Getting active again
Have been a Vette owners for many years but club days have been interupted by family. I'm able to get a little more active and have purchased a second Vette for summer fun. I just picked up a 99 convertible, nice but way more complicated then my 59. I'm still learning about all the options and recently had a little problem that I'm not sure if its a car problem or a setup problem.
I stopped for gas, got out of car with key still in ignition but friend sitting in passenger seat. He was lower window as I turned off key to get out. After fueling up I had a series of warnings, security, service active handling, service traction control, service tire pressure monitoring. This scared me but everything was running fine. Pulled over, turned off car, restarted and everything seemed fine,
except, passenger window would not go up or down. Passenger door lock would not work either. Anyhow, after reading manual and then replacing fuses on right door, Right Door Control Control Module and Right Door Power Feed, interestingly enough, the window and locks work from both doors
BUT, only when the passenger door is OPEN. I have done this multiple times to confirm. Am I missing something in my options setup ? Is there a reset ? The problem is not huge, I can still drive the car, but it does have me confused.
Any ideas or suggestions ? Thanks, everybody for listening
