[QUOTE="shredder2, post: 8647176, member: 674047"] IDK for sure what's causing the problems... mine did something similar with gauges, door locks, turn signals and window motors. Turned out it was a short in the power seat... lol... I found it by feeling the breakers (auto-reset ones) when it was acting-up. The lil things were in the interior fuse-box and controlled several circuits each and when opened-up they were HOT. I traced the circuit and started disconnecting what I could get to and eventually I got lucky (Narrowed down the area/circuit).... the drivers power seat was the issue, I removed it and took it apart and lo-and-behold a wire was rubbed down to the core for one of the motors, It still worked, my body weight was causing the short and only sometimes as well. I wrapped the wire and zip-tied it out of the problem area and it's now fixed. Could be something similar... electrical gremlins can be a PITA! Hopefully that helps. [/QUOTE]
