I'm assuming when you turn the key it operates some sort of switch inside the door. i'm guessing this switch has gone bad, but i can not find a part number for it. does anyone know if this might be the problem? if so where could i get this online? i'm trying to avoid going to the dealership, it is over 3 hours away and i am currently unemployed so money is tight. any help would be great. thanks guys.
Sounds like the guts of the door lock "failed" It cost me $800 at the dealer.
Good Luck
