    This literally just happened, so I am going to try and work on it... But here is the story. I was driving and turned on my right turn signal to make a turn. It unlocked my doors and you can hear the unlock click every single time the signal blinks. I did not hit a bump or hit water or anything different that could have caused this.

    Also, i checked all of my controls after and on the driver's side, the front passenger window control does not work and the lock/unlock buttons do not work. All other buttons work. On the passenger side the lock button works and the window button works up and down, but the unlock button doesn't work.

    What the hell is going on here?

    If you're still under warranty, I suggest taking it by the dealer to have it checked out.

    You might just have to start using the unlock button to activate your right turn signals?

    Try honking the horn 3 times then tap the bake pedal twice and the gas pedal once.... should fix it right up.

    What you have is not a problem. Another's guy truck would move forward when shifter is in D. THAT is a problem.

    JaCado is the jack wagon, it was a guess, but I was serious.

    Thanks for figuring out what it was too quickly, this had the makings of a great Friday :bananadead:, nobody even had a chance to ask if you changed the blinker fluid yet:rant:

    This is a first I have heard of a loose fuse, especially when it hasn't been touched, allegedly.
