Owner report 11361361 · 2020-09-27 (September 27, 2020)

THE DRIVER DOOR WINDOW / LOCK CONTROL MODULE WILL NOT LEARN OR RETAIN THE CONNECTIONS TO THE OTHER DOORS. WHILE THE CAR IS SHUT DOWN THE CONTROL MODULE WORKS AS IF IT IS IN NORMAL MODE AND CAN CONTROL ALL THE WINDOWS. THE 4 DOOR LOCKING DOES NOT WORK WHILE THE CAR IS RUNNING BUT WORKS WHILE IT IS SHUT DOWN. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AND EVEN WITH THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DOOR MODULE DOESN'T WORK. THIS ISSUE STARTED WITH A GROUND IN THE PASSENGER SEAT HEATER SYSTEM WHICH DREW DOWN THE BATTERY SIGNIFICANTLY.
