Description of the problem | I was driving down the road and all of a sudden the radio stopped working. I thought that a fuse had blown (which it did) so i replaced it. About 20 miles down the road it did it again. When i stopped at my destination i realized that the fuse that was continually blowing controlled my radio, the actuator module of the power sliding door, the navigation system and the remote control for locking and unlocking my doors. I managed to narrow it down to the actuator module that was causing the problem. I locked my motor for the door and haven't had a problem with it since. I got a fax from gm and it shows that the acuator module has been replaced 3-4 times before the car even had 8500 miles on the car. The cable has been adjusted as well for the same door. I didn't see any recalls on the actuator itself. I don't know what to do at this point. I would apprieciate any feed back as soon as possible. |
