Electrical problems? wtf?

I really cant figure out what the h3ll is wrong with the max.

But, everyonce in a while when i try to unlock the max and roll down the windows with the stock key fob, the passenger side doors will unlock, and the passenger window will roll down, but the driver one stays up...and the driver side doors dont unlock....and i hear a clicking noise coming from the doors like they keep trying to unlock....

Whats really wierd is that when this happens and i manage to open the door, the courtesy light on the driver door doesnt light up, but if i hit the door in the right spot, the light will turn back on (since the door is open...) and my window will roll down and unlock properly...

I thought it was just something wrong with the key fob, but the same windows dont want to roll down even with the window switch in the car...

any ideas?

It has got to be a loose connection inside of the door. You should take the door panels off and check things out. It would help if you had a multi-meter. Good luck

How would a multi-meter help me out? Can you explain this?

You can check to see how far your getting power to. So if your not getting any power to the lock wires inside the door, you will know your problem is not in the door and to look elsewhere.
