Dead passenger door

My front passenger door electrics quit working, no power window, or power locks or even the entry light on the bottom of the door. The only thing that works is the power mirror. Anybody ever have this problem and the fix for it. I did notice this even though the door does not lock by the power switch or the remote if you open the door when the alarm thinks it's locked the alarm will still work.

Check for a bad ground, i am somewhat sure that all the wiring on the door is on 1 grounding point, check fuses, harnesses. The only reason teh alarm sounds is cuz the "door closed" switch is mounted on the body, not the door, when closed it completes the circuit to the alarm,

Do you think the ground is inside the door itself or on the body somewhere.

FSM doesn't show any ground points inside the door itself, so it would be carried through by the various harnesses inside the door.

Basically, it traces back to a chassis ground at some point. As does everything else. Short of tracing the wire physically, it'd be hard to tell exactly where that ground was located with the FSM, if it would be possible at all.

What a PITA I don't know where to start. I think I'll rip the door panel off and check in there first. The wires run into the body by the glove box, I really can't even get to them to trace where they are running to.
