Need help...

Hello and Happy Holidays! Unfortunately yesterday I noticed the drivers side door lock/open buttons are no longer functioning! At night the buttons don’t even light or they are flickering when I press down to attempt to open or lock the doors. I have a 2014 v8 convertible if anyone can help me fix....or do I have to go to dealer out of warranty of course! Thx in advance for any suggestions...

First thing to always try is to reboot the car. Disconnect the battery for at least 15 seconds. If you do this, you will probably need to reprogram your window auto-up feature.

That sounds like possibly a harness issue - maybe it wasn't locked and it separated.

Take the door panel off and make sure that the switch connections are good, properly inserted and corrosion free. If water gets into them it car cause the issue you describe. I had a similar issue that resulted in the assembly to be replaced hen I drove in rainy weather and the windows was a tad down allowing water to get into it. I was under warranty luckily.
