Door ajar light - power windows and alarm

The power windows, radio, interior lights and gages stopped working last April. Changed fuse #17 under the dash and everything worked except the power windows only worked occasionally. They have since stopped working completely and now, the door ajar light blinks on and off every 2 to 3 minutes -it's not registering that the door is actually shut. Help...the dinging is driving me nuts! Oh! and the panic alarm goes off randomly - I have to keep my keys close by at all times to press the red button 5 or 6 times... even while I'm sleeping at 3am it goes off.

2005 Audi Allroad A6 interior lights door locks windows not working. Fuse 14 is OK and already changed CCM.

Maybe the convenience (or comfort) control module under the driver seat carpet also got water damaged? If you have VAGcom (VCDS), run diagnostic scan and post here.

My 2004 Pontiac grand am se1 acts like door is open and interior light stays on also does t lock on its own when in gear and lights don't blink and horn not honk when locking with key bob

02 VW Jetta locks, remote, lights, windows stopped working

Same problem with an '03 Golf--remote entry, power windows, and interior lights stopped working. This was easily fixed by replacing fuse #14, (10 amp), located in the driver's side fuse block.
