I agree with the body control module. They are troublesome on Auroras!

SOURCE: 2001 Olds Aurora: Neither the buttons on the door

The "problem" was caused by the "valet" switch (actually a pretty cool option). I read the owner's manual - there is a valet toggle switch located in the glove compartment. As instructed, I turned the valet switch option from "ON" to "OFF".....everything started working properly (including the remote garage door opener - which I forgot to mention also was not working). Simple, easy fix didn't cost one dime! Pays to read the owner's manual and any signs in the vehicle. The information is posted right on the switch panel!

SOURCE: I have a 2001 Olds

All of these body control functions are run by one central electonic module, it is called the BCM, this stands for "Body Control Module". The BCM can be tested for loss of function of the systems it controls, this is everything you have problem with, the doors the power windows the mirrors, all of it, this self test is run with a GM electronic system scanner called a "Tech 2". More than likely the BCM has failed, this would be the common problem here, but the the module can't just be replaced, the new module (if one is still available) must be programmed for your cars built in security system and other features you have must be enabled to function properly, so what does this mean? you need to have a GM dealer repair this. If there was another way i would be glad to share it with you.

SOURCE: 1999 Jeep cherokee sport power door lock problem

If you would remove the door panel again, with the window rolled up, inspect the piece of linkage that is attached to the lock cylinder. It is held to the lock cylinder by a clip, then follow it down to where that same piece of linkage attaches to the door lock assembly. It is also held in place there by a clip, or at least it should be.

Insert a key in the outside of the lock cylinder and attempt to move the linkage. If there is a restriction, follow the linkage to find out why. It may be that the linkage has dropped off, or it may be the lock mechanism has jammed.

The reason it works from the inside is because a different piece of linkage operates the lock mechanism.

If you would like to contact me again about this or other problems, feel free to do so.

SOURCE: Power door locks won't work

You need to have someone or yoursef check the body control module with a compatible scan tool. Thats where the problem you are having resides. It may need a software update or replacement. You can also disconnect the battery for a few minutes, that will cause the BCM to reset and may fix it.

2001 aurora rear door lock and window does not work

There is a door module in each door. This could be the issue and would be the next part I would try. I have also had issues with the connectors going to this module.
Note also that the switches are tied into the master switch on the drivers door. Make sure the "window lock" is not on. Although this would not effect the power door lock.

How do I jump start the battery on 2001 aurora

You know it is under the rear seat, passenger side, right? You can, however, remove the power center cover (under the hood, passenger side) and put the positive clamp on the large nut with the large cable at the top of the box-negative clamp then goes onto a metal part of the engine block, or a bolt on the shock tower.

2001 aurora power window/lock failure.

Power Windows Operation
The vehicle is equipped with power windows controlled by the door modules. Each passenger door power window can be operated, either from a switch built into the driver door switch assembly (DDSA), or from a switch mounted locally on its associated door. The driver door power window can only be operated from the switch built into the DDSA.
If the driver door module (DDM) receives a window switch request from any of the window switches built into the DDSA, the DDM checks the Class 2 serial data to see if conditions are correct (i.e. ignition switch position) to permit window operation to occur. If conditions are correct, the DDM, either supplies power and ground to its associated window motor, or sends a command via the power door serial data line to the passenger door module controlling the window. The passenger door module controlling the window then supplies power and ground to its associated window motor to move the window as requested.
When one of the local window switches mounted on one of the passenger doors is operated, the associated passenger door module examines the request and checks to see if there are any messages from the DDM prohibiting the window operation. If conditions are correct, and no prohibitive messages have been received from the DDM, the associated passenger door module then supplies power and ground to its associated window motor to move the window as requested.


Class 2 data network wires under the carpet behind driver seat. Water shorts out the network an and it won't work .
your looking for tan/white wire's and a connector . This is where the problem is .
