Yesterday while out driving the left hand front window opened by itself and now will not shut. Also, the door will not lock and the mirror will not adjust or fold in. All other doors and windows working fine. I have checked the fuses which seem fine.

Hello,

It sounds like the BCM has gone out causing the window controls to stop working on one portion of the program, but to be sure I would test through the window switch to make sure it is not shorted. Here is a guide to help you:
