No power at memory button on driver door, left speakers and driver door lock/unlock doesn’t work. It was working before then suddenly stop. Power window button works. I’m thinking some fuse must be blown, checked them and fuse seems good. Please do tell me which fuse to check again. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Welcome to 2CarPros

Since the vehicle is under warranty, I would recommend taking it to the dealer for repairs. If a fuse is bad, something caused it to blow.

If you check under the dash, you will see the passenger compartment fuse box. I have attached two pics. The first is a legend showing what each fuse does. The second shows the fuse box location I am referring to. Check fuse 1. That is for the left door (power locks).

Here are a few links you may find helpful when checking:

All fuses are good, checked with volt meter for continuity.

Welcome back:

At this point, you need to remove the door panel and inspect the wiring in the door for damage. Here are the directions for removal:

1.
Remove the pull pocket cap (A) and the screw (B). Pic 1

2.
Start at the bottom edge of the front door panel (A), remove the clips (B) with a commercially available trim pad remover. Pic 2

3.
Starting at the rear, pull the door panel. Pic 2

4.
While holding the front door panel (A) away from the door, disconnect the front door wire harness connector(s) (B). Pic 3

Did you check for any damaged wires? Also, note where the wiring comes into the door. I have seen them break between the door and door frame. Inspect them for insulation missing or other damage.
