pls help
first of all thank you for all your previous help.
let me explain the situation. first of all my passenger side mirror broke off.
I didn't know there'* a hole behind the mirror.
next it rained and a lot of water got inside the passenger door where the hole is.
now my passenger side door is going crazy. the doors lock and unlock by itself.
the sunroof won't work. the car will react like the door is open when it'* actually closed. I'm sure its because the water leaked inside the door and sent my electrical connectors nuts. I know how to take the panel off the door. what do i need to look out for? thanks for everything!!!

Honestly...I'd doubt there'* a water issue in the door. There is a plastic shield and drain holes in the bottom of the door.
This sounds like a ground buss related issue. Depending on how much rain you had..start with pulling the door panel and looking for obviously wet items. Then check the ground buss.

I think a lot of these models are the same. Mine, a 95 has one on both the drivers and passengers side. All you need is a little dirt or dampness on these and it will cause an electrical nightmare. I've been there before with this. Good luck!
