For some strange reason, the left side of the car's door handles are no longer working, they didnt stop working at the same time, but within about a year of each other.

here's the odd part: the back door was rarely used. was barely opened, even when the driver's side door handle was broken.

Oh, to top things off, we get the driver's side working again, it's good for about 3 years.

Then it just fell off. Then the back door's window stopped rolling up and down, despite rarely being used.

Gremlins I tell you.

Anyone have an idea?

Okay, I found a page showing it, however, for future reference I'll post it here:
