As Uncle Stemo says,either the switch or the door harness making and breaking with door movement,try them again with the door open and see if owt changes

Some vehicles, DAF to name one, kills the power to the radio and door switches whenever the door is open or reverse is selected...

All that to say, just be mindful that the door switches may not work with the driver's door open ;)

Usually but you will need to unplug the loom in order to remove it to improve access to the actual wiring ;)
