Playing Ping Prong
The prong that sends power to the lamps is the same one that sends power to the door module.
Because they open sometimes there is an intermittent connection which you need to find.
Wire up a small 12 volt bulb (a side marker bulb works best).
Connect one lead to ground and the other lead to pin 1A yellow wire on the module.
Make the wires long enuff to bring it into the cockpit.
The next time the doors don’t open observe if the bulb is illuminated.
If it is, you will know that control power is getting to the module therefore test or replace the module.
If the test bulb is not illuminated, you will know that control power is not getting to the module therefore you merely have to restore that one connection.
