Exclamation new here just got 03 suburban

Hello all chuck here NJ
i need a little help with a few things if any one or would care to sure info with me would be great. So here we go ok i have barn doors cluster keeps saying right rear door ajar did every thing i could think of?
ok there is no chime alert at all i left lights on and nothing no ding ding with key in ignition either?
Mirror no compass or temp working ?
Also i hear an occasional knock under truck my feeling could be torsion bar ? and if so what would cause that?
i guess that should be enough for now Thank you

I'd take CRC contact cleaner to the rear switch fingers. The mirror, compass issue might also be related to being turned off. If you have an owners manual, confur with that. I have an 03 with the issue with temp/compass rearview, but cannot remember other than it was a setting

If the torsion bar is making the noise, check the bushings.

often GM will print the number right on the part. Did you look it over carefully?
