I had this problem. They originally cleaned the corroded contacts of the BCI and sealed it properly (per the recall issued in the UK but not here). This seemed to fix the problem for a while but then it came back. Then they replaced the door actuator (it was the driver's side in my case) and it is mostly fine since. Sometimes I get the 'usual' window won't drop problems but so far it still seems to understand that the door is closed. Will your car lock?

My problems at first were the car locking itself and rolling the windows up. Later the problems were interior light on, wouldn't lock the car, didn't want to keep the window up. Possessed indeed.

BTW, you have a door open light? I only have a hatch/boot/trunk open light.
