Hi Geral,

This is definitely new one on me.

I think you will probably need help from someone with strong automotive electronics skills.  My guess is that the fault is somewhere in a "body control module."  

When you do find out what is wrong, please send me a follow up if you have a minute.  I am really curious about this very unusual problem.

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
