Default power sliding doors and overhead light question

I have a 2007 SXT, and the passenger side sliding door will not open on its own when the button is press in the back but it works when I use the keyless entry and the button in the front overhead console. I am not have any problems with the driver's side at all. Anyone got any ideas?

Also, the vanity mirror lights in the visors and the front overhead lights won't work. The overhead light in the back work just fine. are they on a seperate fuse then the back lights?

thanks

The lights in question are on the same circuit but don't have dedicated fuses. They are powered by the Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM controls most of the electronics in the van. Each circuit has it's individual lamp driver in the BCM that supplies power. One thing to try is to open the underhhod fuse panel (IPM) and remove the IOD fuse for 2-3 minutes. This will reset the BCM.
