Weird electrical issue where engine stalls when I open the driver side door or depress brake pedal. Keep getting CEL w/P0705 code. Seems to be related to driver side electronics in general.
Other oddness with this problem...
1. Interior lights are kind of dim when activated by driver door switch. regular brightness when activated by passenger door or headlight knob turn.
2. Pushing brake pedal causes stalling in P or N about 90% of the time. Noticed weirdness with tail lights when this problem is going to happen. On driver's side all three rear lamps are lightly illuminated with engine running car in P and headlights off. On passenger side just the driving and reverse lamps are lightly illuminated. The 10% of the time in which pushing brake pedal does not cause stalling the tail lights do not lightly illuminate. But opening driver door still does.
3. When having issue the left turn signal flashes reverse lights at very low illumination.
I don't have a clue what to do! Strangest thing I've ever encountered. I re-seated a bunch of electrical connections under the hood. Checked battery and cleaned terminals. Engine runs well otherwise.
