If you take off the door skin there should be a black or grey rectangular box, roughly 3 inches long, that sometimes fails. Had to replace the one on my old 240.

^ same, don’t waste money buying a new one. open up that grey box, take the circuit board out, flip it over and check for any broken connections. solder them back when you find them and it should work.
