Locked entry door on 2004 M380

[garyvant55439]

I have a 2004 Wanderlodge M380. When I returned home after two weeks, I could
not open the entry door with my key. The rig had sat in 100+ degree heat all
that time.

Eventually, I got in through a window and found one of the DC breakers in the
front dash panel tripped. I reset it and was able to open the door.

This morning, I found the door locked again. The breaker that was tripped
yesterday was now Ok. I checked other breakers in both the dash panel and the
outside driver's side panel. They were all Ok.

Do any of you have any ideas?

Gary,
I had similar problems with my 2000 LXi, butno electrical issues. I'm convinced it was the uneven heating of differently-colored painted surfaces.
They probably needed a little wider tolerances around the door to account for expansion.
