Sounds like you probably are experiencing the pretty common issue of a broken wire in the boot between the cabin and the door.

OK, I'm having the same problem. at first it was only when it's very hot outside (so cal)
now last sunday it stopped completely, as well as the rear window.
checked the fuses, OK, tried the door open/closed that checks out ok.
any help would be great.
