First step

A typical diagnostic sequence used by mechanics, provided here for educational reference only. Diagnostic work should be performed by a qualified mechanic with the appropriate tools and training. 1. Identify exactly which system isn't working, B2100 is broad but the symptom usually narrows it quickly 2. Check fuses for that circuit, free quick check that catches a meaningful share of cases 3. Inspect the wiring at the door rubber if the fault is door-related, broken wires inside the rubber concertina are extremely common on older cars 4. Test the affected motor or actuator at the connector with a 12V supply, does it operate when given power directly? 5. If wiring and components are healthy, the BCM may be the issue; that needs Chrysler-specific diagnostic equipment
