Does it shut off completely, or does it just lose reception?

It corrects itself when you slam the door, so doublecheck the wiring in the door, including the speaker. Doublecheck the wiring and connections in the kick panel, and the JB. If water is getting into the JB, strange things start happening, so its worth looking into.
