Default Sub cut out with loose door connection

Interesting one here for all of the electrical engineers. 2012 JKU, suddenly lost most (95%) power to factory subwoofer. Took apart the enclosure. Checked for loose / wet /damaged connections. Pulled out the meter and noticed was only getting very low power readings from the amp. Pulled and checked all of the connections at the amp under the driver's side dash and all seemed fine. Then noticed the loose connection for the power locks and windows (Wife and kids especially love having the doors off when we can ). Firmly reconnected the plug and locked it in place and magically all power was back to the sub! I have heard the CANBus system referred to much like the old Volvo electrical system (runs on FreakingMagic), but has anyone else seen this issue?
