If it were a computer showing that sort of symptom, I'd suspect a bad connection and start by pulling every card off the motherboard and then putting them back. Since a lot of the X308's electronics ARE a computer, it might be worth breaking and rejoining every connection in the door switch circuit (with the battery disconnected just in case you get an airbag connection by mistake).

OK, it's only a bit better than the help desk suggesting "try turning it off and on again", but I do have some evidence it might work: my XJ8's trip computer started scrolling and showing gibberish; the dealer said the instrument pack had been spiked and there was nothing they could do; I took the pack out, reseated every connector on it's circuit board, and hey presto! problem solved.
