The doors are electric. You most likely have a broken door inside the heater box under the dash.
A diesel electric power plant is an engine that powers electric motors. The motors actually operate the machinery such as a locomotive.
To jump start a diesel vehicle with a flat battery? you can, just make sure the voltages on both vehicles batteries are the same. I believe if the alternator is not performing as it should the diesel engine may not operate as electric fuel injection will not operate.
No diesel is a petroleum byproduct and is not water. If there had been water in the diesel fuel, it may separate after a freeze and thaw.
British trains run on both diesel and electric
Diesel trains are louder than electric trains because you the noise that the diesel engine makes, which is louder than the electric engine.

No spark plugs in a diesel.
you have a vacuum leak. defrost is the default when a vacuum leak is present.
Diesel electric is used on locomotives because the diesel electric system is much cleaner and quieter and more efficient than the old steam locomotives. The diesel fuel is used to run a generator which produces electric power which is used to power the electromagnetic drive motors mounted on the locomotives axles!
Yes it can be done and there are a few companies that will do it for you. Diesel powered units turn a compressor, so an electric motor can also turn the compressor. Most diesel units operate at 2200 rpm and most electric motors are 1800 rpm so allowances must be made in the electronic controls for the difference in speed and of course how the start and stop cycles are controlled.
World War II submarines were powered by large electric motors. On the surface, the motors drew their power from diesel generators, not unlike how a diesel locomotive operates today. When submerged, the diesel engines could not be operated, and the motors drew their power from huge banks of electric batteries. After the batteries were drained of their power, the submarine would have to surface in order to run its diesel generators to provide propulsion and electric power to the submarine. During this period, the sub's batteries were recharged. Toward the end of World War II the submarine snorkel was invented, which gave a submarine the capability of running its diesel engines while submerged. The submarine was required to stay relatively close to the surface, but it was fully submerged with the exception of the snorkel mast. Nuclear powered submarines also have banks of electric batteries, but they are only used when the main propulsion plant and/or its steam-powered electric generators are disabled. When a nuclear-powered submarine's batteries are fully drained, they are recharged by the boat's diesel generator if its steam-powered electric generators are not available, or by the steam-powered electric generators when they becomes available. Just like a diesel-electric submarine, a nuclear-powered submarine must operate its diesel generator on or near the ocean's surface.
Modern diesel electric motors are actually hybrids engines. The electric motor is used whenever possible to conserve fuel, and the diesel engine provided power for hill climbs and acceleration,
