i will check that out with the grounds do u no if the back door locks and auto opening work thru the body control module because about a month ago they stopped working
I just looked at the wiring diagram and it appears that the body control module has been divided into two separate modules. The FEM (front electronic module) located under the dash and the REM (rear electronic module) located in the rear behind where the jack tools are stored. These modules use a standard corporate protocol (SCP) communication network in order to transmit and receive signals.
The FEM controls the following systems: wiper, washer (front and rear), warning chime, accessory delay, switched system power (relay 1 and 2 of 4 relays), driver one-touch power window, front blower motor relay, front parking lamps, cornering lamps, front headlamps, front turn signal lamps, and front door locks.
The REM controls the following systems: switched system power (relay 3 and 4 of 4 relays), rear window defrost relay, auxiliary climate control, electronic day/night rear view mirror, overhead interior lighting, sliding door and liftgate power locks, fuel sender signal transmission, rear park lamps, brake lamps (including high-mount stoplamp), backup lamps, and rear turn signals.
thanks my friend looks like it is time for some multi-meter work [ thanks ] and i will let u no what i find
Hey karl
That is a very common problem with the windstars I just did one recently and it was a little harder then expected. The windstars have a tendancy to to have the gauge clusters go out due to bad connections on the internal boards which give a lot of movement in the gauges . Up and down movements of the speed, tach are the most common or pegging out then dropping to for a while then returning to regular operation for a while before going crazy again. I ended up replacing the gauge cluster unfortunately however the the cluster has to be programmed and I had to have that done at the dealership.I do not know if it is the same problem for you however so a little more detail would be appreciated on how and when the gauges are acting up. How and when are they being fussy, is it random or common event and how long have you been experiencing the issue. I hope this helps some.
