- 2002 XLT 4x4
I just bought a 2002 Explorer XLT with around 83k miles on it. Recently I have heard the door ajar sound and light flash when I lock or unlock the doors and sometimes randomly when driving. It flashes so quickly on the dash you won’t see it unless you happen to be looking at it when it goes off. The beep noise is longer than that light stays lit. I have noticed on the passenger front door when it’s opened sometimes the interior lights go crazy on and off rapidly like it can’t make up its mind if the door is shut. Naturally it doesn’t do it every time or even enough for me to be convinced that the door is the issue. Other thing I noticed is that the rubber door stop on that door is missing. Would that cause the door to not shut right even though it looks closed (no wind noise or anything)? Also the car alarm is going off randomly at night if I lock the doors and quiet if I leave them unlocked. Local mechanic didn’t even want to look at it and said he thought it was a BCM module? Only other door having an issue is that the rear glass wont pop up. It will only pop up if you are in the back hatch pushing it open while hitting the key fob to open it. Not sure if there is a sensor there or not. I was just wondering if this sounds like the typical door ajar issue I have read about or a more serious BCM issue. Is there a way to disable the alarm? I would be happy with that as a fix as well.
Thanks for your help
