What is the problem? My son had a #6 miss fire. Changed plugs, wires, coil pack, and swapped fuel injectors. Still no fix. Used some AMSOIL engine foam. 1 can and cleared his code. If I'd did not see it I would not believe it.
Your thermostat could be bad. Also.use the correct one. Modern engines are designed to run hotter. If you use a cooler thermostat, you engine will run rich. Don't ask how I know.
You get what you pay for. A basic reader at Harbor Freight us cheap. But only reads codes. I have an orange one. Can't remember the brand, used buy several mechanics. Gives me a few options for testing and seeing what is going on. See what brands mechanic's are using and get one of them. I...
Cover the suspect area in copper screen and ground to chassis. This might prevent the wireless signal from getting through. Also check grounds on the system. A missing ground might cause it. You need to send the wireless signal to ground.
Outside door handle return spring broke or missing. Handle must be closed for lock to work properly. There is a thread on the board for the door spring repair.
Maybe some kind of power controller. I would just cover it and leave it alone. I have a remote start on mine under the dash from a previous owner. No remote. Tided into a few relays. Truck runs good. I just secured the wires and relays and drive. Not worth messing something up if it works.

Got a 2001 sport with a 4.0. 202000 miles on it. Transmission went out at 180000. I have the chain noise at start up. I just take it easy until it warms up. Hoping to get 250000 out of the engine. Cheaper to keep her then a new vehicle.
Check Harbor Freight. They have several O-ring kits. Found a set for my son's A/C swap. No leaks. We just matched up what we thought would work. Use some petroleum jelly when installing O-rings.
Try a clamp on amp meter. See if you have any drain reading. Start pulling fuses and see if it stops
No amp meter, try a multi-meter in line with the negative post. Just don't try to start up it with the meter hooked up.
On my wife's Tribute. I removed the window only and the track stayed in place. Has a broken plastic guide on the track. Used real small screws and nuts to repair. Installed window. Works like new. Did not have to remove headliner.
My transmission went out. No notice, pink fluid. Lost reverse and 1st. The overdrive shafts and everything on it was fused together. $2,000 for rebuild.
