door locks

I recently purchased a used 02 explorer XLS as my son's first car. It seems to drive ok, but things just don't seem quite right. The outside air temperature and compass thingy built into the instrument cluster in the dash only show "------". Where are the sensors for those things? Or how can I...

After replacing my parking brake shoes, I wanted to make sure I didn't drive off with the brake on, like I've done so many times in the past. I just don't notice the brake light on the dash until it's too late sometimes. Well, I know it's been done before, so I decided I could install a blinking...

Basically you open the door from the outside. You let go to the handle, the lock will drop down, causing it to lock. Not like a free fall, like being push down in normal use. No, this will not do this with the inside handle, only the outside. This is all happening only on the passenger side...

Hi, I have a 2005 sport trac that the doors keep unlocking by themselves. It happens if you bump the vehicle, hit a bump, or sometimes just driving down the road. I realize that it is probably a broken or shorted wire, but can someone tell me where the best place to start looking would be, or...

I have a 1998 explorer and the remote just recently stopped locking the doors. It will unlock them and will set the alarm, but won't lock them. You have to do this manually.

For the life of me...I always tell the kids not to try and open the doors until they hear TWO, 2, duas, dois, TWO clicks...but they didn't and tried to open the door at the exact moment the doors were being unlocked and now I have a rear door that don't unlock and the manual slide won't even...

Our 2000 explorer has had it's share of electrical/mechanical problems. Now, neither of the rear doors unlock. I hear the switch working fine in the doors,but the rod doesn't raise and the doors are useless. The problem is that my kid;s are sitting in a death trap. If there is a collision, how...
