96 Eddie Bauer GEM module replacement

[JamesLittleWolf]

I own a 1996 Ford Explorer, Eddie Bauer edition my windows have recently stopped working and my four-wheel-drive and four low lights are blinking in sequences of four. I was told by multiple people that it could be the GEM module unfortunately the one I replaced it with was also bad. This is my original one that I took out. My question would be how would I go about replacing this and what should I look for? Any help is greatly appreciated.

i am pretty sure you will have some of these codes

and that is a sign of a bad transfer case shift motor.

Windows not working is a independent issue, maybe broken wires inside the drivers door cable bushing.
