Delay Issues

2002 Mercury Mountaineer 4.6 144,x.. miles. Just recently I have developed a new problem that I could not find a remedy to by searching this forum. Normally on my mountaineer pressing unlock on the fob once unlocks driver door and twice unlocks all doors. Now when you hit unlock you hear the driver door unlock slowly then after about counting 1 one thousand 2 one thousand you hear all the other locks slowly unlock too while keeping in mind I only hit unlock once. now moving on I hit lock, you hear driver door lock and then all other doors slowly follow behind after again counting seconds out loud. even locking doors or unlocking doors with the driver door switch I get the same results. I should be able to cycle from unlock to lock from the driver door switch within what I would call the speed of light. now it goes from lock to unlock in 2-3 out loud one one thousands. all 5 locks, 4 doors and hatch. just seems driver door is still unlocking before all other doors and that is the only normality to my issue. could it be the body control module in the right rear quarter panel? if any one has any insight to my issue or places to start I would highly appreciate it. this is the ONLY issue. it is not battery or charging related because everything else( windows,seats,climate control, lights, and gauges all work normally. thanks in advance for any help any one can offer me and if I am not explaining something clearly please let me know

What about the battery in the fob ?

Thanks for taking the time to skim through my post. I guess by skimming through my well thought out and worded post you MISSED the part where the problem still exists using THE DRIVER DOOR SWITCH. maybe the battery is dead in my driver door switch and BOTH my fobs, the driver door switch does not have a battery you say? no kidding. thanks for the reply but if I thought it was something as simple as batteries in my fobs I would have addressed that. but since the problem happens with BOTH FOBS and the DRIVER AND PASSENGER door lock switches I'm going to go with it is something more than a dead fob battery

Here's a link to a "sluggish" door lock for an F150. I would assume it would be fairly similar to your Mounty. http://www.fordf150.net/articles/idx.php/0/018/article/How-To-Fix-Failing-and-Sluggish-Power-Door-Locks.html

Thank you i will give it a look over and see if it can lead me in the right direction. Me and my first world problems haha

Ok so i just read that article from start to finish and while it may help on the f-150 i feel that is not my problem. I dont see how all 5 locks, 4 doors and the hatch would work fine for the oast couple years and then over night start acting up. I guess i am going to start with trying my sisters window switch out of her explorer and see if that changes anything. If not i may be looking at a used bcm which i need anyways because the code that was programmed for the keyless entry on the doors has been wiped out of the unit. Thanks for that link though
