Power locks & electrical issues.

[retrory]

Hi, I have a '94 Limited Explorer, having trouble with the power locks. They will lock on ly when the engine is running, won't unlock at all and when you press the lock button after it's been locked the dash and headlights will flicker. Also none of the interior lights work.

Welcome to this forum! I've moved your thread into the stock 91-94 section. Verify that your door switches are working properly.

When you say the lights flicker, do you mean that they pulse on and off in a steady fashion, or is it a random flicker? Is your security light on or off during the flicker?

power windows and mirrors work fine, the flicker in the lights occurs when I try to active power unlock, and the doors will not unlock. Seems to be nothing wrong with power lock, however engine must be running for them to work.

I have the same annoying problem

Hey friends, thanxs for all the post, I did used many of them to fix some problems with my 4x4 1994 eddie bauer explorer.

I really need help whith this................

I recently have the same annoying problem of RETRORY, on my radio, interiors lights and the power locks, etc... the flicker headlights, but.... all this since I use a jumper on the HVAC blower control harness, due to a blower issue on the A/C, (I have to mention, in that moment the 4 windows elevators were broken, You can imagine the hot flashes that makes summer here in cancun, that forced me to fix urgently 3 of them changing the bushings and other wiring stuff).

So I did jump the harness.... trying to make the blower on, I know, I did fail, and inmediately have almost a short (or actually I have it), makes since that moment all lighting and power become to zero. None on the dashboard, directional lights, headlights, horn, power windows.

Hope this will help to find whats wrong there.

NEXIS: yes, is steady fashion the flicker, if I push constantly the power locks buttom, the headlights remains on. I noticed on night time, lol.

I suspect that a wire is melted, but I have no idea what or where to find it on

any idea ???????


Thanks again for all comments
