my explorer has had a problem in the past when there was alot of rain and moisture outside i could turn the key on and nothing. not a sound. but all the lights was on and the battery was good. Well it has been raining all day here today. I went to start it up and nothing. I switched the EEC relay and another relay around and it started. I went to advance auto to buy a relay. i pulled both relays out to put the other relay back and the alarm went off. I turned the alarm off bought the new relay put it in the everytime i started the explorer the alarm would go off! about 6 times. then it would not start and i noticed that when i would turn the key on the check engine light would not lite up and the explorer would not do nothing when i tried to start it. I switched all the relays and it would not start and no check engine light. I then unplugged the batt for ten minutes. put the relay in i bought and still no check engine lite and no start. I then switched the blower motor relay and the new ecc relay and it started with no alarm. I drove it home shut her off and the alarm goes off? any ideas why? i then switched the relays back and now it starts fine. why would the relay not work one minute then work the next? any help would be appreciated. Thank you
 






does anyone know how to unhook the alarm? i have to start it from the solenoid because everytime i use the ignition the alarm goes off. or when i shut it off the alarm goes off. when it is sitting the alarm will go off every 5 to ten min. i have to disconnect the batt. help please................
 






I found my alarm remote put batteries in it and i had to cycle through it a couple of times. then my explorer started like it was supposed to no alarm. not sure why changing a relay caused it but thought id let you all know it is fixed now. thanks for reading.
