System Failure

[Monram]

A good friend of mine gifted me with this vehicle, and I fell in love with it, I have been fixing a few things here and there, the vehicle has been running great, however the other day I noticed that the power windows went out along with the 4 wheel drive lights high and low blink six times and the dome lights along with vanity mirror lights do not work. I couldn’t get it out of park I finally removed the shift solenoid to be able to get it out of park and move it into my garage. This all broke on the same day. No blown fuses. Relay tests SOUND like they are fine. I have gone through the entire electrical system battery, alternator, relays, fuses and everything seems to be working but I can’t find a solution for this. Is there anyone out here that has run into this problem, can you be so kind and help me. Thank you very much.

If you have an OBD reader, you could plug that in to see if any codes- O'Reilly auto parts will also do that for free. If it can't communicate with your system, may indicate a computer problem, the one that controls the interior light circuits. Don't know if it also controls shift solenoid. This is from what I have read - I've not had electrical problems so far.

Sound like you have a bad ground. I would have too look a the grounding diagram to confirm which ground is bad.

1. There is a dimmer module. Also check ground G100, terminal pin 6 on the module.
LH side of engine compartment, middle of fender.
2. To shift out of park, you need to step on the brake.
