Need Electrical help!!!
I'm original owner, 173k miles 2004 newer body style supercab FX4.
Normal for months. Rained 2 days ago. Yesterday drove fine. Today, go out and the power door locks seemed weird. Like they wouldn't lock/ unlock all the way once inside. Hit it a couple times back and forth then NOTHING.
- Now radio stays on when doors opened, with the key removed.
- The drivers door switches stay illuminated all the time
- Sometimes there is a weird clicking sound coming from behind rear supercab seat on drivers side. When it does this.... the head lights flicker/ are barely on even with switch off, key removed!
- There is sometimes a buzz on relay 202?!
Doors, and Panic buttons on key fob does not work at all?
I cleaned all the grounds under the battery/firewall ... 4 in total.
Changed battery; didn't change anything.
I already replaced a bad driver pump module under the rear axle this last December.
I can manually close/open with key for the doors, but it doesn't respond to either power door lock buttons?
---- I've read, and plan to track down this elusive purple wire on drivers side door. Next would be remove backseat and change the anti theft thing behind back seat making occasional buzzing/ clicking sounds???
PLEASE HELP! Kind of scared it's going to ruin a new battery/ catch on fire?! :O
It's my Daily Driver, and I got to have it ready to go. Thanks in advance. Please point me in the right direction?
