#51 of 72 Radiator by vibe98 Feb 10, 2008 (10:14 pm)
What would cause my 1998 ford f150 with 192,600 to blow 3radiators in one year. I have a new one now that was under warranty but it would be nice to figure why the right side seals are going bad.   Any sugestion.
#52 of 72 brake lights on when headlights on by kowen Mar 13, 2008 (5:29 pm)
2003 f150. Noticed the left turn signal stopped working but only when my headlights are turned on. Then found that my brake lights go on with my headslights as well. Changed signal and high center brake bulbs and visual check all fuses - ok. Out of my mind with this problem.

Replying to: rickevin29 (Mar 18, 2008 7:50 pm) If the keyless entry will lock the doors your problem might be dirty contacts on the the door switch itself. If the passenger side switch will lock the doors I would concentrate on the door switch first.

Replying to: diehardford (Mar 18, 2008 8:04 pm) Neither door lock switch works, this problem occured after installing an aftermarket remote starter, when I tried to operate the new remote door locks, I seen a spark from under the steering column. something must have blown and guessing a relay Replies to this message: rickevin29 (Mar 20, 2008 12:34 pm) kcram (Mar 20, 2008 3:10 pm) mickeymouse2 (Mar 20, 2008 7:11 pm)

Replying to: rickevin29 (Mar 20, 2008 12:34 pm) I doubt that it is a relay. Most likely your after market remote shorted something out. Recommend close examination of the area that you saw the sparks. Check fuses in interior fuse box and engine compartment. There is a third relay box usually mounted under the dash, drivers side near the heater defrost duct. It holds about 10 relays is black with a black cover. Your relay for power windows, power locks ect is in there. I think your wasting you time checking that first though. Shorts usually occur where the wires melt, sparks ect. My guess is that a power wire that is suppose to be hot at all times, shorted out with your new remote. Either your circuit protection blew a fuse, or a wire melted to ground. The power door lock circut is hot always with the key on or off.
#59 of 72 Ford F150 Electrical Problems by dglarson May 08, 2008 (5:31 am)
I have a 1982 F150, Straight 6 with automatic transmission with the following problem. With engine running but sitting in park the wipers, turn signals, emergency flashers and heater fan do NOT work. I put the vehicle into Drive and the wipers start working but the turn signals, emergency flashers and heater fan still do NOT work. With the Engine OFF but the ignition key turned to On, the wipers, heater fan, emergency flashers and turn signals all Work. This is clearly some kind of electrical problem but I don't know where to look or start. Replies to this message: wpalkowski (May 14, 2008 5:53 am)

Replying to: dglarson (May 08, 2008 5:31 am) From the weird behavior you describe, it sounds like maybe the clock spring inside the steering column may be on its last legs. It makes all the electrical connections for the compnenets inthe steering column.
