#171 thanks for the info! 1, check actuator switch-inside dash behind radio, cd player-
closes door to change from ac to heat, 2, check water flow through heater core inside
vehicle, usually near passenger side front door under dash, 3, may need to flush
cooling system for partially clogged radiator and/or heater core, good luck!

All four parking lights will not go on.
I know the switch, bulbs, fuses & relays are good.
Any ideas??? How do I fix this?
Thanks

I also have a Winstar 02 (LX) with 66,000 mi. The van became very erratic since it became 60,000 miles old. I cannot open the driver side power window. The passenger-side window can be opened from the driver side switch but cannot be closed from the same switch. However, the passenger window can be opened and closed from the passenger side. The rear vent window appeared to have stopped working. They were on and off for some time. Fortunately, they stopped at the closed position. Your post shed some lights. But I also hear that these problems could be due to a problem of the Front Electronic Module. I couldn’t find any one supplying this part and some one said only Ford carries this and it is very expensive. Probably, I need to talk to car wreck guys.
 
We also had the same problem – no hot air. I just solved this. Mine was the “Front Air Door Actuator”. I paid $50 to get the part from Pepboys. Same price as those on the Internet. I opened the old actuator and found that the gear wheels were made from plastic, and one of the gear wheel’s teeth had been damaged. Suggestioon for Ford is to get some good material for that tiny wheel. Even some good plastic can increase the life time of this car. That is why the AC door was always at the Cold Fresh air position. Changing this self needs to remove the radio and the panel. If you change it by yourself, make sure you plug power supply to the new actuator and slide the temperature control slightly away from the Coldst position, so that the actuator can be placed in the fixture in the car. Good luck.
