#3 of 75 99 Navigator Electrical Problem After It Rains by tonykeas Jan 22, 2007 (9:51 am)
I am very familar with your problem. I live in Chicago & have a 2000 Navigator, 3 years ago I went out to my Nav & the battery was dead?? Called the dealer because it was only about 2 weeks after I bought the truck & they replaced the batter without any questions asked. Now again about a month later it happened, so now my investigating skills went into action..... I got in the car & the radio was working & the dummy lights on the dash were blinking on & off spuratically... I got a hold of my friend whos a certified mechanic at the local Ford dealer (different than where I purchased the truck). I described him the exact problems you described & he said its the Gemm Module & another electrical brain box... I paid to have them both replaced & the problem was solved for a couple of months..... now the problem stated again... now I figured out that after it rains is when the truck acts up, they did a pressure test in the washer & found out that there was a leak comming from the sunroof, so I replaced the entire sunroof with a brand new one.... now 6 months later it happens again... IM FURIOUS... they now took apart the entire front part of the car, dash-console-headliner & all.... there was a leak comming from a crack in the firewall, we sent it to the body shop to have it re-welded & i have not had a problem for about a year now........ Good Luck, your going to have to tell them what to look for, because when they call their 800 tech line the tech line is going to tell them exactly to follow the same steps they followed with my problem.

#5 of 75 Battery Drain..Won't start by ljsgator Mar 26, 2007 (2:24 pm)
I have had my '04 ultimate for 2 months. I'm on my 3rd session with the dealer, and my second new battery. I read previous posts and I will say that 1 time it wouldn't start was after a car wash, and another was after a heavy rain. When I first got it I hauled a bunch of kids, and one claimed water came out of the rear dvd player. I have yet to see that. I contacted the former owner, and they claimed they were trouble free for 58k miles. I see no signs of water leaks inside the Gator. Where exactly should I look for water intrusion into the electrical system. What is a method of testing for a short.

#8 of 75 Strange Noise 2006 Navigator by jwill242004 Jul 26, 2007 (9:39 am)
Every now and then I am hearing what sounds like a police siren, in a short 2 second tone. It is coming from the rear of the vehicle inside the cab somewhere and I have no clue what it could be. Anyone heard of this?   J Replies to this message: fhartford (Feb 14, 2008 10:10 am)

Replying to: unit576 (Nov 29, 2007 7:44 am) I had a similar problem with my '04 right after I bought it. The dealership replaced the battery and all that stuff stopped. The new battery went dead, and they put in another one which also went dead. The dead battery issue was finally traced to the rear DVD player. I suspected they jump started the gator and zapped the player. They took it out and all went well. 3 weeks later I put it back in just to see what would happen. No problem. I think something in the player had to reboot. Every once in a while it does get confused and sticks out those running boards for no particular reason, or messes up the seat position. I just restart the gator and it straightens out. Nice Ride.
#11 of 75 2001 navigator electrical issues still by unit576 Nov 29, 2007 (7:47 pm)
tried replacing the battery and no luck. still same problems , all of them !!!! i was told to replace the fuse box and the GEM module. supposedly around these years theyve had problems with leaky windshields resulting in electrical problems. someone let me know if theyve heard of such things and /or have a solution for me....

Replying to: unit576 (Nov 29, 2007 7:47 pm) I have no experience with a GEMM module. I guess you can start pulling fuses one at a time until you find the culprit. My dealership checked for water leaks and found it all dry. I went through 3 different trips to the dealership and 3 batteries and it turned out to be one circuit causing the battery drain.
