I have a 2003 Explorer that has what I feel is an electrial problems. First of all I live in the Chicago area. The problems start when the weather gets warm and humid. The problems are as follows-the left rear window will not work, the door ajar lite stays on [I know that all of the doors are closed], the cruise control will not work, and the 4 wheel drive high and low light will flash on and off twice. Right now all of the above problems are going on and the weather is warm and humid. When the weather cools off and the humidity goes down these problems go away.
So without taking the car back to ford, can I fix it?
Thanks for the help,
Charlie

Attached are some tsb's for power windows and cruise control. With so many symptoms I would get the schematics for this vehicle and look for common points in the systems with problems and also look at power distribution and ground connections. It may take some time to track all the poor connections down.

Royesses makes an excellent point on the possibility of a bad ground or possible short/open wire.

Here are the power distribution and ground distribution wiring diagrams for a 2003 Explorer.

You might also want to check all the fuses too - just a thought.

Hope this helps.
