I just bought a late manufacture 2001 Explorer Sport. It's in good shape, has been very well maintained and has 187k on it. Other than the dog hair in the way-back & a filthy(!) driver's seat I think I made a good buy for $2000. I also have a 2003 Escape 2wd w/ 190+K on it that I'll probably get rid of.
I have a problem on the Explorer; I can't override the auto door locks & make them stay that way. I've repeadedly done the Ford 'Hokey Pokey' according to the user guide but after a few minutes they go back to the auto lock mode. Since I've owned a number of Fords ('95 Explorer, '00 Taurus, '02 Windstar, '03 Escape) I'm pretty well versed in the process. I even tried it with the keyless lock pad but it reverts to auto lock after a couple of mins of driving.
Any ideas? I've heard on something called a GEM and am wondering it it's the cause and where in blazes is it located?
Thanks!!
