2002 F250 7.3 Diesel Electrical issues

[MinnesotaMike]

My door locks were acting up, they would lock after you get to 10 miles an hour ( normal ) but when I was coming to a stop they would start clicking. They did this for a while then they quit. I now have a warning light on the dash, door open. My doors locks do not operate with the fob, my radio stays on after I shut the truck off ( not normal )my backup lights sometimes work sometimes not. Windows work fine though.

I went to the store the other day came out and turned the key, nothing.

After the third time it finally started, runs great other wise.

What could this possibly be? Sounds like a short wire somewhere. I can't trust to use this truck until I get this fixed. Anyone know a good mechanic in the Lino area?

Thx,

Mike

Sounds like a door switch going bad. Most likely the drivers side.

Turns out is was the VSM Vehicle Security Module, 02's were famous for bad units.

Replaced it and all is good.
