no matter what i do its like my truck has a mind of its own it only shuts off when it wants to. and im afraid its going to run my battery dead! does anyone have any suggestion to what i could do?

 

well, shutting the door is a big first step ...


What year and body are we talking about here -- not too uncommon for the sensor in the passenger door being an issue for the past 10+ years or so... Many of thosse have wires cut, or a little lubrication applied ...

 

Spray the latch mechanism inside the door with PB Blaster or WD 40. Open and shut the door a few times and if needed , spray it again.
The door switch for the dome light and dinger is mounted on the latch and gets dirty.

 

^ That will do it.

 

thanx that is exactly what i did. works like new

 

Disconnect the Negative cord to the battery for 5 minutes. Then connect it back, this will reset all the sensors.

 

RF has the best Ford technicians in the game. Their trouble shooting skills are phenomenal. Good job gentlemen.

Done and done, nothing to see hear, move along, thread closed, thanks for looking.

 

Praise is nice , but we'd rather have cookies.
Thanks.
