Hello,

Got a 97 Expo that drains the battery overnight. I noticed a slight electronic smell coming from behind the dash, and yes, the door ajar light does come on. When I scanned the PCM, it came up at LF door damper motor.

Am I to guess the faulty door switch has killed the GEM causing it to keep the dome lights on randomly thus killing the battery?


Appreciate any ideas or suggestions.

Maybe pull the door switch fuse, charge the batt, and see if you have located the problem the next day (?). If so, clean, or replace the switch. Test again.
