Hello, I've got a problem with my 1997 Expedition. I use it to plow with.
I will leave the Expedition running and I will get out to shovel by hand or salt. The drivers side door will lock me out. No other doors will lock. I have an extra key and FOB but it will not let me in. I have to get in the back seat and open the door.
I have put a vise grip on the actual lock but the door still locks. Yes, I have manually disabled the automatic door lock out.
Anyone have any ideas?
I was thinking about going to the fuse box under the hood. Taking out the #3 slot 30 amp power lock fuse. I took this fuse out but it did not help the problem. In fact when I went to use both of my keys to open the drivers side door it would not let me in. The keys did open the passenger side.
I have talked with the local Ford dealer and they have never heard of this problem.
