What is a Generic Electronic Module?

The Generic Electronic Module (GEM) is found on Ford vehicles and is basically a Body Control Computer. It controls many of the following functions on most Ford vehicles:

  • Warning chimes and warning lamps
  • One-touch down driver's side window
  • Daytime Running Lamps
  • Heated rear window
  • Windshield washers and wipers
  • Battery saver
  • Remote keyless entry
  • Illuminated entry with remote keyless entry
  • Interior lighting
  • Perimeter anti-theft
  • Four-wheel drive

The GEM is bolted to the back of the fuse box.
Sometimes though the fuse box gets water in it and causes the same problems too.

How do you replace a 2001 ford expedition gem module?

The GEM is bolted to the back of the fuse box. REMOVAL: Disconnect the battery ground cable. CAUTION: Electronic modules are sensitive to electrical charges. If exposed to these charges, damage may result. Remove the steering column opening cover. Remove the bulkhead electrical connectors from the (B) instrument panel fuse junction panel. Remove the instrument panel fuse junction panel bolts and remove the interior fuse junction panel nuts. Disconnect the GEM electrical connectors from the GEM. Remove the screws and the GEM. NOTE: When the battery is disconnected and reconnected, some abnormal drive symptoms may occur while the vehicle relearns its adaptive strategy. The vehicle may need to be driven 16 km (10 mi) or more to relearn the strategy. Hope this helps,
