Why does your 2000 Expedition Eddie Bauer edition turn itself on when its parked in the rain?

Answer 1

We have a 2001 EB Expedition that continually turned lights on, locked and unlocked the doors, turned the fan motor on and eventually tried to crank itself when it rained. They have replaced the brain and 2 starters. The culprit is probably your windshield, drivers side corner at the bottom will leak around the seal and let water run into the fuse and computer area in the car. Try checking on the windshield to see if you may have a leak. We put a thick paper in the corner to see if it became wet when it rained, sometimes you can't see the leak until it is bad. We also have a 99 that does the same thing but the computer is located in a different spot. email macsmorgan@hotmail.com
