Want this question answered?
There certainly is Not, its extremely possible that such an event could happen.
Try using the key to open the lock mechanism while the door is unlocked.
There is no inside "trunk" - rear hatch release button on the Windstar.The only way to open it is at the rear hatch itself.
While pulling on the handle as if to open the hatch, take a screw driver and pop the locking mechanism/latch to the open position. It should work no problem.
My 2002 Tribute has the same problem, caused by central locking motor failure in the back hatch.
The handle is the only way to open the hatch (trunk?) on a Windstar. There is no inside button for it like in a sedan like a Taurus.
I have one key for my 2002 gti, I can not lock the lid. The key wiil not enter the lock. The doors will lock and the rear lid will alarm when opened. Something is in order.
no - every Windstar came with at least 1 side door (1995-1998) and 2 side doors 1999-2003 - all along with the rear hatch.
I have a 96 Chevy Blazer S-10 and the latch to open the window in the back hatch will not work. How do I replace the motor?? or whatever to repair?
First thing to check would be the contact switch that the hatch touches when it is in the closed position. It may either be broken or corroded and not sending the proper signal to the warning light.
On a 1999 Ford Windstar, the expansion valve is located just inside the rear hatch of the rear panel on the driver's side. It is connected to the rear evaporator core.
if there is handle inside pop of screw caps or covers take out screws grab moulding (if you own van ) and quick short pull on either side lift up over lock and pull out botom
