I have an interesting and annoying problem.
Last week I parked the car in the driveway and the door locks wouldn't lock with the key fob.
Here is what I found so far:
The locks work to lock with the door buttons but not unlock.
The trunk popper doesn't work at all.
The gas door popper doesn't work at all.
None of the interior lights or trunk light work.
The car turns over but won't start.
I checked all the fuses and they are all good. The seats still move. The windows still work.
When I press the door button to unlock I can here a clicking in the trunk.
All the troubleshooting in the Ford manual points to a bad door lock module.
The question is, why will the car not start with bad door locks? There is no anti-theft module in my car and even if there was that would cause the engine to not turn over.
Any ideas?
