Need a little electrical knowledge

'98 F150, 4.6 engine, 310k miles.


Wife drove it a few weeks back and when she came home - no pwr windows, no wipers, no interior lights... started troubleshooting and thought maybe a back circuit breaker, so I pulled it out and while it was out, all that stuff started working again.


Had it at the shop I use and they said the 'GEM module' might be going out.
Since then, it has gone out and come back on, twice...


Any experience or thoughts (other than getting rid of it?? LOL )


TIA

Sounds like you have a leaking windshield. And the GEM is getting wet. common for these trucks.
