My Mother-in-Law has a 1997 Expedition with 66,000 miles. Today everything started acting up. The running board lights would not work. All the lights for the info center in the gauge cluster were coming on. The A/C will not work all the time. The doors keep locking and unlocking. You have to turn the windshield wipers on to get the radio to work and when you the vehicle off the radio keeps playing. They disconnected the battery for an hour to try and reset the computer but it did not help. Does anyone have any suggestions ?

Thanks in advance.

Sounds like the GEM (generic electrical module) is malfuncitoning. Has it been raining or did you recently wash the engine compartment?
