Not inferior at all! They are perfect if used in the right places for the right purposes.

BTW, I could even provide you with a photo of where the unlock relay is on a SuperDuty! But alas, not a B-II. :-((

Sorry I can't be better help to you tonight.

Was just kidding of course !

Thanks again Pop...

 

Do you have the wiring diagram?

I do, if you need it...

A lot of pink wires there, all with different tracer colors.

Pop

 

Yes, I do... thanks... it's in Chilton.

When I called Ford today, it took the parts guy 45 minutes to try to locate the part. I don't think he found the right part... he said Ford calls it a "breaker." I did find a breaker behind the carpet above the passenger foot well, and when it tripped, my engine stopped. Reset, the engine started right up. But I don't think he actually found the right part when he gave me the number... AND, he said it was NLA...

 

Looks really simple.

Does your diagram look like this:

Pop

 

yep, exactly like that. Of course, with the way the wires run in the Bronco II, that diagram is just like a hangman stick figure lol!

 

Remember also, it could be a bad NC contact in the Lock relay, too, or a bad ground to the pigtail wire on that one, too.

These relays might be standard Bosch SPDT automotive-types, available at any parts store, so I would stay away from your "friendly" Ford dealer for them.

But I think we've hijacked this thread, and should take it to the other forum from here on.

Thanks Pop...I'll give my door locks a shot or two of WD today. I do remember reading about this in the loooooonnnnggg door actuator thread, but by the time I got through it all I was a little wacky.

Just a question where in the world do you guys come up with these wiring diagrams?

 

books........

 

Thanks Pop, My truck no longer insists that my doors are ajar.

This was a great fix. I did the 5 locks in my wifes 2000 Excursion earlier this week. The first one (passenger rear) took a little while but the drivers side rear door only took about 30 minutes. The front passenger took a little longer and the drivers front about an hour...dang padded entry wiring. The back hatch was not all that bad either. While I was on a roll I did dads 2001 F250 extended cab. I noticed his truck had a hole in the door right where the actuator is which made it much easier...20 minutes start to finish! Now I need to figure out how to fix that back large window motor on the Excursion...

 

I understand that but what are the names of said books so in can get them?

 

So glad I found this site. My door locks haven't worked in years. can't believe how such a little thing can make you feel so much happier with your truck!

 

Me too , it's a pain to walk around or reach over and manually operate those door lock posts all the time.
