I know this is the wrong forum, but in a frantic search via Google, this thread came up, and I was hoping one of you had seen something like this before in a similar tiny little inferior truck !
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.

Do you have the wiring diagram?

I do, if you need it...

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

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...

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.

"Door Ajar"

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.

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...
