BSM Fuse blows

I am having problems with my automatic door locks blowing a fuse (#102) every time the electronic door lock is activated: inside switch on driver or passenger, Ford's remote, the aftermarket remote, or when I get the speed up over 15 mph.

I bought the truck out of state (the wife's active duty military and we bought and registered it in her home state). I had that dealership there install an alarm before I picked the truck up. Unfortunately, the dealership I work with here is not particularly enthusastic about looking into the problem (not that I can blame them; much). The truck is not even 3 months off the lot; but it will be another 6 months before I get back to the place I bought it.

The finger pointing is beginning to frustrate me. Although I've looked into the door actuator rebuild thread; I'm not sure it's the same problem. Any ideas or suggestions?

Sounds like the alarm is at fault. Can you disconnect or disable it until you can get it back to the original dealer?

It could be the alarm - I really don't know. It did work well for 2 months. It'd been waiting for us at the airport parking lot and when I'd picked it up it'd been cold-soaked and snow snowed upon. (Our biggest 1 day snowfall ever happened the day before). Worked OK when I picked the truck up, but died on the way home.

Unfortunately, it'll be 6 months before I get back to the Pacific Northwet where we bought it. Since my last post, I did find a dealer for that alarm here in town.

Thanks for the thoughts (and your service -- my wife retires in a year).

Please thank your wife for her service as well. Most do not understand the call to duty and sacrifices made. I do notice quite a few Superduty owners here are ex-miltary, warms my heart.

I would try pulling the fuse on the alarm system and see if that doesn't solve the BSM fuse problem.

I grew up North of Seattle, in Snohomish Co. Left it in 2003, traffic and prices got to be too much for us.
