possible gem module problem. please help

I have a 2002 f250 v8. When i turn the engine off an take the key out. When I open any door it should cut electronics on as well as turn dome light on but neither happens. The radio stays on and the lights stay off and the door ajar light does not ever come on no matter which door is opened. I really need help on this one. Thanks a lot in advance

Door switches are notorious for failing on these trucks. Sounds like yours never recognise that a door is opened. Try some wd-40 into the latch mechanism, it might solve the problem. Mine thinks the doors are always open, wd-40 was no help, so out with the lightbulbs for now.
