Problems with 2002 Ford Windstar ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Electrical problems with 2002 ford windstar. back window on passenger side does not work sometimes. all the warning lights on the dash will start going on and off by themselves at no specific time. when turning on the turn signal they will go on off frequently. while driving down the road and this happens van has shut off twice. power locks sometimes will not work. interior lights sometimes will not work. all this began to happen when van reached 30,000 miles and warranty ran out. the dealer has not been co-operative because we chose to take our van elsewhere for regular scheduled maintence. dealer also told me that ford would not help because i didn't honor them with my maintence. i am really frustated. my husband is an electrian and also owned his own auto shop for years. he say's this electrical problem is impossible to trace. is it going to take someone getting seriously enjured or loss of life for ford to realize that there is a definate electrical problem in my van. i know other people who have the same problem and can't get any where with ford. *ak

I owned a 2000 ford windstar. the passenger rear door would, upon closing, slide back open frequently. the dealership constantly said nothing was wrong. finally, we traded in on a 2002 ford windstar. within 1 week of purchase the passenger sliding door began sliding back open upon closing - and would jerk back once closed. we have had it worked on 3 different times. it closes now, but has a rattle in it when driving and when the weather changes it makes loud noises when opening and closing. once in a while, upon cold start, the cd player will constantly rotate back and forth - while radio is on or off-until i turn car off and open driver door. when parking, i can open driver door, push lock button, then push unlock button - get out and close door. the security system will flash, indicating activation. keep in mind, the car is uplocked. if i open a door, the horn will begin blowing. as you can see, we have had out fill of ford. this is a company car and the entire mangement staff is fed up.

Driver side sliding door does not open and close all the time. this has been reported three times to the repair shop and all repair attempts have failed to date.*ak over the 18 month period we have owned the vehicle, we have had the drivers power seat repaired, multiple electrical shorts fixed, vcp system repaired twice, as well as several other more minor electrical issues fixed. the quality of this 2002 ford windstar limited has been very poor.

On the date of the incident, i engaged the front windshield defrost button on the ventilation system. the engine immediately stalled, and i lost power steering and brakes. after that, every time the same button was pushed, the engine stalled. this is the second such occurrence, the last time was in april, 2002 when engaging the air conditioner caused the engine to stall.*jb

Brake lights do not work on intermittent basis. at night this can be detected when the dash light goes off. in the day, you don't know. other odd symptems are that when the ignition is shut off the door locks think the key is still in the ignition and won't lock the doors manually. the locks pop back open. *ak

Front impact on passenger side, 1 minute after impact vehicle bursted into flames. unknown speed. no injuries, vehicle was totalled.*ak fire looks as if it started from the top of the engine.

Abs light comes on in the instrument cluster panel this disabled odometer reading, speedometer , od(over drive) begins to flash and heater and air condition stops working , in the cjb (central junction box) 15amp fuse keeps blowing out.each time i replace it. note: when i replace the 15amp fuse every component will be operable for only 10 to 30min driving then the abs lights comes back on and every component mentioned will be disable . *tr
