Power Locks

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2005 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The power lock/unlock feature requests all of the vehicle doors, including the liftgate, to lock or unlock upon a request from the door lock control switch, the RKE keypad or the RKE transmitter. Power locking and unlocking of the doors function independently of the key position, vehicle speed or transmission position. The vehicle security module activates internal relays to supply the correct voltage and grounds for the door lock actuators.

The liftgate window glass is released, using the RKE keypad or the RKE transmitter, and does not operate if the vehicle speed is greater than 7 km/h (4 mph), the battery has been disconnected and then reconnected, or if the module has been disconnected and then reconnected causing the liftgate window glass release switch to enter the disable mode. The liftgate window glass release switch is reset by unlocking all the doors.
