DOOR LOCKS INOPERATIVE - FUSE 2.30 OPENING INTERMITTENTLY

LINCOLN:
2002-2004 Town Car

ISSUE
Some 2002-2004 Town Car vehicles may exhibit the door locks being inoperative when using the keypad and/or remote keyless entry (RKE) fob. This may be due to a short in circuit 797 causing fuse 2.30 to open.

ACTION
Check Circuit 797 (LG/VT) for shorts to ground. Perform wiggle test and monitor DVOM. Potential areas for shorts are under the front passenger seat, behind rear seat back, and C-pillar. After repairing any shorts, or if no shorts are found, remove the keypad to check the part number. If the engineering part number stamped on the part is 1F2T-14A626-ADW, replace the keypad with 1F2Z-14A626-AAA, or the latest level part available. The latest level part will have engineering prefix 4W1T or higher stamped on the new part.
