* Exited car. Remote would not lock or unlock car but would flash the tail and front lights when pressed.
What I've done:
* Disconnected battery and connected positive and negative cables. Right after that, the car totally ignores the remote. Tried to resync the remote to the car, but no success.
* Tested and cleaned all fuses in the light switch and in the Underhood driver side fuse boxes.
* Manually tripped the trunk thru the left license plate light hole to get trunk open.
* Checked the Central Lock module in the trunk for water damage. It was completely dry. So was the trunk. Reseated all connectors.
Now what? If you can point me in a direction of next steps to take I will greatly appreciate it.
So the FOB is flashing the lights, that means the FOB IS synced to the SKREEM. No resync is required, as the SKREEM is flashing the lights, this means the FOB and SKREEM are working.
We diagnose electrical stuff with LOGIC, (which is why no one can diagnose electrical issues).
SO:
You have FOB and SKREEM working fine both before and now.
Your locking pump won't lock or unlock the doors, and apparently it left the truck locked - this makes no sense so I will assume you are confused and not describing the symptoms correctly (l
ike the guy who came to my house this weekend, what the car was doing was not what he described, finding his issue was easy.).
Your turn signals and wipers do not work.
Turn Signals and Wipers run off the switched battery feed from the ignition switch.
The locking pump is powered directly from battery feed.
So it does not appear all failures are related. I would need more history here.
Has everything worked up till now?
DId someone work on or modify the car recently?
Has the car acted oddly at any time, in any way, recently?
Does the car have an aftermarket remote-start or keyless entry installed? (If so, drive the car off a cliff and report it stolen.)
What are you leaving out?
