Power Locks dont work and neither does the trunk release

My Power Locks dont work and neither does the trunk release. I dont know what the issue is or which fuse it is. I dont have a diagram. Oh My horn doesnt work either. Do you think they are all from the same electrical problem?

My car has a fuse box near the battery. when you take the cover off there is a map under the cover to show what all the fuses and relays are. I would check the fuses.

SOURCE: 1999 Grand Marquis remote control - no buttons work

10 year old remotes go bad often, especially due to moisture retention.

Testimonial: "Thank you, yes both(2) remotes are bad. I found a testing machine at a local auto parts store, even with new batteries the remotes do not send signal."

SOURCE: Major Power Problem with 03 Mountaineer Premier

Have the battery tested, perhaps the alternator also. I had the same problem on my 2005 Taurus ( also a Ford / Mercury product ). I replaced the alternator easy enough, and a full charge on the battery solved the problem. The vehicles are designed to shut down unnecessary or non-vital accessories first, as to prevent a major shutdown on the road. So your lights and signals will still work, but the rest of the electrical will power down to conserve the battery.

You can get the battery tested at most service stations or you can buy a tester at any auto parts store. Some of them will test it for free.

Hope this helps.

SOURCE: Trunk lid won't electrically open

Its possible that your problem isnt electricla, maybe mechanical (physical); check the next procedure about Trunk Lid Lock Cylinder REMOVAL & INSTALLATION to confirm and adjust...

zjlimited_1482.jpg

Fig. 1: Pull the trunk lid lock cable upward from the bracket and slide it out of the lock cylinder plate

zjlimited_1483.jpg

Fig. 2: Pull the lock cylinder retaining clip upward

  1. Pull the trunk lid lock cable upward from the bracket and slide it out of the lock cylinder plate.
  2. Pull the lock cylinder retaining clip upward to release the lock cylinder plate.
  3. Remove the lock cylinder plate.
  4. Installation is the reverse of removal.

Add WD40 oil to lubricate all components; about the fuses, you are right, isnt showed in the manual, but could test and check position 25 and 30 in passneger fuse panel (alarm and locking system).

Keep us updated.

The remote to my 2002 cadillac deville dont unlock or lock my doors or open my trunk like it used to. my power locks dont work. i got in the car last week and on car display says theft attempt, the lights...

Either via an actual theft attempt or you (or someone with your keys) not realizing that you/they actually armed the vehicle and opened the door or trunk afterwards.

Essentially this sounds like the vehicle was entered after being armed and the proper precedures not met to reset it.

The car may just need to be locked from the outside with the key (not the remote or keyless entry) while the doors are closed and windows are up, and then also unlocked with the key...

However it sounds as though you have perhaps driven it since then. If this is the case

You may want to check all your fuses and replace the ones affected by the anti theft system.
Security - Pwr Locks - Horn - Pwr Trunk Release _ Int Lights - and maybe The Emergency Flasher as well.

Be sure and check under the Dash, Hood and under the Back seat.

Cadillac recommends after a theft attempt, the vehicle may need to be serviced. So I recommend going through the fuses first, even replacing the battery in your remote fob and then if the problems still persist. have the vehicle serviced.

Good Luck and Happy Motoring

Boot not opening with remote or indoor lever third brake light not working told by merc could have broken wire but i want to try fue first but cannot find which fuse no diagram eclass 220 cdi 06

okay the dealer may be right,the wiring sometimes breaks from opening and closing trunk,the trunk release operates on the same power as door locks, if door locks work its not a fuse,check the wiring harness in the trunk near hinge, this system is a complex one,so if you dont see a broken wire in the harness,(you will have to untape the wiring to see every wire) have a tech check the system.
