    A friend of mine went to the dealer for he recall and the car came back with more issue. The parking light will stay on for a whooping 5 min before going all dark. The head light are always on tho but nothing else I have not done the recall on my 04 and will most likely wont after seeing how its been done.

    I find it amazing that Ford would come up with a recall with this much hackery instead of just desoldering/soldering on new relays. Is that really that much harder? Why do they think a talented auto tech can't desolder/solder parts on a PCA but *can* pull off this wiring mess?

    Canadian Marauders have DRL's that keep just the headlights on all the time.

    Mine works perfect Since repaired, PROPERLY. The only thing that I need to get used to is, the new one is a wee bit louder and crisper sounding than the OEM. I'm sure after 13 years and 110,000 miles, I'll get used to it........

    I just my recall done, I personally know the tech working on it and didn't leave the car side during the operation...lol, no issues works fine.......I guess it depends on how good the tech is, the tech who did mine has done over 20 so far and made it look easy...

    Well, I think the official fix queered a deal on my car.

    Shortly after the fix I had to replace a fuse. Not sure what I did to make it blow.

    While test driving the car today the potential buyer had the passenger door open and toggled the door lock/unlock. After that the AC was dead, the clock was off and the dome and under dash lights were dead.

    Replaced the fuse and all was fine.

    I am tempted to remove the fix to see if it fixes the problem. I just can’t contort to work under the dash.

    Would an LCM out another Panther work? I can get more than a few of them.

    Yes, others years will work but you will experience the same problem if it's not already happening with the "replacement" LCM.

    Just wanted to know if one out of a wreck would do for a core to send to you.
