Recently I?ve experienced several strange problems with the 2003 EXT. Once, at 2:30 AM, the content theft alarm went off (alarm sounds, lights flash) without any tampering, and it shut itself off after a couple of minutes.
Two days later I unlocked the doors with the key fob and the alarm went off instead. After shutting off the alarm, I started the truck and saw the ?Left Rear Door Ajar? message on the DIC, but that door was fully closed.
During the next week, I had left the truck parked for three days and unlocked it with the key fob, but the truck would not start. When I inserted any of the keys into the ignition, the DIC returned an ?Unknown Driver? message. The only way I was able to resolve this was to disconnect and reconnect the battery, then the DIC recognized one of my keys as ?Driver 1? and I was able to start the truck. Now I?m driving around with a wrench in the console in preparation for the next time I have to disconnect and reconnect should this happen again.
Anyone experience similar problems and have a resolution? Thanks!
