Re: 02 Windstar Battery Dead Intermittently

Hello

It sounds like someone/something is leaving the interior lights on. Does the 2002 have a switch to shut off the dome lights? You would think that Ford would have that problem figured out by now!

I know on my 98 if I don't close the back hatch from the center of the door one side doesn't close and the lights stay on. When I had the old battery in that would be enough to kill the battery.

I would get the battery load tested along with a draw test.

Regards

Dan
