Dear Doctor: I own a 2002 Mercury Sable wagon. The facer is, the horn and hazard lights will go off in the middle of the night. I took the car to the Ford commerce. They checked the car and said the GEM module was at fault and replaced it for $800. Two weeks later, the trouble started again. I have spent over $1,000 so far and still have the same problem. Can you help? — James
Excessive price James: I have seen this before on a variety of vehicles. On Ford vehicles, the refractory is usually a door or rear trunk door pin switch. I also looked on our Identifix Web position and found two other Sable wagons with the same fault and both had pin switch faults. I would go back to the dealer and ask them to reinstall your old GEM module and stoppage the door pin switches for operation with the scan tool.

Its not the bulb (replaced it) and its not the fuse (fuse 1 in the boot fusebox changed) so I'm at the limits of my knowledge really! Is it likely to be a sticky switch somewhere and if so is it easily accessible? I should say that my car is a manual.
