Possessed Ford? I used my remote to unlock my door and the radio turned on without starting my truck. we recently had some lightning storms so I disconnected the battery thinking it would reset itself. I recieved a phone call stating that my truck was trying to start itself. the lights came on and it was trying to turn over. all this without the keys. No I do not have an autostart. I disconnected the battery for the night. Any answers?

Had the same problem. You need to fix the leak first. It is one of two places. Keep battery disconected both power and ground. I used a hose to find the leak. It is either leaking from the front windshield or the sunroof and possibly the firewall. The water is comming in by the driver's side A-pillar. It then goes right down the main wiring harness to the main fuse block. There the water fills up and starts shorting everything out. You won't blow a fues because it is inside the block itself. Mine was so coroded with stuff you would not believe. The new part is about $200 and it is not that hard to replace. I used a whole can of contact cleaner to try to fix mine. Don't do it. Part of the fuse block had melted from all the shorts. I have it apart now am going to take some photos. Seems we are not alone.
