Default 06 F150 Electrical Problem

Ok so I got an 06 f150 cut super crew about 2 months ago and ever since I've had it I've noticed a few problems. First was the radio wouldn't shutoff with the ignition off and key out, I haven't timed it exaclty but it's about 10 minutes. Also power mirrors do not work, when the truck is off or running, when the doors are opened the interior lights do not come on, nor does the door ajar light. I've looked on this forum for any kind of solution to my problems and I seen something about 2 violet wires into 1 wrappee up in the "hockey tape" usually get corroded underneath the rear driver side door sill. I looked and couldn't find it, but I found 2 green wires into 1 in between the front and rear doors, replaced the wires on those becuase those were correded. I kept searching for the "hockey tape" wires and finally found them going into the rear pillar but they were I think brown, can't remember but I know they weren't violet. But those wires were perfectly fine. I seen somewhere about a 3rd brake light water leak could be causing some kind of corrosion to the wires that control all of those things? Or could the problem be km the wiring going to the door?

I would check the harness running into the door. It sounds like a few wires got pinched.

Ok so it just got done checking out the wiring harness at the door. There were a few wires that were broken so I fixed those and still nothing. No interior lights come on, radio doesn't shut off, no door chime and no power mirrorsupply work. So I went ahead and cut all the wires just to make sure there were no others broken that I couldn't notice and there werent. I did notice 4 wires were cut up above my gas pedal, don't know where they are supposed to go but they are coming out of a loom under the dash, so I'm sure they gotta be wired up to something. Not sure if that has anything to do with my problem or not though.

See if you can find a wiring diagram for the "accessories delay" circuit online. If you can, figure out what those 4 wires are. I would search for the other end of the cut wires. Then splice them back together. It could be that someone cut those wires because they were easier to get to than the ones in the door.

Also, I'm assuming you've checked the fuses and the accessories delay relay. If not, check those.

Yup just got done checking those and still nothing. Could it be wires in the door sill or even pinched wires in all of the doors?

Most definitely. Unless you're checking for continuity(ohms), you can't rule out any wires.

I've been having a similar problem. Every so often the dome/map lights wouldn't turn on whether I tried turning them on or had the door open. And if the dome lights weren't turning on then the light in the shifter/center console wouldn't turn on as well. And rolling up the passenger window from the drivers seat wouldn't work sometimes too but if you tried rolling it up from the passenger door it'd have no problem. Yesterday I went to replace the bulbs in the map/dome light and one of the bulbs had burned up and the plastic housing around the bulb had melted down into the bulb connector and wiring, so once I took it apart and cleaned it all my lights turned on/off just like they should and no more problems rolling up the passenger window!

So I checked all the doors and there are broken wires in all of them. Didn't have much time to fix all of the doors but I fixed the 2 rear doors with the broken wires and still nothing works right. When they are opened the radio still doesn't shut off, lights dont come on and no door ajar light.

So I still haven't found out the problem. So I decided to take out the back seats so I could get my key less entry code for my door and then I found at the bottom of the body security module there's a wire that looks like it came apart. I couldn't find any other wires that looked like it went to it, so if anybody has any wiring diagrams or any kind of input it would be much appreciated.
