Power locks, windows, radio shut-off don't work
I'd like to possibly save someone time if they have all/most of the following issues: 1. Power windows stop working 2. Power locks stop working 3. Auto shut-off for radio doesn't work properly 4. Dome light not working properly
Check the black ground wire in the bundle between the front driver's door & the cab. You'll need to slide back the protective rubber boot to do this. I'll bet the wire is severed here.
Splicing with a connector can be difficult due to short wire length.

Right you are GB509. Checked my F250 last night and the large black wire was broken about 3 inches from the door. I removed the door panel and speaker. Then I slid the boot through the hole in the door and part way down the harness. Stripped both ends of the broken wire and crimped on a butt splice. Slid the boot back and reassembled the door. Everything works as it should. Took me about 1/2 an hour. Thanks for the great call.
