04 Navigator running boards

ok i did the install.......basic install......cust now tells me that the running board doesnt always come out from under the truck...also the memory seats dont work right.....they go up but not forward.....any ideas?????


i know the running boards work when you open the door.....they work fine after the install. its been about a week now and these things are acting up....are the two tied together some how?????

I haven't worked on one of them yet, so I'm taking some guesses here. Are the running board coming out when the vehicle is off but not coming out when the vehicle is remote started? That feature might not work when the ignition is on.

No idea on the memory seats.

Did you fire up the BLACK/ green accessory wire at the ignition switch (assuming you installed a R/S)? If not, the running boards won't work.. As for the memory seats, did you hook them up to your system or they are just not working right in general? Also, what did you install in the vehicle?

hey mike, i used the info that you sent me......the running boards were working...........no i didnt hook them up to my system.........its an Omega Max-E with the Echo-2 transmitter..........i dont think its the system...she said the seats only go up and down......and the running boards work sometimes.....not really sure what she means by sometimes.......i not sure that it has anything tp do with the install, however you know how it goes.....last one to touch it, you broke it!

besides, she blonde.....

Use the factory alarm disarm output (probably negative, so add a relay) to pulse 12 volts to the BLACK/ pink (positive, double check this) key sense wire at the steering column. This should activate the running boards when you hit unlock. I can't remember offhand if the factory remote even does this though. The problems she describes might be from using the factory remote one time, then the aftermarket another etc. Not sure if the key sense is related to the seats not working as well, but give it a shot and see what happens.
