2005-2009 S-197 Gen 1 Shaker1000 / A/C Vent Motor and Noise in Dash!
Hello,
since i live overseas i hope find some good answers here..
I bought my car 2 years ago. Everything was fine until temperatures droped and cold weather came. If the car was parked for2,3 days battery dead. So , bought a new battery , but happen d the same. So after some forums research i found that i have to change the cd drive mechanism from my sh1000, wich displayed message CD ERROR all the time, and was not working.
So, i placed the order on rockauto and change it. That happen in spring( because of a loooong shipment from usa to romania) and after change it everything worked perfect. No cd error message, cd works fine , battery hold for ever.
This until ... winter came again...
I keep the car in an unheated garage and a few days ago when i want to start the car , after 3 weeks, battery flat dead. So... i charged the battery,and start the car. Than surprize !!! Big one. Cd player not working and message CD ERROR came back , and if this isnt enough i have a strange noise in dash board ...
So my question is cd driver mechanism is broke again because of cold weather(when i parked the 3 weeks ago cd works fine) and sucked all the battery, or battery was sucked by another consumer and broke the cd drive mechanism ??
And what is that annoing noise , its related with flat battery or with shaker ? Or its just a coincidence ?
Any thoughts ??

I was always under the impression that a new radio had to be married to the car with a Ford scanner as I had mine done under warranty for a CD skipping TSB. I've never heard that sound before but one thing I can tell you is a battery maintainer is necessary or the modules in this car will weaken the battery in short time. I always turned off all accessories including the Shaker setting on the radio before storing or knowing I wouldn't be driving for some time. If you can't use a battery maintainer I'd probably just disconnect the battery for longer no drive conditions. The radio still maintains the station presets but the KAM may be lost.

The only solutions that Ford recommends are if the vehicle is not being used for prolonged periods of time, make sure all accessories are turned off manually. If your vehicle has a factory active alarm system, do not use the remote for locking the doors, as using the remote will keep the alarm system incline sensors activated which will end up drawing current continuously. Ford also strongly recommends running either a battery maintainer/tender charger or disconnect the battery altogether. It's also recommended to not purchase a battery if it's been sitting on the shelf for more than 6 months.
Anyhow since following Ford's recommendation, my Motorcraft batteries have lasted for 3+years.

At first, I also thought it was the shaker 500/1000 that drained the batteries until taking my car to 2 different dealerships that performed a full diagnostic test of the electrical system. Needless to say, it was determined the shaker 500 was not the cause, but rather the ECM modules such as the KAM (keep alive memory) and active alarm system modules which are constantly drawing milliamp current and according to Ford, is considered as normal.

I have this issue in my 2005. I haven't got into it yet other then some research on the parts and how to do it but it seems like its always the top one. The hardest one to replace. Go figure.
