I'm assuming this car has the remote keyless entry feature. Does the remote FOB work? Lock? Unlock?

At the remote keyless entry module pin #4 PK/Y is the "lock input". Pin #5 (PK/LG) is the "unlock input". If I understand the wiring diagram, the door lock buttons should ground each of the signals when the switch is activated.

IE, with a VOM meter you should see 12 volts on pins 4 and 5. Do you?

Does the voltage on pins 4 and 5 change when the lock/unlock is used?

With remote keyless entry module connector disconnected and a test light on battery positive. Probe the unlock pin #5. The test light should light when the unlock button is pressed.

Now probe the lock signal pin #4 with the test light. Does the test light light when the lock button is pressed?

Do you have a full set of Ford wring diagrams for your car? If not I maybe able to help. PM if interested.
 
i have no idea what your trying to explain it left me a bit confused.

so the unlock button does nothing but lock works

was the key in the ignition and ignition on? try it both ways and see it could be a shorted ignition circuit
