Question:

1996 Explorer has recently had a failure of both keyless remotes, the door keypad, the autolock feature, and the flashing theft light in the dash… I presume that it is the RAP module, has anyone else experienced this type of failure? If so, will the existing remotes and keys work with a new RAP module?

Ha ha, I had the exact same problem after I installed my aftermarket cd changer.  For some reason, I took the rear panel off then tap on some connections, it worked again.  It’s very weird.  I don’t know how to answer your question.  I guess if you want to replace the RKE system, you can go to a junkyard and find an Explorer that has one and install it in your truck.  I hope this at least help ya in some way.  Good luck!
