I have a 1999 Safari with a strange electrical problem. My power locks and power windows have all stopped working almost. The windows go down slowly but come up in 2 inch increments over 5 attempts every minute. It is like the voltage is down and they lack the power for a continued push. The locks are the same. They make the locking and unlocking sounds but lack the power to actually activate the locks. Both happened the same day. Any ideas?
For all you who are dissing Safari vans because they are unreliable that has not been my experience I just bought a 99 with 215000 ks on it for 1300 but it was poorly maintained and I have some small things to fix to get it up to snuff. This is my third well used safari Passenger van I have bought for use as a construction vehicle, They hold a 4x8 sheet of plywood with the doors closed, can tow 2000 pounds, get 20 plus mpg and can carry 8 passengers if necessary. I get them with over 200000 k and take them to the wreckers with 325 or so ks. Rarely have major problems. Only complaints: Really hard to change plugs and I have had to change the fuel pump on last two vans. Other than that ignore the dash lights, keep the oil and water topped up and go to work. Pay 1500 for van, spend 500 on maintainance for 100,000 kms and sell to wrecker for 400. Pretty good deal!
