    Air suspension compressor relay plug wiring diagram

    Are you asking about an Expedition, or something else. My compressor relay has 4 plugs on it. But my system is custom aftermarket. No one can help you without knowing about your vehicle.

    keyless entry

    When you program an new remote, all old remotes will be overwritten. Only the remotes activated at the time of reprogramming will continue to work. I know this because the little loop that the jump ring goes through broke on both of my brand new (in 2002) Expedition remotes. I bought pretty...

    keyless entry

    My wife has a 2009 Focus and I drive an '02 Expedition. We have a total of 4 remote fobs, each one of them will work for both vehicles. Almost guarantees she can't lock her keys in the car. Each time you reprogram. you erase the vehicles memory of all "connected" remotes. My Expedition will...

    2002 4.6 crank no start

    When I did my fuel pump, I have an '02 5.4 XLT 2WD, I dropped the tank, but I learned that the plug to the fuel pump is accessible with the tank still in, IF, you jack up the back end, support it with jack stands and let the rear axle hang on the shocks. It is kinda like a contortionist circus...

    Upgrading engine and drivetrain?

    If I had nothing but money and time to spend, I'd find a 7.3 Power Stroke and tranny out of an '02 F 250. Build that lil bitty combo up to just a hair over what it was stock, and stick it the hole where the 5.4 used to be. Might require a body lift and some trimming to make it all fit.

    WOW!!! That stuff is almost as scarce as radiator shims for a '69 VW Beetle.

    Do I need a load leveling suspension

    According to this, you can tow up to 6000lbs with 600lbs tongue weight without an equalizer hitch. https://www.ford.com/resources/ford/general/pdf/towingguides/17RV&TT_Ford_Expedition_Sep7.pdf Load leveling suspension might be "convenient" while towing, but I'd think for a few times a year...

    What oil/filter do you use?

    Kinda what I figured. My '02 owners manual says "Only use oils “Certified For Gasoline Engines” by the American Petroleum Institute (API). Use Motorcraft or an equivalent oil meeting Ford specification WSS-M2C153–H." and "WSS-M2C153-H with API Certification Mark". I expect that if T6 5W-40...

    What oil/filter do you use?

    I just ran into this tidbit. Rotella T6 5W-40 is no longer API SN certified. T6 5W-30 is, but not 5W-40. https://rotella.shell.com/products/t6-full-synthetic.html https://rotella.shell.com/products/shell-rotella-t6-multi-vehicle-5w-30-full-synthetic-heavy-duty.html

    Brake Lights not working...

    On my 02, the brake light and rear turn signal and rear hazard use the same bulb, but a different filament that the tail lights do, so if the brake bulb is bad, turn signals and hazards are also out. First! Make sure the rear hazard lights are working. If they are, the bulbs are good. I'm...

    P0500 VSS Fault

    Got the manual. I wish it had a search function. It is a software package, not a .pdf version of a paper manual, and it isn't what I was expecting. Not what I would call "user friendly" - but,,, However, for now, I think the perceived issue is not really an an issue at all. The certified...

    Has anyone use these Tow Mirrors?

    I've had them on for about 2 years, and had very little trouble with them sliding out. The driver's side will oooooch out about 1/8" and stay there. The passenger side stays all the way in. The main mirror is indeed heated, but the convex are not.
