    Not the same noise

    Thanks! However, I found it, and it was very intuitive. I will be checking everything over this weekend based on that and other info I read. Thanks for replying though!

    Not the same noise

    Thanks, I appreciate the replies. I thought bearings as well, but the noise doesn't seem to follow a typical bearing noise. But I'm going to check them anyway, just in case. As for the IWB solenoids, I apologize, but what and where are those? What do I need to do to check them?

    Not the same noise

    Good evening all. After searching around, I believe I may have an issue/noise different than most. I cannot find anyone with my exact issue, so I'm hoping to tap into the great brains here. On my 2010 XLT EL, in the past 2 weeks, I have noticed a humming/groaning type noise in the front end...

    Another towing question

    Thanks for the replies. I had checked the Ford site originally, but is only said Tow Package, I could not find the famous 576 or 586 package number, or whatever the number is. It also said I had the Anti-sway Package. I went out and looked today, the 7-pin is definitely factory, as is the...

    Another towing question

    Yeah, I guess that's true, never thought of that. Just my luck. :favorites68: Has anyone added an aftermarket cooler in and around that location? Mounting the cooler seems to be straightforward I guess, it's the plumbing I'd be a bit lost on.

    Another towing question

    Yep I figured that, because I know what one is. But why do I keep reading that "if the 7-pin connector is there, the vehicle has it"? If this is true, when did this change? And has anyone plumbed in a aftermarket cooler to that location?

    Another towing question

    From what I have read, my new to me 2010 XLT Expy EL should have the heavy duty tow package because it has the 7-pin connector, as well as the 4-pin connector. However, I'll be darned if I can find the tranny cooler, that is supposed to be 5 row, or 7 row, or however many rows that no one can...

    Definitive headlight answer

    I had 6k HID in my 03, also had an occasional ballast issue. I was just thinking of the new LED, because they use so little power. But I just don't want the electrical issues if there are any. At least with the HID, I know they drain plenty of power not to confuse the Canbus

    Definitive headlight answer

    Well, I guess my question is, does anyone with a 3rd gen have LED headlight bulbs installed? Or HID's? If so, any issues with the CanBUS?

    Definitive headlight answer

    I just recently upgraded from my 2003 Expy to a 2010 EL. I had HID in the 2003, and miss the lights. I'm torn between LED or HID. The downside to the HID's was that even with the direct battery relay harness, they still flickered a bit. In regards to the H13 bulbs in his vehicle, are these...

    Electric brakes

    Good evening guys and gals. I need some advice/suggestions/info on my 03 Expy XLT 4x4. I do have the towing package, (hitch, 2 plugs, etc.) I recently became President of a large soccer club in my city, and we have a 20' enclosed trailer for our equipment, golf carts, etc. I had to move the...

    rear glass won't open

    Hi everyone! I've trolled around for awhile, but now I've had my first issue in 3 years. The battery was completely dead on the 2003 Expy. I also noticed yesterday the rear wiper doesn't work, and rear glass button doesn't pop the glass. Checked fuses-all ok. After some research-I found...

    unlock help

    Sorry, no idea what you're saying. I have tapped the wire in the drivers kick panel, behind emergency brake, just before it goes through the wall to the door. The remote start does have a setting to 1 pulse or 2 pulse when unlocking, I tried both, but nothing.

    unlock help

    Hi all! I'm a new Ford owner and loving it! However, I'm having a dandy of a problem learning all there is to know about the electronics of this beast. I was a nice husband and installed a remote start on the Expy. All is fine, but when I try to unlock the doors with the aftermarket keyfob...
