    Lower Radiator Hose Removal

    Late update Turned out that middle piece is a connector. I was able to twist off the band with pliers and with some force I got the hose off. I did end up using the screw hose clamps, since the band wasn't going back on. Thanks for your help stamp! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Dome lights not turning on when either passenger door is opened

    If the wiring for each door is separate, is it just a coincidence that both front and rear passenger side doors are giving me the same problem?

    Dome lights not turning on when either passenger door is opened

    Good idea! I'll give this a try on the weekend when I'm back in town. Dome lights were working for me a few months ago though. Don't know if that matters or not with what you're suggesting. I could try to make sense of wiring diagrams if not too complicated.

    Dome lights not turning on when either passenger door is opened

    Anyone know if there is a plug in the headliner that detects if the doors are ajar? I would hate to drop the headliner again and it be something else. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Dome lights not turning on when either passenger door is opened

    Nope. It's actually acting as if the doors are closed when they are opened. Pretty much the opposite of the common door ajar switch issue.

    Dome lights not turning on when either passenger door is opened

    Hi- the dome lights on my 03 4.6 aren't turning on when the front or rear passenger doors are opened. They come on with both driver side doors and lift gate though. Not sure what's causing it. Some back story: I replaced the door ajar switched in both doors when I purchased the vehicle a few...

    Lower Radiator Hose Removal

    Thanks for the tip! I don't think I could fit the hose around the metal part though since its wider. The middle of the metal connector is what the retaining clip goes on, so I can't cut the outer part of the connector off. After some searching, the complete hose from radiator to engine with...

    Lower Radiator Hose Removal

    Hi, I noticed my lower radiator hose is cracked where it connects from the connector to the engine when I was changing the oil the other day. I purchased the hose, but I'm not seeing how to remove the hose from the connector. I've attached a pic. Does anyone know how to remove? I tried...

    Coolant leak

    Thanks for the tip! Is it 5.25 gallons of Premium Gold or is it 50/50 with water?

    Coolant leak

    Since it looks like it's coming out of the weep hole, I'm just going to go ahead and replace the pump. Does anyone know how much coolant to put back in? Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk

    Coolant leak

    I started getting some belt sqeaking the other day on the highway on my 03 4.6 EB. There was a bit of a burning smell when I got home. I left the car parked until I could take a look at it. When I checked it last night there was no coolant in the reservoir. As soon as I added some distilled...

    Compass module on mirror

    No rear view mirrors at the pick n pull you can grab? A flathead on the mounting bracket and a small wack with a hammer should release it. When I bought mine the mirror was sitting in the center console. I used 3M rearview mirror adhesive and it worked perfectly. Make sure to follow...

    Roof Rust

    I saw it on Amazon for over $50 for 200ml. Not sure of what a body shop will charge, but just getting the roof panel I think is over $500. I actually just repaired one of the 6 grooves today. I used an angle grinder and cutoff the rusted area (about 4 inches around). I then put the 3M bondo...

    Rear Passenger window is grinding ('03 EB 2WD)

    Just the cable can be replaced. I did both rear windows recently that had the same problem. Remove the 3 screws from the motor and you can access the cables. I used needle nose pliers to remove the cables from the track pulleys on the top and bottom. Cables should be just a few bucks at the...

    Roof Rust

    I was thinking of using 3M panel adhesive, but it's pricey. I might give JB Weld a try. The rest of the roof has no issues. Just the front. Thanks!
