    '07 front pass. power seat with very specific motor problem.

    Howdy all, My wife's 07 Limited Expi has it's newest issue: The passenger power seat works in all directions except forward/back. Lumbar, up/down, tilt up/down, seat cooling/heating, side airbag are all ok otherwise. Pulled the seat out, removed the rail assy, removed the horizontal motor for...

    seat memory and engine fan noise questions.

    ^^^Yes, I usually use the remote to lock/unlock. The seat and mirrors maintain their programmed position for a period of time, then randomly start moving to oddball positions on unlock. I can also press the button on the side of the driver's seat or enter the corresponding code on the door...

    seat memory and engine fan noise questions.

    Our 07 Limited has a tough time keeping seat and mirror settings in memory. They work fine for a week or so, then next unlock the seat or mirrors move to waaay off positions. A reprogram works for a week or so, and then... The pedals never seem to change, if it matters. This has been an issue...

    Need Help Please Before I Lose My Mind

    Final push to the finish today. It's all back together and driving with no "extra" parts left on the garage floor, haha. It was actually easier than I'd feared to reassemble. Tips: Lube the front pump seal with something that won't later clog in the trans. I used white lithium assembly grease...

    Need Help Please Before I Lose My Mind

    I agree on the pan, I reinstalled it before the trans jack and wood blocks went under it. I also have a new front pump seal to go in prior to the new converter finding it's new home. I know to engage the stator lugs into the front pump and to line it all up before trying to mate the engine and...

    Need Help Please Before I Lose My Mind

    This is in a 20x20 attached garage with 8ft ceilings, so it's cramped and I can't get the truck high enough to lie on a creeper and roll onto my side under the truck. Just hijacking your post, amigo for your encouragement and to shoot some pointers your way.

    Need Help Please Before I Lose My Mind

    The trans is separated and the old converter is draining in a pan for core return. I compared all the flexplate to converter studs and they all seem equally spaced, so no unique orientation as far as I could tell. What helped me get to this point was pulling both sides of the exhaust downpipes...

    Need Help Please Before I Lose My Mind

    I decided to dive into my own converter R&R on my 07 this morning. I've got the driveshaft down, the sway bar down, the shifter off of the trans and am now looking at the trans cooler lines and the various things clipped to the upper trans case. Gonna drop the exhaust to get more reach at the...

    Ambient air temp sensor location 07 Expy

    Geez, I looked for an hour before posting (no joke, an hour for something this simple) posted and then thought more on it. It seemed to be most inaccurate when warmed up, so I wondered if it was inside the engine compartment somehow...Pulled the battery aside an inch and shined my light right on...

    Ambient air temp sensor location 07 Expy

    Color me foolish, but I'm just not finding it's location. Lots of google image searches show me the location on the pickups, on Exploders, on Mercs, etc and I even have the new sensor in hand. I've read where to look, and I'm just not finding it. I simply can't put eyes on this very simple thing...

    Planning on replacing the torque converter on my 07

    Because there's not much to be done, 90% of the work is in making room to remove and replace the converter and front pump seal which can be done under the truck. I posted this from work, and in my mind's eye, the exhaust or sway bar, etc may be in the way. If that's not the case, then yes, I'll...

    Planning on replacing the torque converter on my 07

    My wife's 07 Expy 2wd has had the lockup shudder return after a hiatus. Did all new COP's and plugs after a trans pan drop with fluid change and Shudder Fix additive which did an amazing job of killing the shudder, but as expected it's back. I now plan on just scooting the trans back from the...

    Fan noise from heated seats?

    Not the cabin filters, the actual seat fan has it's own filter.

    How to adjust brake/shifter interlock?

    Yep, the wife came home from work so I goofed with the truck a bit and found the brake switch (which looked properly adjusted by my quick check) and could hear the solenoid clicking repeatedly as I quickly tapped the brakes a few dozen times...worked every time slick as could be of course. No...
