    98-02 Expedition and Navigator check suspension light diy solve

    I have black duct tape. You can sand it lightly to achieve a matte finish that matches the instrument cluster nicely

    98-02 Expedition and Navigator check suspension light diy solve

    Sorry about dredging up this old thread. I purchased this 2001 Nav that has the coil springs and the chk suspension light on. I believe I see the connector under the dash access panel, however , there is a white plug and a black plug, both of which plug into the same white socket side by side. I...

    Automatic transmission isn't

    I think it’s sort of fixed. Did a complete fluid change, removed accumulator valve, flushed it with brake cleaner, flushed with trans fluid twice and drained in case of residual cleaner, refilled it and added Lucas Trans Fix for good measure. It is shifting automatically but RPMs and speeds are...

    Automatic transmission isn't

    Virtually no debris in pan. The magnet was completely covered, however, with a 1/16" layer of goo. I was surprised that the fluid was pinkish on dipstick but very black after draining. I am opting for replacing all 17 quarts rather than just the transmission.

    Automatic transmission isn't

    Thank You WCAWI. Took a look at Transgo. Looks intimidating with all the springs to take apart. Can it be done without taking apart - I'm thinking in place and brake cleaner, remove it and brake cleaner without taking apart? All data shows

    Automatic transmission isn't

    Interesting. I was going to replace that as it is next on the to do list, not to correct this but because it' s rusty. More info - I just replaced all brake lines 2 weeks before this issue reared it's ugly head. One line was so badly rusted It crumbled with light pressure from my little finger

    Automatic transmission isn't

    Thanks for your reply, Caro. It has 4 gears but you only shift thru 3. The trans range sensor seems like a logical place to start. What is a PCM? I have to drop the pan. Is there anything I should check before re-installing the pan?

    Automatic transmission isn't

    I have a 98 XPY with 5.4L 4 wheel drive. One morning, transmission did not shift automatically to 2nd gear at the normal RPM. Each day thereafter the shift point was at increasingly higher RPMs until I had to shift it manually. It has gotten progressively worse to the point that I have to shift...

    Parking Brake Warning Light

    Pennies from Heaven Thanks for your reply, Sir. It's a 98. The same light is used for both brake and parking brake warning lights. The switch is good but the plunger wore a hole into the rubber stop that's attached to the pedal's arm. The specialty diagnostic tool was 4 pennies taped to the...

    Parking Brake Warning Light

    New to Expeditions and to the forum. Thanks to all that post here. My parking brake warning light does not come on when parking brake is set. Brake warning light does go on/off at startup. Is a single bulb used for brake warning and parking brake warning lights? If not, where is the parking...
