    Brake light switch fuse?

    My problem started a about a year ago. The problem was my brake lights would sometimes not work. So I replaced the brake light switch on the brake pedal. Fast forward to about a week ago. I started to notice that the brake lights would only come on with the slightest brake pedal pressure...

    Transmission will NOT stop leaking.

    I have a near mint condition 1997 Expedition XLT 5.4L with just over 100K miles. Here is my issue, my transmission pan will NOT stop leaking. I just came in from the garage and sure enough, there is a quart of transmission fluid on the garage's floor. This is either the fourth or fifth time...

    It's time for her to be set out to rest :(

    I was hoping for a few more years out of my 2000 but the time has come to total her. She has a severe coolant leak out of the intake manifold, needs rear brakes, and the final killer is all the rust. The under body rust is beyond repair. The gas tank straps are pretty much gone, radiator is...

    It took 20 years but...

    My 97 Expedition hit 97,000 miles today. Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of her odometer rolling over. I'm hoping she'll last another 97,000 miles. My 2000 Expedition is just shy of 210,000 miles.

    No heat!

    I purchased a 1997 5.4 Expedition back in May. She only has 95,000 miles on her and zero rust. Well, I live in Iowa and it's getting cool at night so I tried the heat. The fan is blowing normal but there is no warmth at all. The vent and A/C work great, just no heat. Since this was a...
