    Do these light up?

    2005exp, Yeah, I'm doing the same today...headlight switch, 4x4 switch and maybe doorlock switches. When I bought my Volvo V90 lights in several switches were out, plus all but one bulb in the stereo hu. Thanks to forums like this one, I was able to learn which bulb numbers to get and how to...

    Stereo amp connected to delay relay?

    Yep. Number 2 is what I'm shooting for. It seems that the amp turn-on is just over 9, almost 10 volts. Installing that little regulator reduces it down to 5 volts and BAZINGA! No more POP! BTW, I had set the gain to low...#1; Started getting the pop when I swapped the OE stereo with a JVC...

    Do these light up?

    Yes, they are definitely 74's, and trust me, those little buggers were a tight fit. I used long-nose pliers because they were handy....I was very careful not to break the bulbs. Maybe wearing nitrile exam gloves or something to give your fingers a little "gription." Or just carefully use...

    Do these light up?

    Oh, hey....the instrument cluster lights are #74! They're like a miniature version of 194. The same ones as in my Volvo 240's and V90...and prolly lots of other vehicles. I just used my last ones in my cluster last weekend. Found them now at 10 for $8.99 on Ye Olde Bay..... 74 Sylvania Bulb...

    Do these light up?

    Uhm, yeah the window switches in my 05 EB light up. I'm pretty sure that the door lock switches are supposed to be illuminated along with the window switches on each door. Most of mine are not working, along with a few on the dash...headlight switch, 4x4 switch. I took care of several instrument...

    Stereo amp connected to delay relay?

    I had this same issue a couple of years ago with a JVC head unit in my 2003 Sport Trac...the sub would "pop" when everything powered on. It seems to be a voltage supply issue from the remote "switch on" wire of the HU. It is solved by using a $2 fixed voltage regulator from Radio Shack on...

    Jack stand placement when doing brakes

    Yeah, Andy I saw that too, after the fact, when I was looking up lug nut torque... I sure used to lift my Datsuns and Chevelles and Toyotas with the diff back when I was still in school and "young-n-stoopid." Plus I didn't have any owners manual for those vehicles ;o) No, seriously, I get it...

    Jack stand placement when doing brakes

    Just finished the rear brakes on my 05 EB just about 20 minutes ago..... Don't know if this is right or acceptable or safe, but everything still runs and functions properly....ten inch 4x4 and HF floor jack on the rear differential got it high enough to use jack stands @ the arrow cutouts...

    Photos of Trailer(s) that you tow with your Expedition

    Passport Ultra Lite 280BH Pulled this Keystone Ultra Lite 280BH to Philpott Lake, Virginia....Salthouse Branch CG, about 140 miles. Weighs 4500 dry and we had it at about 5800 or so... With the WDH it only settled about 1-1/2" in the rear; front stayed "level." Did not use OD in the hills, but...

    is this transmission cooler or something else ?

    Tow/Haul button... I had a 2003 Silverado LT 1500HD that we bought new. It was an 8600 GVW and had the "Tow/Haul" feature with a button on the shifter. Using the Tow/Haul not only locked out overdrive but also altered the shifting characteristics of the transmission by holding gears longer...

    is this transmission cooler or something else ?

    Something else..... You may not have a towing package at all. Do you have an OE "four-way flat" trailer connector? I believe that you will find that unit in the photo to be in the "something else" department. I just went through this last week on our 05 EB. That cooler in the your photo is not...

    Pictures of My 05 Expedition with King Ranch Wheels

    When I read the subject line of your TPM thread I thought of big stoopid chrome wheels and went "Bleghhhh!" That was before I saw this thread and that they are OEM wheels...... DANG they look GREAT! Makes it look like a whole different truck. Two things that can completely change the look...

    05 EB door lock swithches

    Got no response in "Electrical" so thought maybe....... here? My Expy is an 05 EB.... Wondering if the door lock switches are supposed to be illuminated. My 03 Sport Trac had lighted door lock switches that stayed lit for a loooonnng time after the ignition was turned off. They would light...

    Window Label Info From Ford

    Spesaking of puddle lights....I put super-bright LED's in all my interior lights and the mirror puddle lights. Soon I hope to add LED spot lights to the under-edge of the door panels or maybe the running boards to come on with the interior lights when a door opens. These are the lights... 2X...

    Window Label Info From Ford

    Andy, My original window sticker has the exact same wording. I interpreted it that my truck has dual mirrors that fold, are heated, and are power adjustable. The "fold" feature is manual. What we wish we had is what was on my 03 1500HD window sticker: "L/R PWR FOLD/HEATE SIDEVIEW...

    05 EB....My third Ford....

    Bought our 05 EB a tad over a month ago. I went from an 03 1500HD Silverado to an 03 Sport Trac XLT 4X4. Great for a small truck, was what we needed at the time. Now we needed more interior cargo capacity. I grew up in a GM family and always had Chevys, Oldmobiles, Buicks, a smattering of...
