Overhead trip/milage ecu

[northernexp]

I have the overhead console with the compass/temp gauge in my expedition. If I swapped in a overhead ecu with milage and trip info would it work out are there other pieces needed?

Had anyone done this before? The plugs appear to be the same, but before I order one from eBay id like to find out.

Don't know. But it's not very useful.

With a full tank, my distance to empty is always over 400 miles. But around 360 miles, it is at 0 miles to empty.

Does it do anything other than display distance until empty and temp/direction?

I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the ecu, I'll let u guys know if it works for me.

If it doesn't I can always return the ecu so it's not the end of the world.

wiring diagrams

Thank you so much for all three info, stupid question time... I'm guessing u sending over diagrams etc means this is not a plug and play affair for those with an existing digital compass/temp display?

I have a 2001 EB and I picked up a second unit from a U-Pull-It Yard and it was plug and play but I am not sure what yours is in the XLT if it is the same then it should be a simple swap. I sent the wiring diagrams so you can compare the wiring and also check the fuses There are some pinpoint test that you can make and if you need that information I'll try to send it to you Just need your e-mail address Send it in a PM

The wiring diagrams show all that is needed Check your connector to see if all the wires are present

Did your Eddie Bauer originally have the milage ecu or just the compass/temp ecu? And I sent u the pm also thank u so much for all the info

everything on mine was there except the temp isn't working but I have that on my EATC controls for the A/C
