    Engine cut out engine light flashing

    In my case it was absolutely the CEL.

    Engine cut out engine light flashing

    I have experienced this twice with my ’09 (95k miles). The incidents were approximately one year apart. Both times I had been towing my 7k lb. travel trailer. Both times only lasted a few seconds and did not leave any stored fault code. Also, both times the incidents were followed within a...

    Hmmm...What is this connector / harness for?

    Yes, it is the port for the EBC.

    Relay?

    Obviously not much interest, but I figure I'll update. It was the #45 fuse - which makes perfect sense considering the damage to the wiring harness. What doesn't make sense (to me anyway) is why I was seeing any voltage at all with the bad fuse in place.

    Relay?

    So, I had a bit of a mishap that ended with severe damage to the 7-way cable on my travel trailer. I installed a new one only to find that while I have running lights and trailer brakes, neither left nor right turn signals/brake lights are working. Checking the voltage at the factory connector...

    Rear window switch access

    What is the trick to getting the rear power window switches out of the door panel? I think the previous owner may have disconnected the wires. I don't see any screws, and I don't want to pry too hard, as it doesn't seem to be the heartiest of plastic. Thank you!

    Low-RPM stumble

    Yes, 3 valve 5.4l. Not the news I was hoping for, but thanks for the input. Any other symptoms that you noticed? I didn't mention it in the original post, but it has just under 90,000 miles on it right now.

    Low-RPM stumble

    My '09 seems to be developing a low-RPM miss/stumble. Comes on during times of light load and little, if any, throttle. It doesn't do this all the time - seems to be more prevalent after it has run for awhile and I notice it mostly when I'm backing into or out of a parking space. When it is...

    Auxiliary audio input

    Sorry, 2009

    Auxiliary audio input

    Is there any simple way to attach an auxiliary input cord directly to the factory radio? The radio has aux capability but since it is the SSV, it is lacking the factory console that would normally house the input. Was hoping someone here might know before I go ahead and tear the head unit out...

    Console for former government 3rd Gens?

    Don't know. Don't particularly care. They're just the prices I was seeing. Regardless, I'm very happy with my $12 solution and just thought I'd put it out there to let folks know it is a viable option.

    Console for former government 3rd Gens?

    Honestly, I don't think they're worth that much, but that's what they're asking for them.

    Console for former government 3rd Gens?

    As I understand it, the consoles are interchangeable, so long as you find a column-shift F150. the junkyard I went to did not have any, so I went with the Gen2 Expy console. Sorry, but I don't have an answer for you on the seats.

    Speed Bleeders?

    Oh, I'm well versed in the 2-person method. My wife has become quite skilled in pedal-pushing over the years :)

    Console for former government 3rd Gens?

    I just did this exact thing. The drawback with using a Gen 3 console is that you need to figure out something to do with hole left after you remove the floor shifter. Another problem is that the used Gen 3 consoles are ridiculously expensive ($300+). The solution I used was to install a Gen 2...
