    Building a 2006 5.4 what would you do?

    Hey all. Thanks for the comments. This was asked while it was in the shop waiting in line for a rebuild. I’d take on the project myself if time but this is my wife’s vehicle and hauls around kids in car seats so needed to get it done. Rebuilding by a local engine rebuild shop. R&R completely...

    Sunroof Drains

    Ok, just trying to figure out if there is an easy way to get to the drains now to clear them. I saw one post a while back that someone had removed the headliner, but that was also to fix water rolling over the tray edge. Since it isn't leaking at the sunroof, but at the very back of the vehicle...

    Sunroof Drains

    Where are the rear drains exiting at? On our 06 there is water pouring in randomly by the rear of the side windows and I thought it may have been the rear vent window not seating all the way, but it appears to be coming from somewhere behind the plastic above that area. Kinda guess it could be...

    Front power seat switch

    Thanks, that does help a little. I do have forscan now to look at it, but the test for that all runs ok. (Only shows an up/down mirror sensor fault, not surprising with how erratic the mirror adjustments and not total folding action is). Trying to figure out if any of the live data modes show a...

    Power folding mirrors

    Not much different, but from the factory service manual: Exterior Mirror Motor Synchronization NOTE: This procedure must be performed any time the power folding mirrors are manually folded IN or OUT, or if the postion of the mirror case has been moved without using the mirror control switch...

    Power folding mirrors

    Ok, so below is what the owner manual says. I'm never hearing the click (unless I manually click them back to near the normal operating position). So, am I doing something wrong? Should I try this from the folded position? It almost seems as if the motor is not strong enough to get the click to...

    Audio Settings not working

    So, I've tried to run the self test. I can get the speaker walk-around test to happen, and all reports fine, but not any of the other 5 options listed below seem to work. I'm trying to enter from the walk-around test mode, but the preset buttons start none of the actions. Maybe that alone...

    Ok, current Headlight/Foglight bulb replacement

    Lights look nice. What bulbs are in the fog lights? Or are those not replaced yet, and you are waiting for new housings? Since I have no idea what the reflector is like for the mirror turn signals, what type of bulb did you put in there? That looks a ton brighter than what (I assume factory...

    Power folding mirrors

    Ok, will try it again a few times. There is a loud pop, as you manually move them back to the "near normal position" so will see if it does anything different. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Power folding mirrors

    Tried the relearn, maybe I'm doing it wrong. Fold in, or folding back doesn't seem to relearn anything. Honestly sounds like the motor has a flat spot and slows and stops. But the click into place does not set it correct. Is that what the relearn is supposed to fix? Sent from my iPad using...

    Power folding mirrors

    Ok, so have noticed this seems to get worse. The seat memory moves the mirror in each setting, and the mirror is way off, and requires a reset often. It seems the "parked" position of the mirror case is incorrect. It doesn't line up with the rest of the mount. Seems lout of line a good 1/2" or...

    Ok, current Headlight/Foglight bulb replacement

    So, there are quite a few threads in here over the years, and for different Gen, on replacement lights. Be it a housing replacement or bulbs. In any case, I think the first thing I'm wanting to try is the fog light bulb replacement on our 06 Limited. Partly because the lens is nice and clean on...

    Ok, what is lighted inside a 2006?

    Great. Used low quality led if they have gone bad in the 12 years since new. Any idea on how to replace either of them? Or is it better to just replace the part. I've seen door window switch thingys for fairly cheap, but if cheap led again, don't want them to go out again, since the rest of the...

    Ok, what is lighted inside a 2006?

    I've gone through as many posts as I can here trying to find out what bulbs are not currently working on our 2006 Limited. It would seem to me, that if there is supposed to be lighting, it is missing in these area: 1. Door window switches 2. Overhead selector for the rear climate controls (the...
