Small window glass in rear passenger door.
I just replaced this window (a neighbor bought his kid a bb gun !). A few details that will help: Rear Door Window Glass —Stationary Removal and Installation Tip: Inner door panel lifts up and off (4 screws, no snaps - don't pull, lift). Door handle cover unsnaps, window switch lifts up and...- yumadoug

Need help inspecting a used transfer case
I just read in a GM forum that with their transfer cases the clutches are preloaded so that resistance is normal. So I guess I'll go with that.- yumadoug

Need help inspecting a used transfer case
Clarification - I'm looking at a used transfer case for a 2003 Expedition A4WD (5.4 Eddie Bauer) and I'm not sure about the electronic internal clutch. Of course, when turning the main front input shaft, the front (drive) output shaft spins in 4H and slower in 4L. But in 2H if I turn the main...- yumadoug

AC compressor relay location
Yeah. But without the compressor turning, the pressure gauge peaks in the red. I need to get that clutch to engage while the engine is running. This may be a risky idea but since 12 volts hard wired to the compressor input connector is the only thing that gets the clutch to engage, what if I...- yumadoug

AC compressor relay location
I don't know. The wiring looks in good condition. Doesn't look like anything rubbed against it and the wire covering is intact. I tested the ambient temperature sensor and the power going to it according to a video I saw. It was getting the 5 volts to it and the ground wire had continuity. And...- yumadoug

AC compressor relay location
Ok, I didn't understand something I saw in a video - I DO have power to the compressor. With the key on and AC switch on but engine off, I get .6 volts. Then with the engine running it peaks at over 14 volts. But this new round of testing is still confusing: 1. Disconnected power connector to...- yumadoug

AC compressor relay location
Oh yeah, I was completely wrong on that one, according to this test procedure. I'll try it again tomorrow. https://youtu.be/8-pXIoTKgL0- yumadoug

AC compressor relay location
Dumb question: the two terminals on the cable connector to the compressor are simply power and ground, right? If something else, like maybe the housing grounded and there are two power connections (clutch and compressor? idk), then my test of power to the compressor was wrong. Would you know?- yumadoug

AC compressor relay location
I'll try that tomorrow. This was weird but may/may not be related: Two days ago when it suddenly started blowing warm air, I shut it off to do something else for a couple hours. When I restarted it, it was blowing cold again but the dash display screen stayed black. After about 30 seconds, much...- yumadoug

AC compressor relay location
Not sure if I should create a new post in another area or continue this one ... I have tried so many things but this is making no sense. First thought the compressor stopped due to low freon. My AC was working great until 2 days ago. Just found out there's no power to the compressor. Tried...- yumadoug

AC compressor relay location
Thanks for the reply! I searched the web for hours and found only one other site with that info, plus 2 additional auxiliary relay boxes! Too bad Ford doesn't include that in the manual. https://www.justanswer.com/ford/hx7v8-two-fuse-boxes-2006-ford-expedition.html Thanks again!- yumadoug

AC compressor relay location
On my 2003 Expedition the interior fuse and relay panel is the same as this video. But the relay box between the coolant reservoir and the intake tube is missing, replaced by the cruise control box. I removed the intake tube and the coolant reservoir and there is nothing underneath or anywhere...- yumadoug

AC compressor relay location
I need help with the location of the ac compressor relay. A pic would be helpful. *** Please don't post a picture of the fuse and relay diagram from the manual. I have that and it only shows a 10 amp fuse but the not the relay. The relay is sold everywhere for this vehicle...- yumadoug
