    AC Performance survey

    Just curious on how these later model Expeditions are performing with the AC. (My 2000 Expedition would deliver a temp in the 30s on the driver door duct) So Far my 2011 XLT with Climate control is putting out about 45 Degrees at the drivers door on a very hot day like in the upper 90s. This...

    Annoying Lights

    Thanks Guys. I just think all these lights remaining on, if only for a few seconds, drains the battery that much more. It does not seem to be in the courtesy light function either. Which I don't use. On my 2007 Mustang GT, it had a similar feature where all the lights came on when you...

    Annoying Lights

    On my 2011 XLT, does anyone know if you can turn off the function where the parking lights come on for a few seconds when you lock or unlock the doors. The owners manual says nothing about it. Thanks.

    CD Changer

    Really disappointed that in 2011 they discontinued the 6 disk changer head unit. Does anyone know if a head unit from a 2010 (6 CD) will interchange with the 2011 ??? Or can a changer be added to the 2011 unit ??? Thanks

    New XLT Shorted Circuit

    Hey Thermo, Problem Fixed !!!!!!! Don't ask me how. This is what I did. I did pull the fuse for all interior lights. (Dome) Fuse (Circuit) would still blow. Identified circuit as Lt Green and Yellow Wire. Removed main Wire Harness with this color wire from fuse box. Fuse did not blow...

    Wheel Paint Color ????

    Well guys, As an answer to my own question, I stopped by my dealer to pick up a locking gas cap for the Expedition and asked about this wheel color. Both the parts dept as well as the paint dept advised that there are no wheel paint codes at Ford. Paint man said they just try to match colors...

    New XLT Shorted Circuit

    Thanks so much thermo, I am going to do my best to try to go thru your method. However I did not find a relay that I could identify which controlled these circuits. When I get a chance I will print out your instructions and give it a try. Noting to loose. And If I can't fix, maybe I can at...

    Any how-to's on ac recharging ? 2000 expy

    I had to add a little R-134 to my 2000 a few years back. Be careful not to add too much. Unlike R-12, R-134 is sensitive to having too much in the system and at that point will start getting warmer instead of colder. If you have trouble getting the system to take refrigerant and you know it...

    New XLT Shorted Circuit

    Thermo, Thanks so much for trying to help. I am not dumb but I am not an electrical expert either. I am not sure I understand how checking the relay will help. Just to review, The circuit in question only has (3) items on it - Glove Box, Visor Lights, and dome lights. The dome lights...

    New XLT Shorted Circuit

    Last night I tested each visor light and the glove box wiring socket and found each had an open circuit. Does not make sense to me but when connecting my meter to each positive and negative in each location my meter showed no short in that line. I certainly thought one of the (4) visor bulb...

    New XLT Shorted Circuit

    I think you are exactly right. I just wonder as complicated as cars and trucks are today whether the short could be somewhere in the truck where you cant get to it. I will try to isolate the circuit myself with the volt meter.

    New XLT Shorted Circuit

    I know I can take my new XLT in under warranty but just wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts. There is one 10amp circuit on my 2011 which powers - Glove box light, Visor mirror lights and individual Dome lights. Fuse was blown when purchase and will instantly blow now. I have removed...
