    No brake pedal 1997 expedition

    The line from abs to flex line to caliper also broke when trying to loosed. I could tell it would, just by the rust. So the question is how do i bleed abs unit, or does it need it. I want to do it at home on the cheap side. Any ideas? Thanks so much!

    No brake pedal 1997 expedition

    Ya, I think a lot of the lines need replacing. I am going to go out and see if in can disconnect this broken line without breaking the one it’s connected too, because it looks as though it’s ready to rust away. And just to make matters worse, this break line broke the very day daughter called...

    No brake pedal 1997 expedition

    Hi all, well I lost brakes and discovered left front rubber brake line at caliper broke completely, so that was the problem. But shouldn’t the proportioning valve have isolated the front and would still have rear brakes?. But I have nothing? So when I replace that line and go to bleed, will it...

    Vacuum lines to selonoids

    Hi, I am trying to repair the vacuum lines from the 2 solenoids on the firewall to the front differential. The pink one is just brittle and I need to replace most of it, just too many leaks. But can’t find the small lines at parts store? Am I missing something? For newer trucks you can buy a...

    4wd on but switch is off?

    So i have a vacuum question. There is vacuum at the selonoids on the firewall, but its not much. What’s a good way to know if there is enough to move the diagram at the differential. Is there a simple way to know without a vacuum tester? It’s very light in my opinion.

    4wd on but switch is off?

    Thanks, I think it’s in the vacuum lines. Does any one know where to get the rubber vacuum connectors, like the ones used on the selenoids on the firewall that connect to the air box behind battery. I think i can get vacuum lines at a parts store. Thanks

    4wd on but switch is off?

    Hi, for some reason my 97 4wd turned itself on, but switch is in off position. I jacked up front, vacuum lines are attached to actuator at front differential and at actuator on firewall, not that that is relevant information? So with front off ground, I turn one wheel and other turns in opposite...

    Ok, so now that I have determined it’s #14 fuse9(interior lights and battery saver relay) is how it is listed in an online search, how to proceed? I have checked all switches and things like glove box light, courtesy mirror lights. Impossible to know which wiring maybe causing? I had multi...

    Running board lights

    Ya, there’re just hanging there. Neither side work and they are supplied separately. Obviously could be just bulbs, so I’ll fix wires and see if I can get them working again. but when do the running bd lights work. When doors are unlocked, when doors are opened, when headlight switch is on?? It...

But first i wanted to establish whether i had a draw. I have good battery, disconnected neg and with multimeter on DCamp, connected...

    I want to find what’s drawing down my battery, but i need to make sure the dome light switch is off when door is open to check fuses, but it dosn’t have a nice simple button on door frame like in the old days. I think the switch is in the door. How can i simple disengage so i can have the door...

    Downstream o2 sensor connector

    Thanks guys, but this o2 sensor I mentioned is the back(after the cat converter), at tail end of transmission. That’s why I said I wrapped my arms around transmission to reach connection on top. So still hoping someone out their has dealt with this one?

    Downstream o2 sensor connector

    Boy, what job just to get to the connector. My arms are wrapped around transmission. The sensor and connector are bad. Corrosion in male and female ends. Will I be able to get harness loose enough to bring connector closer to cut and replace. Any feedback would be appreciated. 1997 expedition...

    No power

    No power

    Thanks, I did clean all connections at starter, gr, battery. Battery was at bout 13 v when I tried was right after charge. Neg cable could probably use replacing. But still curios why everything was fine until I took out battery. Maybe it was right on the verge of failing? I have multi meter...

    No power

    Hi all, I am new to the site. I had no trouble starting my 97 expedition until I took battery out to excess the vacuum boxes to check for leaks. So when I put everything back together, I turn key and got big click and nothing. Power shut down. Sounded like it wound if I had bad connection. I...
