    Rear Washer Fluid Line

    No. There's no solenoid involved. The pump spins one way for front washers, and the other way for rear washer. Look at the washer pump in the reservoir, that's where both hoses connect. .

    VVT Solenoids location?

    Probably hearing the PCM relay in the fusebox there at the passenger kick panel. That thing flips out when the fuel pump relay is failing. Unless you could hear the AC clutch relay, but it's in a box behind the left headlight. Turn off your AC and see if you still hear a relay.

    Replace ECM

    I would not recommend a junkyard PCM. Have you tried swapping the PCM relay with one of the others at the top of the fusebox, just to test the relay. The PCM relay is the top right relay. What is the Expy doing, or not doing ? A new programmed PCM is around $200 from Flagship One. 2004 Ford...

    Engine noise

    Usually have to remove the pulley, then the pump to have easier access to those bolts on that side. I've done it both ways, and find that removing the P/S pulley and pump is easier. You can get a P/S pulley pulling kit at Harbor Freight if you have one nearby. Or Amazon. If you're gonna remove...

    Dipstick mod?

    You can replace the stock steel trans pan with an aftermarket PML aluminum deep pan, and it'll have a drain plug in it, and gives you extra fluid capacity to help cool the tranny. Ford 6R80 PML Aluminum Deep Trans Pan .

    Rear Washer Fluid Line

    Yeah, get a hand held vacuum pump or large syringe and try to suck water at the spray nozzle. Using compressed air, you risk blowing the line apart at any connection points. If you can pull washer fluid through with a vacuum, and your front washer works (meaning the pump is good), you probably...

    Location of main HVAC vacuum line in cabin? 2003 Expy XLT with manual AC controls

    Kep that's the control solenoid out of my '03 EB with EATC ( electronic control head unit ...). I don't know why they would say it was only for the Navigator. Best thing to do is pull yours out and look at it and check the p/n on it. But it should be the same. EATC control solenoid for Gen2...

    Power door lock issue on 2004 Ford Expedition

    Does the keypad still unlock the driver's door ? If not, it kind of points to a problem with the vehicle security module ( located above the fusebox...). Power Doorlock Wiring Diagram for 2004 Expy .

    HIDs? Or quit complaining about brightness?

    LED bulb beam patterns just suck, and blind oncoming traffic. HIDs have a more halogen like beam pattern, and if you get them in the 4000 temperature range they have a beam pattern and color very similar to the original halogens, only stronger throw. You won't be getting flashed constantly...

    Excessive Crank and smell of fuel.

    It's all part of the fuel pump assembly now. But yes, cycle the key a few times between off and on ( not crank ) before trying to actually start it. If it starts right up you'll need to replace the fuel pump assembly to fix it. Fuel Pumps at Rock Auto .

    Do you have a laptop? You can use the ForScan app to program the key(s) to the ECU yourself. Just delete all keys the ECU currently has stored and start from scratch with whatever key you have cut to the ignition now. ForScan App Download Link .

    Differential Fluid

    The heavier 75w-140 gear oil was recommended for customer complaints of whining / humming from the differential when the "fuel efficient" 75w-90 was used from the factory. There was a TSB out for it. Gear Oil Upgrade TSB 05-23-3 for Fords .

    Radiator or transmission line?

    Yeah, it's been fine for a couple of years now. The paperwork inside the box was all Spectra paperwork, so I guess that's what they're selling under their name brand now. .

    Radiator or transmission line?

    Should be a 36mm wrench. I have an air chisel wrench set for the job. But that's probably overkill....LOL Air Chisel Wrench Set on Amazon

    99 xlt 4.6 4x4 transmission wire harness.

    Have you gotten under there and looked ? Sounds like an animal chewed through it or it got damaged on an exhaust pipe. If you want a whole harness you're gonna have to scavenge some from a scrapyard. .

    99 xlt 4.6 4x4 transmission wire harness.

    Is it just in the pigtail area of the harness ? Your best bet is just a new pigtail assembly off eBay and do the harness repair yourself. Re-wrap the harness with electrical tape when you're done. Ford 4R70w Pigtail Harness Repair Kit on eBay .

    Radiator or transmission line?

    Yeah, I would never risk my engine and tranny to a junkyard radiator. If that internal tranny cooler goes, so goes your trans .... You can order one off Amazon and have it in 2 days. Or if you have an AutoZone nearby they stock 'em. .

    Vacuum leak

    That's the intake manifold. You'll probably end up pulling it off and epoxying the tube, unless you want to replace the intake manifold.

    Vacuum leak

    I would just get the whole tree assembly. The age of the assembly makes everything brittle and potential leak spots. Motorcraft OEM Vacuum Tree for 2003 5.4L Dorman 46831 Vacuum Tree Assembly on Amazon Ford 5.4 2V Vacuum Tree Assembly on Amazon .

    Window Motor

    Does your XLT have Express Up ( Auto Up ) feature ? That would be 8 pin. No Express Up feature would be 2 pin.
