    Clicking sound from behind the dash

    Mine is more of a clicking for about 2 seconds but I always leave it on max AC. If I change it i have the noise so I just change the temp if I need heat

    Clicking sound from behind the dash

    My issue is definitely with the diverter door. If I choose anything other than A/C then the clicking is intermittent during use but there always is a clicking when I start the vehicle for a couple seconds. The temperature knob changes the temperature just fine and I did the pull fuse to...

    Clicking sound from behind the dash

    I have the same issue and replacing the blend door actuator solved it temporarily. I opened up my old actuator and none of the gears are stripped. I am thinking about unplugging the actuator to see if the noise stops (luckily the blend door is stuck in the face position and not the defrost or...

    What hitches are you using? Anyone using an EL with an EQ/31ft bunkhouse successfully?

    Sorry, I am not familiar with that. The chain links we are referring to are on our weight distribution hitches.

    What hitches are you using? Anyone using an EL with an EQ/31ft bunkhouse successfully?

    I tow a 29' TT with slide at 5900lbs empty with my 2007 EL and don't seem to have issues. I use the WD hitch from Harbor Freight and I agree...the more chain links you get in the better. When I went from 3 to 4 links it made a world of difference. You also have to set up the height on your...

    4 prong to 7 prong

    I am curious to know where the wire you tapped into goes to. I have a technical manual so maybe I can look up the schematic for that wire.

    4 pin to 7 where is the 12V line?

    If all of the other lights work your running lights should also.

    4 pin to 7 where is the 12V line?

    @adamsdaddy - When I tow my TT my propane tanks keep the fridge cold. The only thing the power wire would help me is if the battery was dead when I am trying to raise/lower it or open/close the slide.

    4 pin to 7 where is the 12V line?

    I would be interested in the information. I have a 2007 EL without the tow package and I also went from the 4 pin to 7 pin harness for towing my travel trailer. I found the 5th wire for the brake controller but never wired up the reverse lights or the 12V power. From what I was able to find...

    Air only blowing from vents (07 Expedition)

    I had/have the same issue with my '07 XLT. Question - when you start the engine do you hear a grinding noise coming from the driver's side of the dash? I do and have replaced the part in the past that fixed the issue for a year or so but it's back. I need to replace it again I guess...very...

    Replaced the plugs - ignition coil (COP) question

    I finally finished replacing the plugs (6 out of 8 broke) on my 2007 Expedition EL XLT with 117k miles and wanted to know what coils you guys recommend? After a little looking Autozone has a Duralast 8 pack for $199.99 with a lifetime warranty and an Accel 8 pack for $250. Is there a specific...

    Some help 2007 EL questions

    I guess I should clarify - when I say struggling I mean there is a lot of downshifting and the RPMs getting above 3000 when I go up an incline. Keeping speed above 60-65 mph is also a struggle and when you are there mine seems to stay in fifth gear. I don't have the towing package so I think...

    Some help 2007 EL questions

    I have a 2007 EL and a 6000lb empty camper and even on fairly flat ground around Houston it struggles to get up small inclines. I am also having what feels to be misfiring when pulling the load. I am currently thinking about upgrading to a diesel Excursion for the extra pulling power...I...

    Should a fairly competent backyard mechanic attempt the dreaded spark plug removal?

    Also, my misfire only happened around the 1500-2000 RPM range when pulling a 6000lb travel trailer

    Should a fairly competent backyard mechanic attempt the dreaded spark plug removal?

    I tried the SeaFoam and carb cleaner but I am 3 for 3 on breaking them (2007 with 110k miles). Make sure you have the Lisle tool and an air compressor with extension wand before starting in. Also, I replaced the coil packs as I went and there was a faulty one which did what you explained...

    How to 'convert' 2014 with standard towing package to have a factory heavy duty towing package

    I have a 2007 (3rd generation) and the adapter I got was: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002Q80GS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. As far as the brake controller there was an empty cable under the dash that I plugged the adapter into and then into the brake controller. The...

    How to 'convert' 2014 with standard towing package to have a factory heavy duty towing package

    The wiring for some of the 7-pin connector is already there...other than the constant 12V and the reverse lights. Also, the wiring for the brake controller is already there too, just buy the brake controller and the adapter made for your vehicle...it's plug and play.

    water in door after heavy rain (07)

    I have an '07 and have the same issue. I found that the drain plug was getting clogged with debris so I ended up removing it. Haven't had the problem since and I live in Houston with 40+ inches of rain per year.

    2012 - Safe to change plugs myself without breaking any plugs

    I have a 2007 and so far I have broken 3 out of 3. I used two tanks with Sea Foam and also did the fluid to break the carbon and loosened a little at a time. I would get the Lisle tool and have it handy because you are going to break some. Just make sure to have an air compressor with a long...

    Front A/C directional issues

    help needed please Are there any updates on this? The clicking is still there and if I select anything other than max A/C it clicks every few seconds. Is there a way to tell if the gears on the door itself are messed up?

    Front A/C directional issues

    actuator clicking noise OK, so I replaced the directional door actuator and now everytime I start the vehicle there is a clicking noise for about a second then it stops. The air flow directional selector now works, but the noise is annoying. When I swapped the actuator it was keyed so I had...
