    DVD Player Audio out to speakers

    Rob, is there a headphone icon displayed on the radio dsiplay? My guess is that its currently set in "dual mode" = rear listens to headphones and front listens to speakers. Have you tried pressing the 2 & 4 buttons at the same time to activate / deactivate the dual play mode ? Have you tried...

    Key won't work after new remote start installed

    Sounds like the remote start PATS interface is the problem. Is it the old school kind where they used an actual key stuffed under the dash, or is it an aftermarket interface that maybe needs to be reprogrammed, or did they use the Ford PATS interface ring around the ignition ?? Do you have the...

    Installing new right side power folding mirror

    I highly doubt you will find an aftermarket power fold mirror anywhere. So you may have to suck it up and buy it from the dealer. Tasca has some of the best prices online. To replace it is not hard at all but the interior door panel has to come off. There are no "christmas trees" on these...

    Radio/Nav swap

    Seeing as the NAV units were used primarily in the higher end versions they are usually programmed for the Audiophile ( subwoofer ) setup. You would have to ask the programmer if they can program it without that option otherwise if you dont have the subwoofer you wont have any low end...

    CV Axle Seal leaking

    It's actually pretty common. I had this happen on mine too. Luckily it was covered under ESP warranty. I do know they had to pull everything off that side ( wheel, brakes, axle etc.. ) so I would imagine the labor is the killer. I would get a price from a local shop and compare. p.s. Mine...

    Radio/Nav swap

    What level Expy do you have ? Limited, Eddie Bauer, XLT ? Does it have the subwoofer ? The factory NAV unit should swap right in plug n play as long as its programmed to the truck ( you do need the GPS antenna too ) I did this on my 06 F150 without issue. Matt

    Air Conditioned Seats (Heat also)

    If it's still under warranty bring it in. Had this happen to mine and they had to replace a ground wire at the control module under the passenger seat. Matt

    2009 Brake Controller

    Starting in 2013 Ford put an OEM brake controller standard in the Limiteds and King Ranch and optional in other versions. I haven't been able to find any info as to whether it can be retrofitted to older models though. Matt

    Power running board is shot

    So is it the motor ??? Or is it the actual running board ?? I think TascaFord sells the left side motor for only $295. Unless the bracket assembly is totally FUBAR I would look into just replacing the motor. Part #5 2008 FORD EXPEDITION Parts - TascaParts.com Matt

    Window Regulator Issue

    First off the shop that replaced the regulator should have reset the auto-up feature. Second, the link posted by toms89 is not the correct way to reset it per the manual. There are 2 procedures you should to try, De-Initializing and then Initializing. De-Initializing 1. Start with...

    Memory Seat Issue

    2007 and 2008 had no audible confirmation that the memory positions are set. Sounds like you have a problem with the seat track. The seats should be adjustable from all the way forward to all the way back non stop. Matt

    Paint Bubbling, We need EVERYONE to register a complaint! READ FORDS RESPONSE!!!

    I don't know if I buy into the excuse that the trim is rubbing. I have a couple of small bubbles and none are even near the trim piece. I firmly believe the paint problem is caused by bad prep and contamination on the panel prior to painting. Ford is well aware of this issue already and has...

    7 Pin connector problem??

    I dont know if its any different on a 2012 than a 2008 but the factory tow package came with a wiring harness ( for brake controller ) and a relay and fuse that had to be installed in the fuse panel ( in engine bay ) for trailer tow battery charge. Did you or previous owner install this...

    Side view mirrors

    Tony I think he's talking about the one that has a small convex blind spot mirror in the upper corner of each mirror like the 2013 models have. Matt

    Towing Mirrors

    They are, but Ford changed the F150 in 2004 and after that the mirrors / doors do not interchange with the Expeditions at all. If you find good tow mirrors for old F150 ( prior to 04 ) then you should be all set. Matt

    How to adjust brake/shifter interlock?

    According to the service manual: The brake shift interlock actuator (BSIA) is not serviced individually. If installation of a new BSIA is required, install a new floor shift selector lever assembly. Matt

    Conversation mirror??

    You might want to check back with your source on that. All the info I have seen says the overhead console with the mirror was only available on models with no sunroof ( large console two bins ) If you opted for the sunroof you got the mini-console ( one bin ) which only came with the sunglass...

    Conversation mirror??

    Scuba, I think you wont find one that is an exact fit because I believe the conversation mirror was only available on ones without the sunroof. What I would do is buy one of the ones on ebay and pull the mirror door part off and swap it with the sunglass holder on yours. Matt
