    98 Exp battery draining down

    Do not connect an OHM meter across your battery you will damage the OHM meter, also if you connect a volt meter you won't see a voltage drop from a parasitic draw. If you are going to find a parasitic draw you need to use an Ammeter in line with the positive post. Leave key out of ignition, DO...

    Have you considered stopping at an auto interior shop if you have one close by? Maybe they can customize your seat profile and/or foam density.

    2022 Expy

    What happens when you get a "blue screen" and nothing works? It's like everything else, one specific tool (knobs, dials, switches) for one function works great. One tool for many functions always compromises every function especially when it breaks and you can't do anything.

    Consumer reports Expedition is trash?

    Like everything today, if it doesn't have all the electronic most people don't want it. That goes for cars, washers, fridges, etc, etc, etc. I have all my major appliances that are 30 years old and while I have replaces a part or two, they have outlasted all the latest and most technologically...

    10 Speed Transmission - Opinions

    I have a 2017 XLT with 6 speed and it has some shift problems since new usually with the 2-3 upshift I think it a programming issue but 2 different dealers service managers say that's the way it should be. 2-3 feels like it slips a lot before before locking into 3rd. I use the tow mode and it...

    Knowledge

    I have a 2017 XLT RWD. Have you done any tuning on yours? I see that you have a 4x4 so some of your parameters should be different than my RWD, but have you done any tuning to your tranny?

    Knowledge

    Will forscan allow me to change settings such as up-shift and down-shift points? Or is it only for reading parameters and sensor status?

    my new auxiliary backup lights

    I don't understand your explanation of how you connected them. So, how do they go on with the factory backup lights. You mentioned a switch so do you have to turn on the new B/U lights with a switch every time you back up? OR do they come on whenever you put the gear selector in reverse?

    Auxiliary Power plug

    Have you tried connecting the charger directly to your battery for 24 hours to see if it will charge up to 13.2 ? That would give you a clue as to whether it's a problem with the charger or something in the wiring from the aux power socket to the battery. If it works directly across the battery...

    Raptor Grille Light Connector?

    The Summit stock number shows the grill with a wire harness/connectors. Since it says the lights are LEDs you can tap into parking or DRL wires. LEDs won't add much electrical load

    Replacement brake pads

    I bought my 2017 Expi new and have 38,000mi on it now. The brakes just don't feel like they have the same stopping power as when they were newer. Maybe upgrading was the wrong term to use. I don't mind changing pads more frequently so I'll check out the organic and metallic pads. Besides the...

    Replacement brake pads

    Does anyone know where there is a comparison between OEM and ANY aftermarket pads and/or rotors? I never tow a trailer but I drive my 2017 Expi like a sports car and I would like to find something with more stopping power without upgrading the calipers.

    Michigan residents - registration renewal cost

    In Florida my 2019 registration for my '17 XLT was a little under $50/yr and in FL we don't pay any other taxes/fees every year like some states.

    2015-2017 Stock Inverter

    Why not use the 12 V power points (cigarette lighter)? I have a 2017 XLT and according to the owners manual it says they are rated for 180 watts. the optional inverter is rated at 150 watts

    Catch Can!

    I don't understand your sentence. Let me ask a different way.....If the turbo is running at boost wouldn't the vacuum be greater on the intake side of the turbo than when the turbo is running below boost?
  22. 1970Maverick

    Catch Can!

    Question 1, is the vacuum at the intake side of the turbo the same as the intake plenum when there is no boost? Question 2, During boost is the vacuum still present at the intake side of the turbo and the intake plenum is pressurized? If the answer to both these questions is yes then why not...

    2017 Expedition OEM LED Tail Lights

    Don't waste your $$$ on LEDs buy the whitest/brightest incandescents (I don't know if some of the hyper white bulbs would be better or not because they tend to put out a blue tinted light)

    2017 Expedition OEM LED Tail Lights

    I tried a few LEDs in one side with the stock incandescents in the other, the stock side was brighter. The reflector for each type of bulb is different by design to make the best use of the filament's or "chip's" position and shape
