    Ouch

    Hey Shantheman, You have heard from some people who don't think it's a big deal but there is no way to tell if the wheel IS compromised unless you have Xray vision. I know it's not cheap to replace the wheel and tire but you can't put a price on losing a family member. Consider your run in with...

    Ouch

    Don't take advise from this forum based on your photo. Go to a reliable tire shop and have them check it. Give yourself and family peace of mind even if it means buying a new wheel and tire.

    Lift gate

    I have a 2017 XLT and my fob has a button to unlatch just the glass but you have to push it twice. That button has a symbol that looks like a car trunk with 2x.

    Catch Can!

    Has anyone tried cleaning the intake valves by doing an injector cleaning fluid drip into the intake? A long time ago I had a 1978 porsche 944 and as part of the tune-up my mechanic would open the hood, hang a bottle of injector cleaner and allow it to drip into the intake while the car idled...

    Catch Can!

    Now that I‘m more educated (or confused) after reading this thread, I have more questions. 1) If the purpose of the catch can is to “slow" the flow of dirty air from the PCV to the intake, would it make sense to use a smaller ID hose between the can and intake to reduce the air volume so the...

    I will be adding wire loop 3rd row seats

    I don't have power folding seats so I can't see first hand what you have in the video but after looking at your video maybe you could pull the wire another 1" through the wire tie OR put a piece of thin plastic tube over the rotating bar.

    Bad Battery in 2005 Expedition

    If your terminal is getting hot there is some resistance between the battery post and the terminal on the post(loose bolt, oxidation, etc) OR between the terminal and the wire (bad crimp, oxidation, etc. Either of these could also prevent the alternator from fully charging the battery and...

    Auxiliary power points...amperage?

    What is it that you are trying to plug in? If you get down to the nitty gritty, you have to consider the power factor (PF) of the load you are trying to power. I would assume that Ford was thinking people are going to plug in an electronic device and not a light bulb or heater. Also, keep in...

    Oil Filter Relocation Kit

    Remember that different years use different plugs, covers, filter locations, etc. and I get that everyone has an opinion on the best way to change your oil so take the comments that apply to your specific year and sort out the data then decide. Please don't recommend anything you haven't done...

    What should I use my roof rack for?

    I never used the rack since I got my 2017 XLT so I removed it and plugged the holes. I shoved a small piece of 3/8 round foam insulation(backer rod) into the well nuts to cover the threads, then I filled the space above the threads with a squirt of silicon sealer and smoothed it even with the...

    Oil Filter Relocation Kit

    So you had a Fumoto and went back to the plug? I can remove the nut in a few seconds too, it's the prep ahead of removing the nut and the oil that misses the catch pan that I don't like.

    Oil Filter Relocation Kit

    Can you tell me the Derale p/n or thread size for the adapter that threads onto the engine block? I have a 2017 XLT and I have been doing my own oil changes since the 60s I can't believe how long it takes to change the oil on my Expy. I just installed a Fomoto F107SX drain valve on my last oil...

    How to check water in battery?

    I know I'm repeating some of the comments but, AGMs are sealed and will vent(one way out) if the battery is over charged. They are not made to be "topped off" with anything. If your vehicle charging system repeatedly over charges and vents the pressure(along with gases) eventually you loose...

    SOLVED*Yet another fog light/high beam/parking light wiring question - 1999

    I do NOT have a wiring diagram for 1999. This info is based on common sense 12 volt wiring. You would make the connections at the bulb connectors (not at the switch) that’s the point where 12 volts can be measured when you turn on the parking or high beams. If you try to do this at the light...

    Aftermarket Stereo - No power when freezing - WTF?

    I stumbled across this https://www.fordforumsonline.com/threads/ford-expedition-radio-wire-diagram.3884/ If this is what you need, it looks like the switched power comes directly from fuse, through 2 connectors and into the radio. Hope it can help.

    Aftermarket Stereo - No power when freezing - WTF?

    Have you tried using a heat gun or hair dryer to warm small individual areas inside the Expy or under the hood when you have the problem? It is a weird problem but I was thinking maybe the freezing cold makes one of the connections points contract or shrink in a way that it's breaking the...
