    Engine Studder, No Codes

    Hey all, The old 2000 Expedition (5.4l, AWD, EB Package) has been doing well, till now. I have over 250K miles, am enjoying it and want to keep it going, but I have a problem that has been going on for about 2 months now and it has me stumped. A little history, I have had COP #4 (back...

    L/R Brake Lights not working, Center High Brake light works

    Stamp, New issue came up. Trailer Turn Signal/E-Flashers not working. Can you provide the e-diagrams for that assembly. Pages 95-1 and 95-2 (and any others?). I suspect a fuse, but the owners manual does not list a fuse specifically for the Tow Package Turn Relays (it does for the position...

    P0304, Misfire

    Eddie, Thank you for the reply. 249,000 Miles. There was a bit of oil in the spark plug well at Cyl 1, and more in the spark plug well for Cyl 4 (that is, the spark plug socket was oily when I pulled it out). I was thinking that the next best thing to try was the fuel injector. The wiring...

    P0304, Misfire

    Hey all, Came back from an out of town ski trip this weekend and my 2000 Expedition EB Model (V8-5.4L) was running rough as I came back into town and it turned on the CEL. Felt like a bad cop (last time I had one go bad was about 5 years ago). Scanner showed code P0304 (lucky me, cyl 4...

    2000 Expedition Sticky Ignition Switch

    Does anyone have an idea on how to fix a sticky ignition switch assembly. The cylinder comes out easily and seems to be well lubricated. With the key in, the cylinder rotates easily within the slotted housing assembly seen in the first attached picture. The cylinder has a shaft that drives a...

    L/R Brake Lights not working, Center High Brake light works

    Stamp, Success, After reviewing and marking in green what was working on the electrical diagrams, it was obvious that it was an issue either in the multi-function turn switch or with conductor C253 from the Brake Pedal Switch splice S231 to the multi-function switch connection 511. Working...

    L/R Brake Lights not working, Center High Brake light works

    2000 Expedition, Eddie Bower, 5.4L. Had to haul some stuff to the dump with a trailer that I use occasionally. Now my L/R Brake Lights don't work on the truck, and not to the trailer either. Not shown in any of the manuals, but I believe that there is a factory relay tow connector package...

    Idle Air Control Valve (IAC)

    Update (10-5-19): The replacement IAC failed (sort-of). This time it was just sticky, and it would idle high until the PCM made enough of a change that it reacted (with a fairly sudden change in RPM levels). As it had a lifetime warranty, I went a got a replacement. Removing and replacing...

    2001 EB 5.4 hear 1 click on start attempt but no cranking..new battery

    I had a similar issue in the past with both my Explorer and Expedition. Battery Corrosion had made its way INTO the battery connectors and wiring (not visible from the outside). I had to strip back a little of the insulation to see it. Once I saw the extent, I chopped off the connectors and...

    Idle Air Control Valve (IAC)

    This was easy diagnosis and repair, once I figured out where the IAC on my rig was actually located (2000 EB). Symptoms: Tried to start, fired and immediately shut down. Found I could start if I pressed a little on the gas pedal. No service light or codes being thrown off while it was running...

    Engine just quit running

    OK, now I think I am on to something. Not sure why nobody had a recommendation for me on this one, but I am now throwing a P1450 Code (cannot bleed up pressure in fuel tank). Will start the normal troubleshooting that is recommended by other posts, but the "motor just shutting off" symptom...

    Fog Light Assembly Replacement...difficult?

    Thank you for the info. The link indicates a variety of years for the expedition, but not 2000. What year Expedition did you put them on?

    My 2000 5.4l Eddie Bauer 4x4

    After watching the Odometer blinking for the last four years, I finally was able to pull the cluster and make the repair (In conjunction with new heater core, blend door and blend door actuator). Working well now. I used a video from the F150 forum site (link to you tube) to see which pins...

    Engine just quit running

    I was driving my Expy on a residential street and the engine just stopped running. It has been running well for the last 2 years (previous issue was a COP needed replacing). I stopped, put it in park, turned the key off, then started it again, no issues. Should I be on the lookout for...

    Replacement COPs

    Moose, Thank you for sticking with this. I called local Ford Dealership. Based on VIN, it is a 2-valve. The specific Ford part is listed as the DG-481. I talked with an aftermarket supplier, and he said the DG-508 is the same part as a DG-481. I am now looking at ordering the MSD Street...

    Replacement COPs

    OK my friends, Based on the VIN, the Ford parts website reports back that I need a 12029 (DG-481) coil. Does anyone know which engine this goes to (i.e. 5.4 2-valve, 5.4 3-valve, or 5.4 4-valve)? This seems to be quite important in ordering the correct aftermarket coils. Thank you for any...

    Replacement COPs

    Yes, I know that, but as indicated, when I search for those, I am not finding anything directly. The search term COP does not return anything. Just having a tough time finding the right thread. I am looking at one of the sponsors sites 1A-Auto, and they have a set for about $99. Has anyone...

    Replacement COPs

    Had the plugs changed by a mechanic about 2 years ago. This spring my intake manifold sprung a coolant link and was also changed. Shortly after that, COP #4 failed. I put in a replacement from a junk yard and that fixed the issue. Now #3 has failed. I can do a short term fix and get another...

    Replacement COPs

    I would like to replace the COPs. Where is the most economical place to buy a set, and which manufacturer/model would you recommend? I have the 5.4 Triton. Thank you, John O
