    No power at 7 pin connector

    My 2004 with tow package came with the towing relay or relays and a fuse in a bag uninstalled. I found the bag in the jack compartment with instructions to install. Perhaps it was a practice they continued through 2007.,

    Rear A/C question

    There is only one ac compressor for both front and rear. I'm pretty sure its still pully driven. The engine has to be running. Solar panels won't help.

    2016 Sirus Radio question

    This started for me after a Sync 3 update. It is an annoyance. If you use the remote start function the radio will stay on satellite.

    SYNC 3 temperamental

    Mine can be sluggish when its below freezing until the car warms up a bit but its never frozen up.

    2003 EB w/ ENT system stereo swap?

    I used the Metra 70-5520AV wire harness. It will power the DVD and allow you to listen to it through the new stereo but you won't be able to control it from the front anymore.

    Thank you chuck s & LokiWolf for the info. My dealer parts dept. said it was about $135 but I neglected to ask what version they had as I wasn't ready to purchase it.

    WTF is up with the latest sync update OTA

    Just curious. Does anyone have Navigation maps more current than "NA 1 15"? Thats what my 2017 came with. I don't mean to hijack. Should this be its own thread?

    Any way to disable memory seats?

    I had a 2004 EB until very recently. Just program both memory settings to the same position and the seats won't move. Just for the record though, if the battery and charging system are working correctly there's nothing to worry about. I never disabled mine and the truck started every time in...

    License plate holder

    Plastic rivets and the tool to use them are inexpensive at the auto store. I had a rivet give way years ago and the replacement rivet is still doing its job.

    Thinking of buying a 2003 Eddie Bauer, anything I should watch out for?

    I believe only Eddie bauer have 2 tone leather seating. I've seen the 2 tone seats that weren't cooled.

    98 5.4 coolant level issue!

    The fluid is going somewhere and then coming back to bottle. How old are the hoses? Are they swelling when hot and contracting when cool?

    98 5.4 coolant level issue!

    Air somewhere in the system perhaps. Engine gets hot and sucks in coolant, cools off and it refills overflow? If it was leaking the overflow wouldn't refill. Does the radiator also have a cap to check when cold?

    Travel Trailers

    The weight of passengers and cargo in the truck needs to be considered. It gets subtracted from either max trailer weight or tongue weight. I forget but someone will correct me.

    Anyone ever use powerstop slotted rotors/pads

    I did. They were about two years old when they delaminated.

    Anyone ever use powerstop slotted rotors/pads

    I have them and I wouldn't buy them again. They aren't any better than stock. I'm on my second set of powerstop rotors up front. I thought the first set warped somehow so I replaced them. What I thought was warped was the plating coming off the rotors in chunks. My 2 cents.

    Front end grinding at full turn stop in 4WD

    Yes. Don't do it. 4 hi is only for loose surfaces. Snow, sand, gravel, ECT. 4A or 2hi only on the road. Even in rain.

    Air bleeder valve location?

    No bleeder valve that I know of. Sounds like a vacuum leak I had. Stepped on gas and the AC blew warm.
