    Drop fuel tank using tie downs?

    2016 4x4 XLT with a dead fuel pump. Crank no start, all fuses are good. It is parked on our drive way which is at a steep angle. Tank is 2/3 full which likely means a 170 lb tank with fuel moving around. I've tried siphoning out the gas with tubing as small as 1/8" but I just can't get it...

    Replacing the blow off valve

    A year or more ago I received the P0299 error. I watched a few videos and they removed the innercooler to swap the blow off valve. None of that is at all necessary as I found out today because I finally got around to it. 1. Rotate the white clips 90 degrees and pull the protective cowl out of...

    Turbo Coolant lines OE or aftermarket?

    I bought dye from Amazon along with a black light. This led me to the all too common turbo coolant line fitting leak on the driver's side turbo. Gates sells steel replacement tubes that they claim were engineered to address problems with OE. While I can't envision holding onto the Expedition...

    Coolant low by > 1 gallon

    Good afternoon, A couple weeks ago I posted about the loud fan running near 100% of the time and the interior fan not working. I suspected the thermostat but (over the phone) my mechanic said to check the coolant level and if it was low then it becomes a matter of finding the leak. Got back...

    No hot air and the turbo fan kicks on in cool weather

    It was cool enough tonight for me to rotate the temperature to warm and when that wasn't doing anything - I rotated it all the way into the red but still no heat. The A/C works just fine. I'm guessing this is also related to the thermostat telling the godawful loud radiator fan to kick on. It...

    Installed the PowerStop Z36 pads & rotors on the front & back (myself)

    The Expy had been making noises like it needed new brakes. After a 2,400 mile vacation trip two weeks ago, it started grinding. I ordered the Z36 kit with rotors and pads from Amazon. It took me about 7 hours, spread over two days to get of them done but I am very pleased with the results...

    Catalytic or cat lock DIY?

    I have a 4x4 XLT 2016 that I’m worried about having the cat stolen. I don’t want to spend $160+ on the cat clock device plus labor. Thought I’d ask if anyone on this forum has gotten creative and DIY’d an anti theft method themselves?

    After Forscan headlights won't turn off

    I decided to hook up the OBDLink EX to the 2016 Expedition tonight. Increasing the number of blinks for the turn signal worked well so I went to the module where the PDF with notes by Lokiwolf, MCostin and ExpeditionAndy said hyperflash would be disabled. BdyCM 726-13-01 & 726-14-01. Entering...

    Turn signal LED replacement brand?

    My right rear turn signal died so I replaced them both with cheap incandescent bulbs. The housing were brown and blackened from too much heat. I’d like to replace them with LEDs but I don’t want to mess with splicing in a resistor if they throw an error or do the rapid blink. I have a 2016 XLT...

    2016 Manual A/C front blower working intermittently replacement parts

    If your front fan blows intermittently or just stops then is quite probably the resistor and wiring harness. On mine one of the pins was blackened as was the matching hole on the pigtail. Very easy fix since it only involved two 8 mm screws, clipping 4 wires and then splicing in the...

    Squeaking muffler bracket

    Our 2016 muffler squeaks with the slightest movement of the Expy I see eBay has a 2-3 pack of rubber brackets for $12 or so. Just pushing on the Expy causes the muffler to squeak. Anybody replaced the bracket? Straight forward or a pain?

    2016 Expedition Oil change

    The only videos I found were for the Expedition EL and its drain bolt location is in a different location than mine. 1Left_front by adamsdaddy posted May 25, 2019 at 10:35 PM 2IMG_23016 by adamsdaddy posted May 25, 2019 at 10:35 PM 3IMG_23015 by adamsdaddy posted May 25, 2019 at 10:35 PM...

    Oil change where is the bolt to drain?

    bery irritating. Only found one video of a guy with a 2016 EL. His video is dark when showing the bolt. Lame I have the Expedition on jacks resdy to go but I can’t tell which bleeping bolt I’m supposed to loosen. Then my phone does this stupid burst mode so I end up with 10 photos. So much...

    Throttle Body how to clean-best to remove?

    i have a 2016 Expy with the 3.5 Ecoboost. Idle began moving around a few months ago and it doesn’t always let me crawl along when backing up like it did a year ago. Dealer said throttle body and MAF cleaning for $495. I said I’ll do it. Problem is that I’ve yet to find a video with my...

    Need to find roof rack brackets Thule or Yakima

    We have a used Thule Sweden and my neighbor has a Yakima that he'll let me borrow. The Thule doesn't have any brackets and my neighbor owns a Honda Pilot which has narrow cross members so his U bolts are too narrow. So far I've not managed to find a fit kit for the Expedition that isn't close...

    High tranny temps. Cost to install HD coolers?

    I pulled our 3,500 lb trailer behind the Expy for the first time this weekend. The braking and power of the Expy make it a breeze. The problem however is with the tranny temperature. It went as high as 238. When I kept it in a lower gear with higher RPMs that helped lower it down to 230...

    Orange goes in but doesn't come out?

    I'm determined to find the elusive orange wire to route power back to the 7 pin trailer plug. In the engine compartment in front of the driver is this big plug. I see a fat orange wire on the left (front of the car) but no orange on the side that goes to the back of the Expedition. If one of...

    2016 Expedition brake controller wiring

    I have the tow prep package which includes the 4 pin and has the blue wire (electric brakes) run back to the 4 pin connector (capped). Do not follow the steps in various YouTube videos which tell you to take apart your dash and pull your radio to find the brake harness. Completely unnecessary...

    4 pin to 7 where is the 12V line?

    Just bought a 2016 XLT 4X4 with the Class IV tow package. I will be adding a 7 pin. I see the wire tagged elec which I know to be the blue I need for the brakes. Before I cut into the loom - does anybody know if the orange 12 volt wire is also in there? Another old thread on the Truck forum said...
