    Transfer Case Shift Motor Help

    Thanks for the information! The shift motor it self is very easy to get to and change out, but at around $265 it's an expensive test. It seems like it shifts to everything except 2WD based on the fact the front drive shaft and axles never disconnect, only the wheel hubs. It may not be...

    2012 Expedition EL Limited 4X4 going on 3rd transmission

    Of all the vehicles I've owned, I've never had transmission issues. I bought the vehicle used with 130k miles, seem to be very well kept. About 5k miles later it started making noise, took it in and low and behold the transmission is having issues. Replaced the transmission, around 15k...

    When do you use the door code?

    Bought my Expedition used, didn't know the master code. There is a sticker on the computer, that is located on the front passenger side, located under the glove box. Took me about 5 minutes to get it to, and able to reset the door codes

    Decent Code scanner

    I have tried several cheapy OBD Scanners, they are OK on newer vehicles, but seem to lack older protocols, or older vehicles, and wouldn't work on my 97 F150 However, this one works great on my 97 F150, and all my other vehicles foreign and domestic. I even had an issue with an inspection...

    2012 Ford Expedition EL Limited - Please Help Troubleshoot an Issue

    After reading mixed reviews on store brand hub assemblies, I replaced the hubs yesterday with Timken Much better feel overall and got rid of allot of the noise I heard The old hubs still looked good, but something odd I've never seen before, and could have definitely caused or added to the...

    2012 Ford Expedition EL Limited - Please Help Troubleshoot an Issue

    Ha Ahhh! Now this I did not think of, will do that! This has some additional reasoning behind it. I use this as my tow vehicle for my offshore boat. I went out in February, and then again March just to run the engines, and last weekend. Prior to February, I do not recall having this...

    2012 Ford Expedition EL Limited - Please Help Troubleshoot an Issue

    I wouldn't think a tensioner or idler pully would be related to vehicle speed It comes to a complete stop when the vehicle stops Then as you accelerate, it slowly picks up in volume and tone I have even done manual shifting, coasting in neutral without the engine, to try and eliminate...

    2012 Ford Expedition EL Limited - Please Help Troubleshoot an Issue

    Hopefully the brain trust here will help point me in the right direction. I have a 2012 Ford Expedition EL Limited 4X4 with 151k miles on it. When the vehicle is cold, for about the first 10 to 15 miles, I hear a growling noise, or almost as if I'm driving with semi off road tires, almost...

    Electric Seat Blowing Fuse

    Still no luck on blowing the fuse. I have even had a shop take a look at it and they cannot determine the cause. The seat rails were replaced, the control module replaced, the electric motors have been tested, all this checks, out, pretty much everything on the seat except the covering and...

    Well, it’s happening again.

    I read the same prior to purchase, even reading where guys are towing 8 to 9k on a regular bases, but who knows what the previous owner did to the vehicle? The new transfer case was purchased with the transmission, 5 year warranty, and they had a different opinion, same as yours, so hopefully...

    Well, it’s happening again.

    I would agree on that, and hope there is nothing else going on, this all happened over a two year period. Prior to purchasing, I read all over where people are getting 200 k+ on Expeditions Having previously owned Toyota's, one with 275 and another with just over 340k miles and no issues...

    Well, it’s happening again.

    Where did you get 2 years old from? 2012 Vehicle is 2 years old? I bought it used two years ago, so that would make it 5 years old at the time of purchase Relentless

    Well, it’s happening again.

    We're you doing any towing? My buddy replaced his at 80k and was not used for towing or anything Relentless

    Well, it’s happening again.

    The transmission started having issues after about 10k miles towing 7,800 I didn't replace parts just for the fun of it I can assure you And the point is, over a 2 year period, even with the work that was done, it has come out even still a 1/3rd the cost of a new like vehicle Buying a new...

    Well, it’s happening again.

    Here is prime example. A couple of years ago I bought a 2012 Ford Expedition EL Limited 4X4 with 65k miles on it, body and everything in mint condition, loaded with every option available, all leather, 3 tv screens, heated/cooled seats all the way around, front and rear captain chairs, auto...

    Electric Seat Blowing Fuse

    Troubleshooting this on my own. Maybe the previous owner the fuse to 40amp because of the issue, I need to check what it should be. Yes on the dual electric seats Sent from my SM-N950U1 using Tapatalk

    Electric Seat Blowing Fuse

    I was only thinking temperature because if the previous owner used the wrong oil/grease, the viscosity could go up in colder weather and place more drag on the slides as worm/screws. I've seen oils and grasses get very thick, even sticky, when used in incorrect applications and cold temperatures...

    Electric Seat Blowing Fuse

    I was considering the switches as a possibility, would the drivers side be compatible with the passenger side, so I could swap them to see if the problem moves? I was also wondering if it could be a bad relay not making good contact at times. It does seem like the seatback tilt blows the fuse...
