That was going to be my first suggestion as well. Although being the electrician I am I would check all of my plug connections first to insure something hasn't come loose over the years. The window buttons stopped working on my expys driver door one day and it turned out to be a loose plug. But...
I know what you mean about the flicker. My passenger side headlamp flickers when the truck is off periodically. I have had to replace the bulb once already. Lifetime warranty thankfully. Next time it burns itself up I may switch over to HID for the lows and leave the LED in the highs since most...
This is the harness I got when I ordered my new stereo for my 2006 Limited. As you can see it has the step down plug in it. Whoever sold you your kit did you a disservice or made a mistake.

The control for the power mirrors is the same know that you use to adjust the mirror. Place the selector in the center position and then toggle it down (Like you are adjusting the mirror down) and they will fold in. Mine had issues when I got it but I said screw it as I never really have a need...
I have an 06 Limited that averages around 15MPG. Wondering if anyone with a second gen is getting anything better than that and if so have you done any modifications to achieve a higher MPG. Thanks in advance.
You should have around 3" of travel from all the way against the firewall to all the way out. If they don't move that far then you probably have a broken sprocket.
I have an 06 limited that just turned 199,000. No tick from the motor. I run full synthetic in it and have the oil changed at the dealer every 5000 miles. Although this time around it is about 2000 overdue because I have been working 6 12 hour days for a few months. Going in next Saturday.
You were fortunately much more polite than I would have been had I seen and responded to this thread first. I like you am beating my head against the desktop as I think about bungee cords to hold a hood shut.
So you have any photo's? Kind of curious what it would look like. Did you change all the other lights on the dash as well? AC / Radio / Door buttons etc? How much did it cost to have done. I was kind of hoping for a bright white like the newer expys and trucks have.
I had already planned on plugs and coil packs. She's starting to develop the dreaded stutter. All the other items you list make sense. Wonder if I should flush/service the tranny too?
So, I have a dim spot in the instrument cluster on my Expy (photo attached) . Wondering if anyone has had this before and what they did to fix it. I know the obvious thing to check would be a dead bulb. Tried moving a bulb from another socket that I knew worked and no change. Wondering if this...
So, the old girl is about to hit 200,000 before long.
Want to find out what kinds of things I should seriously consider having serviced at this milestone. I know this information is in the owners manual but am wondering if there are things that other members think are important that might not...
Is that photo your 98 or 03? I like the housings. I have been looking for some for my 06 but haven't found any that I like. Kind of pointless to do switchbacks in the factory housing since it has an amber lens.
So it's just plug and play then? And I assume to get the white light the parking lights have to be on (or else there is no power getting to the light) then when you hit the turn signal the amber portion of the light will come on?
I apologize if my post came across as bashing the OP. I was simply adding my two cents to the conversation. As for the last line of my post (I assume this is where you feel I was bashing) it was meant to be humorous hence the LOL at the end.
Hello all. Second Gen owner here. Just thought I would drop my two cents.
I personally think that the 4th Gen Expy is FUGLY and don't even get me started on the Navigator. I love the look of the second gen and I am still up in the air on the 3rd Gens.
I think Ford is trying way to hard to...
Crusing around the site and found this conversation.
I have an 06 Limited that I bought used from a soccer mom. Can we say 110% Factory? I used the CD player for about three months until I had the cash to install a Bluetooth compatible head unit. I have a collection of about 400 CD's. Mostly...
