    2011 power boards rotten "link" rod?

    David I would just try hosing then with your lube/penetrant oil of choice and then cycle the boards a bunch. I even went as far as drilling a small hole in the one "gearbox"housing to spray lube into it. It did help but that motor was to far gone and still needed to be replaced in the end. I...

    Looking at buying a 2011 XL Expy: anything to be wary of?

    Check the rockers. On my 2011 the power running boards were both stuck in the UP position when I got it. That helped to hold snow and salt up there against the rockers I assume. Rotted mine pretty bad. Didn't hardly notice when I got the truck cause the boards were up and blocking my view.

    2011 power boards rotten "link" rod?

    And the driver side replacement I used was one from amazon, maybe 140 or so, and has been working great. Although I did also drill out the hole on both sides that the motor shaft goes through to 3/4" and then installed 2 3/4" OD x 5/8" ID brass bushings. To get rid of them crap mesh like...

    2011 power boards rotten "link" rod?

    So on my 2011 EL I have replaced the driver side motor and now today finally did the passenger side. The issue now is that I found the "link" rod the runs from the front driven/master hinge to the rear idle/slave hinge is rotted right through. Anyone else have this issue? I plan to go tomorrow...

    2011 map update worth it?

    I have a 2011 expedition MAXX limited (also 2011 Lincoln MKZ) and am wondering if the factory gps map updates are worth the $150? I have been watching the update site for a year now and it still only offers update 10X, which is the 2017 edition!? I called at the beginning of 2018 here and when I...

    get traffic on 2011 sync

    Is there any way to get better navigation or just traffic on a 2011 with the sync system? Free syrious radio has given me traffic, but I know that's about to end. Any apps that can be used through this older sync system? I see how the sync 3 can use all kinds of gps apps! Thanks in advance, Zach J

    Seat AC works but heat doesn't ?

    Also I may try unplugging either the seat cushion or the seat back element, one at a time, and then seeing if it still trips itself out. At least I can isolate were the issue is then.

    Seat AC works but heat doesn't ?

    Just ordered the ohp brand elm327 plug so I will try that. Also ordered a new motor for my driver side power running board. Gears are stripped. Thanks for all the help guys. Will update when I hopefully get it fixed.

    Seat AC works but heat doesn't ?

    Thanks for the reply. I pulled the fuse, and the next time I tried it it seemed to work but cut out after about 30 seconds. Any other ideas?

    Seat AC works but heat doesn't ?

    on my 2011 expedition limited max, the driver side seat heater doesn't work. When I press the button the light comes on and the blown cones on as well. But after about 10 seconds it shuts off. At that point neither the heated or the cooled seat functions will work? The cooled one does work when...
