    Transfer Case Shift Motor Help

    I would like to know as well. I'm having the EXACT same problem as the OP. Can't seem to get into 2WD. IWEs all check OK. I can shift 4WD modes OK. Can't get the front driveshaft and axles to stop spinning.

    2003 Ford Expedition xlt 4.6 Clicking sound at rear wheels

    You can lift the rear then use two jack stands to support the axle. Make sure to block the front wheels just to be safe. Then you can start and put it into gear (make sure you're in 2WD). I had to do this several times on my old '98 over the years.

    Question on front driveshaft.. should it be turning?

    Has anyone experienced the TC motor fail where it won't go back into 2WD, but the 4WD modes seem to work as expected?

    Question on front driveshaft.. should it be turning?

    That was my suspicion, but thanks for the clarification. I'm trying to find the source of some drive train harshness we started feeling while in 2WD. Not the typical IWE chatter of them losing vacuum, just a feel in the seat and steering wheel. Feels/sounds like it's in 4WD, which apparently...

    2003 Ford Expedition xlt 4.6 Clicking sound at rear wheels

    Two things from my old '98 that caused rear end clicking: - The parking brake cable was hitting the inside of the rear drivers side tire - One of the parking brake pads inside the rotor had separated from its bracket

    Question on front driveshaft.. should it be turning?

    Hey all, I posted a similar question in the 3rd Gen forum, but figured this might be a better spot. For a 2016 Platinum with Torque on Demand 4WD (2H, 4A, 4H, 4L options), should the front driveshaft and drive axles be turning while in 2WD? Lets assume the IWEs are disengaged as expected. Thanks!

    Question on front drive axles and driveshaft in 2WD

    Hey gang, Got a question. I have a '16 Exped Platinum (110k miles) and am trying to find the source of some drive train harshness we started feeling while in 2WD. Not the typical IWE chatter of them losing vacuum, just a feel in the seat and steering wheel. Feels/sounds like it's in 4WD. -...

    Rear wiper motor nut size.

    Hey gang. Lost the nut holding on the rear wiper arm. Anyone know what the thread size is? I've tried some of my random spares, but nothing fits. Thanks

    Catch Can!

    Got mine (finally) installed the other day on our 2016 Exped. They had them on sale (10%) around Black Friday and I just now got around to putting it on. Ridiculously easy.

    Intermittent loss of front blower motor

    I was not! But I am now... thank you. I assume a letter is on the way.

    Intermittent loss of front blower motor

    So far the new harness seems to be doing it's job. I installed it about 2 weeks ago and no complaints yet. Hopefully the newer design from Ford fixes whatever the flaw was with the old one.

    Intermittent loss of front blower motor

    New harness ordered. I'll get that swapped out and we'll see how it does. Thanks!

    Intermittent loss of front blower motor

    Well, a year later and we're having the same issue. What is it with this connector that keeps failing? Is the gauge too small causing it to overheat, or is it simply poor connection causing the heat-up? Anyone have a permanent fix?

    Question on timing guides/tensioners

    New radiator is in and no leaks. That lower hose connector is really odd. Let's hope that is the end of it's needs for awhile. We did remove the front driveshaft to track down a vibration issue. Looks like I'll need to get that balanced, but that's a topic for another thread.

    Question on timing guides/tensioners

    A couple weeks in and she is still running great. However, the radiator must have been jealous of all the attention, because it started leaking a few days ago. The plastic end has a split right down the side. Still drive-able for short trips (my son uses this to get to practice and work). New...

    Need ANOTHER fan clutch

    Can't say I have any suggestions for you, sorry. Just curious about what symptoms you see when it goes out? Does the fan just not spin up anymore? I wonder if they make electric fan kits for these trucks?

    Question on timing guides/tensioners

    Ok, so I finally got around to tackling this job. It took me 4 days to get it done, which included dropping the oil pan. As it turns out, that part was an absolute necessity. The two stationary guides had completely lost the plastic liners, most of which had ended up on the oil pan and tons of...

    03 5.4L 2V - new oil pump won't prime

    I am getting ready to change my oil pump on my 4.6 Romeo as part of a timing job. I saw the same video you mentioned above and even have it bookmarked. I'm interested to know what you find out.

    Question on timing guides/tensioners

    Thanks for the feedback. Actually we decided to just go all in and do the entire timing. I've got a new timing set, along with a new oil pump on order. The pressure has been almost bottoming out at idle. Replacing the sending unit did nothing. From what I've read, its most likely that pieces...

    Question on timing guides/tensioners

    Hey gang. I have a 98 Exped (4.6L W engine, 4x4) with 280k on the clock. Its developed a rattle up in the timing area, and I'm assuming one of the chain guides is broken, or one of the tensioners is not doing its job. It doesn't do it 100% of the time, but its there for the majority of it. The...

    turned on heated seat, got AC seat (@17 F)

    Did you ever resolve this? My wife reported the exact same issue this morning with our '16, including the increase in fan noise.

    Heated Seat Suddenly Blowing Cold

    My bride just reported the exact same issue on our '16 this morning. Does the seat need to come out to get to this part or can it be serviced in-place? Thanks!

    Anti-noise

    I'll give that a look. I know for some reason, the truck had the DRL disabled when we bought it, so I'm curious if this was turned off as well. Thanks!

    Anti-noise

    Any idea how far that (active noise reduction) goes back? Would that be on 2016 you think?
