1. Where is the ambient air temperature sensor?

Sometimes the temp display goes all the way down to -13 or whatever, with a corresponding failure of the AC to operate properly. Gonna try a new sensor.

2. Are there any holes under the AdvanceTrac/RSC badge on the lift gate?

Just thought it'd look cleaner with it off but if there's holes that ain't happening.

Keep in mind there is a chance I could be wrong but I swear I’ve read it’s pinned in before. Seems every badge on mine is pinned through. I thought about removing my front door emblems when they faded but resorted to filling them in with a sharpie marker when I found out they were permanently fixed. Seems the early 3rd gen had more badges as well as being pinned through.

I'll have to look at the badges I removed but I believe there are holes behind the expedition emblem but not the advancetrac. I added the 15-17 chrome trim to mine and didn't have to patch anything. Pretty sure the pin on the expedition lined up with the new trim pin and nothing behind AdvanceTrac. I'll find my emblems tomorrow to check back in

My 08 has no holes under the advance trac tailgate badge. The Expedition XLT badges on the tailgate and doors have two holes each.

Nice, is the advance trac one just double sided tape adhesive? I’d ditch mine......but almost too scared it will pull paint with it....

True. Everyone knows the paint on the lift gate is sketchy at best lol. Could try the fishing line trick...
