2000 Expedition

[kym67]

I have a 2000 expedition the air ride went in it they replace the switch that was not functioning right. then last week it needed to be heli coiled. since then my ck susp light is on. could it be that the computer needs to be reset or is it cuz my struts or shocks whatever they are in front are shot and i need new ones. someone please tell me. i have to go to VA in two weeks and i want my truck running right. hope someone has answers

Ummm, english? Cause I failed to read any of that without getting a headache.

seeing i reread and reread it is in english. i spell it out for you ck susp means check suspension and it was fixed but the light has come back on again. the t r u c k is not s a g g i n g so i know it is not the air ride. i am wondering if it is because i need new s h o c k s in front that is what is making it come on.

I dont have a check suspension light so i guess i dont really know but i have never known worn shocks to throw codes or lights on any vehicle. I am pretty sure if you take it to a AUTOZONE they will throw it on their computer and tell you whats wrong with it... at least the one here does ...

Umm why don't you take it where you got it fixed the first time?

You expected someone here to tell you whats wrong with THAT description?

Paragrphs and sentences make up the English language not just the words.

Ty for your help with that. Does Auto Zone charge for that. See when my air suspension went it was like riding in a low rider truck lol. The check suspension light is on but the truck is still at the same height. So im wondering if it has to do with the shocks seeing they told me i need new ones. Which I will be getting. I just do not want to spend more money on this truck then i have to. The last month I have had nothing but problems with it. I never even knew air suspension existed on these vechiles. I should of stuck with my Explorer. Love my truck but not the money i just put into it.

I dont think they charge for that and if they do its really cheap. Most stealerships and shops around ohio charge 75-125 just to put it on a computer. If it rides fine did you fix it yourself or at a buddys house who wouldnt have a device to clear the code?

I actually had it repair at a repair shop. I am going to go there tomorrow and see if they will recheck it to see if they cleared the code. It was not coming on any more after they fixed the air ride. Then it had to be heli coiled because of a spark plug being stripped. Ever since then it has come back on. Maybe the computer needs to be reset?

I personally think the air ride is garbage. I would recommend a kit like this (www.strutmasters.com) or keep spending money on the set up you currently have. You probably have a bad sensor
