Saab - 9-5 :: Headlights No Cruise Control When Headlights Turned On
I have a 2002 Saab 9-5 with a 3.0L turbo with 125k miles. The cruise control works fantastic UNLESS the headlights are on... huh??
I can replicate 100% of the time. It is getting dark earlier now - and my wife will not drive it anymore to work (35 miles) without the cruise control working.
Expedition :: 2000 - Sometimes Won't Start
Having a real headache with my Expedition. After doing short journey's will park up the car, come back and it won't start. The dashboard lights are on everything seems ok but the engine won't even turnover. Leave it for about 45mins+, it stars immediately. The mornings are no problem at all it starts first turn.
It is now going into the Ford Dealers for the 3rd time, 1st they cut me new keys was fine for 5days problem returned, 2nd they replaced a new ground cable was great for 22days then same old problem returned. They ran a diagnostic test and everything was working fine.
Expedition :: 2004 Noise When AC Or Heater On
I don't know what it is but it comes on when the air is turned on inside the truck. Heat or A/C doesn't matter and its coming from rear passenger side by the window under the plastic molding. I thought it was a secondary blend door but as I know it the truck only has one.

Wife drove her truck yesterday and not one issue... Today she has no brakes. I checked the fluid and I'm going to try and bleed the brakes but would like to know what else I need to check>
I was in her truck yesterday going to church.. so I don't get it. The brakes push all the way down to the floor.. When you pump them they seem to build pressure but loose it..
Expedition :: Sound Coming From Front At 60 Mph
At 60mph and above there is an odd sound coming from the front of my wife's 2004 expo. Now I think its the half shaft bearing but I can't be certain. I took the tire off and nothing was obvious?

Not sure if it's transmission issues, on the road it took me to a neighbor city with no issues, but on my way back, while running it went from 70mph to 57-60mph and it won't let me go faster, it will not rev up more than 2000rpms, if i step further on the gas it will struggle to rev up, it will, but speed won't go faster, engine just had been rebuilt, it has no catalytic converters. I live in mexico, instead it has 2 "silencers" which were just installed as well since it was making a lot of noise through the exhaust.
Been driving it in the city, (no more than 35mph) with no problems at all, all gears feel great, but haven't tried to go up to 60mph again. Expedition XLT 1998 4x4 ....
Ford - Fans - Expedition :: Defrosting Fan Comes On By Itself
When my 1999 Ford Expedition is turned off and sitting there, even for hours, the defrosting fan comes on by itself. I can feel cold air coming through the vents inside the car. The fan will turn off if I turn on the key or even if I step on the brake pedal, with the car still off. It won't stay off until I disconnect the battery. It seems to occur only when the temperature drops, like below freezing (coincidence??).
The other day, I left the fan running for several hours, it never turned off, I then disconnected the battery. It ran the battery down. Randomly/intermittently the dashboard clock, windshield wiper, or radio won't work when the car is running. I recently bought a new battery . I recently replaced the outside mirrors. Also, the passenger side window won't go up or down using the passenger side control but will using the drivers side control.
Ford A/C :: 1999 Expedition - Only Hot Air In The Front
I bought a used 1999 Expedition Eddie Bauer about 2 years ago. It has been a great truck until recently. The A/C system now only has hot air in the front. I can still get cold air in the back.
The truck has the EATC and I ran a diagnostics check and no faults were reported. Additionally, I can push the buttons on the control module and all the air comes out in the correct positions.The only fault is the lack of cold air.
I have seen bunches of threads about Blend Door failures. I reviewed "lvmilkman2002" thread on the blend door motor. However, on my Expedition when I removed what he detailed it appears to be a blower motor and not a Blend Door Motor. I reviwed the other threads and the actuator that is talked about that you can access from behind the glovebox is also not there.
Where can this actuator be located and how can you check it for operation!!! I am going to attempt this repair this Friday while I have a long holiday weekend.
Ford A/C :: 1999 Expedition - Blowing Hot Air
The AC was blowing hot air. But then we noticed that we could hear a flap closing. So the game has been, to keep it cold, to stop somewhat abruptly, then turn on the AC, then DO NOT accelerate quickly or you will hear the "shut" which makes the air turn hot.
Now, I have gone to auto zone and bought two things: Air Door Actutator, and Blend Door Repair Kit, both supposed to be for 1999 Expedition. I don't yet know which I need. I am looking to do the fix through the glove compartment which I understand is possible, although no one mentioned it here back in 2004.
Expedition :: Won't Start When Roads Are Wet / Snow Melting

I have a 2006 Ford Expedition that runs perfectly with one exception, It will shut off all of a sudden. I can be driving down the highway or in town and all of a sudden it will just stop running. This has happened twice in the past six months. So far I have been able to get to the side of the road safely.the vehicle will immediately start and run perfectly as if nothing has happened. No error codes.

View 9 RepliesFord - Expedition :: 2008 XLT - Rear AC Not Turning On
I just bought a used 2008 Expedition XLT and the rear ac was working on the first day of ownership. On the next day it worked on way to the park but on the way back the rear ac didn't come on. I have tried both the front a rear controls. I can hear a single click sound coming from the rear of the truck (blower area) when I switch the AC on and as I click though the speeds but no air flow or sound form the motor itself. The front AC is working fine but I am not sure where to start trouble shooting the rear ac issue. I have found other issues complaining about clicking sounds and bad actuator but could this be the issue if I am only here a single click.
View 3 RepliesFord - Expedition :: 2003 - Sitting For 2 Years?
So I just got myself an 03 Eddie Bauer 5.4 Expedition.
It's been sitting for at least 2 years and the exterior is in great condition. Other than tires, spark plugs, oil change, antifreeze, and possible tranny fluid change, what else should I look into replacing / fixing?
I bought this vehicle to be used as a daily driver and sit on the weekends, but I'm not sure how neglected it is, I bought if off some close relatives who really never used it. It has 180k miles roughly and like I said, it's been sitting for 2 years.
I've done a fair amount of research on oil/fuel additives like Seafoam, Marvel Mystery Oil, Lucas, etc. A lot of mixed opinions on it, and it seems to be a case by case kinda thing.
I just want this vehicle to last and run well. I'll do anything recommended to make sure it's running well
Ford Expedition :: 2005 - AC Not Working / Low On Charge
I am working on my wife's 2006 Expedition limited with rear air (AC charge of 58 oz). The AC wasn't working so I checked it and it was very low on charge. I figured it was leaking so I added some 134a with dye. In one day it was very low again (like almost no charge). There was dye and oil all over the pump. I figure it is leaking out of a seal on the shaft (I could be wrong about that though, either way the pump is shot).
I remove the pump and got about 1 oz of oil out of it. I also drained the accumulator and got just a few drops out. I have a feeling most of the oil leaked out with the 134 because it was leaking so bad. The new pump came with 150 ml (5 oz) of oil in it. I am now installing it with the oil in it. How much oil should I add/ remove?

View 1 RepliesFord A/C :: 1999 Expedition - Compressor Not Engaging
129k miles, first time ever noticed a/c compressor not engaging -- hadn't tried a/c in a few months, winter and all... Jumpered the cycle switch and determined it was low pressure situation -- took to dealer, who recharged/diagnosed leak situation. Compressor oil leak at front seal (needs replacement) and refrigerant leak at manifold hose assembly.
However - compressor running nice and quiet, after recharge, no problems, silent operation. Couple questions:
1. Ford manual says no need to replace accumulator unless there is evidence of compressor failure (which mine hasn't yet) -- is that 'evidence' trash in the orifice tube? If so, where precisely is it? I know it's in one of the tube assemblies, but can't visualize the location from the diagrams.
2. Since my compressor hadn't failed, still running quiet/smooth, can I just replace that and the leaky hose assembly and be done w/it?
3. Is this a job that's beyond the moderately skilled garage mechanic? I handle most of my own jobs with exception of heavy engine (i.e., heads, etc) but have never attempted a/c-related due to the refrigerant portion of this job. I'm sure I can obtain the proper vacuum equipment somehow, if it's something that's not too overly complicated...
Ford A/C :: 2000 Expedition - No AC At All / All Vents Blowing Hot Air
On my 2000 E.B. I have NO A/C at all. All vents on the dash, regardless of vent, floor, defrost, ETC all blow hot air, even with the A/C on Max A/C. Also, all the rear vents for the rear HVC blow WARM air as well. I have no A/C in the back either. I don't hear any flopping around under the dash going down the road and I have checked the A/C compressor with the unit on Max A/C and the clutch appears to be engaged and the compressor appears to be operating normally.
I have NOT YET checked the A/C lines or dryer to see if they get cold, I will check that tonight, but I expect them to be getting cold because the Compressor does not cycle on and off, it stays running pretty much all the time. It clicks off once and again, but not very often at all (such as the case would be if the system was low on freon).
So, if the A/C lines are getting cold (if they are not, I will know my problem is compressor related, likely anyway), what this problem could be? From what I've read, if the Front blows hot, yet the rear blows cold, it's a blend door actuator or broken blend door, but that is not my problem. I have no A/C at all, everything blows hot.
Ford Transmission :: 1997 Expedition XLT Won't Stay In OD
Vehicle 97 Expy, 5.4 XLT 2x4, air leveling and tow pkg.
Situation: installed TransGo SK E40D spring kit to cure 1st to 2nd hard shift. It did the trick and shifts great up to a point.
Issue: Now after replacing the springs, any and I mean any added load (mild incline, lane change) while in OD it will downshift, won't shift up unless going down hill and I'm sucking gas. 1st-3rd is great, but it will not stay in OD to save its life.
I believe the cure is to reinstall the old OD springs, but I don't know which set that is in the accumulator body? I also could be wrong and it may be something else.
Update: found the instructions, need to know if the 4th Accumulator piston is OD?
