Ford Excursion :: 2002 - Rear Lights Not Going On When Put It In Reverse


Jul 15, 2013

2002 excursion with 7.3 diesel. A while ago i had problems with it not starting, and a buddy of mine worked on neutral safety switch. It was the issue, and it then worked. shortly thereafter, i noticed the backup sensors were not working, and figured it was just my luck. what i also didn't notice was the rear lights were not going on when i put it in reverse.

Just so happened one day when I put it in reverse i was a little off in the shifting and the backup sensor worked. I played around and discovered that when i lightly shifted into R (so that it was much more towards Park) things worked. so we ended up trying to adjust it some more. As of now, still doesn't engage backup sensors or reverse lights, and I have to hold the shifter up hard into park to start it. if i don't it wont start. How do I get it to adjust correctly?

Ford Excursion :: Reverse Lights Quit Working

I have checked the fuse number 38 and it's fine, and I've also checked the bulbs and they look good. Where else do I look to check for problems with my reverse lights not working? I just had my transmission rebuilt, and wondering if a sensor or something went bad?

Ford Excursion :: 2002 - Replaced Bumper Now Reverse Sensor Stop Working?

My 2002 Excursion was rear ended. Body shop replaced the bumper. I noticed that the reverse aid was no longer working. I checked and noticed that non of the sensors were working. It was working before they replaced the bumper. If the speaker is out, would the four rear sensor still tick? I find it mighty strange, that it worked before and after the accident. Now that they've replaced the bumber, Every time it's placed in reverse, the light comes on.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2002 F350 - Reverse Lights Won't Go Out Even With Engine Off And Key Out

My daughter came home a bit ago and told me the backup lights on my '02 F350 were on. Pretty odd because the keys were in my pocket at the time.

When I opened the door to the truck, I noticed a faint electrical smell and noticed the fan for the environmental controls was running as well.

I'm guessing the light issue is probably a sensor or something at the transmission but why would the blower be running as well?

Early last week I finally decided to try and figure out why my cruise control hadn't been working and discovered fuse F2.34 was blown. Replaced it and went through the test procedure described here: [URL] ....

No issues and the cruise is working again. I had to take it on a road trip for work the following day and didn't have any issues for almost 1,000 miles.

I drove it last night and didn't have the issue. I drove it again this morning to several places and everything was fine.

I've got a tuner with a code reader. Would something like the above problem register a code?

I've not stuck my head under the truck yet (it's cold and dark out.) What sensors I might need to check out? Is there a testing procedure available to ID the faulty component?

The battery is disconnected for the night, but I'd sure like to get this thing sorted before I hit the road for work again this week.

I did a search and most of what I found is about front end/middle body flex, not rear end "clunk" noises.

The rear (side) pop-out windows on my '02 X have begun to sag at the back of the truck. They operate just fine, but the glass is actually touching the body when they are closed.

Ford Excursion :: No Rear Running Lights Or Dashboard Lighting

I have a 2001 7,3 TDI. Yesterday I rented a trailer and when I connected the cable from the trailer to my car, the rear running lights and the dashboard lighting died. I have checked all the fuses. I read that the dash lights go out when the rear running lights go, but I cant find out what fuse or relay to change. I have checked the fuses in the car and in the engine room, but I cant find a broken one. What to do ?

Ford Excursion :: 2002 - Overhead Console And Rear Heater Not Working

Wife just told me tonight that the overhead console and rear heater are not working in the excursion. Of course, we have a 3 hour drive tomorrow and it is cold outside.. The posts seem to center on either the readout not working or the heater not working, but not both. Trying to minimize time troubleshooting outside in the cold.

Ford Excursion :: 2002 - Small Clunk Sound Coming From Rear End?

I was running a small errand today, about 10 miles round trip. When I started out, I heard a small 'clunk' sound coming from the rearend. When I was on the return trip and making my last stop, the 'clunk' sound had become quite louder as I accelerated, and could really feel it. When I got home, I took a look and was expecting to see maybe a sway bar link detached or the bushing worn.

I did not expect to see two lug nuts completely gone, including the stud, as well as the holes in the rim no longer round. Big gouges in the rim around the remaining lug nuts, about to be sheared off! The other side had two missing lug nuts, however, the rim is still intact. What would cause such horrific damage? I am lucky that I was not driving on the freeway at 80 mph! This is my 2002 Excursion 4x4.

Ford Excursion :: 2002 F250 - Rear Tire Goes Out Sidewall Blow

So rolling down I29 and its cold and the wind is howling. Rear tire goes out sidewall blow. Thinking load rating of C is not enough for the EX?

Anyways not a big deal cause I'm smart! I checked my spare and all the stuff I need to change it cause i'm prepared. Go to put the tire iron on that I removed from under the hood perfect fit too. Guess what, it is way to small for the lugs. Luckily I had earned some karma points the day before working for a guy with a 02 F250 7.3 who's alternator died. A guy in a suburban stopped and his wrench was close enough to crack the nuts.

So after searching and not finding much my two questions are. Any replacement for the factory tire iron that bolts under the hood? Is there another vehicle other then an Ex I can take it from? I like the idea of it being there bolted down under the hood.

What load rating is everyone running and or recommends. I noticed my spare was an F lol which is far from C. My EX is 7.3 and She was loaded heavy with black friday goods.

Ford Excursion :: 2002 - Dome And Running Board Lights Draining Battery?

2002 Exc, 7.3L TD, Some one broke into the truck last week by jaming a screwdriver into the door key lock. Tried to pull the ignition out but failed. Pulled the A/V system out, cutting wires and such. So the dealer (insurance covered it ) installed the new door lock and said nothing is wrong with the ignition. But now the dome lights and running board lights come on at random and kill the batteries.

Could it be the ignition? Or something inside the driver's door? The batteries are brand new.

Ford - Explorer :: 2002 - Intermittent Rear Brake Lights

We have a 02 Sport Trac that has intermittent brake light problem. All other functions for the bulb filament for the brake lights work! Turn signal and flashers work great. The brake light that is above the rear window works, BUT the brake lights on the rear of the Sport Trac work when they what to.

Right now I can not find a cause that causes them to not work or to work. This morning they worked in the garage but did not work as my wife pulled out of the driveway. Last night they did not work on part of the way home but worked coming into the drive way.

Ford Ranger / B-Series :: Reverse Lights Only Come On Between Park And Reverse

On my '96 ranger with an automatic the reverse lights only come on between park and reverse, but once put into reverse they go out. The gear selector on the dash reads right, when the needle is on"P"it's in park, "R" drops into reverse and so forth. Do I need to adjust the shifter cable on the side of the transmission? If so how do I do this (I kinda need step by step with removal and adjusting, I've already tried and couldn't get it off the bracket). It's starting to drive me nuts, I've searched on the web for hours with no luck. I've even posted on other sites with zero answers.

Ford - Explorer :: 2002 - Green Wire Cut Extending Out Of Harness Connecting Rear Lights?

While pulling the bed and dropping the fuel tank to replace the sending unit, I noticed a green wire that had been cut extending out of the harness of wires that connect the rear lights. a bunch of cars were tagged in the neighbor hood and they probably cut that wire. it connects to a black and red wire in the Y at the harness. Where does it go to? Simple ground wire? No tow package on the truck either. Where it leads too?
