#1691 of 1827 Re: Car Won't Start !! Please Help !! [compman6] by stumpthegrump Mar 13, 2007 (1:34 pm)
Replying to: compman6 (May 26, 2005 7:21 am) Is there a way to verify this? I have the same issue. When I turn the key I get nothing and the radio goes dead. It does eventually come back though. I do not hear anything until several seconds later it sounds as if something disengages. I ask this because I have to go to a dealer to get this part.

Replying to: stumpthegrump (Mar 13, 2007 1:34 pm) OK. I was able to determine that the Relay was bad via an ohm meter. The bottom stud should be hot with greater than 10V. Then when the ignitiion is in the start position the top stud should be hot with > 10 volts. Mine wasn't. Replaced it $9.50 the local auto parts store. Thanks.

Replying to: fitguy (Nov 09, 2004 7:53 am) Thank God I came across your post. My 99 expy was recently lifted and towed to the mechanic for some work. I got the car back on saturday, yesterday and I noticed it was very low at the back. The mechanic did mentioned that this was due to the air suspension, the car ride was so bumpy and shaking that I took the truck back today. I guess there is nothing the mechanic can do to it and I do no hope they will not try to dupe me by telling stories. I turned the switch, I mean the air suspension switch off and on couple of time after but still no changes. Just for future reference, so it is advisable to switch the air suspension off when the truck is getting ready to be lifted right?   Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Replying to: ayakata (Mar 18, 2007 9:02 pm) It's always advisable to switch off the rear air suspension when put on a lift. This keeps it from constantly running.   My '99's back end was bouncing around after a coupler failed under the hood. I heard a pfffhht sound like an air brake on a truck, then the back end wouldn't raise up anymore even though the compressor kept trying. I was parked and idling on a steep hill when it failed.   If you don't hear the compressor trying to pump up the air bags, it's probably a fuse.   Good luck.

#1696 of 1827 Lower ball joints by mrted Apr 09, 2007 (12:36 pm)
I have a 1998 Expedition EB 4x4, 5.4 engine and I need to replace the lower ball joints and I need to know if I need a special tool or do I beat them out with a brass rod and hammer.
#1697 of 1827 97 Expedition Air Suspension Questions by 85stang Apr 10, 2007 (9:37 am)
I have a 97 Eddie Bauer Exp with 85K on it. At start up and occasionally during trips the air suspension compressor will be very loud (compared to how it used to be). Has anyone else had outcomes other than expensive replacements, and if not what all had to be replaced? Does this model have four way load leveling available? At one point it seemed to be riding low on one side, but the dealer said it only had front/rear leveling. Just curious. Thanks for any replies. Replies to this message: cadet (Jul 29, 2007 9:08 am)
#1700 of 1827 "NO CDDJ" on 2000 Expy radio - help! by rbarbot Apr 16, 2007 (1:44 pm)
I have seen others post this problem here before but no solution that I can see.   My 2000 Expy CD-Changer stopped working months ago and displayed "NO CDDJ" on the radio display when I push the CD button. The changer had no power and wouldn't eject the magazine.   I wrongfully made the assumption that the changer was dead and sent it in for repair. Just got it back and it tests OK. Put it back in and the same error is displayed. All the audio fuses on the fuse block and under-hood fuse block check OK.   What else can it be? Is there another fuse to the changer unit in the console or under the dash somewhere? Could the head unit be damaged? Short of solving this myself, will the dealer even be able to diagnose radio problems very well with a scope or other tools?   Thanks in advance.
