I have access to the Auto Repair Reference Center through my public library. It's a bit hit or miss, but the coverage for the '04 Expedition looks pretty good. Even has wiring diagrams. It's a bit of a pain to look stuff up in the garage, but you can print stuff out beforehand.
 
Sometimes you can find factory shop manuals on eBay. And Helm has a shop manual for $180.

#1823 of 1934 2002 ford expedition eddie bauer sunroof issue, please help by rail21

Jul 26, 2009 (8:41 am)

I have a 2002 ford Expedition Eddie Bauer. I opened The Sun roof Last night to the fully open mode. When I tried to close it nothing happened . Yet when you try the switch to the open position the sun roof moves back 2 inches and when you try the switch to the close position it will close those two inches yet will not move any further. Is there any way of manually closing this sun roof? Also If I have to remove the headliner( Nightmare Solution ) How do I remove Those darn Plastic Hanger Hooks?

I thought it was from putting in cheap gas. It was after that the engine started bucking when driving.
Got worse after a week and the whole front end was shaking when you accelerated.
Took it to get codes checked and it said it was missing on cyl 4.
We replaced all the plugs, boots and coils. Still acting up so we replaced the fuel injectors, fuel filter and one coil pack.
It ran but sounded like it was missing still and would buck a little when driving. Took it to get codes checked again and the mass air flow sensor came up.
We installed the new sensor but it was worse and would not stay on, Turn it on and it would idle low and choppy and die.
Put old sensor back in and no difference.
Disconnected the mass air flow senor wires and the truck ran better. It still was a choppy idle and sounded bad, but didn't die.
 
We are thinking maybe it is the air flow sensor's connector or cable.
 
Is there anything else it could be?
We have not had our vehicle for 2 weeks now and keep having to try borrowing my in law's van or get rides as we only have one vehicle and I work overnight and my wife works days. I am really hoping to get it running again this weekend.
Not sure exactly what I should try next.
 
Would appreciate any help and suggestions.

Most auto parts stores will pull the codes for free. Then you can report back and post the codes and get some suggestions for things to look at.

By the way, I replaced all the tires, cause it was driving me nuts, and it is not a problem anymore...now with 110k miles, never a problem again. Had a grinding sensation at higher speeds and when turning...had the drive shaft replaced, not a problem anymore.
 
My new problem is a rough engine feel at idle, the cab actually vibrates at stand-still, and a small amount of smoke in the front end (service engine soon light on). Any ideas?

ryuuko,
 
Did you ever get your problem fixed? Did you ever replace any other coil packs?
 
It sounded like you did just about everything that could be done except for replacing other coil packs and checking your hoses. I've read several places that any type of vacuum leaks could also cause these types of problems. You should check the hose to your PCV valve, and probably also change the valve (anywhere from $1.50 to $5 so it's an inexpensive replacement). Please post any updates! Thanks and Happy New Year!
