#290 of 339 Re: Buying Advice - 2007 Sport Trac [kings11] by steven26 Oct 02, 2006 (5:24 pm)
Replying to: kings11 (Oct 01, 2006 8:06 pm) Scott, like I said i'm from Canada so I don't know if this will give you an idea or not for yourself but here goes. We just had the friends and family pricing for everyone up here that ended on August 31, I factory ordered on August 04th and received on Sept. 29. The factory sticker price was 45,054 loaded and I paid 40,230 minus another 500.00 for choosing another Ford product, like a loyalty type thing. Remember this is Canadian pricing so in greenbacks probably less in relative terms. Go to www.ford.ca to build the sport trac because our web site has all the latest colors and options available now to order and remember our options and your packages are different in the two countries, ie: power pedals are standard and yours are optional. I hope this helps you out, everyone at work today just loved the trucks color (Alloy) and Camel interior, nobody can believe its from Ford they've come along ways! Steve.

Replying to: kings11 (Sep 29, 2006 9:14 am) Hey Scott,   I just purchased my 07 beginning of June, I love it, it is the xlt, fully loaded sunroof, I put Nitto tires on it went to a 31.5 until they come out with a body or susp kit within 6 months or so...the msrp was 32,500 I paid 24k well worth it, I was looking the v8 but this thing has so much power and why spend the extra money?? XM radio is free for the 1st 6 months. I traded my 04 st for this one, it is so much more a better ride all around, going to Hatterass NC in a week or so to kick in the 4 wheel... can't wait...well hopefully you will find this useful and you will purchase one. I probably will post some pic's soon.   Take care,   Bill
#292 of 339 alarm on 2007 by vegashound Oct 20, 2006 (6:13 am)
I picked up my new Limited V-8 at the end of September (having traded in my 2003 Sport Trac) and really love it EXCEPT that the alarm goes off no matter what I do. I took it back to the dealer and the service person had no clue -- the manual that came with it only gave me enough info to put it into "valet mode" -- I'm afraid to even lock it since I leave for work at 6:00 a.m. and the alarm isn't going over well with my neighbors. The manual references a "cutoff" switch under the dash but I cannot find any such thing (the dealer also thought that the system couldn't be disconnected). Anyone else with this problem or an idea on how to disable this damned thing.
#293 of 339 Speakers, Pioneer AVIC-Z1 installation questions by fsmmcsi Oct 27, 2006 (6:48 pm)
If anyone needs help, I have the service manuals and wiring diagrams for the 2006 Explorer and Mountaineer.   As I posted on the regular Explorer forum, you will be amazed, even stunned by the difference made by replacing the factory speakers with good speakers. I just started the installation of my navigation and sound system by installing all four speakers. Even with going slow and a few interruptions for phone calls, it only took 2 hours.    I bought the Cerwin-Vega IT-683 speakers:    http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_286.html   Thanks ayarbo1 for the lead on that retailer.   I bought the AVIC-Z1, camera (on back order), Bluetooth unit, and XM & XM NavTraffic units from:   http://www.abesofmaine.com/   and the installation kit and adapters from Crutchfield.   You need to connect the AVIC-Z1 to the vehicle speed output from the computer, the back-up lights, and the parking brake. As far as I can tell, the only vehicle speed output from the computer is one wire which runs to the windshield wiper system. Is that the one everyone else used?   I have not yet decided where to mount the XM antenna and the GPS antenna. Where did you mount your antennas?

#294 of 339 2007 Sport Trac SPLASH GUARDS? by mustangguy74 Oct 29, 2006 (6:01 pm)
Has anyone found fitted splash guards for their 2007 Sport Trac? All I can find are the generic flat ones listed on fordaccessories.com. Winter's coming along with Ohio stone-chipped roads!

Replying to: fsmmcsi (Oct 27, 2006 6:48 pm) fsmmcsi, Yes the lead from the windshield wiper system is the correct lead for the Vehicle Speed Indicator. When you hook up your rear view camera, do NOT hook it up to the reverse(back -up) lights. Instead, hook it up to a +12volt ignition controlled lead, this will allow you to use the rear view camera when you are driving down the road. The AVIC-Z1 offers split screen which allows you to view the camera and view the navigation map at the same time. This comes in real handy when you are towing a trailer because you can always see it behind you. When you put the truck in reverse the Z1 automatically goes to full screen for the rear camera. Lastly, do no hook up the parking brake wire, this disables some of the functions that are available when driving. Go too www.AVIC411.com and look in the "Hacks/Mods" section for details on this, it's a must do because it enables several great features that would have been disabled any time the parking brake is not set (ie when driving). Hope this helps....
#296 of 339 Electrical Problems by jbodine Nov 11, 2006 (8:30 am)
Anyone else had electrical problems like this? Should I be concerned or is this not a big deal? Tire monitor fault warning, a/c out, tachometer and speedometer dash lights out, radio lights out, door ajar light stays lit, parking brake light stays lit, door locks unlock immediately after locking, no turn signal indicator on the inside, high beam indicator out, radio turns off immediatley when the key is turned off. This started yesterday at lunch. The truck is at the dealership now and I'm waiting to hear back from the service dept. V8 4WD Limited, 7500 miles.

Replying to: jbodine (Nov 11, 2006 8:30 am) Just heard that it's the junction box and has to be ordered. Said it could damage the transmission and short out the headlights if I continue driving as is.
#298 of 339 Re: Electrical Problems [jbodine] by ayarbo1 Nov 12, 2006 (7:32 am)
Replying to: jbodine (Nov 11, 2006 8:30 am) jbodine, I think this is an isolated incident. I actively participate on another Sport Trac forum and noone has ever reported this. Sorry to hear about the unfortunate incident, but don't let it get you down, it sounds like your truck just got a bad part out of the bunch, it happens...... The only significant issue has been a transmission shifting issue that is resolved with a PCM programming upgrade that the dealership will perform for FREE. This upgrade is needed for Sport Tracs manufactured before 5/4/2006, just ask your service advisor about TSB 06-13-1.

Replying to: ayarbo1 (Nov 12, 2006 7:32 am) Thanks for the info, ayarbo1. Would you mind sharing the info on how to join the other forum? Replies to this message: ayarbo1 (Nov 14, 2006 2:21 am)
