#63 of 74 running board by courage2 Sep 05, 2009 (1:56 pm)
Right side running board motor doesn't bring it up as it is supposed to. Dealer tells me that the motors are no longer available and that to fix it, I must buy the whole running board assembly with motor $1600 ... Any ideas on finding a motor?   Dale
#64 of 74 Instrument panel lights by mikebass Sep 26, 2009 (6:55 am)
I own a 2002 Mercury Mountaineer V8 and my Instrument panel lights dont work but all the other lights work like AC control, window buttons etc, and it keeps blowing the fuse they will stay on for a few seconds and then the fuse blows, It started when I towed my trailer that I had towed many other times with no problems. If anyone has any Ideas please let me know. Thank You!! Replies to this message: rodandkyn (Sep 28, 2009 6:18 am) mikebass (Sep 28, 2009 7:10 am)

Replying to: mikebass (Sep 26, 2009 6:55 am) Does the fuse ONLY blow when the trailer is connected? If so, the trailer connector may have a loose or fraid wire shorting to ground. If not, perhaps the trailer plug receiver on your car now has a fraid or loose wire due to plugging/unplugging. Replies to this message: mikebass (Sep 28, 2009 7:10 am)

Spark any other ideas? thanks for taking the time to reply.

Replying to: mtnman1 (Feb 08, 2009 2:32 pm) I have an 04 Mountaineer, had the same problem with the loud bang when I backed out of the garage. I then went down the block and the upon accelerating at a stop sign the flront end shudder. It acted like it was stuck in a gear and I had to have it towed to the dealer. The dealer can't reproduce it, I went to the dealer and can't get it to happen. An online expert service said TSB 08-21-11 about tires. I did have another tire company replace the tires about 4 months ago, and they are not nobby tires and have a realy nice ride .
#68 of 74 Binding noise when turning by sacowboy Oct 29, 2009 (7:14 am)
I have a 2002, V8. Whenever I turn the steering wheel in either direction you can see, hear & feel a noise almost as if something is binding up or rubbing. My guess it is coming from the rear drive line somewhere. Although you can feel it through the steering wheel, it doesn't really feel like a problem directly related to steering. It doesn't make the noise when going straight or turning at a higher speed. Anyone out there have a similiar problem or know what the cause might be?
#69 of 74 hot restart problem by allen34 Nov 22, 2009 (8:54 am)
2000 Mountaineer, 5.0L, developed hot restart problem, air in the fuel line, possible PRV failure, Ford says the PRV comes with the fuel pump. that makes it expensive. is this correct? Replies to this message: walterd (Nov 22, 2009 1:58 pm)

Replying to: allen34 (Nov 22, 2009 8:54 am) Fuel pressure regulator does not come with a fuel pump. It sits on the top of the fuel rail above the lower intake manifold near the rear firewall. It has a vaccum line attached to it.   When you hook up a fuel pressure gauge to the fuel rail. you can read pressure. when you disconnect the vacuum line to the regulator the pressure should drop.   The regulator is held on with two bolts and costs less than 30 dollars. kind of hard to get to. but if you crawl in and lay on top of the engine it is accessible
