Replying to: expo2 (Jul 20, 2007 10:56 pm) Mine is doing the same thing. It started after some heavy rains. After letting it dry out for a couple of weeks it stopped but now it still has a short that will drain the battery over a weeks time.

#3 of 122 2007 EB W/electrical problems by jyoz1 Sep 16, 2007 (4:46 am)
Judging from the amount of traffic on here I am not holding my breath, but I have had a 07 eddie bauer for about 1 month and a few very annoying electrical problems have been happening. First, A/c and fan cut out on a 100 degree day, turned the car off and on and problem fixed. Next driving home Fan goes from normal on to full blast and CAN NOT be shut off or adjusted. After 2 hrs of driving like this, get home and turn car off and on, problem solved. Next driving to town, and Power tailgate decided to open..very fun experience....then wouldn't stay shut..again,turn car on and then off, so far no more problems. The best problem has been the DVD player deciding when or when not to operate. We have a 4yr old, main reason we got the DVD,but it is as uncooperative as she is, and does what it wants when it wants....I do not have the time to be bringing this car in for service for every gremlin that appears, especially ones that are not major problems..Oh yeah, forgot to mention the time when I couldn't shift from Park to anything!! that was real fun...guess what??? Turn the car off and then on and Walla!!! problem solved!! Does anyone have similar experiences? I have searched TSB, recalls and this forum site extensively and have found nothing, Overall I really like this car (so far) my first new Ford....will it be my last?

Replying to: jyoz1 (Sep 16, 2007 4:46 am) I am having the same problem with A/C. It shuts off for no apparent reason. I live in Phoenix, so it's over 100 degrees. The A/C usually kicks back on but once when I went over a speed hump at about 20 MPH, it shut off completely. The only way to get it back on was to stop and restart the car. The fan does kick up to hurricane strength every once in a while too, which I can deal with. But I cannot have the AC shot off when it's 110 outside. Anyone heard of what might be causing this?
#5 of 122 Door Ajar, Check gas cap, A/C clanking in rear by mchllshby Oct 07, 2007 (3:48 pm)
I bought an 2003 Expidition Eddie bauer I worked fine in tell a week after we got it home. The doors say ajar so the interior lights, after a few minutes they turn off, and when we get out it does the same thing. so we have to wait to alarm the alarm system cause it wont tell the 3 minute delay goes off. 2 weeks later, now the gas cap light wont turn off in less I reset the message center. The A/C in the rear has a clanking noise, now if you turn the degree up to a 3 then it stops. Crazy things are happening to this machine, should I be worried? Should I take it to the dealer ASAP before it causes a major malfunction? HELP what should I do???

#8 of 122 CLIMATE CONTROL SEATS DONT WORK ON MY 2004 FORD EXPEDITION by repairs Mar 13, 2007 (11:30 am)
Replying to: mchllshby (Oct 07, 2007 3:48 pm) NEITHER THE DRIVER SEAT OR THE PASSENGER SEAT WILL HEAT OR COOL. THE LITE ON THE ON/OFF SWITH DOESN'T COME ON. I CHECKED THE FUSE AND IT GOOD. HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND FOUND THE FIX? Replies to this message: sbalogh (Oct 14, 2007 6:54 pm) bronsonb (Oct 19, 2007 1:48 pm) alas8313 (Dec 19, 2007 9:53 am)

Replying to: repairs (Mar 13, 2007 11:30 am) My driver's seat ac/heat is inop, too. Is access to the switch through the console box? I believe it is the switch...anyone had any experience? Replies to this message: bronsonb (Oct 19, 2007 1:48 pm)

Replying to: sbalogh (Oct 14, 2007 6:54 pm) I had to take a seat heater switch out once to clean around it. If I recall, to get the cover over the switch off, there's a screw under the front center of the console. Peel back that little rubber pad, and you'll see it. Unscrew that, then use a putty knife to pry the console cover loose.   It should come off relatively easily once you pop a couple of the connectors. Then the switch itself is held in by a screw. Unscrew it, and disconnect it. Then you should be able to get a replacement from Ford.   Good luck!
