#123 of 151 Replacing Instrument cluster by airconman Dec 07, 2009 (7:36 pm)
The instrument cluster on my 97 Exp needs replacing. Gauges (Oil, eng temp, Battery) have all gone haywire. This was a result of an alternator going out. Ford wants $1200 to replace the cluster. I found a cluster on the net for $130, but I have no idea how complicated it is to do the replacement. Has anyone done a replacement before and can tell me how involved it is and what to expect? Thanks
#124 of 151 #4 Cylinder MissFire by disvnvet Dec 15, 2009 (8:19 am)
Replaced the alternator a few days ago.   Yesterday the check engine light came on and idle went to crap.   Ran OBD11 tests and have #4 MissFire.   Cleaned Coil Ignitors and check wires.   Can the MissFire be related to Alternator?   If not, what is the probable cause?

Replying to: disvnvet (Dec 15, 2009 8:19 am) I have a 06 Expedition that I replaced the alternator on but I still continued to have the check engine lilght come. The dealer ran a diagnostic check and said their was a problem with the alternator. They also said that the computer has to be reset after replacing the alternator. They wanted to replace the alternator but I had them recalibrate the comptuter and the problem went away. Replies to this message: disvnvet (Dec 18, 2009 9:08 am)

Replying to: dlagrimini (Dec 15, 2009 8:47 am) Interesting!! In this case however, the check engine light came on two days after the alternator was replaced.   I will be troubleshooting tomorrow. In my research I did find an interesting fact. To rule out the coil ignitor, I can swap the positions. If the miss-fire swaps then it indicated the coil ignitor.
#127 of 151 Fuel Ckt Hight code P0232 by jerome29 Dec 24, 2009 (8:40 am)
I recently changed my heater core on my 00 ford expedition xlt. after the dash was reinstalled and everything hooked up my truck wouldnt start. when I turn the ignition to start the interior lights flash off and nothing happens. there is a 10 amp fuse in the fuse dist box under the hood that keeps blowing when I change it. Im not sure where to look for the problem if its a shorted wire or something in the fuel ckt that needs to be reset or something. PLEASE HELP
#128 of 151 2005 Ford Expedition Won't Start After Rain by wmvickers Dec 29, 2009 (8:49 am)
My wife has a 05 Expedition. Occasionally it will not start during or after it rains. I have to jump the vehicle off and it cranks with no problem. The vehicle has exhibited this problem after being parked in the open and under the carport. I may have to jump it off in the morning and it then it cranks fine for weeks. On other occasions the vehicle cranks and she parks it at a store comes back out and it fails to crank. The only constant seems to be rain or high humidity. The battery tests good and no other electrical issues are noted. Has anyone had a similar situation and what was the fix. Thanks!

Replying to: nautilisx (Sep 24, 2009 12:35 pm) i have a 2004 Expedition - same problems *posted to site over a year ago* Dealer ran through over $2400.00 replaced alt, battry, gems - still not fixed. I quit taking it to dealer. As long as I roll the interior light dial to off - no more problems. Please post if you figure this one out!!

#131 of 151 2004 Eddie Bauer Expedition - Electrical Gremlins by jaxyjen Jan 06, 2010 (11:14 am)
I see many of the same issues and no too seem to have the same resolution....Has anyone tired a "superchip"? I know these are for reprogramming and getting better horsepower/gas mileage - but will it "re-align" electric programming too??
