    2000 expedition Rear glass will not latch

    Yes, exactly. Amazon sells the part that breaks on these cables, but it must be slightly modified to fit.

    2000 expedition Rear glass will not latch

    I did after putting glass down and I took the inside panel off. It latched. I think maybe it's the link that's worn out. I replaced the one for the tailgate latch, but not the glass latch.

    2000 expedition Rear glass will not latch

    I replaced lower latch cable 3 years ago, but not the upper one. Today my wife tried latching the rear glass and it just popped off. Is there a way to latch it from the inside, or do I need a new latch? UPDATE - I played with the latch and latch cable from the inside and it did latch. So...

    Electrical Gremlins

    I was going to suggest ground. Also, it is known that a windshield leak corrodes the chassis electronic module located on the left side in driver's foot well. Check that first.

    How complete of a coolant flush is needed?

    How complete of a coolant flush is needed?

    I did just the rear heater core flush on mine last Sunday using a 3-gallon bucket. Took 18 gallons and only the last bucket was free of rust. I ended up pinching the garden hose and releasing the pulse of water after my 3rd bucket was clear. Took additional 2 buckets to clear. And that's every...

    Is this an oil or water filter? I mean I know what its doing, but is it manufactured to filter water or oil?
