    Fog light conversion

    I want to install amber fog lights on my 2002, for like, actual fog days. I have bought some lights. Is there a wiring diagram for the existing connectors? Where can they be found more or less? How are they turned on/off: Is there also an optional fog light switch, or do they act like running...

    LED swap interior dome lights WIP

    I did the same for the trunk dome light. I have not figured out how to pull out the teardrop 2nd row vanity lights. They look very fragile when I pull, and clamped hard to the roof. Help on that would be welcome. Last vanity modification planned: replace the CD changer with another cigarette...

    LED swap interior dome lights WIP

    I popped the center dome (remove one screw in the glasses compartment, and gently pull down), spliced some wires and installed an LED harness and clipped in the LEDs. When you look at the harness there's one black wire coming to the lights directly from the wire connector, the others come from...

    Spark plug Helicoil?

    That's good to hear. He seemed to indicate it was fixed later - around 2005 -. I find it's super important to know the quirks of an older vehicle you own to not end up in purgatory.

    Spark plug Helicoil?

    A friend told me spark plugs like to blow in 5.4L engines around 180K because there's like 3 turns of threads to hold them. He then recommended to helicoil them before they blow, as it is a solid fix, and when they blow they take some of the metal with them so a helicoil fix becomes more iffy...

    Alarm/Keyless Lock System Module

    Hmmm if I can find that box quickly at the junk yard, maybe I can crack it open and confirm if it has an antenna. One more thing to add to the list.

    Alarm/Keyless Lock System Module

    I can't program new remotes to my 2002 Ford Expedition. I tried to program in a friend's Eddie Bauer remote and it failed too. Hence I suspect it's the car's receiver or something. I don't know where to find reference material to understand how stuff works for the Ford. I came across this...

    Name/Part number for this sensor on master break cylinder

    Can someone ID this sensor so I can look for the part and get a new one? Also do you know how to remove it without breaking anything, and will the break fluid spill out? I am trying to troubleshoot my cruise control not engaging. In some post, someone mentioned this 2A fuse as being a...

    Manually disabling interior lights on 2002/Gen1?

    Interior lights diagram... Running board can be disabled by fuse 15. They're not really useful. Lights are controlled by GEM which controls 2 relays. There are relays, and the diagram shows a main light switch that cuts the ground on the interior lamp relay...

    IS Gen'1 XLT wired for a sub?

    Often the wiring harness is shared by all models. I was wondering if by chance there was wiring for the sub since the Eddie Bauer has one.

    ATOTO A6PF android head unit and CA-AEC01 amplifier

    I just swapped the premium speakers with infinity kappa perfect 6.5 and wow it slaps :) Goes down to 35Hz. It doesn't have the kick of a dedicated sub, but it's enough I need to find what in the door resonates at 50-60hz when I crank the volume.

    Remote Receiver Antenna location?

    Oh thank you about the cruise control and rust. :) For the rust I was thinking wire brush, rust stop and maybe tooldip as a temporary layer instead of repaint. Also I'm thinking of getting 2 more roof rack rails for when I put heavier or weirder loads on the roof. The wire harness looks fine...
