2004 Power seat won't lower
I searched the forums for answers before posting this and found one thread about a power seat issue, but mine is a bit different. I got into the truck this morning and pushed the memory button like I always do. The seat made a very loud vibration, much louder than usual (almost sounded...- frenchqtrchef

No cold air
Truck is at the mechanic right now. The air stopped blowing cold this past weekend. He just informed me that there is a "bad connection at the plug in near the compressor". He says he is waiting on a call from Ford to find out if he can cut the bad part out and splice the new part in. Does...- frenchqtrchef

Strange electrical problems after hurricane
Here's an update. After haggling with the insurance company and not getting anywhere, my husband decided yesterday to work on it again. Once again he cleaned the battery terminals and everything associated with the battery and alternator, and he was able to get it started this time. He tested...- frenchqtrchef

Strange electrical problems after hurricane
Hi all. Fairly new here but I have posted once before. I live in New Orleans. Just went thru hurricane Isaac. My 2004 Expedition 5.4L EB, which I have had for six months, has worked fine up until the time the hurricane hit. Once the storm had passed, we got into it to drive around and get...- frenchqtrchef

A/C repair?
How much can I expect to pay a shop to replace my A/C compressor? The trusty mechanic we have used for years is giving me an estimate of around $1000. Just want to be sure that's on par. I have a 2004 Eddie Bauer 8 cyl 5.4L.- frenchqtrchef

New here; need help with a low idle issue
Well, I never did find out what the issue was, but it stopped doing it long enough to trade it in - on a newer Expedition!- frenchqtrchef

Wow, 05Bandit - that sounds like a simple and easy fix. I'm going to show this thread to my husband so he can try this if he hasn't already.- frenchqtrchef

New here; need help with a low idle issue
Callee11 - you are so right - every single time I bring it to the mechanic, it stops acting up. Every time. I had an appointment with him a couple of weeks ago and the night before, it started running right. It's very frustrating. markanthony - I will show my husband your reply...- frenchqtrchef

New here; need help with a low idle issue
5 months?? That's crazy! Husband replaced the battery, but it's still acting up. Now he thinks its the starter. Of course, that won't fix the low idle issue. I really love my Expedition, but there are so many little things that are starting to come up lately that it's probably time to get...- frenchqtrchef

New here; need help with a low idle issue
Had the alternator replaced in Feb of 2009; how long are they supposed to last? I'm not having the same symptoms I did when it went out the last time, but I'm sure that doesn't mean anything. My husband agreed that the alternator could be the problem. It just stumps me why the mechanic...- frenchqtrchef

New here; need help with a low idle issue
Unfortunately, cleaning the throttle body didn't work. My husband has mentioned bad coils, but says that half of them are hard to get to, and it's hard to tell which one(s) are bad? Seems like the mechanic would have been able to tell if that was the problem, though. Maybe I just need to...- frenchqtrchef

New here; need help with a low idle issue
Hello everyone. I just joined; I am having a problem with my truck and I'm looking for some opinions. I have a 2000 Exp 5.4L engine. When I start the truck, the RPMs immediately go down to around 400. I have to rev the engine up around 2000 RPMs for a few minutes, or else when I let off the...- frenchqtrchef
