    Thank you all for the suggestions. I have been gone but ready to keep looking into this issue tomorrow and through the weekend.

    2006 Expedition - Electrical Issue(s)

    2006 Driver's Side Mirror

    Yesterday another vehicle swerved into my lane and their mirror whacked my driver's side mirror. By the time I u-turned back to where it happened the other driver had disappeared. I picked up the pieces that had fallen off and went on my way. The two pieces I recovered were the mirror and a...
