I think I had a similar issue and it was the connector that come loose under the seat. If that's not it then maybe it's the motor.

Good question, and although I don't have an answer curious minds want to know... I've daydreamed about putting a 5.0 in my 2007 STrac but see a few major obstacles areas in any type of engine swap nowadays. After the mechanical part (alignment, transmission mount, driveshaft) I would think...

Does lifting it by the rear axle housing have anything to do with it (noticed the jack in the picture)

Also, check for a leak around the high mounted 3rd brake light. Mine leaked onto my headliner causing a smell.

its on the drivers side way up above the transmission, forward of the shifting linkage. It might be possible to access the coils and box by pulling the fan motor; at least according to the ford repair manual.

You could probably get one from Left Handed Utes i Denver: www.lefthandutes.com/ Not that I have done it though. Nice looking, GM related though.

Not as hard as I thought it would be. Running a wire from the door to the body for the constant 12v is the hardest part. This is needed b/c the motor has a 'memory' of the limits. For the actual power for made this easy. There are a few unused connectors under the dash that actually have...

There are a few in Orlando area junkyards. East (Bithlo) and Pull-n-pay by the airport. I've never had luck with Gen 2 parts with Car-part. Seems they don't have the part when I call.

I figured it out. It was actually the switch. Not sure what was wrong with it but swapping it out did the trick.

Does anyone have the initialization procedure for a 2010 Explorer? I am attempting to add auto up to a 2007 Sport Trac by using a LH motor for a 2010 and modifying all the wiring to match. It works, except the auto part. What I can't get is the initialization procedure. There are at least...

I had a similar issue and found some professional leather spray paint at a local auto paint store (not Autozone). I took in my interior trim code (TC camel) and got a perfect match.To make it stick I used leather/vinyl cleaner (spray can as well) and followed the instructions. This also works on...

Ford has abandoned the small truck market in the US and given it over to Toyota & Nissan, for reasons I'll never understand. They removed the Ranger from the US like it was illegal to sell it here (maybe it's the Chicken Tax?). With Honda bringing back a new Ridgeline, a Hyundai truck and...

The problem might be finding a manual dim that will fit the mount. However, to add one that has more options, I find that most of the differences are in the the wiring (except OnStar, that one is real different) since the vast majority of electronic mirrors are made by Gentex including those...

What year is this for?

I noticed this STA being auctioned off. Not a lot left of it though. (edit; link fixed) [Broken External Image]:
