    Stereo swap question

    Thanks Todd. I wasn't sure if the wiring was the same with the systems or not. The seat wiring wasn't. I put the leather heated seats in from the yellow ST and it was not the same. I thought that there may be an unused plug for the heaters ....not! All similar but not the same. Thank you...

    Stereo swap question

    I recently bought a 2003 ST that has a standard stock sound system. What I want to do is, transfer the premium Pioneer 6 CD system with the sub from my wrecked 2003 ST. What wiring problems am I going to run into? Thanks....Jim:banana:

    seat install

    Thanks Todd. I was hoping that would be the case. I have the service manual for the ST but will need the same for the 2003 sport so I can find where the wiring goes. Thanks again, Jim

    seat install

    Hello everyone, I have a question or two if I may. I have a 2003 explorer 2 door sport and my 2002 ST. Will my leather seats from the sport fit my ST? The cloth seats are showing a lot of wear lately. I also found another 2 door sport (2001) that has less than 100K. Maybe if not the ST possibly...

    CEL again???

    Thanks Todd. I think I have one of those pipe and elbow assemblies hanging in the garage. Why only after an extended idle period though. I'm curious.....Jim

    CEL again???

    Hi and thanks. I forgot to include the codes....duh!! I know better too. Lean banks, PO171/174. Usually a vacuum leak right? I erased the codes to see if I could establish a pattern. I realize that won't solve anything except showing me that the same thing is happening. .....Jim

    CEL again???

    Hi everyone. The CEL light has decided to visit again. i thought i had it beat after changing the T-stat problem but, after checking all the hoses and finding one un attatched. I put it back where it went and all was well for 600 some miles. Now (and it's happened twice)at an extended time at...

    A new problem

    Yep....I figure that I must have done something to cause this. I'll have to go back over my steps and hopefully correct the problem. Thanks,.....Jim

    A new problem

    I replaced the thermostat with no problems. A little tight working area but all in all not too bad. Thanks for the advice. Now it's throwing two codes. PO171 and PO174. Bank 1 and 2 are lean. Would that indicate a vacuum leak? Is there anything obvious to look for or perhaps re-do my assembly...

    Engine temp and CEL

    Thanks for the feed back. Replacing the T stat doesn't look like a big deal. I'll be very careful not to damage anything, if possible. I've read about the housing cracking but have been lucky so far. My ST has 205000 on it now so, it's done pretty good. Just a few minor problems. I'm so happy to...

    Engine temp and CEL

    Hello everyone. Yesterday the outside temps were around 45 degrees and I noticed my temp guage almost never got above the bottom line above the C mark. I did have some heat from the vents but not as hot as usual. I drive my 2002 ST about 100 miles a day and it never got any higher on the guage...

    air bag light

    Hi everyone, the air bag light on my '03 ST has been acting unusual for about two weeks now. It blinks 4 and then 2 a few times then stays on but if my wife is riding shotgun it doesn't happen. I fastened the right seat belt and drove to work. It didn't come on at all at first. Then it did it...

    Speed control help

    As usual, everyone on this site has been very helpful....again! Thank you all. This information will be helpful with fixing my problem I'm sure. I hope to be putting pictures of "my " new addition on here soon. I'm buying a orange 2004 adrenalin next week if all goes as planned. Thanks again...

    Speed control help

    Hello everyone....my speed control on my 2002 ST has been acting strange lately. Sometimes it functions as it should but lately, when I try to engage it for the highway the speed control light just blinks and won't engage. After a number of attempts it will finally come on and it works fine...

    Overhead console wrong temp.

    Thanks everyone. I found the sensor but, am having a time getting it out of the socket. I plan to try and clean the contacts and try it again. If that doesn't work, put a new sensor in. Jim:banana:

    Overhead console wrong temp.

    The overhead outside temp reading has gone nuts! It's in the 30's outside and my guage reads 69 degrees. I wish it were true but......Has anyone had this experience with this? The compass is right on but the temp reading baffles me. It worked fine until this week. Where is the sensor and where...

    Tag Lamps

    Thanks friends. I went out to the Trac and found the bulb sockets and replaced them both. I'm glad that is done, I didn't want an inspection ticket over tag lamps. While under ther I discovered that my spare is flat though......oh well....better now than when I might need it. Thanks again...

    Tag Lamps

    Last evening I noticed the tag lamps on the rear bumper were not working. After searching for some way to get to them with no success, I have decided to ask for suggestions here before breaking anything. Do the sockets unscrew? I appreciate any help. Thanks, Jim:banghead:

    4.0 engine noise

    Your responses tell me what I thought they would. I sort of expected it would be the timing chain guides. The noise is from up front so that isn't as involved as the rear one but with high mileage on this engine it's not a good investment to repair it. The rest of the Explorer is in great...
