I just read the post at sparkys that you linked to and I commented on his site. He has done a nice job on the couple of posts that I read. They are specific, and not as instructional as I would like; however it would make sense to test the windows as he suggested, just to see if it points to a faulty GEM. It should take only a couple of minutes to do so. In one respect I hope that it is your GEM and $200 later you are done. OTOH, I hope that...

My rear windshield wiper is not working. What is the fix?

Thanks for the input. With the sheer amount of blowing snow the night we stuck it I'm amazed is stayed running the 13 hours we were stuck. I will check the range sensor also, can't hurt! The chief thing I was looking for was 1. Is there the need to have the GEM flashed prior or after installation with some sort of Ford firmware, or does it have onboard mapping present ? I've read about the windshield leaks affecting the GEM and...

Hello I will be changing the spark plugs and plug wires soon, should I stick with motorcraft parts?

I apologize for the "no-crank" vs "no-start" terminology error I made - I was quite in a hurry when I wrote it. I had my fiance replace the starter solenoid switch/relay mounted on the passenger's side firewall behind the battery under the black plastic splash-guard and that solved the intermittent no-crank issue. So issue (1) is fixed as far as I'm concerned. Prior to replacing it this morning we...

Could be a fuse, the switch, GEM, wiper motor, wiring...the list goes on. You need to have it scanned for codes to rule out the GEM, not all code readers can perform the task. It needs to read the body computer for "B" codes.

I also replaced the rear air spring/bags with a conventional coil spring and have had no problems at all with towing and I tow a 30' camper, It was very easy to do as long as you have a floor jack that raise the truck high enough. the front has not caused me any problems but when the weather gets better i will change them also and no more air. good luck

I have a 2003 Ford Expedition, my turn signal won't work. my emergency flashers work fine. they did come back on, once. Also, my rear blower for the air conditioner isn't working. The front air conditioning works fine, but I'm not getting any air from the rear seat. Could these be related? Any help would be appreciated!!
