Prius (2004-09) :: Beeping With No Indicator Lights During Startup And After Driving For A While

I've been having an on going issue where my Pirus will start beeping but there is no indicator light I can see showing any kind of issue. It will start beeping during startup and after driving for a while, no exact time something like after 25~30 mins. It sounds like the seatbelt beep but louder and both will beep when my wife does not have hers on.

I replaced the Aux battery(was old needed to anyway) with a yellow top but that didn't fix it. And again there is no indicator on the dash or display showing issues no red or orange triangles. Checked the prius's diagnostics but no codes appear under the diagnosis check I or II, sycheck mode or LAN monitor.

Ford Excursion :: 2nd Row Seats Won't Lift Up

I bought a used 2001 Excursion. Neither of the middle row 60/40 bench seats will lift up.

The 60% (wider) bench seat lifted fine a week ago. Then I installed two car seats above them, drove it for a week, and when I took them out and tried to lift that bench seat, it seems stuck. I pull up on the lever, but the seat won't lift.

The previous owner re-upholstered the seats before I bought it, and there is no opening in the new upholstery for it even to latch into the base. So I'm very confused how it could be locked.

Similar story for the other 40% (smaller) seat. We actually just lifted this seat up and cut out holes in the new upholstery so that it could lock into the base. And when we finally pushed it down and heard it lock, after that we could not get it to lift. We pull the latch up and hear it unlock, and we can feel underneath that it is unlocked. Yet the seat will not lift.

I'm pulling with all my strength, but the seats are stuck.

Ford Excursion :: 2002 - Bad Velcro On 2nd Row Seats?

My 02 X limited has velcro to hold up the panels behind the 2nd row seats. It has been abused by a previous owner and will not keep the panels up. It makes the 3rd row unusable. Tried some new glue backed velcro but that lasted about 10 minutes.

Ford Excursion :: Battery Indicator Light Comes On?

My battery indicator light is doing weird stuff. I have a secondary volt gauge that shows good voltage throughout. Checked posts and connections tight. At idle the warning light is off. Under slow acceleration it starts to flash with the frequency increasing with greater acceleration until it finally goes solid with normal acceleration and highway speeds.

Ford Excursion :: No 4x4 - Indicator Light Comes On Briefly

2005 Excursion Limited 4x4. Will not go into 4 wheel drive. At initial key on the 4x4 indicator light comes on briefly. Tried manually locking the hubs, no 4x4. Tried swapping the underhood relays around, no 4x4.

Should I be looking for voltage at the transfer case 4x4 motor to determine if it is faulty when turning the in cab switch to 4x4? I'm thinking that would tell me the transfer case motor is shot, I think.

Ford Excursion :: White Smoke For A While After Startup

I've been googling for about 3 hours now, and no answers for the gassers, just diesels. When I start my excursion (v10) it pours white smoke for a while, then stops. It does this every time I start it no matter how far I go or how long it sits.

There is plenty of coolant in it and I've never had to top it off, so I don't think it is getting coolant in the cylinder. With that much smoke it wood definitely need coolant if that's what it was. Oil consumption is kind of high in my opinion, but the smoke smells rich.

Ford Excursion :: 2002 6.8L V10 - No Cruise Control / Indicator Light Comes On

I just bought my 2002 Excursion about a month ago, and the cruise control doesn't work. When I'm driving, I press "ON", then "SET", the CC indicator light comes on, but when I take my foot off the gas, it doesn't maintain speed.

I've done the self test, and all the lights blink once. Just to be sure, I've replaced the CC switch on the master cylinder, and the Brake switch mounted above the brake pedal. Still no joy.

Ford Excursion :: Clicking / Tapping Noises On Startup?

My v-10 was clicking after starting (not the manifold or loose plug) until I hit the gas and it would go away so I figured I would start with an oil change and a new filter. Since I would have to drive 55 miles for a Motorcraft filter I headed for the auto parts store. I noticed on the box it said it had an anti-drain-back valve in it for startup. After some research I discovered these modular engines require that to keep the oil in the top end for start ups..................problem solved.

Ford Excursion :: Transmission Shift Lever Indicator Not Being In Proper Position

I recently bought my first EX and I finally had enough of looking at this

The transmission shift lever indicator not being in the proper position needed to be fixed!

After some searching, I realized what the issue was and was quite surprised that the "fix" is replacing the entire shift lever indicator assembly. Seems overkill but right on par of with the way the world works nowadays.

The other solution I found was by a company called Dorman. They make a Shift Indicator Cable Bracket, which is the only part that was damaged in my case as you can see here. The white part pointed at by the arrow is supposed to be attached to the rest of the white plastic.

I looked around the garage thinking I need some glue. And something to reinforce the freshly glued parts. That should have been much more difficult as I don't regularly fix tiny plastic parts BUT I quickly came across this old external hard drive cover.

Broke some tabs off, trimmed them to size and poured glue all over the place.

This is what I ended up with.

Now my OCD can focus on something else

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: 2004 Excursion Gargling On Initial Startup

When I start my truck up initially and it's somewhat cold, like even if it hasn't run for just a few hours, it seems to gargle when I get on it. I'm not slamming it while it's cold but even just trying to accelerate. Code is egr flow insufficient, the truck isn't egr deleted, I've had it for 150,000 it's got 211 now. I just clean out the egr every 15-20k and it's been great until now. Once it warms up it sounds and runs perfect.

Ford - Ranger :: 1997 - Indicator Lights Stayed On After Key Was In Off Position

I went to start my 97 ranger this morning and when I turned the key I got the standard indicator lights. Then when I tried to start it there was nothing no click no crank just quiet. When I turn the key back the dash indicator lights stayed on even after the key was in the off position and removed from the switch. I tried it a few more times and the same thing happened. I had to disconnect the battery so the indicator lights, radio, etc. would not drain the battery.What do I need to repair this.

Ford Excursion :: 2001 - Fog Lights Quit Working With Parking Lights On

I have a 2001 Excursion, 6.8 V10, with the factory fog lights.

The fog lights worked fine, until a few days ago until they suddenly stopped working when just the parking lights are on.

I can still pull out the switch, the indicator light does not come on but the parking lights still work. When I turn it to the headlight position with the switch pulled out everything comes on and works like it should.

I tried checking the fuses but I didn't see one labeled in the manual for the fog lights so I don't know for sure which one to check. Could I possibly have a bad switch?
