Almost 10 year old thread, but still no answer to what that blue thingy is called. I replaced my mfs today and when reinstalling the column cover I noticed that thing hanging by its wire. I put it where it looked like it fit and closed it up. Now I have the chime with key out, lights off and...

NICE! Post some pics with a link to your new thread.

You could clear anodize it. They have home kits or pro shops. You can even do colors. There can't be any steel in your piece however. It provides a penetrating protection.

I don't have these yet, but look interesting for my 97 Sport. Frame mounted instead of body mounted for my fatso self. They have a stainless version as well.

Let her LIVE!!! Future classic there!

I found this site. Apparently states report info to them and then other approved data suppliers resell the info. I'm not sure another Carfax type report will give me any additional info. I'm wondering if the dealership in PA where the recalls were done, where it may have been originally sold...

Maybe. There isn't any info anywhere after 8/01. I am wondering if the title change in 0/1 was a lien change and the owner stayed the same? Thinking the car was stolen by joyriders. Found a mess with some body and mechanical damage. Insurance paid off loan, owner repairs car, brings into...

Ah. So that's the harness for the speed control. That recall is still open on my truck. I'm hoping the Biner guys are good. They seem to be. Would be good to document the fix. Maybe when I'm there, they can dig a little deeper into my trucks history. I need a good dealership.

Hey Larry, I hope the dealership does right and fixes it. Maybe it's just a programming thing. That girl sounds sweet with such low mileage and that 01 Sport bodystyle. She sure must be pretty! I have a 97 Sport I'm currently in love with!

I will. I'm also thinking about an Accupressure pre-oiler, but that is for another thread.

Well lookie here! I went to the dealer to see about the reimbursement for the A- pillar repair on my Wife's '19 and got to talking. They were nice enough to print out what they had. Looks like the big recalls and customer satisfaction program repairs were done! If anyone here has a familiarity...

I always blame myself. Go over what you did. Vacuum leak?

Hi, Can I use a code if I come to the shop to buy the parts at the counter?

Cool! Let's see some pic's!

This guy calls it Oasis in a post from '05. Dead link of course.

Hi Fix4Dirt! I went and paid for the Carfax. Interesting to look at the history of my girl. It shows me as the 2nd owner. I don't know about that. Shows shipped to dealer in 6/97. Titled in 9/97, then reported stolen 12/99 then a title change (ownership change?) in 1/01 and an emissions test in...

Thanks J_C! I am gaining a greater understanding every day. As a State Certified Electrician, I do have an understanding of the limitations of electrical systems. I did replace the steering wheel switches, but never use them. I have an unreasonable emotional attachment to this truck. I am just...

Just shows 1 open recall. The buttons on the steering wheel were melted when I got the truck. Is this related? I will bring her in. I've been jumping around dealerships for years where I am. Deblasi Ford, Tower Ford, gone. Biener Ford newer. Maybe I should take a ride out to Levittown Ford. I...

Apparently the timing issues are part of the "Owner notification program" and not a recall and long ago expired. I understand that and am not trying to get anything for free from Ford. After realizing that a rattle I had heard in my truck was primarily from a worn out belt tensioner, I have a...

Is that the plug you are talking about clipped to the sensor/switch that is red? What was that recall about? Much more important to stop than it is to go!

Where is this harness? I think that is still an open recall on my truck.

I'm going to check the carfax next.

Wow! That is alot of info! Couldn't find the timing stuff though. Do you know where that would be? TM0012 I think I have read here on the forum. Maybe it is not considered a safety issue?

Yes, SOHC 4.0. I believe all Sports came with one. First year. Would a dealer in receipt of a trade in resell a vehicle with an open recall or would they address it? I believe I can take off the front engine cover to see if it has the updated cassettes (different color from my reading) but I'd...
