You need to check the plug that goes into the alternator to see if it's tight fitting next the brushes inside the alternator have a wear indicator that is a hole in the center it is also used to set them in place with a pin that could be the flickering cause the brushes are solid till they get to the opening so when the alternator is running there's always a break in contact because of the hole so it makes and breaks contact causing the flickering and the charging level is ok but when a lot of accessories are on it can't keep up the charging voltages so the battery gradually goes dead losing power also another spot to look is the power distribution box cable it co u ld be loose and dirty and corroded

Yes under the hood.

I had the same problem in my E4 50 super duty box truck. I replace all the wire harness on the IPC blah blah blah all those sensors and still have the same issue. Diesel engine produces more power when more diesel fuel is introduced into the combustion chamber by the injectors. So given that, I ended up replacing all the injectors with factoring Motorcraft OEM injectors and that solved all the problems.

There is a rubber vacuum elbow behind the intake plenum of the engine. After awhile, the rubber vacuum boot tends to collapse on itself (cavitates) and makes weird funny noises at idle when engine vacuum is the greatest. But you won't hear it when yo begin to accelerate. Common problem with these vacuum hoses. Verify that the hose is the problem and the dealership carries plenty of these replacements.

I have been told there are 5 different possible codes, but I can't imagine there are only 5 since thieves could try all 5 until they get the right one... If you have gotten into your vehicle by now, (you posted this in February 19th), then you can find the code on the excursion behind the passenger kick panel and if it isn't there, check to the left of the brake pedal. In either location, the 5 digit code is written in small print under the bar code.

You will need a multimeter. You have to do a voltage drop test across the two large terminals. Set your meter to DC voltage range and put one lead one one terminal and one lead on the other terminal. With the key off the meter should read approximately 12 volts. This tells you there is voltage present. When you turn the key to the on position you should here the relay click and your reading should drop to zero volts indicating the voltage is passing through the relay. If you here the click and the meter still shows voltage then the internal contact plate has burnt not making a proper contact and will require replacement.

Swap the relay out with another one and see if the problem is still there or if it has gone away. If the problem has gone away the relay is bad.

Hello, There are a number of reasons that may cause your A/C to blow hot air. The compressor belt could be loose or broken, the A/C system could be low on freon, the A/C compressor clutch could be defective or the fuse could be blown, or the A/C mixing door could be stuck open just to name a few.

Negatives are black all the time, positive red and grounds are green and yellow! Good luck!

The fuel shutoff, or Inertia Switch, should be located behind the passenger side front kick panel. It is simply a button, that you push to reset, and get the fuel pump pumping fuel again. If it is not there, get back with me immediately and I will find out exactly where it is. All my information at this time indicates it is behind the kick panel.

Fuse box panel is located below dash. Unlock screws located under dash and on each side of steering column. This will give access to fuse panel

Unhook batteries and leave unhooked for at least 1 hour or overnight if possible. When you hook the batteries back up your climate control should have power.
