SOURCE: how to replace the light bulb on exterior mirror 2003 ford expedition

The one with the turnsignal intergrated into it?

If so.....

Push the Mirror FORWARD, up close to the pivot poit there is a small torx head screw - unscrew that.
At the tapered end carefully pull/pry down. That end has a small metal spring clip that holds it up, be careful with it, if it snaps, you can NOT by a new one...

SOURCE: 2003 ford thunderbird how do you remove inner door panel?

You'll need to remove screws that are by the door handle, arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the panel as there will also be retaining clips attached and you don't want to break them. If needed, you can pull back the weather seal (can't reuse it, but it's not that important) and you will be able to access everything inside the door

SOURCE: how to remove front driver side door panel (2000 ford expedition)

There is a triangular piece, at top corner, covering a screw behind the mirror. Remove that screw. Remove the piece that covers the handle and remove the screw holding the handle to the door. Look through, where door handle was and remove another screw just above where the handle was. This screw is holding the panel to the actual door. Pop the cover off for the automatic door locks and disconnect them. Lift the panel in an upward direction.

2003 Ford Expedition 10800 miles. Drivers side window will not go all the way up. Only goes 1/3 the way up. Tried pushing it up then down by pushing the window control

Hi and welcome to fixya,


You'll need to have the door window aligned. There are cases where the teeth "moves forward" thus never really completing a complete close.

I recommend having it done in a repair shop unless you're familiar with how to remove the side panel. I tried it once and it ended up busting the finish.

Hope this helps
