- 2002 XLS
I have a 2002 explorer xls and need some pro lens addressed and questions answered.
1) power locks work with both the switch and keyless remote except the drivers front door. Will not do anything. Only way to lock or unlock it is with the key from the outside or from manually pushing the lever from the inside.
2) both the heat and A/C work great as does the blower but at different temperature settings, it makes either a clicking noise, banging noise or both. It will even make the noises when the blower is off and I'm just turning the wheel for the temp. As the blowers is turned up higher, the noises become faster paced. I've owned the ex for about 6 months now but this issue just started recently. Once again, the temperature being blown out is not affected by these noises and at some settings the noises are non existent.
3) being an xls, it has just the front and rear cloth seats and the fronts do not have a desperate/adjustable head rest. What are my options for swapping in different seats? Ideally I would like leather with an adjustable head rest. Is it a direct bolt in, no modification swap if I use seats from another ex? Only certain years? Mountaineer seats compatible? Also, any way to put in the 3rd row seats? I currently have the basic 2 storage compartments in the back now.
4) both rear windows don't work. I'm assuming it's the regulator. Is there a specific brand or model I should or shouldn't use as a replacement? Is my best bet to just go with OEM from Ford?
5)after replacing the regulators in the rear windows, i came across another problem which was the rear passenger side window doesnt go down with the switch on the drivers side front door but will with the switch on the door itself. the window WILL go up though with the master driver door switch. the only issue is going down. everything else on that master switch works from locking the windows to the up and down of the other windows and locking the doors. i dont know if i should replace the whole switch or not. any ideas would be great.
thanks in advance
