I have the same problem with my 2003 expedition
Nomech from United States 2 years ago
Have you figured it out?
Nomech from United States 2 years ago
Did you find the problem? I put a knife switch and shut it off when not in use. Put a trickle charger on. I think it is relay 401. Autozone didn't have the right replacement. I have a 2003 Toyota Camry that has only 110000 on it. I alternate between the two. I wish I knew the real solution.

My power windows, radio, dash instruments all stopped. After a few days, I started it up..and everything powered up and has stayed up. What caused the temporary failure?

I wish someone who has experienced this problem would help. I can't be the only one.

Hi it's fuse your fuse #14. I have a process I just completed the process of getting it fixed and problem with the fuse blowing out was the exterior board lights. I can walk you through if you haven't figured it out
Nomech from United States 2 years ago
R U referring to the lights below the mirrors? I don't think this 04 has running board lights. One time windows, dash, radio quit..a few days later everything started working and gas worked since.

Ya the step to get in has lights on the outside. I unplugged all 4 of them. From there i went into the engine fuse box and unplugged all related fuses which was #601, 12, 15. From there I got in the passenger side and reached under the driver fuse box and replaced the #14. Fuse didn't blow awesome. Go out and plug in all the engine fuse box fuses I took out and everything was great. Problem was a short in the board lights on the step up and the wiring needed to be replaced. Without having the board lights in I haven't had an issue

@DaManchaBy board lights this is what I mean

@DaManchaOK.
That sounds good. When I get things done at home I'll get back to that.
DaMancha from United States 2 years ago
@NomechSounds good man. I'll keep a look out if you need help. Took me a bit to figure all that out but follow it exactly how I said I tried it all kinds of ways and that one worked.
Nomech from United States 2 years ago
@DaManchaThanks. I appreciate your help.
Nomech from United States 2 years ago
Thank you. Sounds like you really have the answer. Thank you. As stated, I have other things on my mind right now. I love that truck. Used to be in the Heating Oil biz up North, had CDL-A, Hazmat, Air brakes.

After a week..I got into my truck, turned the key and EVERYTHING WORKED AND HAS BEEN WORKING. DO YOU ALL THINK IT COULD BE THE 401 RELAY IN THE FUSEBOX?
Nomech from United States 2 years ago
I still haven't solved my problem with no windows, no gauges, no radio. Got a Chiltons manual, no real hints. I put in a knife switch on the battery. When I want to use it..I close knife switch and it runs great. Still no real idea what the problem is.
Nomech from United States 2 years ago
I still need help with this problem.

2003 Ford Expedition XLT won’t start

Ford Expedition 2003 Xlt 290000 miles
My 2003 Ford Expedition XLT turns on electrically — the lights, radio, and air conditioning all come on — but the engine won’t start. At first, I thought it was a dead battery, so I replaced it with a new one. However, the issue remains. What could be causing this problem? Could it be the starter, ignition switch, fuse, or something else?
