2003 E250 no dash lights
fuses should be under the dash at drivers side if can't find it let me know and i will give you better advise but they should be behind a plastic cover also many early models have the fuse boxes in the engine compartment and the other day i went to fix a expedition since i'm a mobile mechanic and the fuses where behind the kick panel on the passenger side
Service Engine Soon light came on
This means it's time for a service..But have it diagnosed with a computer and maybe sometimes resetting it solves this problem.If the light comes back again then you need a servicing of the engine.
I have a 2003 Ford
P0106 - "PCM determined that input from the
manifold absolute pressure sensor or the barometric pressure sensor has
changed too much, without a corresponding change in engine operating
conditions."
- P0106 is the code for Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor BARO sensor range/performance. Most likely you need to replace the Air Charge Temperature Sensor. The air charge temperature sensor measures the engines ambient air temperature and reports to the on-board computer. When not replaced, vehicle may experience CEL illumination,
failed emissions test, rich or lean running condition and/or excessive
fuel consumption.
- If you already replaced the Air Charge Temperature Sensor and the problem still exists, you may have a faulty Mass Air Flow Sensor.
- P0106 is also caused by a vacuum leak. Check your Vacuum hoses connect to the Intake Manifold and make sure none are cracked, broken, loose, disconnected, etc. Replace any that are found to be faulty. Check for leaks with a spray bottle and some water, look for bubbles.

My air only comes out
You have a vacuum leak and since the air diverter is vacuum acutated, it isn't moving. Check for a vacuum tank under the hood. The ventilation system is usually powered by vacuum provided by a tank. The tank commonly looks like a plastic ball. If a vacuum line is missing from the tank or if a line is cracked, the vacuum wont store in the tank. Likewise if the tank has a crack, you'll end up with the same symptom.

2003 E250 Would like to replace original basic
There are 2 holes on each side of the face of the factory radio. Special U-shaped rods slide into the holes to unlock the clips and pull it out. You can buy them from a parts store for a few bucks or use a metal coat hanger and make them yourself (all they do is push straight in the holes). To install a (JVC) radio, you can buy an adapter plug from a car stereo shop or best-buy that connects to the factory harness.
Where is the block heater
IF it has one, its located at one of the freeze plugs on a side of the engine. So you will need to first verify IF it even has one, and then if it does, follow the wires, till you find the plug.
I found a little yellow piece with o ring in oil
dont worry about that it is just a plug that is in the dipstick tube from factory. When they put the dipstick in it falls out and stays in the pan until you get a tranny service and change your fluid and filter
I keep getting a check engine soon light. I have
I was wondering if you scanned this vehicle or guessed on which parts to replace? You can get a free scan at Autozone or Oreillys. Even if you have an basic scanner, there are some scanners that Autozone and repair shops use which list ALL the potential problems starting with the most likely.
There should be a MAF sensor on the Air intake bonnet. It can be cleaned with Electrical spray, but not a solvent liike Choke or Brake cleaner. If that does not help try misting the gaskets on the Intake manifold and Airhorn with a water spray bottle. Do this with the engine running or even use Choke cleaner. Either way, the RPM will change if you find a leak. Since your "Check Light" is on anyway, it would not hurt to plug the Vacuum line to the EGR valve and see if the hesitation stops when you accelerate.
Then check the EGR for a bad diaphram if the motor runs better without it. The scan at Autozone should show the mechanical defects, but it will not show bad gas. You might as well change the fuel filter and do a gas sample at the same time. A lot of people have put a ton of money into their vehicles only to find they didn't need to.
It won't cost you much to try what I suggested, and I think you have already replaced the most popular parts. Would be curious to know what you found out about your vehicle.
