Cranks but why doesn't it start until afer two or three tries?
Faulty fuel pump return valve causing fuel to drain back to fuel tank , connect a inline fuel pressure gauge start engine , note pressure stop engine pressure could drop a few psi then hold , if pressure drops close to zero replace valve or pump .
Mirrors on 2004 Lincoln navigator won't fold in.
The mirror fold feature on the Navigator is known to be a flaky design. If someone manually folds a mirror then the entire systems gets confused and will not work. There is a procedure in the service manual to synchronize the mirrors but I have never been able to get it to work.
Further adding to the problem is that the assembly is not serviceable. You have to replace the mirror and many sellers will not guarantee the fold feature to work.

First, check the bulb if they are busted. Next is to check the fuse box and locate fuse for either stop lamp, brake light or other label that pertain to stop lamp, they may be busted too. Then, check also the wire connected on the brake light switch. It could be worn out already.

There are scanners which have a function to diagnose the air-ride system. It will take a more expensive scanner that has this function to do the job. Since some electrical shops charge by the hour, a scanner pin pointing the problem in minutes will save you money. Replacing the correct part will also save money instead of financing trial and error parts buying.
Some of the system is activated by the opening and closing of your doors. Parking slope also activates the system to level. The master dump valve for maintaining pressure is located around the bottom front of the front wheel well.
While the air system is expensive, overall replacing one component is a lesser expense. If you did not have air ride the vehicle would handle differently. You get what you pay for and maintenance is a cost other people do not pay with plain steel springs.
Take your vehicle to someone who has a compatible scanner to read your air ride.

Navigator the air suspension
typical dealers response
indicates that there is a faulty non-return valve in the system that is passing air when sitting and allow air in and out when compressing
I would start by checking the valves at the discharge line at the compressor, working to the air reservoir valves then onto ride height control valves finishing with holes in the air suspension bags them selves
yes it work doing the checking but there is no real expense until you find the faulty part and I am sure that it will be less than the quote
