2001 expedition won't come out of park, unless I turn the key a little bit then put it in nuetral to start it. I have ready many of forums and it sounds like the shift solenoid but my windows and intereal lights don't work. If they don't work then it would be the gem modular, right?

Try the switch on the brake pedal bracket. When this switch gets bumped out of position by the drivers feet it causes difficulties. Check your under-dash fuse panel. Seen that many are bumped and window control relays are half hanging out of fuse panel.

You just need to change a fuse.

One of your power wires is grounding to something, whether through a switch or relay.

I had wires fuse together that had the same effect in a vehicle years ago. Constantly blew fuses and happened to find the 2 wires fused under the dash in the steering console.

This is probably not your problem but there are very few things that cause those fuses to blow that rapidly.

Electrical is difficult to troubleshoot over the net though. Find out what the fuse goes to and try to follow the wires from point A to B as much as you can. May be as simple as a wire that the insulation is rubbed off or cut at a point and touching the body.

A shift release solenoid is to blame causing this problem. It is shorted out and needs to be replaced

Check the #15 fuse in fusebox behind marked panel on left lower dash just below and left of steering column. This is only a 5 amp fuse but it controls a lot. This fixed our 2001 Expedition. 25 cents.

SOURCE: 2001 ford expedition windshild wipers dont work,

2001 ford expediton 1st the car would not start went online and read similar post so then i put the car in neutral and it worked. Now the car starts out of neutral but the windshield whippers dont work, the windows dont go down dont work, and the dome lights dont work. I checked all fuses and all seem fine. Is there another fuse that I may have overlooked or do all of these run of the same fuse. What fuse should I check where is the relay for this located what else should I try live in cali water is not the problem. Thanks

My suv won't shift gears what can i do?

if the shifter is moving then it is probably your trans. but if the shifter is not moving from the park possition (if it is an automatic) check to see if brake lights are coming on if not check fuse for brake lights,it also controls your shift lock.try turning key to possition before lights come on dash board and moving shifter into nuetral pos. then start car and put into gear give that a try, if it does the shift lock isn`t working.

CAnt get alarm off and can turn car on. Key won't start it help

forget the alarm bypass it. There is a way to defeat it but again lets just short cut it, go to the engine junction box there you will see a relay listed as starter relay open the cover using a small screw driver , get a assistant have them in the car able to turn the key on and step on thhe brake just in case the car starts in gear and runs you over. . here is the steps you have the relay cover out put it back in the socket have you assistant make sure the vehicle is in park not in any other gear or nuetral if its a stick shift. turn key on now you collapse the relay so it make contact and the starter will crank make sure key is on the engine will start make sure you have brake lights your good to go.
As for the permanant defeat those I do not answer so please dont ask

My 1997 Ford Expedition sometimes gets locked in park. the gears lock I can not get it out of park sometimes when it's running. Help !! My nephew says it's a sensor problem, and someone else...

Your vehicle has what's called a brake shift interlock which simply means you can't get it out of gear unless the brakes is pushed in. It is a safety feacture and it's a switch not a sensor. that is most likely going bad. There is a way you can bypass it when you are unable to get it into gear until you can get the switch replaced or whatever the problem is (guessing it's the switch though). Below is a picture to help you with this bypass procedure and unless you have a great memory I would print this out and keep it in the vehicle with you for when the problem does happen. here is the procedure: with the brake pedal depressed turn the key to the off position (3). Now apply the parking brake. Next turn the key to the lock position (2) and then remove the key. Now reinsert the key and turn it to the off position (3). At this point you should be able to put the vehicle in neutral and start the vehicle then. from nuetral you will be able to shift in all gears. I hope this helps and good luck.

Wont start in Park But will start in Nuetral

Neutral safety switch usually threaded into transmission, unless AW-4 model. Same switch used to trip back-up lights. Look for harness with approx 3-4 wires, unplug & unscrew switch from transmission.
