If the battery is fully charged, the headlights come on, etc,,,the alternator is working, as it was charging the battery the last time it was running, so I would see it as more of a starter/security issue........but becasue the radio is not coming on, I would seriously look at both the engine fusebox and interior fusebox for any issues that might be there......

Definetly sounds like an electrical problem, though

When I turn off the ignition the radio, air and lights stay on. This is running my battery down. IS there a short somewhere or what might be the problem?

The 2000 Fords should allow the radio to continue to play until you open the driver's door. The lights may stay on for 1 or 2 minutes after you leave the car (close the driver's door) depending on the lighting/security feature of your vehicle.

Your battery should be strong enough to allow these items to remain on for several minutes. If the battery weakens that quickly, you need a new battery or you need to have your charging system inspected.

When your battery light comes on it is telling you that your ALTERNATOR is not charging your battery! So you need to replace the alternator.

You can verify that it is bad by taking the car or just the alternator to an auto parts store and having them test it for you for free.

I have a 2000 ford expedition that fell dead at the light and will not start. car will not start. already changed battery. fully charged

You must verify the main power cables to ground( -) and another to fuse box. If the lights not work, after you changed the battery and doesn't light anything in control panel( board), one of that cable is
interrupted.

I have a 2000 Ford Expedition. The battery was

Hi:
The battery light is telling you that you are running off the battery,and you have a problem with your charging system. An easy way to check your alternator is to get a volt meter, and measure the voltage of your fully charged battery. with your expedition not running, it should read about 12.6 volts. When you start your expedition, it should read approx 14 volts if your alternator is working properly.
Of course, check all of your connections first, and most auto parts stores will check your alternator out for free, so they might have a chance to sell you one!

Radio shuts off when headlights are on

Likely bad ground. Also check battery voltage when headlights are on. Most stereos shuts off when battery level drops bellow certain value
