2005 Ford Explorer with 4.6 engine. I have codes P1299, P0171, P0170, P0174, P0316, P0307, P0300?

The first thing you do is clear all the codes with your scan tool. P0300 is just a random misfire where the ECM can't decide which cylinder it is on. Here is the thermostat gasket https://www.autozone.com/gaskets/thermostat-gasket/ford/explorer/2005 Here is the thermostat housing complete. It looks like it is plastic so probably cracked when you were tightening the nuts. https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/find/2005-ford-explorer-thermostat-housing.c9762 This code is worrying, but if the sensors are saying Lean Mixture, that means it is dumping more fuel to compensate which doesn't cause 'heat'. Try running a bottle of Extreme Clean Fuel System Cleaner through it. Clean the connector contacts on the o2 sensors. Make sure the coolant system is full and no airlocks.

2004 Ford Explorer. The theft light keeps flashing and the car won't start. I only have one key, no spare key and fob.

Sounds like you need an auto locksmith. All vehicles need two keys, because when you lose the only one you have, you will either have to change the key cylinder and reprogram or be towed to the dealership for a key cut based on the VIN Number and reprogram. If you don't have the fob, you may not be able to do the security reset, but it is worth a try. If you disconnect the battery, you will be the radio code and also have to do various re-learn procedures, so try without doing that.. https://www.google.com/search?q=2004+ford+explorer+security+reset https://www.google.com/search?q=mobile+auto+locksmith+near+me ..

1978 Ford F100 5.0l do I need to replace the fuel tank vent valve when I replace a new fuel tank?

Replace a 45 year old valve? Sure, it will have new sealing gaskets. Some states check the valve for emissions test.

Fuse 13 blows when key turns to start . Why and how to fix

It looks like fuse 13 is for the Brake Pedal Position Sensor. I'm assuming your vehicle has an automatic transmission and you need to press the brake pedal to get it to start. This could be a wire 'shorting out' to somewhere it shouldn't. Basically the electric power going down the wire is jumping across a gap and not going where it's supposed to go. Hunting electrical 'shorts' is a pain in the tailbone if you don't know electrics so take it to a good auto electrician. They'll have the tools and the knowledge to sort it out.

2011 Ford F-150 5.0 liter 4x4 is stuck in tow/haul but the button does not work or light up. Can anyone help?

One possible cause is a faulty wiring harness in the shifter that wears out and causes a short circuit1. This can be checked by inspecting the wires under the steering column and looking for any signs of damage or corrosion. If this is the case, you may need to replace the wiring harness or repair the wires. Another possible cause is a bad solenoid switch inside the transmission1. This is a more serious problem that requires opening the transmission and replacing the solenoid. This can be a costly and complicated repair, so you may want to consult a professional mechanic before attempting it. A third possible cause is a low or weak battery2. Sometimes, the electrical system can act up when the battery is not providing enough power. This can be tested by checking the battery voltage with a multimeter or a battery tester. If the battery is low, you may need to recharge it or replace it with a new one. A fourth possible cause is a glitch in the electronic system34. Sometimes, the tow/haul mode can get stuck due to a software error or a sensor malfunction. This can be fixed by resetting the system by disconnecting the negative battery cable and waiting for an hour, then reconnecting it. This should clear any codes and restore the normal function of the tow/haul mode

Key fob not working on front passenger side but works all other doors. I changed the actuator. 2012 ford fusion. Any Ideas will help

Does your fusion have Power Door Locks - Without Memory or Power Door Locks - With Memory ? Do you know about ford SJB - smart junction box ? Power Door Locks - Without Memory Regardless of the key position, the smart junction box (SJB) is supplied voltage at all times. When the SJB receives a signal from the remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter, the keyless entry keypad, or the door lock control switches, the SJB supplies a ground signal to the appropriate lock or unlock relay. The ground signal closes the relay which supplies voltage to the door lock actuators. The door lock actuators then actuate to a lock or unlock position. Power Door Locks - With Memory Regardless of the key position, the SJB and the driver door module (DDM) are supplied voltage at all times. When the SJB receives a signal from the RKE transmitter, the keyless entry keypad, or either door lock control switch, the SJB sends a command to the DDM, through the controller area network (CAN), and a ground signal to the lock and unlock relays. When the LH door lock control switch is pressed, the DDM receives the lock or unlock signal. The DDM will send a request through the CAN network to the SJB to lock or unlock the passenger doors. The SJB then responds to the DDM request, authorizing a lock or unlock of the driver door by the DDM. The DDM then supplies voltage and ground to the driver door lock actuator based on the lock or unlock request. The ground signal in the SJB closes the relay which supplies voltage to the remaining door lock actuators. The remaining door lock actuators then actuate to a lock or unlock position determined by the relay.

If you have the code try this. - Turn on the radio. - press the number 1 button the same number of times as the first number in the code. example..press 4 times for the number 4. - Use Button 2 for the next number, Button 3 for the next number and button 4 for the last number. - Press and HOLD button 5 until you hear a beep. The radio should turn on. Note. It will turn on at the volume it was previously at so be prepared as it might be loud. Yes, I've done that.
