Did u check your coil packs it seems u have a bad coil

Hi Keith, The links below will show you where your coolant sensor is, The 1st link is a question and answer forum about a 2005 F150 4x4 5.4L and the 2nd link is a short youtube video showing where the coolant sensor is on the Ford 5.4 (2003), Keith it seems like both motors are the same and these links are worth having a look at..... CHEERS.. http://www.fordf150.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=112034 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R86kAAwhiqc

Check air passage across radiator for blockage, also look for leaks along seam of radiator headers. Malfunction of thermostat, also look around weep holes on water pump it my be in the failure stage.
Really check for weep hole leakage of water pump.

Sounds as if there is a parasitic draw on the battery. You need to perform a draw test to see what amperage is being drawn from the battery while the vehicle sits. Anything more than !/4 amp will kill the battery overnight. Check for any lights that may be staying on inside the vehicle as well as outside the vehicle while it is shut off before getting involved in a draw test

Have a look on the following link for the socket/wrench/tool you will need: spark plug socket Google Search To avoid getting the ignitions leads replaced in the wrong order: Remove ONE lead from ONE plug at a time. Use the tool/socket to remove that plug by turning anti-clockwise. Put the new socket in hand tight - this is to avoid cross-threading the spark plug and damaging its threads/threads in cylinder head. When the spark plug is hand-tight/finger tight, tighten it with the socket /tool. Just 'gently tighten it up' - do not overtighten. Replace the ignition lead and then move onto the next plug. removing spark plug Google Search

if none of them work, I would check the fuse. Good Luck

Do not overlook any fuses and relays on the windows and lock circuits.

You can do that with special tools. http://www.amazon.com/FJC-7510-Compressor-Clutch-Puller/dp/B0049MK3Z2

if you mean there is power and ground at the motor then the motor is bad and needs replacing.

Take the VIN#/truck to a dealer. They can reset it.

Hi Gerard: White smoke can be an indication od a bad head gasket. Are you losing engine coolant? If you remove the spark plugs and find bad fouling that will confirm the problem cylinders. Then I would suggest doing a compression test..

sounds like your cv joint needs replacing on that single side if you are hearing a grinding# How are your anti roll bar bushes and drop links? It may be a combination of things rather than just the one. Clunking and grinding do not necessarily go together but might be a symptom of a single issue. Maybe Fixya should set up a sound file facility so that we can listen to such sounds too!!

Some friend. probably wants to steal it at some later date only way is to smash the fob but you will need a spare fob for the immobiliser go to the police and state that the key has been stolen, you know who has it and you want it back

It sounds like you have either burned out the plugs or a wire leading to the headlights.

First thing to do is check the plugs for power with a multimeter. If there isn't any, then start tracing the wiring.

If there is power, check your light switch and the signal stalk. Often times the trigger for the high beams dying cuts off all power to the headlights.

Insure that ground wire for that lamp is good and connections are good. Use multimeter to insure you have voltage to the bulb socket. Trace wires back to headlamp relay cheaking for broken wire.

Most people associate white smoke as a blown head gasket but I had a Ford that was dumping fuel and it had heavy white smoke and stunk out the exhaust. It had bad injectors. Let your mechanic read your fuel trims on his scanner after a long highway drive. Or do a fuel leak down test on them to know for sure.

use pliers but put a rag between to prevent scratching
