Ok guys I bought a 97 expedition that was a theft recovery. I have the dash pulled to replace the main wire harness that runs to all the doors and behind the dash.

Now the question is, Is there anything else I should replace or look at while the dash is pulled? I only want to do this once so I nned to take care of what every I can while the dash is out. Thanks, Jason

 

Heater core.

 

The heater control door

 

the heater blend door??

 

Yes the blend door, I couldn't remember the actuall name last night, they are notorious for failing, especially for the 97's.

 

THE HEATER CORE and blend door as said before. If you don't, it will start leaking 100 miles from now. And it requires the dash to be removed to replace it. It was said (jokingly) by one of the fellas that wrote Ford's repair manual that Ford starts out by hanging the heater core on a wire and then builds the rest of the truck around it.
