water temp indicator or oil pressure indicator on a $ 30K automobile? :mad:
I eventually got used to not having them. Then I bought a "ScanGauge II" it was well worth the $170....you can program in any gauge you want because it reaches all the sensors in the FEH.
for your ford secape 08 the cost is over $2200.00
this is were i'm going to get my gps for my ford escape 06 xlt
Thanks in advance!!!
I have an 08 AWD/Limited FEH and bought it with the 2 crossbars on top ack right next to each other so I obviously have to move them/spread them out to put my surfboard rack on it...I cannot for the life of me figure out how to adjust these though, as what I THOUGHT would be the little rubber bolts you twist/unscrew to loosen the crossbars on the rack to adjust, they don't move - at all! and since they are rubber they begin to give way when I try and force it with a tool or something so i don't want to break anything.
Any ideas? Help would be seriously appreciated, thank you!!
I also have the 2008 AWD with the premium package (I did not realize they had the "limited" package in 2008).
i'm not sure where the 'screws' are, but I attached an image...is that knob that you see on the right (where the arrow is pointing) where you are supposed to twist to loosen it up?? that's what seems to be jammed for me but i didnt want to start too hard to break something...what did you unscrew it with? :confuse:
and you may be right, i'm not sure if they called the 08's "limited" i know it's not labeled on the car - but neither is the AWD for some reason! it's the leather seats, sunroof, navi, etc - probably the same thing? i believe the dealer labeled it as limited but maybe it's just more easily known by that because of how they label the newer models...
Yes, that knob on the right should unscrew so as to remove the rails. I can't remember for sure, but I may have used a screwdriver to do the initial turn.
They cause drag, so one of the first things I did was remove the cross rails.
On my 2008, the accessories switch off after a certain period, I'm not sure if it is 10 minutes or maybe 20 minutes. But they do switch off.
If so is the wiring pre-installed and tucked above the headliner?
What year and model Escape do you own?

Hopefully, we'll get some Escape experts in here that might be able to give you an answer..

Since it's made of stainless steel I am hoping it will be able to deal with the small amount of bending I did to it to make it work. Basically the angles needed to be 'opened up' a smidge, but it seems to fit pretty well. Used 3m paint protector tape to hopefully avoid that issue.
Fishing co-ax and power cable thru was not as bad as I imagine it could've been. Removed the under-engine cover thinking that might help, but turns out it really didn't. I wound up doing the job all from above.
I think i'm going to blame computer-aided design for the fact that everything is stacked in so tightly that there's barely enough room for any extras the FMC engineers didn't see fit to put in.
