Ford Expedition Remove Radio & Poor Reception Repair

[pegsue07]

Where did you get the Ford Radio removal tool from?

@pegsue07 Most auto part stores.

Sorry, I do no aftermarket installation. I'd suggest visiting several of your local installation shops. You will quickly find out who knows their stuff and who is just looking to make a sale. Good luck!

Coat hanger bent to shape, four nails, but nothing makes the job easier than the right tool!

There are usually two fuses for the car stereo. One located in the passenger compartment, under the dash driver's side. Second, under the hood near the vehicle's battery. Check ALL fuses, only one is labeled for the car stereo.

If you have a set of din removal tools, sometimes putting a slight bend into the tool will help catch the clip.

On a '99 Sable I can engage the clips on the right side but not the left. I can feel the tool skip over the clip. Would it help to "knife edge" the end of the tool? Any suggestions? Thanks!

Does the 2000 Crown Vic have the same problem? Because I can't get my radio out with just the DIN tools. Is it that easy to take off the panel. Just find the clips and pop it lose?

[boblizcou]

If there are two small holes on each side of the the stereo, the tools should remove the stereo. On rare occasions, The side spring on the stereo is out of alignment.

Wow. Woke up this morning, went downstairs first thing to try again and it worked perfectly. The problem was I wasn't really pulling the things apart as I pulled it out. It came out so easily on the first try. Thanks man.
