SOURCE: how to install passenger side view mirror Ford

On the inside trim, you can remove screws that are by the door handle, arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the panel as there will also be retaining clips attached and you don't want to break them. You'll need to lift the door panel upwards in order to get it off the window ledge. Then you'll need to manipulate the panel and disconnect the door handle linkage from the door handle and disconnect the wiring for your controls. Then you can access the bolts that secure the mirror onto the door

SOURCE: i have a 2004 ford explorer the heater only puts

It can't. The problem you describe sounds like your blend door has broken, to access it you have to remove the dash completely to access the environmental station, you may be able to open the environmental station to replace the blend door after that, however you may have to remove the environmental station as well, which means you will have to disconnect the water lines to the heater and the a/c also. Verify your door problem by going to the center of the dash at the bottom find the cover panel and remove it, look for a small white square box, this is the stepping motor that moves the blend door, take it off and plug it into its wiring harness, rotate your temp controls and see if it moves, if so use a inspection mirror and look up at the door and see if the drive end has broken off. Hope this helps, let me know

It sounds like blower motor has failed. Motor is located behind glove box on lower part of heater box.

01 ford escape w/ 185,000 miles. warning sound of 5 consecutive dings then pause and a few minutes later, 5 more, and continues to do this at various times and then sometimes it doesnt do it at all. ...

The dinging from the dash is the Air bag system check. Check that the bulb in the dash isn't burned out. The stalling and spitting could be clogged converter. Check how much exhaust is coming out of the tail pipe when you rev it. The smoke could just be from a leaking valve cover gasket.

I own a 2007 montana and had it for 1 month now ..It keeps making a ding ding ding chime while driving ..The passengers rear door is automatic and when I press the button it makes the same noise but when...

1. Turn off the overhead over-ride switch. Drive again. Do the chimes stop? If yes, the door is not closing properly due to the door contacts. Clean them yourself or have them serviced.
2. If the chimes did not stop in step 1. above, it's not likely the door but rather something else.
3. Chimes occur for many reasons. Suggest checking - a. are the rear back-up warning sensors blocked/dirty? b. any other lights on the dash like oil, abs, airbag, etc? c. passenger side airbag disabled - something heavy placed in passenger seat?

In my experience, it's the automatic door contacts. We have a long history of problems with these auto doors, that are still not resolved. problems all throughout the warranty period, and now into the extended warranty period. We must unite and get GM to resolve the quality of these doors. My next step (next incident) is going to be to have the dealership inspect the entire wiring system.
