Great video. I followed it and installed a new head unit in my 2000 f-150 tonight. And thanks to you, I went straight to the oscillating tool to make my cuts. 😂
A chainsaw was going to be the next tool to try or maybe the jaws of life.
I am glad that you liked it.
Thanks. I have a low miles 2001 Expy and I am about to have it repained and a new radio would be nice for the next few years as well.
OMG !! I am so sad that happen!! Can't believe it. My prayers to you. Keep calm. May God help those thieves. I am always supporting your channel and I have learned a lot from you.
Thank you. They did very minimal damage so other than a financial loss it isn't a big deal. I don't understand people that do that kind of stuff.
Thanks buddy, this saved me tons of time. And that plug end you asked about is for the four wheel drive selector on the 4x4 models
Thanks for watching!!!
Great install video. Sorry to hear about your Expedition being broken into,
Thank you. Hopefully the new owner of the head unit enjoys it as much as I did.
I know the feeling, I had $$$ pioneer stereo stolen!!! a month after my install....
That sux!
Was your factory alarm turned on?
It happened to my wife. She usually locks and sets the alarm, but I do not know for sure.
Hi. I wanted to know was there any metra dash kit you installed? Or did you just trim the bezel and put it in like that
This was fire bro🔥dis what i want fr mine is 1997 ford f-150 short bed 🔥
The wire you asked about is a 4 pin in my navigator and is for the auto/4x4 switch
Thanks!
The plug-in that plugs in on the left side under your vent to the back of the panel is a cable that plugs into your four-wheel drive switch if you have four wheel drive on your vehicle. I have a 2000 Ford Expedition that is four wheel drive and it plugs into that switch that controls my four-wheel drive high/low and two-wheel drive
Thank you!
CRAP, didn't see that one coming 😢. Sorry that someone got you. Good video
Thx
(23:42) on the 1998 Navigator that's the 4WD selector control. Thanks for the installation hints!
Do you remember witch color wire is the remote wire on the factory hornets an did you have too cut anything too make radio fit ?
The dimmer ground where does that hook up
That sucks... really sorry to hear that..becoming an untrusting world unfortunately.. after all that hard work ... it's disturbing....hope you can afford another one .. great install by the way ..Thx for the info..👍😀
Sad that someone stole the radio. Always best to install a aftermarket alarm on all your cars and trucks. OEM alarms aren't bad but there are so many ways around them. I'm installing a media Center in my 2001 and also installing a flip down screen that will house a computer. The computer will work as a arcade and play thousands of games. I'm also removing the OEM factory amp and sub amd going with aftermarket.
Great content, keep up the great work.
Thank you, I'm glad that you liked it. Sounds like you are building a very nice system.
@@TwoKeysStudio trying to but there isn't any cheaper ways to install it correctly and safely. Ibe been stock up everything I need to install it all. There's no cheap way to install it correctly and safely. I do keep hitting walls and that's why i haven't started the install yet. It looks like I may have to scrap the idea and just go with a good aftermarket radio, aftermarket 8 inch sub to replace the factory. Then install 2 larger subs with another amp in the back. Leave the arcade and screen out of it. Just taking a huge risk of something overheating and melting wires and burning it all up.
I did find a mini PC that runs off of a 12 volt supply. That is my partway of going. I will have to change PC and leave out the inverter and keep everything 12 volt all the way through.
Where exactly does it say I gotta pull everything apart to just get the factory radio out?
I just had a quick question about the interface do you remember what wire you use to hook up the positive for each speaker the high level positive or low level positive
That is a very good question and I honestly do not remember for sure The first one that I did was incorrect on the wiring diagram that I had. I told Crutchfield about it and the unit that I replaced the one that was stolen from me with had the correct wiring. I think it was low level positive.
that plug around 23:30 is for a 4x4 selector
I can’t seem to find the connector to go from my 1998 Expedition Eddie Bauer. I’ve bought a couple from Amazon, but they’re not a fit.
Ty, very to point info
You're welcome. Thank you for watching!
How do you repin the wires so your back speakers play? I'm having the same problem.
Get a de-pinner tool. Amazon sells the connector pin removal tool. Have a master set from when I worked at Mercedes-Benz. You can removes out of everything out there including your computer cables
I have a 2002 Expedition and when I shut the car off the heat stay on. I pulled the fuse for the front blower motor but yesterday the back came on. The rear window wiper arm seal is loose and maybe water is getting in and causing a short? Any ideas?
Ps - Thanks for sharing your ideas on here.
Could be water or a stuck relay. I've had a fuel pump relay stick on before. Swap your blower motor relay with another one and see if the problem changes.
Can you tell me what the number on the after market wiring harness is on 1998 ford expedition having trouble finding one at store for my year model I could not see the case in video
It was this one:
www.crutchfield.com/p_541FRD2/PAC-ROEM-FRD2-Wiring-Interface.html
My 2001 expedition still has the original factory stereo which includes a 6 cd changer in the center console... im looking into upgrading to a radio that has bluetooth... if i upgrade, will the cd changer become obsolete?
Exactly, that is why I removed mine.
You are lucky the 6 CD changer still works. Had mine apart 3 times and cant figure out why it jams. A head unit and CD's ripped to USB are in the future for me.
Those wires are for the 4x4 selector.
So I have a f150 2001.. I'm trying to put a single in.. but there is this black cord that goes in the back? Not the antenna. A different cord, and idk what it is. Can anyone help me? There is an area for a cord like that to go but it does have the right slots. Like it's the perfect place for it to go just it's the wrong holes inside the cord. Anyone know what I'm talking about or do I sound crazy?
I have the same vehicle and I was wondering how do you bypass the factory amplifier
Bypassing the factory amplifier requires running the wires back to the amplifier and using that plug instead of plug up front near the head unit
Any idea what the little metal switch on the dashboard driver side to the bottom right of the steering wheel is for?
Also, my expedition came with and LCD flip up radio which is stock, (Eddie Bauer edition) The screen flips up but doesn't turn on so I'm hoping maybe this video will guide me 😅
So I'm getting ready to install a double din in my truck it is a 1999 expedition xlt with the premium radio with the alpine setup 6 disc changer I am curious about the harness you used every were i look no one offers a harness like that i just want to make sure I'm getting the right one. Also the door grills say premium is that the same as the Mach?
The one I used was purchased through Crutchfield. I think that they have now changed venders. Give them a call and ask them about it. Crutchfield is very helpful, and not pushy with sales. I have been a customer for years. Crutchfiled.com
@@TwoKeysStudio ok ty so much
Thanks my brother... Sorry for what happen
wow nice
Thank you!
Where can I find a original radio for my 98 expedition xlt with the cd changer in the counsel? I can't seem to even find a picture of what it looks like.
Junkyard or Ebay would be your best bet.
I have one, take it from my truck, I am from Chihuahua, Mexico, write me to see how I can get it to you, I will give it to you
I know the feeling some one did the exact same thing to me have you gotten a new stereo jet??
Sorry hear that, it really sux. I have replaced it and Crutchfield helped me out a little bit.
What do I do if the wires (wiring harness) melt together, corrode and catch fire??
Put the fire out and then replace the wires. Painless Wire may have a harness to help.
Of course I will subscribed to your chanel.
Thank you!
Which JVC model # did you buy....
950 BW. It looks like there is now a newer version.
Here is a link to the one I purchased:
www.crutchfield.com/p_105KWV950B/JVC-KW-V950BW.html
Do you know if the expeditions cd player still functioned with the after market radio
It will not. An aftermarket head unit has no way to control it.
Thank you! That’s very helpful to know
That plug is for 4x4/2x4 switch.
What’s that tool called that u used to pry off the battery terminal?
Battery terminal lifter/puller. They also work great removing windshield wiper arms.

Great video. I too live in Gwinnett in Buford. I’m currently looking at 97-99 expeditions for a hunting lease. Could i pay you to do this work for me ? Thanks, GB
I wished that I had time to help you out, but I am pretty busy right now.
@@TwoKeysStudio no worries thanks for your reply
4wd switch? but I see your bezel/radio trim doesn't have the knob
Mine is 2wd, no knob.
Mine same as yours
Job job
Great job all around boss, sucks people like that roam the earth, these things are expensive
Thank you!
Do you know why I only get sound from 2 front speakers? No sound from rear speakers
Probably the amp trigger isn't hooked up correctly. I think I mentioned that in my first video. If I remember correctly, it was blue or blue and white connected to the power antenna lead.
@@TwoKeysStudio I even put the original radio and same thing. It's not just the new radio that does it
Heads up just cut bottom bar above the a/c control and job done repeat just the bottom bar no cutting at the top and it will fit perfect
23:49 is to control 4x4
Thanks!
That is for the 4X4 switch
That plug goes to the 4wd selector that you don't have.
Thanks!
Nice video. Boss I like it. Just need some to help you to do the video recording.... ...
I having cuestión for you. Have 2000 ford expedition. And I have a problem with the cigarette lighter of 20 # amps. Every. Video. What I see say 20 or 25 amps. But. When I put on. The fuse. Get burnt
This was one of my first videos and I now have much better equipment, although shooting video inside a vehicle like this isn't easy. No matter what angle I shoot at, I end up getting my arm, shoulder, or whatever in the way. As for the blown fuse issue, it sounds like you may have a dead short somewhere. Pull the fuse and do an ohm check from the non power side to ground. It should be infinite resistance. I sometimes use the audible setting on resistance and move the wiring harness around listening for beeps. This can aid in finding a wire that has been rubbing up against some sharp metal and become chaffed.
to change to 2 wheel 4 wheel drive
where did you buy that panel from ????????????????????????????????????????????
It is part of the install kit from Crutchfield. There is a link in the description..
@@TwoKeysStudio im not talking about the double din, im asking about the actual panel/trim from the truck itself did you modify it or bought it like that ?
@@triplerboul4308 the brown trim is the stock Eddie Bauer trim, the thin black piece around the radio is the install kit. I didn't do any mods to the trim itself, just cut some of the brackets in the dash. The install ends up looking like a factory job.
@@TwoKeysStudio thanks alot thats why im a subscriber !
I think that plug in goes to 4Wheel drive switch to 2￦
I wish the Ac controls could flow with the rest of the radio look...
Will this fit in a 1999 expedition
And what size is the screen I have a 1999 expedition will a 9inch are 10inch screen fit
Yes it will with some trimming. This one is 6.8".
Ok thank u so much
The connector is for 2H 4H 4L Select switch. Sorry it was stolen
Them battery needs some cleaning. Lol
They were pretty bad.
Fo shizzle.
what kind of garbage steals a radio.....That's low....Nice video btw. Is your channel focused on the expedition?
The main focus would be the Expedition. My wife has had this one since 2000 and I have been slowly upgrading and repairing things on it. Secondary would be my Ford Fusion Sport. Look for upcoming videos for shock replacement and the rear brakes to be upgraded to Power Stops on the Expedition. The shocks have been done, but I haven't edited and posted the video yet. The brake hardware has come in, but it's hot and I am lazy.
Especially nowadays, is that even profitable today?
That really sucked. And i mean the stealing of the HU.
