- Few jobs knocked over in the last few days with the old car,
It’s all working out well, just time consuming as always, had a good run finding spare parts which is good.
There is relatively new XH arrived at the Wreckers a month ago, so I’ve got some parts of it that were somewhat hard to find.
I I forgot to mention the door trim piece. I had to modified to suit the different lock style as well like the EF locks
Hope this helps
John from Ipswich here.. Does your central lock work? Had a lot of grief getting mine to work after getting new ebay key pads.. had to code them in.. Ford in their wisdom use the back window light switch to code in the remotes.. problem is there is no back light demister switch on panelvan.. well actually the wiring is hidden in the dash.. but you also need the relay too.. which was a delete on the vans.. it was like a deep dive that went on for days.. Anyway remote lock worked great for a few years and then it didn't.. just kept cycling shut open, shut open.. After pulling apart actuator I find the little white plastic bit is split, but you can't see until you load a bit of pressure on the lever.. 😠.. grrr.. looks like a very fiddly plastic fix.. Sorry to dump.. needed to vent..
I never got a remote with the car. I fixed the electronic door lock (replaced with one from the wreckers) but it is key open (drivers side only on these). I had the cycling issue too. Pain for sure. I have never asked ford for the letter on this one. I know a 99 model XH van are few and far between.
Mine is a sept 98 option 20 ex cop, maybe why it came with central lock, abs, and delete centre seat, at least it was deleted when I got it. Had the same grief with window channel on my other van an xf, and fixed same as you with donor channel from a spare door. Was it you mentioned having grief with fuel pump only to find it was the relay under the overflow bottle. I didn't know about a relay, but got one off ebay and swapped over and now starts straight up, almost first turn. Beauty !! 😀 Sometimes you can get the shits with these old cars and then you have a win and its all good again.. J.
