I couldn't tell you why the brakes are locking up or why the odometer is wrong; however, the battery being dead might be because of the Alternator. I have a 97 Expedition and mine seemed like the power was going and eventually would not start. After I got the alternator changed (for about $300 or so) its worked fine ever since.
Try disconnecting the battery. It will reset computer. In which case disengages the transmission.
Try disconnecting the battery. This will reset computer. And may reset the transmission computer.
According to the 2004 Ford Expedition owners manual : The drawing of the engine compartment shows the automatic transmission fluid dipstick just to the right of the battery ( when looking into the engine compartment from the front of the vehicle )
It comes off the firewall and goes into the top of the transmission at the speed sensor location....in the top of the transmission. You'll have to take the intake housing and the battery and tray out to get to it.
According to the engine compartment drawing in the 2004 Ford Expedition Owner Guide , the automatic transmission fluid level dipstick is located between the battery and the engine ( 4.6 and 5.4 ) * I sure wouldn't be looking for it in that location
I don't think so... I think the transmission need electric power to engage.
Bad Battery. Bad Alternator. Lights left on by mistake. Something left running. Exc.
what causes the battery light to on a 2005 ford expedition to come on?
battery does not power the transmission,but it does run the computer that tells the transmission what to do
When you disconnect the battery cables to service / or change the battery , the vehicle has to relearn it's " drive cycle " so it may not idle correctly , the transmission may not shift properly etc. until everthing is " relearned "
