To install a new thermostat with only 2 wires, first turn off the power to the heating or cooling system. Remove the old thermostat and note which wires are connected to it. Connect the 2 wires to the corresponding terminals on the new thermostat. Secure the new thermostat to the wall and turn the power back on. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for programming and setting the new thermostat.

What can you do after replacing the thermostat on a 1996 Ford Crown Victoria and you only get low heat?

Did you install the correct temperature thermostat? Was it possibly installed up side down? Spring goes toward engine block. Did you bleed all the air out of the system? If you are saying the fan only runs on the low speed setting, then the Blower Motor Resistor is bad.

How can I properly connect a thermostat with only 2 wires in the wiring setup?

To properly connect a thermostat with only 2 wires in the wiring setup, you will need to identify the two wires, typically labeled as R and W. The R wire is the power wire, and the W wire is the heating wire. Connect the R wire to the R terminal on the thermostat and the W wire to the W terminal. Make sure the thermostat is compatible with a 2-wire setup and follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper installation.

Do you replace coils when you change plugs and wires on 1998 ford expedition?

It is not necessary to replace the coilpacks as routine maintenance. At around $70 each, it is a significant expense. Replace only the boots that connect from the coilpacks to the plugs. I think JC Whitney has the boots for $4 each. Replacing the boots is equivalent to replacing the wires on an older car. Do not replace the small wires going to each coil. They are not high energy wires.

One reason is the thermostat regulates the flow of coolant through the engine. If it's stuck open, it may not allow the engine to reach its optimal operating temperature.
