2008 Expedition Subwoofer...

Does anyone have any idea as to how to "enable" my subwoofer on my 2008 Ford Expedition King Ranch EL? I purchased an OEM 2008 model navigation system from ebay and everthying but my subwoofer works. I found out it wasn't working by pressing 3 & 6 and going into the diagnostics page. I'm trying to keep from going to the dealer and having my unit flashed and spending $150!!! Is there a hack similar to the GPS hack?

Was the NAV unit programmed for an Expedition with subwoofer setup ? If not there is nothing you can do on your end. It would need to be reprogrammed.

Awesome...I believe it can from a 2008 Ford Flex, so I don't know if those had subwoofers, but the ks for the advice. Do you know if there are other places other than the dealer that. An reprogram it?

I think I read a few posts where guys have sent their NAV units to this place.

United Radio - Automotive Electronics - Quality Electronics Service Since 1923

Might want to do a search on here for United Radio.


Did you do the GPS hack on the unit yet ? If so you can access the screen that will tell you how the unit is programmed and whether or not the subwoofer is "enabled".
