3rd Seat Wiring
Had to roll the 3rd seat forward today to load a big box in my Excursion. Sticking up through the floor under the 3rd seat was two heavy guage wires, one negative and one positive. They appear to have been cut.
Anybody have any idea what these are?

No ex has ever had any third seat wiring. Unless you had purchased the vahicles from a QVM with a power fold rear bed seat. This was an option on many aftermarket packages. Other than that there was no wiring.

Trace it! See where it goes... I'd be curious to know what it was for. Whatever it is, I would make sure its not live, because it might be a fire hazard or short and cause some electrical headaches...
Just my $.02

Yeah, I agree, I am going to trace it. But the weather turned violent
this afternoon with heavy rain and hail. Might do it tomorrow!

It is probably a feed from one of the batteries for some kind of power inverter that used to be there.

That was the "ejector seat option" available that year for roudy kids.
When the kids would fight or would not shut-up, you press the dash mounted button and the roof opens and the seat (with kids on it) is ejected up and away. Ford worked with "Q" from the James Bond series on the front-side development of this option.
Wish mine had it!!!!!
