Power outlets?
Does anyone know how to fix the power outlet? The one next to my cigarette lighter doesn't seem to work.
Thanks

Not too sure how its wired in an Expedition, but first off check for a blown fuse. If all are good check the connections on the back of the outlet. If you have a voltmeter see if you are getting 12v on the wire attatched to the center of the outlet. If so, check for continuity between the other wire and ground(any metal under the dash should do). Let me know how you make out.

Thanks Bill,
It turns out that the #4 fuse has blown. Replaced and worked like a champ...
Thanks again

Anyone know how to get the 12v outlets to switch on and off with the key. If not what is the best place to wire in a radar detector to switch on and off with the key.

There might be an un-unsed keyed accessory spot on the fuse box.
The keyed radio power wire is always good for a few more amps.
That's two.
