2000 LS V8, original owner. Man what a clusterf**k this has been. Replacing the last original regulator, driver's door. Ordered a Dorman from Rockauto and had it in about 3 days. But it showed up with the cables un-spooled from the nylon reel that interfaces with the motor. Try as I might...

Got home last night and moved the car into the garage in preparation of digging into it today. Well, everything was back to normal. This morning I put in a new Motorcraft battery (can't beat their price) just because. Changed the oil and rotated the tires. Going to have to put some $'s into...

Rats, I had it in my hand at the dealer then. He thought is was the other one and it's on special order. I saw that thread listed above but obviously missed the reply with the description. Thanks for the quick replies. Off to the dealer tomorrow again. Regards, Gary

Hi All, New to the site. I'm the original owner of a 2000 LS Sport. The auto headlight capability quite working some time ago. After search about the site I've not been able to determine with confidence which sensor on the dash controls the headlights. There are two sensors on the...
