Hey fellas,
Read here a lot. Decided to register. I got an '02 LSE from Craigslist and trying to get her together and looking good. There is a lot of work to be done.
 
Welcome to the club. Post up some pics and lets take a look at how much work you're really talking about.

I took some bit not sure how to post here. I am using iPhone. Anyone have suggestions?

I use Photobucket for image hosting. There's an app for it and you should be able to upload to Photobucket, get the img url for it, then copy/post it here.

Clear as mud?

So far in the last week ive had it: It had a leather shifter. Found a wood grain from CL. There was an issue with ABS light and advance trac check light, I pulled ABS sensors for the rear and the ABS light went off. Advance trac doesn't say check anymore but still flashes. Ordered a new vent unit with the 4 buttons that I'm waiting on so I can upgrade the head unit to a double din touch.
 
Just afraid of that if I pull that unit out it will crumble, so I'm just going to wait until the new one comes.
 
Also next week I'm going to see if I have enough for the steering wheel with wood grain.
 
That interior is mint. Looks like it just rolled off the line. Nice pickup

What do those two extra buttons up by the vents do??
 
Yup, looks like a gen 1 LSE, nice color. Should be good in no time.

The steering wheel I agree could use some attention. :shifty:

What type of miles?

The guy I got it from told me that the one on the left adjusted the boost for the turbo and the one on the right allows me to control the air/fuel ratio.

Definitely in need of a paint job. It came with 130k. Had a hard time getting parts for it. Checked all junkyards in my area and only found a stripped V6. Luckily it still had the ABS sensors on it. You guys think since my advance trac says ok and the ABS light went off, but the advance trac light still flashes its a YAW sensor or that the ABS module needs to be reprogrammed?
 
very niccccccceeeeeeee..........Good find, it does look like its in excellent condition. Just a little tender love and you got your self a monster. Gook luck and keep us posted on the progress!

You will need to have your system calibrated which can only be done by a Ford specific scanner at the dealer.
 
Welcome! I see that the relentless Florida sun has gotten the steering wheel and paint. I had my steering wheel redone in my 02, and it was in need of a paint job when I traded it last summer.

You know what is weird is that the sun took the hood and the trunk, but the roof is still looking like glass. I can tell the previous owner had some cheap paint blending done on most the car, but the roof is still in excellent stock paint. Can't figure that out. And yeah the I figured it would need the recalibration but just wanted a second opinion. So the abs fault would set off the advance trac and now that the abs code is gone the advance trac still needs to be recalibration due to the repair?
 
WOW!!! Definitely needs some love. Appears you are on top of it. Have the LSE looking and running great in no time.:)
 
Got a lot of things on the LSE finished this week. Waiting on one part in the mail and ill post some pictures
