After 13 years of ownership of my '99 Expedition, I locked all the keys in the truck with the lights on and inadvertently left it overnight. I was left with with a dead battery, no keys, and no working key-less entry; the outlook appeared grim. I needed to open the hood and charge the battery to unwind my mess. I discovered this: from underneath the truck and behind the bumper there is a flat rubber blanket (cooling seal) that directs airflow. Unclip the three forward push fasteners and pull back the rubber blanket, you now have a clear view of the bottom of the hood latch. You will see inside the latch the release cable, the rotating latch mechanism that is also connected to a spring. There is a hole in the center of this mechanism. Use a clothes hanger with a small bend at the end, insert into the hole, and pull down. It will quickly and effortlessly unlatch. Project is 10 minutes, tops.
Check under the hood decal info.

The hood should still open when the battery is dead

No. The wiring is inside the cab.
I see why not... They are practically the same vehicle...
The hood is in no way controlled or opened by the battery. A hood does not have an electric release. It's a cable operated system.
yes push hood release cable from bracket and pull on it
Its 134a it says it right under the hood.
The starter on a 2000 Ford Focus LX is located under the hood. If you are outside of the car and facing the hood, it is on the right side.
I noticed that " Helpfull " had answered that the air suspension relay on a 1998 Ford Expedition was located on a bracket by the passenger side headlight . ( he came up with the answer after doing a Google search about 21 hours ago - was the answer not correct ? )
under the hood on the left front, it looks like a large fuse box.
