I turned on the Expedition last night and had no instrument cluster light. The yellow check engine light was on and would blink. The dome light and radio work though.
I had no tail lights at all. Only the driverside brake light was operational and along with all of that, my engine has a wierd hesitation to it, like it's being starved of gasoline. It goes when I press the pedal, but it's kinda, "bumpy", is the only way to explain it. I looked at the fuse sand didn't see any of them blown. I need help.

First "test" all the fuses. Sometimes it's hard to tell just by looking at them. The dash and tail lights are on the same fuse. If all fuses are good, check the head light switch itself. Fords are good for burning the terminals were the wires connect to the switch.
On the "bumpy" acceleration, when was the last tune up? Please advise.
