#6137 of 6241 Re: re: transmission fluid [swschrad] by flagat Nov 11, 2008 (6:54 pm)
Replying to: swschrad (Apr 25, 2000 2:35 am) Will transmission fluid being sucked into the manifold cause the engine to surge and create a knocking sound in the intake manifold? Also, I have a '94 explorer and it's been surging. I was told by the good people at Auto Zone that it was my EGR valve, which I've replaced and still have the problem.
#6139 of 6241 03 explorer power door lock problems by 1sttimeford Nov 15, 2008 (1:42 pm)
I am having trouble with the driver's side door lock control that is mounted on the door. The rocker control will not lock or unlock the doors unless the engine is running. Key FOB and door key pad work fine anytime. Also, the puddle lamp on the driver's side no longer works (bulb is fine). The key warning chime continually sounds when the vehicle ignition is off, all doors are closed, and the key is still in the ignition slot. Any ideas? Are all these related?
#6140 of 6241 '02-XLT - ABS light On and Cruise Control does not work by dublinca Dec 02, 2008 (12:18 pm)
I recently changed all 4 brakes and resurfaced rotors at the Ford dealer in Livermore CA. After I pick the Explorer, ABS light comes on after driving for a few minutes and now the Cruise does not work also. I took it back the next business day to the Livermore dealer and told it will cost me $180.00 for some electrical switch that goes on the master cylinder. computer code: C1440 -- Pressure difference - Transducer Circuit failure.   I never had any problem in my car related to ABS or Cruise Control and dealer says it not their fault... its a coincidence... I can't seem to buy that. Does anybody know which part is this and if I can replace it myself...Ford Part #. and or image??
#6141 of 6241 1996 Ford Explorer by Happy1125 Dec 03, 2008 (10:03 am)
My truck is a standard I stalled out and could not start. If i bypass wires on the solenoid i can get it to start. Someone said it could be the neutral safety switch. Is there anyway i can get a diagram or find someway to locate where the problem might be. i thank you very much for any help possible
#6142 of 6241 windshield wiper by ajmtbm Dec 21, 2008 (1:05 pm)
2002 explorer.   when it was a couple years old i noticed that when cold the driver side windshield wiper didn't seem to work well. took it to the dealer they replaced the wiper blade. helped a bit.   now i notice if i pull in on the base of the washer arm, the whole units moves - i think this is why it doesnt wipe well (passenger side doesnt do this - it is tight).   does anyone know if there is an easy way to tighten this up... maybe its as easy as tightening a bolt somewhere?   thanks
#6143 of 6241 Accessory plugs will not work by mab5916 Dec 26, 2008 (6:52 am)
I have a 2002 Ford Explorer. The accessory plugs (cell chargers, GPS, chargers, etc.) have stopped working. Neither plug will work, front/rear. I checked the fuses under the dash and could not find any that needed replacing. Any suggestions or what specific fuse I should look at? Thanks
#6144 of 6241 Vibration when Turning Right by tulsahog Dec 27, 2008 (5:53 am)
On a 2002 Explorer with 80k miles, when I turn right at very low speed, there is a slight vibration. It goes away as soon as wheel turned back toward center and not noticeable any other time.   U-Joint or other problem? Replies to this message: Fordnomore1 (Jan 02, 2009 12:33 pm)
#6145 of 6241 Re: I think it's the clutch pack [jezima] by Fordnomore1 Jan 02, 2009 (12:29 pm)
Replying to: jezima (Oct 27, 2008 7:48 am) Trade it in while you can. This is only the beginning. I have a 2004. What you are experiencing is the rear wheel bearings going bad on you. The next will be the front wheel bearings. Each side will run you in the neighborhood of $260.00 ea. Then you will have the rear end go out on you which will cost you another $1500.00 in repairs that will not hold up.

Replying to: tulsahog (Dec 27, 2008 5:53 am) What you have is a front wheel bearing going out . Look at spending $260.00 for parts and labor. Most likely both sides will need repairing. This will double your cost of $260.00.
