I have a 98 3.0 Ranger 2wd auto that needs a y pipe. Can I use one from a 2004 3.0 manual?? It would save me big bucks over a new one. Thanks

Winshield Washer Pump by buster15

My Ranger XLT 4.0 L washer fluid comes out with low pressure. I put as new pump on today (mounted in the bottom of the fluid reservoir on the firewall side). This made no improvement. It squirts out about 3" up on the window.
 
Any suggestions? No, its not frozen or clogged.
Can the switch be dirty?

I have 1999 4x4 Ford Ranger with newer (35,000 miles) 3.0 V6 motor. DTC P1309 showing up. Truck runs like a top. I did notice that temp gauge moves up and down slightly during driving since engine light tuned on. Needle has always gone just beyond the "C" on gauge. Does heat sensor need to be replaced? What could it be?

01 Ranger Wipers/Speedo/dome light dont work by jburdine

The Wipers, Speedometer and dome light don't work in my 2001 Ford Ranger. I replaced the wiper switch and checked the fuses to no avail. The problem started when my dome light was staying on and I pulled the bulb so not to run the battery down. Anyone have any fixes? Thanks

Well, the dome light problem is the door open/closed switch. It is not on the front door jam, as on older cars, it is inside the door. You have to pull the door panel. It's somewhere on or close to the mechanism connected to the outside door handle. These switches get dirty or completely fail.
Some people say a heavy dose of spray WD40 or elecrical cleaner from outside the door, thru the hole under the handle, can clean the switch enough to get it working again. This should have nothing to do with the wipers or speedometer.
 
Is your ABS light on? Speedometer and ABS sensor can sometimes be related. The ABS sensor in the rear differential may be failed, or just dirty with metal grit. I would think there would be ABS codes set, if it is failed. Pulling the ABS codes is different, I think, from pulling the 'regular' 'check engine codes'. Overall, I don't have a good recommendation on the speedo or wiper problems.

wet carpet drivers side by liman1

I have a 2003 Ranger standard cab. The carpet on the driver's side under the mat is wet, the padding seems wet too. I bought the truck new and it has been babied. Only 14000 miles. I would appreciate hearing any ideas as to what might be the cause. I looked under the truck and didn't see anything obvious. The dealer is having me bring the truck in on Friday, that is the day their water leak specialist is in. Thanks in advance.
