Hello Everyone,
I have a 99 explorer and have a couple of electrical problems. Before I go to the dealer I wanted to see if you all may be able to give me some help in fixing this myself.
A couple months ago I noticed we had a rear brake light out. So I went and bought the bulbs and discovered it wasnt the bulb that was broken. Next stop was the fuse block... No blown fuses? What the hell?
So theres my first problem....
Secondly, my wife had noticed that sometimes the turn signal would stop working and/or stay lit when she would use it... No biggy.
But when smoke started coming out of the steering column whenever this happened, I realized we may have a bigger problem on out hands.
I already searched the recalls and theres nothing related to either problems.
Can someone help me fix these wiring gremlins myself?
TIA!!
Matt
