2011 explorer ltd 2wd CHECK ENGINE light on / off
My vehicle is turning on the check engine light and after a couple of hour light turn off. But it not turn off while vehicle is in motion I have noticed if I turn off the vehicle for more than an hour and turn it on again chek engine light its gone.
I went to a ford dealer while light was on and they connect the scanner to find the problem, according to ford technician, the scanner said that o2 sensor #1 and #2 was faulty so I replaced both sensor for OEM sensors not replacement a lot of money but the vehicle keep doing the same thing. I have noticed that the vehicle turn on the chk engine light ONLY when I fill the gas tank (not when I add a little gasoline is only if I fill up the tank.. After gas tank is full vehicle do not turn on as usual I have to press the star botton a couple of time and it takes more time than usual to turn on.....then after a couple of minutes check engine light turns on..................I explained this to the ford dealer but they have no Idea of what could be the problem, they suggested not to fill up the tank.
I went to different gas stations/brands and I always put the better gas type on the tank...but if I fill up the tank I have the same problem
I have not put the vehicle sacaner again after I replaced the O2 sensors #1 and #2 because I dot not want to waste more money replacing parts that do not solve the problem...
thank you in advance for your help !!
