2008 Ford Explorer XLT
This RSC light and ABS and Traction light comes on making this chime noise. Its like every 5 mins it goes off and comes. This happens over and over. How can it be fixed and is it dangerous to travel with it like this.
 






Most likely one of the ABS sensors is bad.
If front, then you need to replace the whole hub assembly, if the rear - it will be the ABS tone ring.
Either way, have it scan which wheel is throwing the code.
I think you can pull the fuse for RSC or ABS, and then you just don't have ABS brakes, and rollover protection.
 












My 2008 explorer had several codes. Narrowed it down to two possible issues O2 sensors and PCV valve. Replaced both and now my truck is really running ruff and smoking bad with codes for O2 sensors on.
