Picture CMP for 4.0L Thanks guys, I've done the searches both here in this forum and at any other place I could think of. I've got pictures of the CMPs, of 5.0L CMP locations, instructions on how to fix, warnings on how attempts to fix can be screwed up, etc. These are of no help to me if...

Hi, I am having problems with the Cam position sensor on my 1996 4.0L. Intermittent squeaks, etc... I've looked and looked and can't see the darn thing. :o Does anyone have a picture? Thanks, Denis

My tires are 225x75 R15s. Those are the stock sizes for my 96 XL. I know most afficionados are running bigger tires. I have checked with a few tire specialists and the tell me I should not have any problems with these tires. Thanks, Denis

Are your daylight driving lamps working? If not, see the thread on repalcing the sensor. Good Luck, Denis

These tires were on an older Crown Vic but are super for snow and ice. It seems I have read somewhere that car tires were not suitable for a 4x4. Are they strong enough for putting on my 96 stock 4dr Explorer? Thanks, Denis

'96 DRL FOUND ! FOUND IT ! The DRL is under the LH driving light under the bumper attached to the front of the cross member just outside the bumper attachment. The bumper wraparound prevents anyone from seeing it unless you are on your back looking up. BTW, replacing the DRL seems to have...

Hi, my '96 with 140,000 kms is giving me plroblems with the elec. system. I'm located in Ontario, but the truck comes from the maritimes originally. From other posts here, I am pretty sure the problem is with the DLR module and have decided to change it. Only problem is that I cannot...

Seats from other Ford products would probably fit. I used Escort seats in a Bronco II. Measure the width of the tracks and go to a recycler. . . . Good Luck:bounce:

I have a 96 XL with auto 4WD, 133000KMs. When I put it in low range, the transmission is very noisy, expecially when turning. I tried this on solid dry ground - not pavement. I seem to recall that Ford had a service bulletin about this but cannot find it. Can anyone help on the cause...

Someone may have a better explanation than this but this is what I think happens: 1. Power goes to the gauges which are connected to the sensor. 2. When the sensor grounds, this activates the gauge (when it works of course). Power is consumed and is too low for the Check Gage to light. 3...

No, I replaced the Temp\fuel gauges cluster only. They are easy to pop out and in once the plastic is removed - about 30 minutes altogether including cleanup. But I had to buy the whole instrument cluster - that seems it's the only way the local junk yard (sorry RECYCLER) sells these things...

Check Gage and Temp Gauge: the final chaptery For Jason_25: I replaced my Temp Gauge last night. The Temp gauge works and the Check Gage light is OFF and stayed OFF going to work this morming. Total $: $190 canadian (about $110US) for an intrument cluster + both temp sensors (Replaced...

Is there any place where I could get a list of the original options on my '96? Like those the dealer has stuck in the windows of their new vehicles. I'm trying to find if mine has remote locks, start, etc.... Denis

Thanks for the help. Looks like the gauge itself is shot. Grounding turns on the "Check Gage" light but not the temp gauge itself. Now to chase down a working temp gauge . . . . Denis

Check the resistance? Even on a brand new part?

Thanks for the insights. Has anyone actually fixed this problem? Is my next step to replace the Temp gauge in the dash? All help appreciated. Denis

Back to my original question: I have changed the thermostat and both temperature sensors. Is my next move to change the temp guage????? Regards, Denis

Yes, the temperature gauge is very low. As far as I can tell it does not move from the lowest point. Denis

I just got a used 96 XL with 131Kilometers. The Check Gage light was on and off - no real pattern. And the Temp gauge flutters a bit but did not move. After checking the site here, I have now replaced both temp sensors and the thermostat with Ford parts. Check Gage light is now on constantly...
