Hi mate. I had exactly the same problem with my 2000 North Face. Again, rear door drivers side. The switch is inside the catch in the door. To save me having to pull it all out, for the time being, I just took off the door card and cut the wires to the door switch. Now everything works as...

Hi all, Due to the fact that I am unable to sell my LS400 Lexus, I have been forced to sell the Explorer. That and the fact that my wife says it is too difficult to get in and out of :) If anyone's interested, it's on Ebay, item no. 190493667769. Thanks Mike

I bought another "resistor pack" from Chris and will be fitting it this weekend....hopefully. Driving lamp has been fitted mate, and is fine. Thanks Mike

Well done with that mate.... You must be pleased :) Mike

Grob, Good luck with the diagnosis tomorrow mate! Let us know how it goes!!! Mike

I too have a 2000 North Face and think the lights are.....rubbish... I'm looking to upgrade soon! What bulbs do we have??? H4? Thanks Mike

Hi all. I had (and still do) a 1998 MKIV Lexus LS400 (the one with built in colour sat nav) but fancied a 4x4. I bought myself a 2000 Explorer and I do like it. However, the Lexus has not yet sold in Autotrader. What do I do? Keep trying to sell the Lexus (reducing the price if required)...

I've been out and checked and yes the balljoints are separate from the arm. Bloody Haynes manual gets it wrong again :( I just someone to do it now :) Thanks Mike

Does anyone know of anyone local(ish) to Reading that would take on this job? Thanks Mike

Cheers guys, I might give it a go. I need to jack it up first and make sure that it is faulty as I am only going by the last MOT advisory (before I owned the car). I do have a slight knock as I go over bumps, so I reckoned that's the case. Thanks again, Mike

Thanks for the reply!!! Sorry, I forgot to say the car is a 2000 North Face. Does that make any difference? Thanks Mike

Hi all, I may need to change one of my front lower balljoints in the near future. My question is, can you just change the balljoint, or do you need to replace the lower arm. An ad on Ebay lists lower balljoint for Ford Explorer 1995-2005, but the Haynes manual states "1995 and later...

Grob, You can get the hub and the sensor on "the Bay" for £89.95. I think I may have to do one of mine soon. Also, A1Auto have a good tutorial video on "the Tube" on how to fit it :) Thanks Mike

Is the "fan motor speed pack" the thing that looks like coiled resistors that fits into the fan motor assembly? If so, Chris, have you got a good one of those laying about? Thanks Mike

Good luck to you both with your MOT's (all three of them). Mike

Nice! I do like the side exit exhausts..... Very nice :) Mike

Bert, Did you call Duncan? If so, how did you get on. I may have to go and see him soon as I need an idler pulley. Thanks Mike

Hi all, Happy New Year UK EX Owners, let's make an extra effort to get some of us together this year!!! Thanks Mike

Bert, I have PM'd you Duncans mobile number and I would love to come with you if you go up to see him. Sounds like you may have thermostat problems and intake gaskets too. Thanks Mike

Happy New Year one and all!!! Mike

GRoB, I have a 2000 North Face and I am sure I don't have the relay box in the back. I have had trouble with the interior light switches since I got the car. Took me this long to work out which one and bypass it. All the time my trusty Lexus LS400 has been sat out in -8, not been started for...

Did this ever happen? I'd be up for it too if we can get something up in the new year. A few people on here not too far from me too. Mike

Good result.....don't you just love days like that? Mike

I have just been out and sorted this. When I opened ANY door, the car beeped, with the exception of the rear drivers side door. This lead me to think that this was the door causing the problem. Not wanting to pull off the latch, I cut the wires going to the door ajar switch. Problem...

Bert, Welcome, you are not far from me :) You could try Duncan in Aylesbury. He just did my intake gaskets for me...Yesterday (Bank Holiday). Mike
