Fuse. It was a fuse. A 25 amp fuse located in the battery junction box. And just my luck, it is the only 25 amp fuse in either of the two fuse boxes. So the clicking noise was the relays being activated by the multifunction switch, but since the fuse was blown, there was no electrical current...

My rear wiper stopped working on my 07 EB, but also the rear wiper sprayer is not working. I faintly hear a click from the wiper mechanism when I turn the wiper switch up for the wiper and also down for the wiper/sprayer. Since the both features of the switch are not working, am I looking at a...

freak, yeah i know i can do it that way, i would just rather upload them from file. Elite membership requires either having or creating a paypal account. and I don't want to create a paypal account. I might message rick and ask him how I can go about doing that.

ranger7ltr, never mind. I was looking at your IAC attachment. I see the egr pipe now. So your egr pipe doesn't point towards the throttle plate inside the manifold? I wonder if mine is supposed to be like that. It doesn't make sense that it would point towards the front caking the backside of...

freak, wow I thought that was the pintle cap! I was going to post pictures of mine, but I do not have an elite membership. ranger7ltr, the upper intake manifold on my 96 OHV looks different than yours, particularly where the egr attaches. on mine it is just a large round hole on the manifold...

freak, that one in the picture doesn't have an o-ring on the bottom. did you remove it before you took the picture?

Your cheapest route would be junkyard picking. Unless you want to pay out the nose at the stealership

New ball joints....... Sounds like fun.

Good tips Runnin'OnEmpty. But I would discourage use of any grease thicker than oil. Because if one is not careful and accidentally gets that grease in the injector opening, it will clog the internal injector filter. I usually just use clean motor oil.

Do yo have the OHV or SOHC? The EGR pipe comes into the intake manifold from the driver side and then once inside makes a 90 degree turn towards the front of the intake. So you have to rotate the manifold counterclockwise looking down. I believe when I did it, the AC compressor was in the way...

you will need 3 gaskets, the lower intake manifold gasket (sandwiched between the lower intake manifold and the fuel rail), the upper intake manifold gasket, and the throttle body gasket. Because of the EGR, it is virtually impossible to remove the upper intake manifold without removing the...

I still would have the injectors serviced while you have it all apart. They are going to get clogged sooner or later. Even if the engine runs well, it could still benefit from cleaned injectors. Yes there are two o-rings per injector. One at the top that seats in the fuel rail and another at the...

It is possible that the o-ring is so old and brittle and is cracked from the heat. To replace the o-ring, you will have to remove the upper intake manifold, and the fuel rail. Since some or all of the injectors will remain in the lower intake manifold, you might as well replace all of the...

I removed the passenger side mirror, and although the wires were different colors, the connectors fit and I was able to move the mirror with the switch.

So I used actual wiring to ground the sender wire, and my temp gauge went as far up as it could go. So a multimeter does not double as a singe wire. Canadian: the plenum you are talking about is the upper intake manifold. You can remove the temp sender without removing anything else. As for the...

Thanks Lobo. I found the temp sensor for the ecu. it is directly across from temp sender on the lower intake manifold. I will replace the sender tomorrow and cross my fingers.

I did not think of that. I will try that tomorrow. From what I can see by looking at the wiring diagram, the wires are different colors on the passenger side. Whether the positions of the wires on the passenger pigtail will match the driver side connector remains to be seen. As far the motors...

I have a 1996 Limited 4.0L with power and heated side mirrors. My driver side power mirror is inop and I don't know if the heater works. I took the mirror off and bought a 12v battery. Would anyone know how to hook up a battery to the connector to see if the motor works. I looked at a schematics...

Can someone post a picture of the temp sensor for the ECU? I have the 4.0L OHV in my 96 limited. I have heard different things on different posts. One said it was in front of the ignition coil pack and another said it was on the driver side block. Also I tried grounding out the sending unit and...

Sorry. Was wondering what COP meant???? I have the V-6. But there are general troubleshooting guidelines that u can use on almost any engine. Still trying to figure it out on my other explorer.

Call me an idiot!! I still had two of the bolts in! facepalm

To rule out ignition as the issue, I would swap the cylinder 1 plug and wire with another good cylinder. Also check the spark plug gap and inspect the overall condition of the plug. Reset the PCM by disconnecting the battery and see if you still have the issue. I would also use a stethescope to...

I would like help from someone who knows how to remove the plastic intake manifold on an 07 Explorer 4.0L V-6. I am pulling it off to get access to the fuel injectors. I have everything disconnected that I can see- EGR pipe, all vacuum lines, electrical connectors, the eight mounting bolts. But...

Its possible there is no fluid in it at all. Remove the oil pan to see if any fluid comes out. When I removed the tranny out of my 96, no fluid came out of the lines when i disconnected them, but i had the transmission pan dropped.

I have a 1996 Explorer Limited, SOHC V-6, automatic. I have issues with the speedometer needle fluctuating erratically. When I first bought the vehicle, it has just under 240,000 in the clock and the speedometer need didn't work at all. I removed the VSS and replaced the worn out plastic driven...
