    Hello! So I thought I would check really quickly with you guys on opinions with what's going on. My transmission has been shifting really rough lately.

    Time to say good-bye!

    So, after 18 years of faithful service, it is time to say good-bye to my first brand-new car - my 1999 EB Explorer! I still remember the day we picked her up from Jordan Ford in San Antonio, fresh off the vehicle transport from the factory as she was a special order. She has performed admirably...

    Should I buy.

    HI guys! I'm looking at a 99 EB with 168k on it. It's in pretty good shape except for a tear on drivers seat bottom(109 to replace) and the cruise doesn't work(I think I can fix). The CEL is on and code indicates downstream o2 sensor bank 2. I've got to be able to pass Ga emissions so the CEL...

    96 Explorer - Eddie Bauer - Trailer Harness

    I have a 96 EB and I know there was a trailer harness at one time. Previous owner gave away a wheelchair lift on the back of it, and the people who took it, took part/all of the harness. When I went looking today, I could find nothing of it. I did find a strange looking connector (see...

    On/Off Rocker switch found in engine compartment, what is it?

    Went to put in hood struts today and found a switch in the engine compartment laying on the headlight access panel. I have no idea what it may go to. I had the car in a shop about 2 weeks ago for a oil change and a issue with my fog lights. http://imgur.com/jWd23uU http://imgur.com/jojrtDa...

    What Sensor(s) should I change? 2010 Eddie Bauer Edition V6 4WD

    Codes: P0135 P0141 P0155 P0161 P0403 P0443 P0645 I need to know: How many O2 sensors? How many upstream? How many downstream? What sensor should be replaced first based on above codes? What needs to be changed for a/c clutch relay? There is no gas cap on the car so EVAP code is odd unless...

    Courtesy dome light/door switch problem

    Hi everyone, has anyone ever had this problem? My interior done lights (all 3, front, back, cargo) don't come on when I open the doors, but they turn on manually with their individual switches. Also, the dimmer switch by the headlight knob does absolutely nothing. Any ideas?
