electrical

Hey all, I just joined the forum today, and I just bought my 99 Eddie Bauer V8 yesterday, and almost as soon as I got home, I started having electrical problems. :roll: The door ajar alarm kept going off, I think it's the driver side door. Checked all of them, and it kept going on and off...

Last night I disconnected the battery on my 2005 Explorer XLS and now the OD light is flashing and check transmisson message is displayed. I disconnected the battery 3 more times for about an hour each time with no change. All of the fuses check out ok and the tranny seems to be shifting...

I just bought a 2002 project explorer. It is the V6 XLT, and came with basically the base trim package for the exterior, and the completely pointless 1" receiver with 4-prong plug. My first question is... what does it entail upgrading to a factory 2" receiver with the bigger plug? Does the...

Had a 1996 4.0 4x4 with manual trans / elect. t-case. It rolled :roll: and I got a 1996 4.0 with auto trans / elect. t-case. The new one has a blown engine. So I want to put the engine out of my rolled manual into the new auto rig. I had found a thread about going from auto to manual that the OP...

Hey all, want to say thanks first for maintaining this forum - I've been trying to fix my DD for a few weeks to no avail but I'm getting all my info from here so it's extremely helpful. Here's my problem: 1994 Ford Explorer EB, no power whatsoever. Battery test ok, 12.8V going to starter...

I blew the engine in one of my explorers (99xlt) about 6 months ago, jacked it up, stripped the engine out, yadda yadda... with the drivers window down. It is now pouring rain, haven't finished engine because I had another one to drive so it dropped low on priority list, and even though the...

I've got an intermittent problem with the electrical in my stock 2005 Explorer. I've seen several threads where others have had the exact issue but never saw if or how it was resolved. Hoping someone here can point me in the right direction! The problem is with the gauges/instrument...

Hello forum. This is my first post. I did do a search on the issue and have so far been unsuccessful. I bought a new-used 2002 Ford Explorer XLT V8 yesterday with 120K miles. Gets up and goes just fine and looks real clean to boot. Unfortunately, being that I got a really good deal on...

My driver's side window stopped working with no warning at all. I let it down, as usual, and 40 miles later it wouldn't go back up. I don't hear the motor winding and it doesn't sound like its off track. And it's only the drivers side window, all the others work fine, for now. Has anyone ever...

I've had this issue a while and couldn't find it listed here. About two years ago I plugged in my phone and found that my outlet was dead. I checked the outlet on the side of the console and that was dead too. I popped the fuse cover (interior) and replaced it only to have it blow, although not...

I drove my 91 2 door sport about 30 minutes then shut it off. about an hour later, I started it up and the radio, blinkers(not the emergency flashers), power windows, and fan panel did not work. I drove for about 10 minutes then shut it off. about 2 hours later I started it and everything...

I have a 1996 Explorer. I parked this afternoon and went to turn the ignition off. The key just rotated and even came out with no change in the engine running. I disconnected the battery and it still ran. I pulled the fuel pump relay out and the engine finally quit. I removed the...

Is there a fix to voltmeters reading everywhere but in the middle? I'm trying to return things to as close to factory as possible. I had a 91 Explorer with the same problem (new alt and batt) Thanks

Hello all, I apologize for creating a new thread but I figured this would be the best way to get some answers for my problem alittle more promptly. I have a 98' Explorer 4dr XLT 4.0L SOHC as my daily driver and quite sometime ago I had pulled the fuse for the daytime running lights because they...

I recently purchased a 1996 Ford Ranger from a friend who on purchase informed me that the wiper motor did not work. I checked the fuses, they were all good. Turning on the wipers did absolutely nothing So I went ahead and purchased a new motor, removed the old, and went through the process of...

I went 4x4ing last friday on the same trail ride that I have been on 100's of times before. However I went through a 7-8 inch deep puddle about 15ft wide and my truck died. I went to start it and got nothing... I did the basic checks to see if there was water in my oil, air filter, intake...

Hey I have a 1997 explorer XLT and whenever I turn on my air conditioning the compressor turns on and off every 2-3 seconds, personally I think its an electrical problem, any ideas?
