    '00 5.0 : Vss, oss, abs, question

    I engine swapped my ranger using a 2000 explorer 5.0. All wire harness and components are from explorer. The speedo and cruise are not working now and it shifts hard AF, all was good prior to removing stuff from the explorer. The abs does work so I would assume the rear sensor is functioning...

    Gremlins in Speedometer/Odometer

    My speedometer/odometer is having an intermittent problem. Most of the time they work OK, but every so often, they just stop. I notice that the speedometer needle goes all the way to zero and the odometer stops turning over. Sometimes it will stop and start repeatedly then just quit. When I...

    2002 Explorer Sport Trac noise and speedometer drops

    I have a 2002 Explorer Sport Trac. It started making a noise when I get to about 45 or so, sometimes. To me it kind of sounds like the motor is rushing but the tach is on 1. The speedometer drops to 20 and the noise continues until I slow down below 20, then I can take off again with no noise...

    O/D light blinking Transmission Shop can't read codes

    I've got a 95 XLT 4.0 OHV 4x2, and the O/D light is blinking and it won't shift into overdrive. It didn't start flashing the O/D off light until one day when I was pulling a trailer with only a push lawn mower in it. (nothing heavy) I figured that connecting the trailer to the plug that supplies...

    VSS question

    I have a 1996 Ford Explorer 4x4 and the speedo works for about 5-10 mins of driving then bounces a lot and then completely stops. The odometer doesn't work at all.

    Speedometer issues

    a short time ago my speedometer stopped working properly. It isn't dead but it's not accurate. It reads over and will jump all the way up randomly. It will say I'm doing 70/80 when I'm doing about 35/40. I'm not sure what to look at or replace and I'm pretty uneasy driving in a cop thick area...

    4r70w swap. New issues

    Hi, I lurk a lot and usually find my answers. Not this time. I have a 1996 Explorer xlt 5.0 2wd. I recently swapped my transmission. The donor transmission was from a wrecked 2001 f150 4.2l 2wd. I swapped over the mlps, and both speed sensors. It gets better mpg, runs and drives better than it...

    Speedometer is crazy

    Alright so my 1992 explorer isn't super moded but it is running a little bit bigger tires 30x9.5 so I thought I'd put it here. But on my way to school I hit a bad pot hole at about 60mph or so and for a split second the rear abs light came on it kicked the radio out for a sec and now my...

    Help with spedo after trans swap

    Hello, I just completed an auto to manual trans swap on an 02 explorer sport. It works great now... mostly. The speedometer and odometer does not work anymore (it did before). I was under the impression it derived the signal from the transfer case or rear axle, not the transmission? Any one...

    Speedometer Works But Odometer Does Not

    This is my first post on here and I've used the explorer forum countless times for all of my problems but I am at a stalemate. Out of the blue my 97 Explorer xlt 5.0 AWD odometer has stopped working with ~107000 miles. I thought that it was the worm gear, like many other people have delta with...

    Gauges are wacky!

    1996 Explorer XLT 4.0L I began this saga trying to fix an instrument cluster where the odometer and trip meter did not work and the tachometer worked intermittently. All other gauges worked correctly. I bought a used cluster, removed the old one and replaced it with the one I recently...
