Hello everyone,
I've been searching the forums but can only find this for 1st-3rd gen. I have a 2006 explorer 4x4, and I want to know if the "brown wire mod" is possible for this year, and if so, if there's a how-to.
For those of you who don't know what the "brown wire mod" is, it basically allows you to interrupt the full-time 4wd (awd) system for us 4x4 owners so that we can run in just 2wd. I've heard it really helps with gas mileage. If you want to go back to AWD or engage 4wd Hi/Lo, just flip the switch and you're back to normal.
