After many months of waffling I finally got around to it. Both the puddle lamp and lock switch problem were caused by broken wires in the door boot. Little did I know I'd be solving 2 problems instead of 1. The black wire with the purple stripe goes to the puddle lamp and the pink wire with...

thanks for the tip. unfortunately it began pouring rain now and without cover, it will have to wait for now. i'll check back once i'm able to check the continuity.

i have not posted in quite some time but glad to know this resource is here. for a while, the driver side puddle lamp would turn on with the other interior lamps when i'd open a door or unlocked with the remote as normal. then it started going out when i opened the driver door, only to turn...

I did not know if anyone has tried this... GM vehicles have their reverse lights come on during illuminated entry (30-60 seconds long). Some of our Explorers have illuminated entry, but just the interior and puddle lamps. Has anyone tried (or been successful) wiring the reverse lamps this...

Exactly the same picture I could have taken from mine. I rebent the end of it and reinstalled it back into the latch mechanism. I'm able to lock/unlock again, but only the outside door handle works. I had followed the process outlined in this post, but the interior door handle no longer...

similar issue having a similar problem. got the door panel and waterproofing mat aside to see where this spring came from. the end had broken off but i bent a hook back into it. now i cannot see where to reattach the ends. actually found the spring dangling inside the door latch before...

thumping noise if you hear a thumping noise about every few seconds (with the wiper on high), then it might just need a "push" to get going again. mine was on the blink, but i heard a thumping sound in the tailgate like it wanted to go but wouldn't. i tugged on the wiper along it's sweep...

i didn't bother resetting the computer, but the codes have cleared and runs great appreciate the help

thanks for the tip sure....welcome to the site

one quick thing....since ive replaced them, do i need to disconnect the battery to reset the computer? the haynes manual did not indicate whether disconnecting the battery was necessary.

success replaced both upstream o2 sensors and it everything appears to be back to normal. here is what my old sensors looked like (picture on left shows bank 1 sensor; picture on right shows both: bank 1 and 2 from left to right). i don't know how to tell if they look bad just by the look of...

ok...back to business...my apologies as my holiday season been busy i checked for vacuum leaks and am pretty confident that my injectors are ok, though i cannot be sure. i had replaced the dpfe just as a test, but it did little to fix the problem so i was able to take it back. since my last...

my mistake...i only had the two sensors from bank one being read on the scangauge. im going to set it to read the others from bank 2. ill get back after driving it a little.

i recently have been getting 3 trouble codes; only one of which is a legitimate one: p1131 - o2 sensor bank lean p0000 p0000 there is hesitation during idle and across all speed ranges (particularly @ highway speeds). using my ScanGauge II I was able to view the o2 sensor readings and its...

took 9 years i joined back in high school and used the site only occasionally (only ~170 posts over 9 years) but now i'm working full-time and slightly more mechanically inclined so i feel like i can tackle more minor maintenance stuff than before, all the while saving some $$. its a great...
