    Problems with Door Locks / Ajar

    Thanks, mine is working again! I drenched the door latch mechanism with a silicone lubricant, closed and opened the door a dozen times, and ***Poof!*** she's working again. Always the driver's door. Probably because it's the most used. I'll resort to pulling the door panel next time, this...

    Problems with Door Locks / Ajar

    Same problem here (again) . Comes and goes. It's the driver door 'cuz the boing boing boing starts as soon as I put the key in the ignition. I thought cleaning the little brass holes in the door support would stop it. Doesn't. -- Chuck

    Towing questions

    Anyone installed an aftermarket transmission cooler like the B&M SuperCooler? I'm pushing GCVWR towing a 4800 pound trailer and know the transmission needs to run cool. Transmission temperature gage anyone? Thanks, -- Chuck

    Relay Cycling in rear of '02 XLT

    A relay (I'm guessing) in the back of the truck has started cycling on a 1-second sequence. Sounds like a grandfather clock: click-clock-click-clock. The sound is coming from the left rear in the third seat area. Started on Sunday, then went away. Back with a vengence today. I don't know...

    Good to go. Not sure what fixed it, but it works. I gave the latch a shot of grease when she came open. -- Chuck

    Hood won't open

    I'll have to look for bolts in the grill. Cable handle pulls full travel. I suspect it's no longer connected to the latch. The dealer may get to do the oil change I need this week. -- Chuck

    Hood won't open

    The cable release on my '02 XLT 4-door seems to be disconnected, nothing happens when I pull it. Tried pushing down on the hood while someone else pulls the release. Nothing. :confused: How do I get the hood open? There's gotta be a bypass somewhere. Thanx, -- Chuck

    Door always ajar?

    I've been having erratic problems with this. Works one day, not the next. I don't know what goes on inside the door, but I cleaned the little plastic strut which keeps the door from opening too far. Had dirty grease on it. Noted there appeared to be brass contacts in 1/16" holes, so I...

    2002 Exlplorer not shifting to 4x4 from dash

    Joe -- Thanks for the reply! My transfer case is fixed as well. I washed the truck. No kidding! The truck was salt encrusted from a couple of months road salt. Normal quickie external car wash weekly, but the transfer still cut out about 10 days ago. Going to a wedding I had a $12...
