Idk if anyone pointed this out but if you bought some version of a “universal 433 TPMS” they would be blank meaning you would have to flash them with an Ford Explorer ID first such as “1D67” before you make the explorer learn their position such as right front. The aftermarket 433 tpms sensors...

As stated, the shutters are not supposed to be spring loaded. However the arm was missing half of it (the side connected to the motor was never there). The half that was there was just long enough to stick against the core support making it spring close. Took them a week and a half to figure it...

From what I'm reading, they should be shut when the coolant temp is less than 90c. All the way open when sitting still and the coolant temp is above 90c. Any time you have the a/c on the shutters will be all the way open if your stopped and partially closed at highway speeds.

I just went to the gas station and back... The way there (shutters closed). Runs 3/4 the way up the gauge and seems what I thought was "normal" On the way back with something jammed in there holding the shutters open. Gauge less than 1/2, a/c works 10x better than it ever has and I noticed that...

Yeah, looks like there is some sort of actuator that's supposed to open/close them. I can't imagine them supposed to be closed with the car idling/ fans running and the temp almost pegged. The feel like they are spring loaded to close, I jammed something in there an the temp fell to normal in a...

Well..... Just figured it out. There is some flap thing made into my front grille that blocks air from going thru the radiator that was closed. I manually opened it. Is it supposed to open/close automatically?

My fan "noise" is the electric fan running. like a normal electric fan on a car...... Wooooooooooooooo No screeching or bad bearing noise. I just started it up, both fans are electric and both sound like there are on high

I searched though the first 15 pages of this section of the forum without anyone saying else saying that they are having issues but I though I was ask. Anyone else having overheating issues in a new explorer? Mine has 5600 miles on it and randomly overheats. I can hear the fan and its got...

According to car and driver's review the retail version has a 123mph electronic governor. The 2016 Ford Police Interceptor Utility will go ~165mph. I'm defiantly not comfortable taking any 4wd SUV near any of those speeds

Speed limiter is set at 125mph?

Very good find! We told the dealer we want a police model with regular console. They told us the regular explorer is the only way to get the console. Im just going to put in a relay and rob off the main power wire Ive got ran for my siren and jump off some off the back of the fuse panel to...

I'm definitely ok with the lights not working when the key is off, I haven't figured out where I'm going to mount the speaker yet... I will post a pic or two when I figure it out. I like to put 4-6 lights on the front and at least 4 on the rear of our unmarked cars. Sounds like I should have...

Also does the side of the console just snap off? This is where I'm putting everything. I also have a digital IBR radio but our guys just chatter on it and it's too big to mount inside the console.

I think my siren controller is a federal signal as-422/6s fs, I found it in a closet in the PD in like 2005, and I'm installing it on my 4th cruser.... I do remember it having like 4 power wires for the main unit that I just hooked all together, then put an inline fuse and then hook that to the...

I don't want to have the radio on, flashlight charging, or the smart siren light control to have power on it without the key on. If I run a lead to the battery everything would stay on and I would have battery drain. Fuse 46 goes to the trailer tow brake controller and is disigned to handle...

It's a base model ... I assume just because it has no fog lights and all the paperwork refers to it as just "explorer".

I have a 2016 ford explorer (non-police) model. We ordered a regular one for me (police detective) so I could have the console. So first thing I did was take the 3rd row seating out. None the less, Im trying to wire up a kenwood TK-840 (10amp fuse),a stream light flashlight charger (5 amp...

It was a "U" !!!!!

Thanks guys http://www.wsaz.com/news/headlines/South_Charleston_Credit_Unit_Robbed_Police_Chasing_Suspect_122675519.html

1997. Guy in jail

im thinking the 9th character... the check digit is X or 0-9

the 5 star twisting rim is called the "variety"?

So I guess I need to add a year more of explorers to look though..... Those wheels on the XLT in 95

How about the wheels ..... ? Advalible in 95? Great info so far, thanks Is there a vin decoder online that would tell me the color..... The local dealer offered to look them up, but I figured that if I could do it faster if i had one

Ok so if it's a 96 the 4.0l engine code would be x for the 10th and if it's a 97 the the 4.0l engine code will be E for the 10th Great info on the 11th

Are u saying if I'm right about the placement of the paint peeling and I'm thinking it's a 4.0l ...... Ur saying it's a 4.0l OHV meaning the 8th character is a X.... Also I didn't think those wheels were advilable till 96. Am I hearing something about the explorer not being made in all the...

Are u saying the 97 didn't have the 4.0l ? How ab

Im figuring a few explorer nuts may be able to help us with this VIN number.... We find the vehilce, we will find our robber. Each VIN number we figure out brings me closer, its got a WV inspection sticker on it so im going to do a partial VIN number search and them goto each one if I got to.

Well this guy robbed a few banks, this is one of the detectives on the case. Why would 11# be U or Z? that would cut my results down by about 80% Is the XLT prone to the OHV engine or the SOHC

So any how, I am tring to track down a vehilce ... backwards. I have a few pics and here is what I think... pre rear facelift (plate on bumper), 96 or newer sytle aluminum wheels, XLT package (chrome grille/bumpers w-ground effects), 4.0l engine (paint peeling from just drivers side of hood)...
