    4x4 Transfer Case Module Help

    I still have the original bolted in its bracket still. Just don't know if a fuse or relay was tripped and I missed it. I checked all fuses and they check out. Didn't bother checking inside the drivers compartment fuses as my ABS, moon roof and GEM wouldn't be working if the fuses blew. Is it...

    4x4 Transfer Case Module Help

    Abs light is on with both rear wheel speed sensors. However I have no TC or SC equipped on my rig. So it's just that one diff mounted sensor. I have the module disconnected since March 2014. The reason I disconnected was that every time I made low speed turns (at intersections) I would get a...

    Whining sound coming from engine compartment

    Never had the transmission apart, had no issues with it since I owned it so didn't bother doing anything to it. Though I had the fluid checked and it's still good. Other than that that's about it.

    I found a manual at the wreckers, book and everything with the protective case, just in case I need it again, Thanks for the link.

    4x4CM Fire!

    Sadly I'm the third owner and sadly one of those two previous owners thought it was a brilliant idea to keep the owners manual and the cargo cover.

    4x4CM Fire!

    I do have a clue on fuses, I have modded the electrical lighting on this vehicle. However the electrical box is different as you know each model they change it around and add more useless electronics. A number 5 slot isn't going to be the same on another vehicle. All are different. I'm...

    4x4CM Fire!

    This is why I'm on here as I went to Ford any they were useless as ever. Um I dunno, sorry sir I'm just a parts guy I dunno. Last time I check 4x4cm is a part. Clearly they just hire people with no parts background knowledge whats so ever. Or too lazy to look up part numbers. I never go to Ford...

    2004 4.6L Transmission vs 4.0L Transmission

    It's also safe to note that the 4.6 in the f150 is a different engine. 4.6/5.4/6.8 triton series while the Explorer uses the 4.6 2v Modular like the Mustang(99-04 GT) just de-tuned.

    BWM Brown Wire Mod 3rd Gen

    I haven't done this mod but I have disconnected the 4x4 module as it has gone bad. I can tell the difference that it is in 2WD because the rear wheels slip alot(mostly in rain) than before I disconnected. I also heard somewhere that 4x4 auto is essentially 75% power to the rears and 25% to the...
