    Turn signal dosent flash but stays on.

    THe flasher unit is for both sides. If none of your blinkers work, just stay on, then check your flasher unit. If only one side doesn't work, check bulbs.

    Parts truck

    Its a 4X4, automatic. I'm going to look at it in the next couple of days. I'll let you know more then. My guess is its the 4.0L, and I think its an XLT. I just wanted to know if there was any interest for parts before I went to get it and spent any money on getting it to my house.

    Thanks for the replies, guys. I never thought about it being a ground, but I did think it might be a plug loose. Thanks again, Tony

    Headlights dying while driving

    I bought a 92 XLT 4X4 explorer last February. As I was driving it home the night I purchased it, the headlights starting going out, then coming back on while driving it. February + New Hampshire = Frost heaves. Very bumpy. I noticed if I held the High beams on(as if I was flashing them at...

    Need power mirror schematic

    Its the switch, inside are tiny pieces of springy metal that move when the switch is move. If they are slightly out of line, the mirror only works partially or not at all. easiest fix? Replace it with a used one off e-bay. I payed like $9 for the whole switch panel last year. Tony

    2000 Explorer smoke from steering column

    I've got a multifunction switch off a 92. Don't know if they are the same though. Not everything changed over the years, just don't know what yours looks like. As far as changing it. Disconnect the battery, then go into the column. Haynes manual was decent for mine (92), but not the best...

    I'm BACK!!!!!

    Welcome back. As far as plowing with it, I wouldn't, not even a driveway and small parking lot. Plowing eats small 4X4's and their trannys, that is if you get snow like we do in NH. I'm assuming you do since you're in MI.

    Speedometer bounce

    And I thought it was only on the first generation explorers. Mine quit once winter was over here. I don't really know what caused it. It was probably frozen in mine, because for awhile, we had trouble getting temps in the +degrees her this winter. Anyway, welcome to the forum.
