    a/c issues

    I don't have any codes. I do know the MAX door isn't working correctly, but should that cause a problem with the A/C? How can the back be cold and the front not be cold with excellent air flow?

    Is my tranny shot

    Hey all, Wife had the '02 Explorer (4.0 v6 awd) out on Friday night. Pulled out of the shopping center and came to a stop. BANG! She said it sounded like they got rear ended. Anyway now the tranny slips big time. She nursed it home. I took it for a drive yesterday and it is slipping...

    Please help, I don't know how to trouble shoot this

    I am going to crawl under there this weekend and see if I can find any thing unusual. Do you think putting the back end on jack stands, going in neutral and turning things by hand would provide any details? Thanks.

    Please help, I don't know how to trouble shoot this

    OK.. that I can do.. I think I have the general idea of what to look for if it is the shaft but anything specific I can look for when I have it apart? And if it isn't the shaft what should I look for in the diff? Assuming that those are the only two things that this can be.

    Please help, I don't know how to trouble shoot this

    Thanks. I get that it is in the rear some where. The C/V or the diff. But... i won't just start swapping parts. There has to be a way to properly trouble shoot this so I 'KNOW' what the problem is, then I can take the needed steps to correct the problem. Still looking for trouble shooting...

    Please help, I don't know how to trouble shoot this

    OK. I will do some driving testing. what would or why would the light be coming on then? How long does it take to pull these things on average. I am pretty handy with a wrench.

    Please help, I don't know how to trouble shoot this

    ok.. cool.. I really appreciate that tip. I can do the swap easy enough I am sure. My question is, is there a easy way to trouble shoot the C/V see which side needs to be swapped out?

    Please help, I don't know how to trouble shoot this

    IFS?? Sorry I don't know what that is. If it is my C/V how do I check to be sure? Can I open something up or look and see if I get under there?

    Please help, I don't know how to trouble shoot this

    Hey all, 2002 Ford Explorer 4.0 4x4 For a while now there has been a clicking coming from the back end. I have never been able to find it and it hasn't really been a problem. Seems to only happen when turning corners. I always thought that I would find it one day. The last couple of...

    Sunroof leaking!!!

    in my case the tray was over filling. if you are getting water in from the drivers side floor area I would think you might have a cowl, windshield leak or maybe the drain hose is not secure to the sunroof tray on that corner. you will have to take a hose on a nice day and spray your vehicle...

    Sunroof leaking!!!

    after having the dealer look at it and replacing the seal and still not able to fix it I decided I would just do it my self. Sad that they couldn't fix this to. Anyway basically under the sun roof is a tray. The tray has four drains, one in each corner. Each drain is a hose that runs...

    What is this called? Part number?

    that is kind of what I was thinking but I wanted to check. I need to start trying to find one. Ford sells it for about $100. I wonder what it will go for at the part yards? Any ideas?
