Hello,
I have an 2004 Eddie Bauer Edition Ford Explorer with the 4.6L V8 AWD.
Some things I have notice is that it likes to stall out when I hold the coast button down on the cruise control. Usually slowing from 35mph to 30mph. I really notice this at night even when I'm slowing from 55mph my dashlights get dim and I see the RPMs drop. If I continue to hold the button down it eventually stalls the vehicle and all the warning lights are on. Has anyone found a fix for this problem. My 01 taurus doesn't do this so why should my explorer? Also The other problem I have is when going 45mph or 70mph. I get this high pitch tone sound that comes from the instrument cluster. Its so annoying I have to accelerate or decrease my speed just so it doesn't make that sound. And where I live some of the high way speed limits are 70 mph. So I would like to get to the bottom of it. If anyone knows anything on these problems please let me know.
Thanks
