So, I haven't posted in this forum just yet. Thought I would take the time and offer up a quick fix to several annoying symptoms. I bought a 94 XLT in November 2012. The truck ran well, but pinged real hard as is common in this vehicle. Symptoms began when I moved from the Bay Area to...

Hi all, Looking for a little help here. I took my car to a mechanic to have the bearings and hub assembly changed on my 2003 Explorer, 4.0, V6, XLT. All 4 tires were off to check brakes etc. As soon as I picked it up, the cruise control had stopped working. It had been working until then...

Hey everyone, I just changed out the recall switch for the cruise control on my X. I found a new harness at the local junkyard out of another 2nd gen. My old switch only had one fuse but the new one has two. It hooked right up and for the first time in years, I now have cruise control again...

The cruise control on my 02 Ex 4.0L 4wd has always been a joy to have until now. When I press "Coast" to slow down it now accelerates like I pressed "Set." One mph for a tap and continuous if I hold it down. Anyone else run across this "gremlin?" I'm thinking the steering wheel mounted switch or...

I just purchased a 2002 Sport Trac over the weekend. I got it cheap, and the truck was a mess! I stripped the interior and cleaned the everloving heck out of it. There was a layer of funk on everything, so when I noticed the cruise control buttons on the steering wheel were sticky, I just...

1994 Ford Explorer. When I turn on the blinkers, wipers, roll down the window, and even turn the steering wheel, the cruise control disengages or slows down. I originally thought it was a cruise control issue but today I noticed that when I turned on the right blinker the RPMs increased up...

I am new to this site and drive a 1995 Eddie Bauer 4WD Explorer that I bought brand new. I have 335K mostly trouble free miles on it. I have a problem with the cruise control that cycles between acceleration and coast about once a second or two. The speedometer reading is way off, the trip...

Hello I recently had an engine put in my 98 ford explorer everything works great but the cruise control won't work. At first when I turned it on the cruise control light turned on then off immediately. Now it's not even doing that. It worked when the previous engine was in. It's the 4.0 v6 ohc...

Hi I have a 2005 Ford Explorer and the Cruise Control has stopped working. When I try to engage the Cruise Control via the steering wheel switch, the indicator light on the dashboard doesn't turn on and the cruise control doesn't work. I was trying to find the fuse for the Cruise Control, but...

I changed the stop switch on the master cylinder back in '10 after reading about a similar problem on this site. It worked for a couple years but recently the problem returned. Yesterday I installed a new Motorcraft switch but it didn't fix the problem. Sometimes it will come on when the...

For your consideration.......... Have a NOS Ford Cruise Speed Control Kit. Part # F1TZ9A818A Kit will fit 1991-1994 Ford Explorer & Ranger trucks. Also fits 1989 & 1990 Bronco II. This is the kit that Ford dealers installed when the cruise was not installed from the factory. Bought this...

Greetings everyone, This is my first post in here. I'm a bit concerned about the cruise control on my car. Mine is the 2012 limited Explorer in Dubai, UAE, with adaptive cruise control. Whenever I set the cruise, the outcome is always 2 or 3 km/hr short on the speedometer indicator...

Hello, I have a '92 Explorer Eddie Bauer. I want to thank all of you that have posted over the last few years. I have used many of your tips and much of your advice to keep my baby running well. Now to today's problem. I was notified by a passing car that I had no brake lights. What...

Thanks to all the great info on here, this is my first post. I joined on New Years Day of this year, and haven't had to post...until now! I purchased my 98 Ex the week after Christmas, and I have been "lurking" since then, getting all the factory stuff working like it should. The very last...

My when I turn my cruise control on then press the "set" button, the "cruise" light just flicks - a split second blink (You have to be looking for it.). I have had the steering wheel switches replaced by Ford and it worked for nearly a year. Then it began to intermittantly fail until now it is...
