power

Replaced the power steering pump in my 1996 Explorer 4.0L. The new pump has a fitting pre-installed on the reservoir that looks like the large half of the fitting in the attached photo. The fitting in the photo seems to be two pieces, but I cannot separate the fitting despite using some serious...

I have been working on swapping the interior from a stock explorer into my 2017 police interceptor. I noticed before I took the driver seat out of the parts explorer it wouldn’t move backwards. I have now swapped the seat into my PIU and it still doesn’t move. All the other functions of the seat...

2014 Ford Explorer just purchased with a 3rd row seat folded over and stuck, no power to the switch, no motor noise. Checked the under hood relay and it is getting power to the pin and that verifies the 30a fuse is good. I found a diagram online and it looks like theres another 10a fuse near the...

2013 Explorer XLT V6 AWD. 110K miles. Having an intermittent issue, sometimes it runs great and others it's sluggish/stuttering and very slow acceleration. Occasionally will have a strange whirring sound at lower RPMs also. Seems worse when rear AC is on. I changed plugs/coils, cats after P0430...

driving on highway, keyless entry pad rips off, flapping in breeze, at same time liftgate ajar message hits screen. now liftgate won't open, door locks work. but every time i stare vehicle the warning for liftgate ajar. Dealer says no connection, wants 900 for liftgate repair. the keypad coming...

2014 XLT- power tailgate will work from the dash button and from the button on the tailgate itself. Up until this week, it also worked from the key fob remote. I changed the battery in the fob, and the doors will lock and unlock and the panic button works as well, but the liftgate will not...

2004 Explore 4.6L Going down the road and suddenly the voltage climbs to about 17-18 volts, charge warning appears, then the instrument panel goes completely dead for a bit. Panel display comes back and voltage is normal briefly, then climbs again and the process repeats itself. New alternator...

Had multiple codes come up (14) all dealing with evap, air flow. tested the MAF plug and no power is going through. Wires are showing low voltage on 5 of them and 12 v on one which is power. someone spliced in left bare wires to MAF plug. Need to get new plug in and figure out how to wire it...

Ok, so I'm having a strange issue where my 1997 Explorer 4.0L starts, idles, and runs fine, but after about 20 minutes of driving, it completely loses power and starts misfiring. It'll throw a code for the misfire and running too lean, and in pending codes, it says "P1131 Lack Of HO2S Switch –...

My 07 Limited, with the 4.6L V8, has been giving me trouble on certain kinds of driving. Around town driving doesn't see to exhibit the issue, but highway driving, where there is a lot of inclines and declines on the road is where it shows up. It seems to be most prevalent on long declines...

Can anyone find the Current Rating (Amperage) for the 110 volt Power Outlet? I want to buy a corded hand vacuum (Metropolitan Evolution Hand Vac), and it's rated at 4 amps, or 500 watts. Thank you, Wayne

All I need is the small plastic cogs or pins not sure of their name. But if you take a power window motor apart there is a metal gear that sits inside a plastic gear. Those cogs are inside the triiangular hole that is between the two gears. Gears are ok.

It is a 1993 Ford Explorer, V6 manual. As the title states, it has loss of power when accelerating, and the engine doesn’t run quite right either. It might go away after I have used it half an hour or so, so it doesn’t really seem to be just that it only happens when it is cold. It has new plugs...

Hello folks, I recently got a 21 Explorer. In my last car, (2010 Mazda) I had a couple of Ham radios installed. Just need 12V and coax line ran to the antenna. Easily located a spot to run power straight from the battery through the firewall on the last car. Had it all tucked away and tidy...

So I have a 2014 Ford Explorer, and after I turn the car on I notice there are no lights on the computer systems in the car (the speed gauge display, the gas display, all those are blacked out with no illumination whatsoever. My vehicle has the Ford Sync Ver. 2 and none of the lights are on...

Hi Everyone, I have a 2014 Ford Explorer XLT. The other day I clipped a mailbox and the mirror and cap popped off. It was an easy fix and the mirrors seem to be working fine, for the most part. They power adjust when I am doing it with the buttons on the driver side door. However, since the...

I am stumped. I have an 05 explorer xlt, 4.0 SOHC V6 with 191K miles. With about 8K in repairs In the past 6 months I have replaced, the front wheel hub assemblies, rear tie rods, upper and lower ball joints, TRANSMISSION, replaced the fuel filter, oil change/air filter, had the throttle body...

Hi Friends, I'm brand new to this forum and to doing any significant maintenance myself. Please forgive my ignorance if it jumps up in the middle of a nice dinner and parades around the room yelling obscenities. I started having power issues driving old faithful across the west. Occasionally I...

2002 Explorer 4.6, if read tons of stuff about exhaust for them but I haven' found a real answer on something. If you were to remove the cats, replace them with straight pipe then installing the o2 sensor in the same relative spot would the system work with no CEL? And with that being said...

I recently bought a 1996 Ford Explorer and my 2 front windows won't go up or down. If I use the window switches they make noise like they're trying to work but they just won't move up or down. The other problem I have is only the driver side door lock wont go up or down when I lock or unlock...

Hi all, Truck is a 2003 Explorer XLT 4.0 AWD I've been having some strange steering issues since about the middle of this year. Haven't had a lot of cash so haven't been able to do anything yet. It still drives well but to me the steering just feels super tight. I've driven our neighbors...

I recently had my power steering go out on my 2000 Ford Explorer Limited Edition 5.0 It all a sudden stopped working and I can see where the leak is coming from. Can I just replace the one line that is leaking or do I need a whole new pump. Also will it hurt the vehicle to drive it w/o PS...

I've got a 1999 limited edition explorer with the 5.0l v8 and I was wondering how many horsepowers the stock driveline can handle without dying. (any suggestions on what kind of mods to do to keep it 4wd and to not blow up with the extra power would be appreciated)

This is crazy. Just purchased a 2014 Explorer XLT pretty much loaded. Had dealership activate remote start for us as part of deal, and of course order new keys. First set of keys were 4 button with remote start, but they forgot about our power liftgate on the original remotes, so they ordered 5...

So my 94 Ex is having some window issues. The passenger front window will not roll up or down directly. I have to go down a bit, then tap up, then down a bit, and so on. And do the exact opposite when rolling it up.I notice the window tilts as it gets stuck, then when I bump the switch in the...

Hi all, I was helping someone learn how to drive today and I guess they turned the wheel to lock and held it there for too long. Now when I turn the wheel, the wheel shakes (not the car), there is a noticeable whining and surging noise only when steering, and there is also power steering fluid...

I have a 1998 XLT with 208K. Leaking oil from timing chain cover and rear main seal. Has been a great truck for us and still running strong. Since you guys have been great in the past I thought I would try again. I have built many SBC's in the past, but never a SBF. Not afraid of doing it...

In advance, thank you for any and all help and advice. Saturday, my power windows stopped working. I stopped by an advance auto parts to pick up a new fuse...Checked them both, they are fine. Both relays are also good. I took the door latch panel off and the cover to window switches, had...

Hi there. The other day i was driving to work and my entire instrument panel blacked out for roughly two seconds, and rebooted - burying the tach/speedo etc before finding the correct speed and revs. Not sure if this has anything to do with it, but it was minus 28C at the time. The next day...

I have been attempting to repair my power seats in my 2002 Explorer Eddie Bauer Edition. I am really stuck on this and am asking for help. My wife and teenage daughter need to share the car, but the driver's power seat is jammed. The motor so far seems OK - but the seat moves very slowly, and...

Hello,first off I did search, nothing that is similar to my situation. When turning sharply the engine acts like it is going to stall. I recently changed my power sterring pump (which continued to wine). after which I noticed my rpms were high about 1100-1000. I did the test for a high idle...

I just bought a 2003 Explorer. 106k, no rust and a rebuilt tranny. Now for the problem, it has no electrical power but locks. No headlights, interior lights or anything else, just locks. I put a new, fully charged battery in and tried. Nothing. Just locks. Can't even get it out of park, without...

The 12V power outlet located in the radio bezel of my 2002 Ranger XLT has quit working. I have replaced the in-dash unit and checked all the fuses I can find. No luck. Any ideas?

Proud Owner of an 1999 EB Ex. with the V8, almost 200k miles on it. I consider myself a fan of the Ford Motor. And obviously of the great Explorer. In past times I have run vs other trucks ( 2001 Jeep Cherokee, 2012 Jeep Wragler, 2007 Toyota Tacoma) with mine and I think that is almost obvious...

Please check out my video I just posted. I just noticed it tonight and the LED's have been in the truck since Saturday. Although the Duralast Gold 850CCA battery has been out sitting on the trickle charger as I was working on other items like this and that. So that could explain why I never...

Hi all, first post I just would like to be informative. Ex lost acceleration on monday afternoon while coming on to highway heard loud vacuum sound in cabin while Ex merged on to roadway slowly and eventually got up to 50mph. Tried flooring it several times with same results even at highway...

Hey all, want to say thanks first for maintaining this forum - I've been trying to fix my DD for a few weeks to no avail but I'm getting all my info from here so it's extremely helpful. Here's my problem: 1994 Ford Explorer EB, no power whatsoever. Battery test ok, 12.8V going to starter...

I blew the engine in one of my explorers (99xlt) about 6 months ago, jacked it up, stripped the engine out, yadda yadda... with the drivers window down. It is now pouring rain, haven't finished engine because I had another one to drive so it dropped low on priority list, and even though the...
