reverse

Where is the fuse for reverse lights? Manual does not appear to show it.

Hey Forum! I have no idea where to start except that I have pulled too many transmissions on this truck. I think the truck is on its second or third A4LD. Last time, my pump was bad. I cant comment on the shift pattern other than it shifts at about 3.5k. This is largely due to the 3.73...

Hi I have a 2017 i purchased 2nd hand. Whenever I shift in reverse the loud beeping sounds, and everyone knows i have arrived. I have checked the manual, dash guide, and youtube and no answers. I wish to turn it off! I have tried pulling various fuses, especially ones related to towing, no...

Hi all, I have a 2006 Explorer XLT V6 AWD... Picked it up recently from a rear brake job and within a day or two of the work shifting into reverse became a hard drop, and it stopped backing up any level of incline. I can still reverse on flat ground, and everything else operates well. When...

I have an Explorer Sport Trac with the 5R55E automatic transmission. It has been having some issues for a while which I am trying to repair completely. The issues I have are below. 1.) After transmission is warm and if I make a stop at the store and shut the truck off for maybe 15-45 minutes...

That might be a stupid question from a new owner of a 1994 Explorer. I was doing offroad for the first time with my Explorer this weekend and i noticed that in reverse, even with the 4 high or 4 Low engaged, only my rear tires were spinning. Nothing from the front. I never had a Ford before...

2002 sport trac with 275k miles. started to accelerate from stop light but dropped out of gear and started to free wheel. put in second gear and second and it worked fine, after getting to about 45 mph I shifted it back into drive (and if I turn off the over drive button) it will grab third...

long story and I’m lost at this point. So about a month ago, my right rear turn signal wasn’t functioning. I figure it’s just the bulb and replace it. Still does the same thing, solid glow instead of blinking. It didn’t blink in the hazards as well. After a couple it days it was functioning...

Hey guys! I'm new to the forums and first time owner of a explorer. I just recently bought one with a bad transmission. When I tore it down for the rebuild I noticed there was a rod broken underneath the reverse servo it holds the reverse band strut in place. I can't find this rod anywhere does...

Hello, I just completed an auto to manual trans swap on an 02 explorer sport. It works great now... mostly. The speedometer and odometer does not work anymore (it did before). I was under the impression it derived the signal from the transfer case or rear axle, not the transmission? Any one...

Hello, I have a 2005 Explorer, (V6, rear wheel drive, over 210,000 miles). Yesterday I was driving on the highway with no problems, but when I stopped at a restaurant and restarted, first gear wouldn't kick in. The "CHECK TRANSMISSION" light came on and the "O/D Off" light started blinking. I...

So I'm really ignorant when it comes to vehicles, truly. So please understand that before I ask stupid questions! I can do the basics like change my oil etc but am lost when it comes to anything advanced. So basically my reverse went out about a month ago. I've got about 150k miles on it, and...

I need help desperately I have a 97' Explorer Sport (that I love very much) but i cuts out whenever it is put in reverse or sometimes (very rarely) at a red light with my foot on the brake. I got a check engine light once. took it to auto zone and got a code for an air leak. took it to a...

I have a 2003 Ford Explorer that does a loud noise and has trouble shifting from Park to Reverse, meaning it is not as smooth as it was before. The noise sounds like it may be coming from the transmission? Anyone know what is causing this? Thanks everyone :)

Hi so I'm having some trouble figuring out my transmission in my 02 4.0L XLT. It drove fine, I got home and parked it and the next morning i went to drive it and it wouldn't shift into reverse or 3rd. I got inside of the transmission and found that the filter was totally black and the fluid was...

New to the forum, been lurking for a while and trying to sort out my problem and I see this hasn't been brought up yet. 04 Explorer XLT with the problematic slamming in reverse. When cold, it doesn't happen, however once warm there is the delay, then slam. I took the reverse servo out to...

I everyone. I had an issue with 1st to 2nd shift and tracked this is a blown out vb gasket... I ordered both vb to separator plate and separator plate to transmission as well as a new reverse servo gasket... The repair seemed uneventful,but now no reverse... I pulled reverse servo...

I have just rebuilt a 5r55e transmission for my 1997 Explorer 4.0 4x4 OHV. I had a broken reverse band that I replaced along with the front and intermediate band and all friction/clutch packs. I followed the manual on the complete rebuild and now that everything is back together I am having an...

Hi, Just bought a 2000 Ford Explorer today actually. When I test drove it I was aware of the problem, and now I would like to fix it. The rig drives and functions great, but when it comes to putting it in reverse, it acts as if I just put it in park. Doesn't act like it is in neutral or...

I've been having an on going issue when going into reverse in my 2002 Explorer Eddie Bauer 4WD V8. A couple months ago I notice a loud "thunk" when placing the tranny into reverse, I took it to a transmission shop and guy said it runs great. Now it has progress to when I place the tranny into...

Hello everyone. I am having transmission problems with an 02 explorer 5r55w that had a bad solenoid A that cause shifting problems; intermittent O/D flashing; and unable to turn O/D on and off. We had purchased a used solenoid pack that seemed to test out fine through ohm resistant setting...

I have an 06 Explorer. Suddenly have no reverse. No warning signs, leaks, lights, codes, etc. All other gears work including 4 hi & Low. When I put it in reverse, the car doesnt move. If I give it gas, the engine hesitates for a brief moment, then the rpms increase (as if I was in...

I was wondering if the volume of the backup seneor on my 2002 Ford Explorer Limited could be increased. Sometimes I can't hear it, especially with the radio, a/c, and outisde noise. I read somewhere that a dealership could do it, but i don't wantto pay big $$$ for such a little adjustment...

I have a 1992 explorer. When I put it into drive or reverse, it stalls on me. It only does this when I first put into drive or reverse, just after I start it. Engine idles ok and will not stall if I give a little gas as I shift. Also if I shift it into neutral then into drive or reverse, it...

hey i recently rebuilt 2 a4ld in two different 94 explorers, and they both work fine but lack reverse... i didnt clean the valve body on either... could that be the problem? Both the trans's were repaired due to burning up clutches because fluid leaked out... what do you guys think? there is...

I finally got my 1994 Exploder running good and driving good,with the exception of the standard 62ish mph vibration we all love to hate. Well coming back from the lake, towing a my 16' old bass boat (about 1000 lbs) it does great. I get ready to back it into the back yard and I notice I am...

I've recently lost reverse, and a trusted mechanic friend of mine suggested it could be a solenoid. I changed the filter & fluid; also, there were no signs of anything loose or coming apart. I was just wondering if purchasing a new valve body, with all new solenoids could help my problem. Any...

I am looking for the best location to tap into the reverse signal wire somewhere under the dash. I need this wire for my back up camera so the closer I can find it to the radio the better. I've been searching and found that this black/pink wire runs under the door sill (driver's side OR pass...

So new problem with the black hole explorer. i have no reverse lights and i cannot for the life of me figure out why. Ive checked the fuse for the lights and the lights themselves and nada. it has to be one of the switches. my buddy told me its the neutral safety switch, but Im leaning more...

I have a 1998 Explorer XLT V6, 2/4wd and 120k miles. Needless to say, I love the vehicle. This has been an ongoing problem of mine that no mechanic has been able to diagnose, let alone fix. When I shift the car into reverse, about 1/10 times it will make a crunching sound and sit in...

I have a 1999 explorer. I went to back it out of the driveway this afternoon, I heard a 'clunking sound' which appeared to come from the rearend (not sure) and ' no reverse'. It will drive forward but it will not engage in reverse. It was towed to a shop who basically said that if the reverse...

I have a 2000 Ford Explorer Limited V6 SOHC 4x4 I know I need to replace my brakes, because the pads have worn down, I just havent had the time yet, but I ran into an issue the other day; I'll put the truck in reverse, and the brakes stay in contact. As in, when I take my foot off the...

The problem my a4ld was having was it was surging in and out of reverse(pretty much julting), and it wouldnt do anything unless i gave it some throttle. all foreward gears work fine. also reverse and park on the shifter are switched so reverse is park and park is reverse. and it has to be in...

Hi all I would like to thank all of you for your help i was able to get my ex running and A special thanks to brooklynbay as he gave me a lot of information about my a4ld. So i finally got my pan back on, I had to get thinner o rings for my new valve body got all the bolts tightened down, but...

anyone know how to make the bach door open backwards instead of like they are stock? ive seen it on cars and i think it would be fairly simple to do. anyone done it or know how to? thanks!

A couple months ago my transfer case went out or bad when messing with the brown wire mod. Now when driving, if I take my foot off the gas pedal and coast, it makes a grinding noise and quickly stops when I give it more gas. Im sure this is the transfer case and I know it needs to be replace but...

my gf has a 1998 ford explorer with around 180,000 miles on it. the tranmission has always shifted roughly, but recently i have lost the ability to shift the car into park when i get home. I was able to go to reverse until today. I have to start the truck in neutral and push it backwards to get...
