The Media Hub lid latch, the one that the says"Sync" on it in the upper middle console above the cup holders,has failed, the little spring that makes it actually latch, fell out of the latch itself. anyone have a remedy?

Hi guys! I wasn't sure where to post this so if this is the wrong area please let me know. I have a Ford Escape 2009 XLT V6 FWD and I've started noticing that when I take sharp/hard turns left or right (but more so left) the back wheels on whichever side is holding the weight during that turn...

Hey guys so I have a 4.0 2wd 96 Explorer. Well, my a.c. has been acting up recently and there is a leak in the system because my a.c. keeps going hot after charging it. There is a hose that goes behind the engine that connects the Accumulator and the Compressor. That hose is cracked but I can't...

Hey I just bought this 2004 explorer and it's stock I was wondering what I could do to it such as tires and headlights to make it look more aesthetic. I plan on getting a 3" body lift and the car is black. I also don't plan on killing my wallet lol. Thanks

I have started the process of pulling out the 4.6 v8 from my Explorer. I am going to be putting in a used one with a about 130K on it. What kind of things should I change when I put in my new one? So far here is what I have listed AC Recharge Fuel Injectors Fuel Filter Spark Plugs & Wires...

Hello, Kind of a long shot, but is it possible to put an 02 Explorer super trac hood on an 02 Explorer XLT? Trying to find a hood replacement and this is all I can find so far (the super trac). Guess I need to be more patient. Any replies are appreciated. Regards,

Hey everyone! New to the Ford Explorer I got sitting outside and this site. Hope I can share the progress with you guys!

I have a 2003 Explorer XLT that has both rockers rusted out. Anyone got videos or tips and good parts to replace with.

I've got a 2000 explorer xlt 4.0 sohc with almost 300k on it. Still running like a SOB. About a year ago (this is a secondary vechicle so I was in no hurry) the power windows, interior lights, cruise control, and the rear hatch electronics stopped working. At first they would intermittently...

2002 Ford Explorer 4.6l and my passenger side o2 connector was melted and the replacement bwd pt5525 does not have the same wire or colors. So Im looking a way to connect the factory grey/red, red/white, grey/Lt blue, and red/yellow wires to the replacement o2 pigtail plug in connector. Photos...

Hi all I don't if the is the same or not but here's what has happened to me yesterday So I had a mechanic look at my truck for another issue and he tried to jump or reset the computer with a jump wire for the positive to the negative battery cable so he told me, now when I drove it home the...

So I recently tried to use the cigarette lighter on the passenger side of my explorer and noticed it did not work. The cigarette lighter next to the radio on the front works just fine. I looked at the fuse (#17 i think) and it looked fine. I was just curious why one works and not the other.

Hello All! Just purchased a 2008 Explorer XLT /w 64,000 miles. I'm new to the Explorer world but recently just sold my 98 Ranger XLT. I'm looking forward to staying up to date and participating in numerous threads. Location: SW Pennsylvania

Hey all! I'm new here. Finally became a member because I've got a question. I've got a 1994 Explorer XLT. It had been sitting in a garage for a number of years before I bought it. That was last October. Since I live in Idaho the AC hadn't really been too much of a concern. Now I'm down in...

Hello, Winter has come and gone and the snowy weather has convinced me that I want to get heated mirrors on my 2004 XLT. I've done some reading, and I am told that the 3rd gens XLTs were prewired for heated mirrors IF they have standard power mirrors w/ puddle lights. Good news, I have power...

Hello, I recently posted a thread about a nasty vibration with my explorer while accelerating and I noticed something with my 4X4 system and I'm not sure if this is an issue or not. I have a 2001 Explorer XLT (4.0l SOHC) and when I bought it the 4X4 lights would flash about 6 times every...

I have a 2001 XLT with a 4.0 V6 SOHC and it has developed a pretty bad vibration when accelerating. I bought the truck in December of 2016 and the only issues with it were the thermostat being stuck open and the 4X4 lights were flashing. Well I disconnected the battery and got the 4X4 lights...

2005 Ford Explorer XLT. 4.0 V6 198,000mi Every so often my explorer has a strange running issue. 2/3 of the time i experience this issue It starts, then dies within 5-30 seconds. (usually when reversing out of my driveway) the other 1/3 it won't start at all but has the same symptoms as after...

Hello there, I recently bought a 2000 Ford Explorer XLT. I want to know if I can disable auto4wd? And if I can install manual hubs? If not are the hubs vaccuum? Also, will a Ford Ranger moon visor fit the Explorer?

So the first mod on my new 2017 XLT was to install a front+rear dashcam. The installation was pretty straightforward, although the fuse box under the dash was just a nightmare, and I'm still feeling stiffness in my neck, back, and abdomen from bending under the dash to get to it! Anyway, the...

I just recently installed a new aftermarket radio, and when I finished I noticed none of my interior lights turn on now. They did before. My dash lights and all of my windows can roll up and down (well not the ones that need new window motors.) But anyways. Its been annoying reaching around in...

I know there are several posts about heat issues with the explorers, but I never seem to find a definite answer. I know each issue is different so I have been brainstorming ideas. I have a 2001 Explorer XLT with 127,000 miles and the heat seemed to be working okay when the temp was in the 20's...

I currently have a 2007 Ford Explorer XLT 4.0L SOHC, vin E, V6 which needs a new engine. I was reading online and as far as i understand any 4.0L SOHC engine is compatible so that would mean any ford explorer xlt engine between 2006-2008 is compatible with my 2007 ford. Is this true or do i need...

My Explorer sits outside all day, I was wondering if you guys had tried any car covers that you would recommend. I usually drive by myself so getting someone to take off the cover with me would be something to avoid if possible. 1995 Ford Explorer, Four door. Thank you!

As the title says, these issues popped up within days of each other. Radio cuts off and gauges freeze when shifting into park, originally this happened randomly while driving. Bad ignition key warning sensor(annoying tone while exiting with keys in) makes it think key is always in ignition...

Hey, I have a 2005 Explorer XLT 4.0L and when the A/C or fan is running, it still works perfectly, there is a clicking noise coming from under the hood. It sounds like lifters lightly clicking would sound like but when you turn the fan or A/C off, the sound immediately stops. Anyone have any...

Greetings all, I was hoping that someone would be able to point me in the right direction. I have recently purchased a dash cam for my 2017 Explorer XLT and would like to hard wire it. I am not interested in using a fuse tap and would like to keep it simple and wire it in the pillar since it's...

Is there a chance to swap for a different transmission that is not the 5r55w? I feel this transmission wasn't really designed to handle very much torque since the intermittent band is broken. I just want to avoid putting in another 5r55w that's 99.9999% going to do the same thing at anytime.

I want to put a lift on my 1998 V6 XLT, mainly because I think the stock height is dorky looking, but also because I would like to be able to off road to go shooting without messing up my under carriage. I'm leaning towards suspension lift, but I know some people who have suspension and body...

Hello everybody. I'm new to Explorerforum, but I'd like to make a post about my 2002 Explorer XLT 4x4 4.6. I love this car, but recently I've run into transmission issues that make the car un-drivable. I just recently hit 240,000 miles and I've been waiting for a problem like this to happen. My...

Good Evening Everyone, So I own a 1994 Explorer XLT, and I just drove it from Seattle to Tempe, and it ran fine the entire time however it started making an interesting noise around the halfway point of the journey. The sound can be described as a rattling or a grinding, and it only happens for...

Does anyone know where to buy evap lines for the above explorer. My guy called ford and said they are discontinued. Thanks

I've had this on my mind for a while, and I've searched around a lot, but nothing quite catches my eye. Maybe I'm not searching hard enough.. but basically, I'm searching for a very nice looking wheel set. I have the XLT trim level, and these wheels, currently, which are 17s : The idea of...

Hey guys! Hope I'm posting this in the right spot. I've looked around and I may very well be blind but I couldn't find a specific answer to my question so I thought I'd just ask. I have 2 99' Explorers: 09/99 SOHC XLT UQ Automatic (5 speed I believe?). VIN number has the "E". 04/99 OHV...

Hello guys. I have remote start on my 2000 Explorer XLT 5.0. I remote started it today and when i got in. The rpms were running lower then normal, almost like she was going to stall. When i stop at a light or shes idling, The RPM would go up and down between 500-1000 RPM and it sounded like she...

Hi there, first post here on the forums. We have an 08 XLT in the White Sand color, I believe. It has a bit of damage, but I believe our worst damage is in the rear hatch, where there's a massive dent. It happened while my brother was moving the ex, and he made a mistake and misjudged on a...

Hey everyone. yesterday my front wheel bearing blew out and welded itself to the spindle. I picked up a junkyard steering knuckle with the spindle but I have no clue how to put it on. Can someone please briefly run me through the process or give me a link to a good writeup? Are there any special...
