Hi All,
I'm new to the forum, and this is my first Explorer. I bought it from an impound lot for my Daughter, and it needs a little TLC.
It runs excellent, has a nice body, a nice interior. and everything works.
It drives really nice as well for 198,000 miles, but it does have a couple of problems.
I've completely gone through the brakes, oil change, etc.
The trans doesn't want to shift out of first gear. If I drive between 2500. and 3000 RPM, it will eventually shift into second, (20-30 seconds later) and from there it seems fine.
The Check Engine light was on, and the scanner said Shift Solenoid B was stuck. Unfortunately, I don't remember the code #, and the truck is not at my house at the moment. I've browsed through the forums, but everything references solenoids 1,2,3,4.
My question is this: Which Solenoid do I need to replace?
What should I ewxpect to pay for the part?
Thanks in advance,
Dennis
