- 2006 Explorer
I've just acquired '06 Explorer when my guypal died several months back. Started it weekly (to move to cut grass and drove it only a little bit [because I was advised by long-time mechanic friend it needed tires]); then one week, mysteriously to me, when the key was turned, it was dead quiet. Jumped it and let it run for at least 20 minutes and moved it. Next day, when I went to drive it, nothing. I jumped it again, started, let it sit for 10 minutes, then drove it for about 20 minutes. Parked it in driveway but as soon as I turned it off and got out, I realized I needed to move it, so I got back in, it wouldn't start but heard clicking. Having trouble locking doors now (either using key or remote); finally got 4 doors locked, but back hatch won't lock. I'll call mechanic Monday but hoping I could know more than I do about what's wrong, and with holiday coming . . . Sorry for long babble, but thanks for any suggestions.
