- 2001 Explorer Sport 4wd
Last chance before I scrap the Explorer
I cannot engage 4wd high or low in my 2001 Explorer Sport. When the vehicle starts both 4 hi and 4 low lights flash on momentarily as they should. I have swapped in a new shift motor assembly and I still cannot engage 4wd hi or low. My Auto Xray scan tool does not register the 4 low request when I turn the switch to 4 low from 2wd with the engine running, transmission in neutral and brake on as is required to engage the low range. Hi range will not engage at any speed or in neutral etc. At this point I'm guessing it's the wiring or the 4x4 module. While driving I hear relay clicking noises every few seconds coming from the front passenger kick panel area where the 4x4 module is located. All the fuses have been checked and test OK
Does changing the shift motor require reprogramming the 4x4 module to synchronize the shift motor position sensors to the module??
Does anybody have a complete set of vehicle wiring schematics or at least the wiring for the 4x4 control circuits including the module i/o? I can trouble shoot as I was formerly an industrial electrician but without a schematic to analyze and a wiring color code assignment I'd be shooting in the dark so to speak.
Any help would be appreciated
