Its a 98 explorer with the 5r55e 2wd and I have lost 1st gear!
When I put it in drive, almost nothing happens. The engine just revs like its in neutral and it kind of crawls forward if on a flat surface and rolls back if not. if i put it in 2nd manually then I can move normally and drop it back into drive after 15 mph and it works. and I still have reverse too. doesn't work while overdrive is off either. Can anyone help me??!!
1998 Ford Explorer 4.0L EFI V6 with 194,440 miles
4x2 5R55E
Transmission Fluid level normal; color- yellow/black
no leaks or engine/tranny problems before then
driving on a muddy road with mild slippage
no codes or lights blinking, though ABS light did come on just before problem occured and then turned off.
I am the third owner of this truck and I dont know any of it previous history. Havent even had it for a year yet.
its stock to the bone.
help please!!
