- 1994 xlt
I've got a 94 explorer xlt with about 122k and have recently encountered a problem with the truck coming out of overdrive after about 50 or so miles on the highway. Check engine light comes on at times with relatively heavy throttle (above 2500 rpm or so) and goes off when power is reduced. If I park it for a while and let it cool down a bit it will go into overdrive no problem at around 55 mph, but the problem comes back once I get back on the highway for an extended period of time. The "slip" out of overdrive occurs more rapidly if I'm cruising at more than 65 mph.
From reading other threads I'm getting that it may be a TPS issue and should have the code read. If the check engine light is not on is there still a code to be read?
Any ideas of what other problems I may have are appreciated. Thanks!
