- 96 ExplorerXLT 4.0 V6 4X4
I have a 96' Explorer XLT 4.0 V6 4X4 that has lost 4th gear.
I bought the truck 3 months ago and it seemed to be running fine. After a few highway trips I began to notice that the O/D Off light would begin to blink and I would have no O/D while the light was blinking.
If I turned the truck off and back on the light would stop flashing and I would have O/D again until driving on the highway again.
Eventually the truck would not start and I had to have the fuel pump replaced. After a few more days of driving I noticed that i was not shifting into 4th gear when on the highway but the O/D light was not flashing.
I've attempted to reset the computer by disconnecting the battery for 10 minutes. I was still not shifting into 4th gear.
Does anyone know what would casue this? I've heard it could be caused by a solenoid in the valve body, but I don't want to spend money on parts I don't need.
