2008 Ford Explorer XLT
Was wondering if anyone can help me out... I have a 2008 Ford Explorer XLT 4.6 V8 starting but there are little to no dash lights on dash board also giving me an alert chime (going really fast) all dash lights including 4x4, check engine, battery, abs, etc. all on almost like it is running solely on the alternator but I go to unplug the battery and the truck dies. I've replaced the battery and the alternator already. Anyone have any suggestions as to what is going on. TIA

Welcome. Sorry I wouldn't know.

You might want to check the grounds for the battery, PCM etc. Sometimes they corrode and can cause many issues like you are having. While not likely, you might have installed a bad battery or alternator.
