- 2002 Explorer XLT 4X4
I'm new to this forum but have been "lurking" for a long time.Want to say thanks in advance for any help.
Like so many others with Explorers I decided to make my own "neutral tow kit" in order to flat tow my 2002 4X4 XLT behind a motorhome, 4 down. I bought the LED from Radio Shack and wired it into the truck.
Today I took the truck to our local dealer and asked them to flash the computer to enable the neutral tow.
"No problem, we do lots of these."
So a few hours later they call and tell me the computer has been re-programmed but the neutral tow won't engage.
The LED is on dim whenever the key is on. When the key is off it flashes dim about once every two seconds and never stops.
When I first turn the key on the LED will get bright for about two seconds then go the the dim mode and stays there.
The bulb check never happens and the transfer case does not go into neutral.
Any "Gurus" here that recognize the symptoms?
