Hello everyone My name is Erik. i just bought an 2002 Ford Explorer Limited 4.6L v8 4x4 ..

Ive read these forums over the past few days and decided to join.... i've a few situations i need help with..

1. when the truck is in 4x4 auto, there is a whine when accelerating....

2. when accelerating hard, like when i step on it sometime there is hesitation.

3. the airbag light is on. yet the air bags seem to be there...

There are no check engine light or anything coming on.

Update: the third issue has been fixed i hope.. what happen was, my friend and i went a picked up a 12 pack of beer and i sat it in one the seats in the back row. and the light hasnt come back on..

and for some reason the first 2 issues seem to go away when engaging the truck in 4x4 high.

Could the transfer case be the culprit or a module of some sort be causing the issue.?


all info is greatly appreciated, once again Im glad to be here.
 












The hesitation issue could be a number of things. You could try to run a can of Chevron fuel injection cleaner through it. You may also want to check the spark plugs and wires.
