I tried searching, but couldn't find a thread that addressed this. Thanks in advance to anyone who can provide any information.
We recently had some snow here and while trying to get out of our driveway our 2002 Explorer XLS got stuck. I got out of the car to check things out and noticed as my wife gave the car gas, only the passenger side rear wheel was spinning. Our 4x4 Hi and Low will not engage. I dropped a floor mat under that wheel, and we got out. Later when we came home, I put the Ex on jack stands and put it in drive. Sure enough, only the rear passenger wheel is spinning.
I've read about the 4X4 command module problem, but when that goes out is it normal for only one wheel to spin? Or do I have a different problem?
I'll cart the Ex off to our mechanic after my tax refund arrives, but I wanted to know if anyone else had any experience with this and what kind of repair I might be in for.
Thanks so much.
