Cruise control diagnostics don't work by Happy Traveler
(Cross-posted to both AAF and AMFE usenet groups) The CC on my '98 Expy (V8, AWD, Limited) failed after almost 100K of faithful service. Followed the self-test procedure in the workshop manual and didn't get very far. Not even trouble codes being flashed. Checked wiring, fuses, clock spring...

1998 issues by Shaggz
First off I have a lot of scratches on the hood. I tried to use a hard- shell wax on it. Now there are more scratches. Not sure if they were there before. Is there anything that I can try that is safe? I don't want to make it worse. I also have trouble with the cruise control.

1996 3rd brake light by Randy Pavatte
Greetings. I just noticed today my 3rd brake light has gone out. In the past I saw some posts about having to replace the entire assembly, and the high cost of it, but a search done moments ago didn't give me any real details. More important to me is knowing if this light must be working to...

Oil Change Reminder Message by Tom from WI
I had my oil changed by my regular mechanic. He didn't reset the "Oil Change Reminder" message, so now when I start up my explorer, the message center is telling me that I will need to change the oil soon. The mechanic says he will reset it, but I wondered if this is something I can easily do...

I have a 96 Explorer XLT 5.0 with all the extras. I have since I've owned it always had the nagging "non adjustment" of the air temperature by which I solved by zip tieing the hearter control valve in the summer for cold air and releasing it in the winter for warm air. You can imagine my...

Backlights by Steve
I've lost the backlights on the 3 cruise control switches mounted on the rhs steering wheel, the 2 on the lhs switches are still illuminated. So, I assume that a globe has blown - any idea on where it is and how I get to it? This isn't going to be one of those $150 jobs to replace a 15 cent globe...

Explorer Rear Disc Pads by FrankB
1998 Explorer with rear disk brakes. I didn't realize that the rear brake pads are not identical. One end of each pad has a notch, otherwise they appear identical.
