Can anyone give the part number for a colder plug than a AC/DELCO R44LTS. Long story short... I want to switch to a colder plug to troubleshoot the pinging in my Explorer 94. Thanks, Sam in Raleigh.

Hi, Hoping you could help me. I'm looking for the location of the computer control box (module). I'm trying to find the keyless entry code for a 2002 Sport Trac. I know on the Explorer it's inside the panel where the jack and fuel reset switch are located. However I can't find it for the Sport...

Hi everyone I am writing to see if anyone know anything about blinking 4x4 lights on dash, my truck is always in auto and today it started to blink when I reached a certain speed. I am a woman and everytime I take it to the dealership they rake me over the coals for repairs, ball joints upper...

For the past few months, the wiring leading into the drivers door has broken (LF door speaker doesn't work, everything else still works ok). For a while, I could open the door and bend/push/twist the wire harness between the body and door, and get the speaker to work. Now it's completely dead....

I'm taking out the factory CD player in my explorer. I've read that you have to pretty much pry off the piece of plastic surrounding all the controls but can't really find a good place to start it. Any tips on getting it off without breaking it!?! Thanks, Gavin

The A/C in a 98 Explorer will not send out cold air. It just blows out hot air. When I take the car to a A/C repair shop, what should I expect? Would adding freon solve the problem? Does the compressor need to be replaced? What A/C repairs can a person expect from a car with 67K miles? All...

Hi, Could someone answer these questions concerning Explorer rear axle assemblies from 1995 through 2001? I plan to convert my existing rear end to a Ford 8.8. 1. I have been told Explorers 95-01 come with the Ford 8.8. with 31 spline, is this correct in both the V8 and V6 models? 2W and...

I'm having a problem with my '97 (4.0 OHV). It seemed like the longer it sat the longer it was taking to start when cranking the engine. I thought it was a fuel problem but a few days ago it wouldn't start at all. I checked for spark with a timing light and NO SPARK. I can hear the fuel pump...

The ride on my well serviced 1998 Explorer has become extremely harsh. The car has 60,000 and no known faults. The suspension light is not on. Has anyone the schematics for the self levelling and rear shock absorbers? Can anyone suggest a fault tracing strategy? Many thanks, Neill.

Some were asking about OBD2 check engine code readers and erasers. This EBAY store has them too and the auctions start at 1 cent !! Good Luck. http://stores.ebay.com/OneSmartMove

My son just got his Ranger (06) back from the dealer where they replaced the computer. In doing so, they gave him 2 new keys. He still has one of the original keys (it no longer starts the truck), can he go through the process of adding a key and add this key to the new computer so he has three?...

I bought a Ford In-Dash 6 DISC CD changer for my 2000 Explorer sport. Everything seemed to work fine except... the CD player says "slots full" . Well there are no CD's in the player and if you try and eject it shows "initializing" on the display then says "CD Error". Tried it a dozen different ways...

My back up sensors went out today. Any thoughts on how to get them working again? Thanks

Hello and thanks in advance for your help. I have a 99 mountaineer with climate control (just dial in the number and on Auto the fan/cooling/heating control the temperature in the cockpit). It also has controls for the temp and fan on the steering wheel. I went up into the mountains and took the...

My display that shows station, cd # time, etc... has gone out. Is there a bulb that can be replaced. Thanks, Todd

Hi, All I will be replacing a Preimium edition radio in a Ford Explorer with an aftermarket radio. Any recommendations? From what I read, Ford OEM radios are not worth the trouble or money. Any and all comments would certainly be appreciated. TIA,

The PCM in my '98 Expy (Limited, V8, AWD, if this makes any difference) has developed an intermittent short to ground on the IAT input. No, it's not the sensor, the connector or the wire harness - it's really inside the box. A brief occasional intake air temperature reading of 700 degrees (or...

Recently when I turn a corner, the car continues to pull in that direction. It may pull a mile, or even 5. Eventually it quits pulling. If I turn another corner in the other direction, it pulls that way. Strong pull. I suspect it is whatever makes it come back to center that is not working right....
