On my 95 XLT the compressor is not engaging. Two years ago I had refrigerant added (66.00) by a local shop and the AC worked fine all summer. Last year turned the AC on in the summer and again no cold air and the compressor did not engage. This time the same shop charged me 103.00 to add...

On my 95 XLT the radiator was replaced last year at a repair shop. I don't use the vehicle much. I have been noticing when I check the water level in the radiator when it's cold it seems to be low. I also noticed after I top it off, then use the vehicle for awhile, the water level in the...

My 1995 Explorer XLT has 121K miles. and still runs and looks good. I replaced the battery in it in May of 2004 with a Motorcraft BXT65-650 battery purchased at my local Ford dealer. This battery has served me well for almost 10 years. With the cold weather setting in It did not turn over quite...

Greetings, I've been reading posts for days but hopefully can get an answer here. My 95 Explorer XLT 4.0 (119K Miles) with EECC-IV (OBD1) recently has the check engine light come on. I discovered if shortly after starting the vehicle and driving on a highway for many miles it would not come...

Had a full rebuild done 3 weeks ago. Band on 2nd gear needed replacing. Prior to the rebuild, for several winters now, on cold days here in the Northeast it took quite a bit of time for the engine torque converter to kick in and shift normally. It would not shift properly from 3rd to 4th until...

My 95 XLT has 70K original miles, bought the vehicle used in 1998 with 30K miles. I live in the North East with winter temps frequently dropping below freezing. For the past 3 winters I have noticed the tranny will not shift from 2nd to 3rd gear until the vehicle was driven for some time and...

MY 95X just had the OD flashing light problem, only 69K babied miles. I reset the computer 3 times disconnecting both cables on the battery and let it sit for 20 minutes. Each time the light went out but came back after about 20 minutes driving. For the past two winters, in very cold weather...

Did a search but unable to find an answer to my specific question. Just returned from the repair shop and had my AC fixed on my 95 Explorer. The compressor was not coming on and they determined it was a defective AC switch that is located under the hood on the passenger side, and taps into a...

Receiving lousy AM reception, lots of static and weak stations. The FM works fine. I remember from years ago ther was an antenna screw adjutment on the radio's that you could trim to get better reception. Well I pulled the radio out and the only thing I could find were two Plastic philips...

I have a friend who's looking to buy a new van or car. Wants to have an idea of what the dealer invoice is. I did a search but only thing I could find was Consumer Reports will send you a report for 12 bucks but only for a specific vehicle. My fiend is too cheap to spend the 12 bucks...

Yesterday my key pad light went out. I use the feature frequently, always forgeting my keys to retrieve items in the vehicle. I am hoping this is only a small bulb or diode in the keypad and doesn't mean the whole keypad needs replacing. Before ripping the door panel off I would like to know...

My question: is there a transmission modulator valve on the 95 Explorers? I have done a search and found no information. It appears 94 and lower have these valves located under the heat shield on right side of tranny. My Haynes manual is of no help since it does not list the years of which have...

Just dropped off my X for the annual State Inspection. Thought I'd treat myself and have the shop do a complete brake job. I trust this shop and I have requested they do this for the past two years and each time they tell me your brakes are still good. I bought the 95 X used in 98 with 30k, it...

Do any of you guys (or gals) experience front doors that squeak when opening and closing? Since I got my 95X in 98 my doors have constantly squeaked. I have pinpointed the location, it's the same on both front doors. It is where the door meets the thick rubber weather stripping by the rear...

Does anybody know if a message center will work in my 95X. It's supposed to fit 95-99 Explorers in place of where the storage compartment on the console goes. I poped my storage compartment out but did not find any unused wire harness. I suspect these came in the Eddie Bauer edition only...

An open letter to a terrorist: Well, you hit the World Trade Center, but you missed America. You hit the Pentagon, but you missed America. You used helpless American bodies, to take out other American bodies, but like a poor marksman, you still missed America. Why? Because of...

I found this one on another thread and it works for me so I'd thought I'd share. Make your own glass cleaner by mixing equal parts of: 1: Bottled Water 2: Denatured Alcohol 3: White Distilled Vinegar I used newspaper to clean the outside of the windows, on the inside I use plain paper...

This board is great, I have learned so much in a short period of time and want to thank everyone that contributes their opinions and advise. My 95X periodically has a slight drop in RPM for only a moment. After reading about the MAF sensor I thought perhaps this may be the cause and decided to...

I read today in the Wall Street Journal that Ford has lost a case in court regarding faulty ignition modules that will cause the vehicle to stall. An engineer came forward and informed the court that he advised Ford not to use these modules since extreme temperatures would cause stalling. Ford...

I just put on a set of 4 Monroe Reflex shocks and am not impressed. My 95 XLT has 49 K and after 6 years I thought it was time. My CD player has been skipping a little more lately over bumps so this gave me incentive to change. Originally I was going to put Bilsteins on but after reading...

Bought my 95 XLT in 98 with 30K miles. As soon as I got the vehicle (September) I had the tranny fluid and filter changed at a local Tranny shop. That winter I had no problems. In the winter of 99 I found the vehicle would not shift from 2 to 3rd until I drove for about 2 miles or more. If I let...

I am attempting to replace my 1995 Explorer AM/FM cassette Ford OEM radio with a 1998 AM/FM Cd OEM Explorer radio. I have placed a bid on EBay for this radio. I have emailed the seller and questioned him on the dimensions as well as harness receptacle measurements. They are identical but I am...
