Can I disable the 4wd on a 95 Ford Explorer?
The transfer case is automatically switching in and out. Will even go to 4 lo while driving at high speedsand the switch is in 2wd. Can I disable this so it won't do that.
Take the front drive shaft off
I guess it is possible for the switch to be bad and switch to four wheel drive but I know for sure it does not go into low range while moving. The light may say so but it can't happen.
Sounds like a defective switch, but it's probably best to have it checked by a knowledgeable mechanic to find out what's Really happening.
There's no possible way that any vehicle actually engages low gear 4WD at any speed; especially highway speeds. Your tires would literally start squealing and you would likely lose control and crash. The top speed in 4-low on that would be under 20 mph. So if you're doing 60 and your tires suddenly slow to 20, you will probably lose it. You need to be at a complete stop with the vehicle in neutral to actually shift to low range. Even shift-on-the-fly would not work over 20 or 30.
On a separate note, blinking 4wd lights (both high and low) indicates a problem with the system. It's essentially the "check engine" light for your transfer case.
Get it into 2WD then disconnect the servo motor. (unplug it)
- How to remove/disable the alarm on a 97 ford Taurus? The alarm goes off every so often for no reason even when the car is completely unlocked, according to the manual the fuse that controls the alarm also controls some other more vital systems so can't just be removed, does anyone have any suggestions on how to quickly and easily disable the alarm, short of disconnecting the battery completely every time we're not in the car?
- How to disable the chime in a 2001 ford e150? I want to disable all chimes in the car. When the headlights are on, the car dings sporadically and it drives me nuts. Is there a fuse anywhere that I can remove or is there a more complex solution? I have removed the front plastic trim from the dash and am currently looking for the chime.
- How to disable the indicator beeping in my 05 Ford F-150 XL Triton? I have problems with processing sound and little repetitive noises drive me insane. To be clear, the sound I'm referring to occurs when say the driver door is open with the keys still in the ignition without the truck running or when the seatbelt indicator is active. I'm afraid that if I do not disable this beeping that I will lose control and destroy my truck if I do not find the source of this incessant beeping and quiet it for good. Any leads or DIY instructions are welcomed!
- How to disable ford alarm system? I've been trying to install a aftermarket stereo in my 2006 f150 king ranch. It just won't crank when it's all wired in. I was told it's because of the security system or the factory sub. When I put in the factory stereo back in it would crank right up? Any ideas?
