I would try reprogramming the key fob first, and if that doesn't work, test the actuator and switch

Battery Fully Charged but I get No Crank

Ford Explorer 2003 4.0L 4WD 6CYL XLT 323805 miles
So I unattached the negative battery cable to reset the 4WD high because it would not go back to 4WD Auto. After doing this I've had problems starting the car. Before this not one issue. So the battery is charged reading 12.75V and all interior lights, power locks are functioning. The problem is there is no crank when I turn the key. Nothing, not a sound, no click... Zero. The dash lights up, alert bell rings but nothing from the engine.

The problem was the new rotter part was bad the abs sensor light was not on, but the reinspection of the new rotters showed that's the ABS interior part was bent or a manufacture defective part. Replaced rotter and new seals. Auto drives fine now with no noise or bumping to a stop. They tried to charge me for a system check test. I called Corp they said no Charge. When you have a problem with retailer just call Corp . It takes a few days to a week to resolve any problem you may encounter with regional or national chain stores.

Power Door locks

Ford Explorer 1997 XLT 4wd 6 cylinder 4.0 control trac 137000 miles
My first question would be does anybody know which slot for the power door lock fuse? The second part of this is the other night my door locks started acting like I was just holding them down and it just kept making the same noise that it makes when it locks or unlocks you can hear the motor just keeps going. And it's running my battery down so I wanted to pull the fuse because I don't have a way to fix locks right now. I kind of feel like it has something to do with my sunroof leaked and so the inside of the vehicle got damp I got it dried out and no mold or anything like that but it doesn't mean it didn't hurt the electrical. Any help is appreciated thank you so very much.

I don't think moisture is the issue. Always check fuses for loss of power and or inefficienct power supply. However intermittent controlling of your power locks most likely means there's a short somewhere between power supply and device (driver side power control module. ) also sufficiency within the ground path from power supply to module is important as well.

No power to starter

Will not engage starter. New: battery - ignition switch - relays - fuses. All replaced. My thoughts are neutral safety switch. How do you test that?

Driver headlight staying on after doors locked

Ford Explorer 2019 Sport 44000 miles
Drivers side headlight stays on after locking the doors. Stays on for 15 minutes then turns off. Items checked: Door sensors are working, light switch works properly, all fuses test out, removed headlight harness from light, tested power. Pin 3 (low beam) gets 12.3v for 15 minutes then shuts off. All others turn on and off with switch. Assuming bad BCM relay or BCM software issue. Thoughts?

Rear headrests

Ford Explorer 2020 LT 70000 miles
Hey there. About 4 months after I bought the car the rear row head rests stopped working and stay down. Now one is stuck back up. I hear this from a lot of people as common. Maybe a recall on this? As this is dangerous for neck support to be jeopardized

Fuse box grounded and abs pump staying on. Relay getting negative/posi

Ford Explorer 2004  98000 miles
Car was jumpstarted and too many amps went through the car causing a short. Some fuses blew and were replaced. The interior radio, dash,locks, window switches and lights stopped working. Replaced all exterior lights that blew and are working now. The abs pump stays on and only shuts off when the relay is removed. Some fuses show ground on one side and the other side shows positive when checked. I hav been trying to figure out the problem but nothing seems to fix it. I wanted to know if there is anything else I am missing before replacing the ECU or getting a new fuse box. The car turns on and runs like normal aside from the problems stated above.

Se encendió la luz ABS de mi Ford explorer 2007

Ford Explorer 2007  240000 miles
Hace un tiempo se encendió la luz de ABS de mi explorer 2007, la lleve al mecánico, la escaneo y borro el código, sin embargo después de dos días se encendió de nuevo, el mecánico me dijo que los asientos tienen un tipo de placa que detecta cuando te sientas y se activa para de esta forma el computador sepa que alguien va en el asiento, pero no he podido encontrar la solución, alguien le paso y pudo solucionarlo?

Crazy lights and odometer messages

Ford Explorer 2003  121000 miles
So I'm in my 2003 Ford explorer yesterday, when all of a sudden I noticed the odometer readingv looked wierd. It looked like letters. I pressed the little botton by tree odometer. The dash lit up like a Christmas tree. Every light lit! It is old and pretty tired and beat up but runs great otherwise. I pulled over, put it in park. Turned off headlights. I pressed the odometer button and got 3L2F in odometer area. Pressed it again and it went back to normal. Drove fine after the incident but I didn't go very far. I have to go out to cemetery today and hoping I don't get stranded there. I had to rip off tail pipe the other day because it was dragging hanging on by a thread. Abs light comes on alot even though I've replaced brakes and rotors.

Electric windrows do not work intermittently

Ford Explorer 2004 hatchback, 4.0L 175048 miles
All windows do not work intermittently. Problem started after I had brakes done. None of the switches will work on any of the doors. If I pull the keys and close the drivers door then open the drivers door close the door put keys in ignition and start the engine the windows will work until I shut off the engine and open the door. All of the door locks work and the mirror adjuster works even when the windows don't.
