I have a 2001 Ford Explorer Sport that was “modified” by a budding mechanic who got in over his head and then went in the Army. I bought the car cheap before I knew about all the compatibility issues.
This car now has a standard transmission in place of the original automatic. It also has a 2006 (stock) engine in place of the original.
As I now know, the electronics don’t like each other. It wont even click the starter solenoid and of course the anti-theft light is on.
I’ve had suggestions from “Bring it in and let us look at it.” to “Install a complete new wiring harness.” to “Trace every connection to determine which module is sending which signal through which connector.” (whew!)
I hate admitting defeat so I’m hoping someone can tell me how to solve this puzzle.
If not I guess I’ll just have to part it out and be done with it.
Any takers?
Thanks for whatever input you may have.
