This is most likely going to be an issue with a relay. The relay on the fords that is tied into the blinker module can go bad is it gets wet or over loaded. Are there any after market things added to your vehichle? This can also be caused by overloading part of your ECU if you have after market headlights, or headlights that carry too high a load. When it blinks for 3-4 times and stops, does it blink faster than normal? This can be a sign of a false connection to the light itself. Such as having the wrong bulb in for the blinker.

You have to remove the tensioner assembly, not just the tensioner pulley, but the whole assembly, in order to access the plastic bypass hose.
Be very careful, as these pipes get old, the plastic becomes brittle, and possibly the flange end will break off and remain in the block when you remove the pipe, check the block opening carefully to remove all of the remaining flange.
Also, be very careful when removing the lover pipe nipple into the engine block, if you try to pry the tensioner assembly off the block, you will probably snap off the machined nipple that locates into the block, Ask me how I know!!! Good Luck, it can be done but you need to move carefully and deliberately. (by the way, a rebuilt tensioner assembly costs about $80 US, the pipe is about $6. New tensioner assembly comes with the pipe)

Hola:P0442 - Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (small leak)Lo del codigo es una falla del control de emisiones puede ser que el tapon de gasolina ya no este cerrando bien o alguna maguerita del canister se desconecto, no es nada que ocasione gran falla. Esto indica una fuga de vapor de combustible en el sistema de control de EVAP. De hecho, la filtracion puede ser de un agujero tan pequeno como 0,04" de diametro. El sistema de emision (EVAP) de control impide el escape de vapores de combustible del sistema de combustible de un vehiculo.Los vapores del combustible son enviadas por medio de mangueras a un filtro de carbon para su almacenamiento. Mas tarde, cuando el motor esta en marcha una valvula de control de purga se abre para permitir entrada de la aspiracion para extraer los vapores de combustible en el motor.Sintomas: Es probable que no se dara cuenta de los problemas de manejo.Causas: Un codigo P0442 medio mas probable de uno o mas de los siguientes ha ocurrido: Un gas suelto o colocado indebidamente el tope Un disconforme de gas de cabeza (es decir, no de fabrica / marca original) Una pequena fuga / agujero en una manguera de vapor de combustible / tubo Otra fuga pequena en el sistema EVAP Ventilacion defectuosa o-ringPosibles soluciones: con un P0442, la reparacion mas comun es: Retire y vuelva a instalar la tapa de la gasolina, borrar los codigos, y la unidad por un dia y ver si los codigos de volver. De lo contrario, vuelva a colocar la tapa de gasolina, o Inspeccione el sistema EVAP de cortes y agujeros en los tubos o manguerasEspero que esta informacion le sea de ayuda.

Call the dealer

On the passenger side of the intake manifold, coming off the bottom about the center of the engine front to back, you'll feel a hose that comes off a nipple. That hose makes a 90 degree bend and goes around to the rear of the motor. Where that hose meets the Y-connector from the other side of the intake you'll find the PCV valve. It's almost impossible to see it with the hood installed, and even tougher to reach it.

A good source of information for Ford Explorers can be found here

the is also known as sensoer c it is your pressure control solenoid. if you drop the transmission pan and remove the transmission filter it is on the side of the valve body. DO NOT REMOVE THE VALVE BODY PLEASE

If it is the factory system that needs to be reset, unfortunately you will need a Ford IDS, which most large shops have or your local Ford dealer. If it is the aftermarket alarm system that needs resetting, then you need and authorized dealer of that alarm system.

There should be an instrument panel fuse in the fuse box located inside the car. Check the fuse and replace in needed.

Getting fuels means??? Are the injectors getting a pulse,are the coils firing?Are all ground wires attached and all connectors attached and clean?If it does not start on starting fluid there may not be any spark.

How do I know it's my blower motor itself, blower motor resistor or a switchbox? You view wiring diagrams an test electrical circuits with a DVOM - digital volt ohm meter . Free wiring diagrams here http://www.bbbind.com/free-tsb Enter vehicle info. year , make , model an engine size , Under system click on HVAC , under subsystem HVAC controls . Click the search button ,then the blue link. Do you know how to do that ? Videos on youtube on electrical circuit testing .

Take it back to whatever shop installed the rebuilt engine and make them troubleshoot the problem. There are no coincidences ... However, "loud thumping noises" don't sound good at all.

My mechanic disconnected the security section because my key I use to start the car had the security spot on the key was loose and would not work in the ignition It was going to cost a lot for a new set of keys so he took the security section out for a lot less. As he said an older car does not need security.

Fuel, Spark and Air are primary to starting car. Fuel tank definitely has fuel (some friendly neighbor didn't borrow yours)? How OLD is the gas - it can go bad. Must have spark if runs @ all. Anything clogging the air filter ? You've checked for rodent damage to wires/hoses under the hood/dash? check for CEL codes - you can buy an OBD2 scanner for $20 @ Walmart. Cheers, Td
