When i changed ignition on 2001 ford explorer I ended up having to replace steering column now it wont turn over & the anti theft light flashes & wont stop. what can be done to get car started?

At least you know the anti theft system is working. Jokes aside, I would think that the electronic security system is not recognising the new lock and steering column. You could try leaving the battery completely disconnected for at least 2 or 3 hours to see if the system resets. Reconnect the battery and then try again with the new key. You will have to put the security code back into your radio as well. If this doesn't work, it may need to go to a Dealer to reprogram your electronic system.

2001 Ford Explorer Sport. ABS system not working. Car still stops but will stop and then go another 6 to 10 feet. ABS light not on.

so you have problems with the 4 Wheel Drive and also with the ABS System? you need a local auto electrician to use a pro grade scan tool computer to diagnose. It take about 30 minutes and cuts out all the guesswork. https://www.google.com/search?q=auto+electrician+near+me ..

Check for vacuum leaks. Have someone feather the gas pedal while you listen carefully to the engine. If the leak is bad enough you'll probable hear it. More than likely, it's either a vacuum hose or the o-rings under the intake manifold. Hope this helps!

I have a 2001 Ford Exployer. The steering wheel pinches the turn signal wire.

Special tools are necessary to take off the steering wheel and the lock plate underneath it. Have it repaired by a mechanic that possesses those tools.

I replaced the transfer case module, still doesnt work, could it be the switch

Instead of just replacing parts ,why don't you take it an get it diagnosed at a ASE certified repair shop . You need to test ! is there DTC's - diagnostic trouble codes ? Is there a voltage at the switch ? an then check to see if there is a return voltage at the control module . These systems are complex an replacing parts doesn't work ! Go to you tube an check out some videos on basic automotive electrical system trouble shooting . An voltage drop testing videos . Then you need to find yourself a wiring diagram an check power an grounds for the module .

Which relay controls the information, radio and heater?

None in the relay/fuse panel. The blower has a relay built into the resistor. The others don't have relays, just fuses. The only thing they have in common is ground wires. if the info is in the IP. then it has died.
