This has happened twice: when starting, the dash lights will come on like normal, and then everything dies - no dome lights, no door locks, no windows, etc. I wait 2-3 minutes, there's a click from under the hood somewhere, and then it will start.Then, when driving one morning, the AC shut off, the radio went out, and a little farther down the road the Explorer died.

Now when the transmission is cold it won’t shift out of first gear automatically. If I move the shifter from drive to second gear the car will shift into second, just fine. Move the shifter back to drive and it drops to first gear. To add some strangeness it does not feel like a full first gear. Stepping on the gas feel like first about 30 MPH @ 4, 000 rpm, but when I take my foot off the RPMs drop to idle and there is no pull on the engine. If I place the shifter in first gear the transmission acts like it is in first RPMs and when I take my foot off the gas there is pull on the engine. If I shift to second get the RPMs above 3200 RPMs and shift to drive it will shift to drive most of the time. Only on really cold mornings does this not work.

As I'm cruising down the highway, in OD, 60-65MPH, 1500/1700RPM, everything is wonderful. Cruise control is on, all is right with the world. Then.........Hey.......what is THAT! The RPM's jump to 2400/2500, and the volume goes up in the tranny. Not as loud as a kick-down to third, but kind of half way there. First time it happened that's what I thought happened...that it shifted out of OD and into third, but no.......I can manually drop it down to third and that jumps the RPM's up to 3000 or more with the expected increase in sound. This is like it finds something between third and OD. Can't get any pros around here to acknowlege this behavior as something they recognize, just what feels like a standard answer about a range of prices that you know will be the higher, regardless of the problem......anyone out there recognize this as a typical issue or had this happen to them?

The engine turns over but never fires, no fuel??.Have been to both my regular service shop and the dealer’s and have had mixed results, replaced fuel pump a couple of times but the problem returns maybe a few months or years later. The last time was 1 month ago where engine diagnostics indicated a faulty ignition coil, it was replaced but the problem has returned. The problem is not always permanent, sometimes I can return to the car after some time (20, 30min) and the check engine light comes on and it fires up on the first crank, sometimes an hour may pass. It can happen in the morning the first time starting, after running the car then turn off and immediately try to restart or after being at work all day.

It has 110k on it. About 18 months ago or 12k the check engine light came on. I had it scanned by a local shop and it read bad oxygen sensors. He said it was best to replace all 3 being it was high mileage. I personally did the work myself and replaced all 3 sensors. Cleared codes and truck ran fine up until 2 weeks ago and the light came on again. Brought it back to my freind and he scanned it again. Reads bad oxygen sensors. What could be causing these codes? If "a" sensor is bad can I isolate the bad sensor out of 3 of them without replacing all 3? I'm pretty handy with a VOM if that helps.
