check engine light

I have a 1997 Explorer XLT. The check engine light stays on. I changed all four oxygen sensors but the check engine light is still staying on. Could it be a wiring problem? I need help please.

check engine light

Hello and welcome to FTE

This forum is for new users and users who have announcements to make. You would have better luck to post this in a forum where tech discussion is allowed.

I would suggest the "Explorer, Sport Trac, Mountaineer & Aviator" forum.

I think you will get some help there. Be patient though.

check engine light

Standard operating procedure when the check engine light is on is to pull the trouble codes from the computer. After the computer tells you what problem it is seeing, then you can move in that direction to diagnose the problem.
