Please help!!!!!!!!!

I have a 1996 for Explorer and recently after I got a new battery (because the old one died) started to have electrical problems. My 4 wheee and 4 wheel low lights blink 6 times and the inside lights and windows won't work. They are stuck down. Are there any suggestions I can do before I bring it into the dealership or electrition. I am on a very tight budget becuase I just graduated school. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I also don;t have an owners manul because I bought it from a private owner.

Check the fuse boxes.

Also, thru this link http://www.ownerconnection.com/ you may be able to get a copy of the appropriate owner's manual, online.

Good luck

They were plagued for awhile with GEM module problems. I would look at your battery saver relay and accessory relay first.

Please help!!!!!!!!!

First, you need to include your problem in the subject. You can pick up an owners manual on e-bay for under $10. For under $20, you can find the Ford service manual on cd. Just do a search on e-bay for "ford explorer 1996". You can also find the service manual cd's at fixitcds.com. Hope this helps.
