Have a 95 Explorer XL 4.0 L V6, engine light comes on once or twice a week very briefly, sometimes at idle and sometimes on the highway. Computer comes up with a code of 62, Travel Switch. Can't figure out what this is or what it does, never heard of a travel switch.
AXOD and E4OD are transmission type identifiers like C6, C4, FMX, etc... According to those results it sounds like the final drive in the trans is slipping....
Dont wait... Take it to a trans shop or a dealer and have them run diagnostics on the trans. It may be just a sensor at this oint, if you wait it may take out the trans.....
If you're up to the reading, there's (or at least was) a link to a copy from Mitchell of the EEC-IV diagnostic article. Search on this forum for "gtest.pdf" It won't have any information on a code 62; as mentioned, a '95 Explorer should output three digit codes (62x). It will have diagnostic steps to take for the 4R44E electronics (62x codes) that might prove useful.
As Andy and MrShorty said, the code should be three digits. If the code is indeed 62x, then it points to a solenoid circuit failure in the transmission. If you can get that third code digit, we can narrow it down as to which solenoid it is......
62 indicated Travel Switch, the others went away.
Couldn't get any codes under the dash so connected under the hood.
This was a generic tester, 2nd generation, I guess we'll have to go to a Ford dealer on Monday. My mechanic says that anything 1996 and up has 3-digit codes, but mine is correct with a 2-digit; however he is baffled and is researching it also.
I almost hate to say this, but he must not have worked on a lot of Fords (of course I haven't either, but I have done some extensive work with the two that I have.) According to the manuals I've read (Mitchell, Motor), '91 was the only year Explorers output 2 digit codes. '92-'95 output three digit codes OBD-1 codes. '96 and up output 5 digit alphanumeric codes (I think like P0171), though it seems some readers ignore the first two digits.
Before you take it into the dealer, try "manually" pulling the codes. All you need is a jumper wire (paper clip will work), and you read the codes as flashes of the CEL. The instructions are in that "gtest.pdf" file I pointed you to earlier.
The search default on this site is to search only the past 30 days (something to keep in mind, I guess, whenever you perform a search on this site). The link was posted back in July.
