Sensor on tranfer case???
I have an e40d trans..I herd that the sensor on the transfer case has somthing to do with my cruise so i unplugged it and a bunch of debrie came out of it.I was wondering what i should clean it with like carb cleaner and also if i can unscrew that sensor in the transfer case to clean it..And if thats what they mean by cleaning it.And will any fluid run out when i take the sensor out...
Thanks Brad

yeah my thought too quicklook2-it may melt the plastic-I was going to say brake cleaner?? but then I am not sure-figured contact cleaner was a safe bet!!!--and yeah the vss is on the rear?? don't know what the sensor is he is referring to-haven't found one on mine yet-well mine is older-maybe a push button transfer case-may be his solenoid for the electric transfer case???mine has no wires!!!

In 1996 the VSS in the rear is for ABS, cruise, and the PCM. I don't think my 95 has a sensor on the transfer case...my other 95 does but it's for push button 4x4, which F-250's don't have. Are you sure it's not on the tailhousing of the transmission?
Careful with brake clean too. Some isn't safe for all plastics. Some will say wether they're safe or not.
