Check AdvanceTrack

Nov 06, 2004 1 Replies

Hello:



I've got a 2002 Explorer Limited with v8 and AdvanceTrac. It has



50,000 miles. Today the message center comes on with the message "Check AdvanceTrac". In addition, the 4x4 lights will flash occasionally and the 4x4 buttons no longer have any effect. The AdvanceTrac icon on the dash stays lit.

Any ideas on what to check first? Will an OBDII code reader be able to read the error codes for this sort of fault?



Thanks, Larry


It will depend on the code reader.. Some code readers can't access proprietary modules and are designed for PCM code retrieval only. For your concern you will need to access the 4WD module. Diagnostics will depend on whether yours in a Job 1 or Job 2 car...
