1997 Ford Explorer Sport Automatic

12/22/2009 3:35 PM

Runs forward but stalls out when trying to go in reverse.

Anyone know why?

Flush the fluid and see where that leaves you. It could be a trans. position switch locking out the ignition module or not telling the PCM to adjust for a loaded condition.

it sounds like a electronic or switching problem locking up you toque converter when you put it in reverse.
