Ford ExplorerFord Explorer is a midsize SUV with body-on-frame construction. Available with V6 or V8 power, the Explorer competes against the TrailBlazer, Grand Cherokee, 4Runner, and Pathfinder. Explorer was completely redesigned in 2006 and we were pleased with the new steering, new suspension, and new brakes, all of which were vastly improved over the previous-generation.
The overhead display on my 1999 Explorer XLT went out the other day. This is the part of the overhead console that shows the outside air temperature and vehicle direction. The map lights still work.
I looked for a blown fuse but didn't find one and everything else seems to be working.
