I would like to know as well. I'm having the EXACT same problem as the OP. Can't seem to get into 2WD. IWEs all check OK. I can shift 4WD modes OK. Can't get the front driveshaft and axles to stop spinning.
You can lift the rear then use two jack stands to support the axle. Make sure to block the front wheels just to be safe. Then you can start and put it into gear (make sure you're in 2WD). I had to do this several times on my old '98 over the years.
That was my suspicion, but thanks for the clarification.
I'm trying to find the source of some drive train harshness we started feeling while in 2WD. Not the typical IWE chatter of them losing vacuum, just a feel in the seat and steering wheel. Feels/sounds like it's in 4WD, which apparently...
Two things from my old '98 that caused rear end clicking:
- The parking brake cable was hitting the inside of the rear drivers side tire
- One of the parking brake pads inside the rotor had separated from its bracket
Hey all,
I posted a similar question in the 3rd Gen forum, but figured this might be a better spot.
For a 2016 Platinum with Torque on Demand 4WD (2H, 4A, 4H, 4L options), should the front driveshaft and drive axles be turning while in 2WD? Lets assume the IWEs are disengaged as expected.
Thanks!
Hey gang,
Got a question. I have a '16 Exped Platinum (110k miles) and am trying to find the source of some drive train harshness we started feeling while in 2WD. Not the typical IWE chatter of them losing vacuum, just a feel in the seat and steering wheel. Feels/sounds like it's in 4WD.

Hey gang.
Lost the nut holding on the rear wiper arm. Anyone know what the thread size is? I've tried some of my random spares, but nothing fits.
Thanks
Got mine (finally) installed the other day on our 2016 Exped. They had them on sale (10%) around Black Friday and I just now got around to putting it on. Ridiculously easy.
So far the new harness seems to be doing it's job. I installed it about 2 weeks ago and no complaints yet. Hopefully the newer design from Ford fixes whatever the flaw was with the old one.
Well, a year later and we're having the same issue. What is it with this connector that keeps failing? Is the gauge too small causing it to overheat, or is it simply poor connection causing the heat-up? Anyone have a permanent fix?
New radiator is in and no leaks. That lower hose connector is really odd. Let's hope that is the end of it's needs for awhile. We did remove the front driveshaft to track down a vibration issue. Looks like I'll need to get that balanced, but that's a topic for another thread.
A couple weeks in and she is still running great. However, the radiator must have been jealous of all the attention, because it started leaking a few days ago. The plastic end has a split right down the side. Still drive-able for short trips (my son uses this to get to practice and work). New...
