Hello i just boght a 1996 xplorer 4x4 i only have 2 wheel in foward but i have 4x4 in reverse anybudy have any idia what the problem might be thank's

 

maybe the transmission switch is bad. just a guess. do you need to hold the overide in to get it to work in reverse?

 

Yes i still need to fold the override buton in reverse to make it work and it works alittle bit in fowards but mot very much thank's

 

Sound like the switch in the shifter is bad.Hold a little presure on the shifter and see if it makes the AWD light come on.The shifters on these wear where the switch rides and there is a couple fixes!.a complete new shifter(most expensive but best)2.find a used one and hope it isnt bad too.#.tie a bungie cord to the shifter and the rack(not the best idea but wil work until it totally ruins the shifter.
