SOURCE: 1998 ford explorer speed senors

The VSS was deleted for 1998. The vehicle speed signal is generated by the rear anti-lock brake sensor and sent to the 4-wheel anti-lock brake system (4WABS) module. The 4WABS module sends the vehicle speed signal via circuit 679 (GY/BK) to all systems which require a vehicle speed signal input.

Did you recently change tires to maybe a different tire size. If so this may be your problem.If so to correct this you would have to have this calibrated into the PCM with a scan tool.

There is also a technical service bulletin out for harsh downshifts the number is 99-8-7. This requires a reprogram of the PCM.

1998 Ford Explorer Owner's Manual

You can check you local library.Most auto parts stores have them on hand or you can order on line. You could find Chilton repair manual for Ford Ranger, Explorer, and Mountainer, 1991-99 from $5 use up to $30 new.Haynes also have repair manuals but thinking Chilton would be better for your applicatio or visit this link about Ford Owners Manual.

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

I have a 98 ford explorer 6 cylnder and my check engine light is on and my car eats gas peole tell me I need a ho2 bank 1 censor 1

Did the people get their information from checking for what code(s) are stored in the ECM?
If yes, then replace the sensor in the exhaust before the catalytic converter on the #1 side (If memory serves me that would be the right side)

1996 ford explorer (eddie brauer add) transmission problems

I have no idea where you live but What i would do is get a diagnostics test , some places will hook a computer up to your computer for free, Not very many people know this but if you go to a parts store they have a Little computer that they will give you one better they get codes but they will tell you what the codes are and what they mean and it will be in a doctor talk that you cant quite make out.
good luck
