2004 Ford Explorer 4.0 V6. The EGR valve, can that make your car not shift? It comes on flashing 'Overdrive Off' and then doesn't want to shift or move.

Question edited for clarity and add punctuation. Question moved to model category. No, the EGR Valve recirculates exhaust gases to burn them a bit more and has no link to the transmission. You need an auto electrician or a transmission specialist. https://www.google.com/search?q=2004+ford+explorer+4.0+overdrive+off+light+flashing ..

2007 Ford Explorer (Eddie Bauer) Does anybody know what's wrong?

Anon (no miles odometer told) the starter is dead? if yes say so clearly, starter silent, clicks, chatters or is 100% dead. silent. starter dead has 6 causes (plus Alternator tests too) engine dead up to 50 (valve springs broken of 24 there?) step 1 is check fuses #2 the jumper cable the battery and crank it over? the new battery is now dead. discharged from excessive cranking,or learn to keep the battery charged until it starts again. once started we do alternator tests, 13v to 15vdc running at lugs of battery. the engine shut off driving,? on the fly driving alternator bad or fuses to it blown. learn to use a voltmeter at the battery cranking 11vdc is par, CRANKING less means battery is weak or bad or simply discharged. a 2man test,1 cranks other measures battery lugs. all 4 lugs tight,and cleaned of rust. 2cables = 4 lugs. to fail. we use tools and meters and tests to find what is wrong what engine 4.0 L Cologne SOHC V6 4.6 L Modular 24-valve V8 ?>??????/ VIN #8 code ? cam chain failure?' scans show cam timing off? the driving to work stall sure can be the alternator dead or just 16 year old bad spark plugs? or 16 year old COP boots bad, sure the are that old filters bad? clogged. my guess (never accurate) guessing. is when driving to work, the GEN/CHARGE/BATTERY lamp in cluster was glowing and this is why it stalled then didnt do the jumper cable jump starte and see OMG all is good but the ALT /gen is dead. and stalls again in say 1 hours, driving and battery is dead again , wash wear repeat.

2006 Ford Explorer. Intermittent fuel pump issue?

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to model category. It is difficult to test things like relays when you have an intermittent fault because it could test okay 9 times out of 10. They are not expensive, I would swap out the fuel pump relay for a new one. If that doesn't fix it, you need and auto electrician with a pro grade scan tool computer. They can record what is happening when things go wrong.

1999 Ford Explorer. Why does my car "shimmy" above 50 mph.

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to model category. It could be so many things. Look at the YouTube channel called 'Just Rolled In'. United States vehicles in terrible condition being driven into garages all across America. It could be so many things and needs to be put up on a hoist and checked. In no particular order. Loose wheel lugs or only 1 wheel lug bald tires over inflated or under inflated tires deformed tires with bulges, wheels out of balance bent rims worn tie rod ends worn wheel bearings broken suspension springs failed shock absorber struts rusted out parts on anything holding the wheels worn sway bar bushes (called 'sway bar' for good reason) Not an exhaustive list, but likely one of the above. more here https://www.google.com/search?q=1999+Ford+Explorer.+Why+does+my+car+%22shimmy%22+above+50+mph ..
