New member with a 96 EB

[greybeard8]

Hello everyone, Just found this forum and looking forward to learning how to maintain my new to me Eddie Bauer 96 Bronco. It has a 5.0 auto, in very nice condition. So far I have only discovered a passenger door lock problem. That will be my first repair. Never had one apart so I am depending on this Forum to learn how to get it fixed.

Yo greybeard8,
Welcome and congrats on acquiring the very best year Big Bronco known to men, women, children and canines!

ASAP, find out if speed control recall work, if equipped was completed. If you still have concerns about Recalls, please contact the Ford Customer Relationship Center:
US: 800-392-3673 | CA: 800-565-3673
Note: 3673 spells "FORD" on phone keys
For the hearing- or speech-impaired: Please contact the Telecommunication Relay Service by dialing 71
... have VIN ready.
"Summary: ON CERTAIN PICKUP TRUCKS, PASSENGER VEHICLES, SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, AND MOTOR HOMES CHASSIS, THE SPEED CONTROL DEACTIVATION SWITCH MAY, UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, LEAK INTERNALLY AND THEN OVERHEAT, SMOKE, OR BURN. THIS COULD RESULT IN AN UNDERHOOD FIRE."
To confirm current status, use this guide by jowens1126 @ 93 & 94-96 Cruise Control Recalls Repair
Note that the 93 recall is different than the 94-96 recall.

Well, as it turns out, I have the red version of the switch on the master cylinder, with a pigtail and a blue tag on it. The truck looks like almost new inside, outside and under it, but it's clear the P O did the temp fix. I still didn't decide if I should get the black version of the switch. This is all new to me. My other truck is a 78 f 150, so this 96 will have a learning curve for me.
