I have the same year Explorer and my radio had the same problem... The problem was in the radio and it just needed to be replaced with a new one.
With about 10 lbs. of C4.
On a 1999 Ford Explorer , there are 2 fuses in the fuse panel on the driver's end of the dash ( the cover is visible with the driver's door open ) for the radio. In location # 29 is a 10 amp fuse for the radio and In location # 20 is a 7.5 amp fuse for the radio / GEM / and rap module (Helpfull) On a 1999 Ford Explorer Sport the radio fuse/relay location # is 28 a 7.5 amp fuse, 29 a 25 amp fuse, and 34 and 36 which control the CD function and are both 7.5 amp fuses.
remove center bezel and ignition lock cover and remove the 4 screws and unplug connectors and antenna lead in rear of radio
It may be that the "Hot wire" is connected to the Hot side of a fuse in the fusebox.
try pushing the 2 and 5 buttons at the same time, this shouldremove the headphone symbol
Yes , in the center stack of the dash , to the right of the radio
Because 99 model has automatic headlights, in order to turn it off you have to turn the headlight switcher off, and also remove keys from the ignition.
No , the 1999 Ford Explorer Sport and the 1999 Ford Explorer 4 door have shock absorbers front and rear
