What causes a 1967 Mustang Dash brake light to come on?

Could be low brake fluid ... this should be checked at least once a week along with the rest of the engine fluid levels.

Not knowing what, if anything, was happening before the dash light came on makes answering difficult. Usually some symptoms will occur for days or weeks before it gets bad enough for the warning lamp to come on.

Answer

I would guess that either the car is low on brake fluid and/or there could be something wrong with the master brake cylinder or brake fluid lines. Check the brake fluid. If it's not low, it's most likely the brake cylinder. If it is low, add fluid and check it often to make sure it's not leaking. If it's leaking, find the leak and fix it. If it's the master cylinder, fix it. It is vital that there be nothing wrong with the brake system. You eventually won't be able to stop if something is wrong with the brake system.!

I do not believe the 67 had any type of brake monitoring system, the brake light most likely is a reminder that the parking brake is engaged, if it is not engaged check the switch at the lever, it may be stuck

How to remove and replace the radio from 2005 Ford Explorer xlt?

Tools NeededTo remove the radio you will need a "Radio Removal Tool". This is a "U" shaped pin with a dent at the end. This can be commonly found at auto parts stores or, WalMart, etc (widely available for $3-$4). Steps To Remove the Stock RadioThe radio has two holes in each end (four holes total)
  • Insert the removal tool into the holes on each side (This will release the catches holding the radio into the dash)
  • Slide the radio toward you
Other ReferencesThe link below gives instructions for radio removal and includes photos

You can also make your own removing tool from a wire coat hanger: cut 2 U-shaped pieces (about 8" each) and insert them into the 2 holes in the front of your head unit; using a sideways motion and pulling towards you will do the trick, just be carefull when inserting the tool to not scratch the finish on the unit.

I tried the wire hangar solution but went and bought the tool anyway. Either would probably work, but the tool is a bit more sturdy / stiff. Here are the instructions that come with the tool:

  • Disconnect negative battery wire
  • Insert the removal tool into the holes on either side of the faceplate
  • Push the tools forward about 1 inch until the retaining clips are released
  • Grasp the tools tightly and pull apart slightly as you pull the unit from the dash

-Simply use a number 7 socket to remove the 2 mounting screws, then use a flat head screw driver to pry it out. JLKautoparts.com

How do get the rear hub asembely off a 2002 explorer?

I just replaced the rear brakes on our 02 explorer. If you have 4 wheel disc than the rear "hubs" are rotor hubs and once you remove the callipers you may have to back off on the emergency brake pads by turning the self adjuster. By the way you shouldn't have the e-brake on at all or you can not remove the rear rotor-hubs.

Does an 2005 Ford Explorer have an automatic transmission dip stick?

NO the 5 r 55 e transmission does not use the typical dipstick for checking fluid.Instead they figured that crawling under the truck to check the fluid with tools u probably dont have would be a much better method.Start the truck.crawl underneath.locate the smaller bolt on the pan.Usually a bigger bolt with a SMALLER BOLT IN THE CENTER OF THE BIG ONE.remove smaller center bolt if fluid dosent drip steadly its low on fluid.
