Noises problem
1994 Ford Explorer Four Wheel Drive Automatic
----------------------------------------------------------------
I have an old explorer that started to make a loud high pitch squealing noise when it is in motion. It happens almost all of the time but occasionally stops for a little bit. The noise gets louder when you press the brake but continues as you drive. Please help me figure out what the problem is.

HAve some one on the outside of the truck listen as you pass them. They can narrow down which wheel it is coming from.

IT sounds like a brake pad warning sensor that is telling you that the pads are worn out.
