The rear heater core on the 2006 Ford Explorer can be found under the hood close to the engine. Removing it is a straightforward process, but you must follow specific steps. First, locate the hoses connected to it, unclamp them, and allow them to drain. After that, you can proceed to unbolt the heater core, which is secured by two bolts and one screw. Once this is complete, you can lift it out. Install the new heater core, reattach the hoses, and consider adding more coolant as needed, depending on the amount that drained out during the process. Topping up the coolant is simple; there's no need to flush the system.

I'm not sure what car you're checking out, but replacing the heater core on an Explorer isn't as simple as you're thinking. This part is tucked in between the firewall and the dashboard, meaning you have to take out the entire dash to access it. If you've tackled this task before, it's typically an 8-hour job.
