If the wrench light illuminates on the dashboard of your 2010 Ford Explorer, it signifies that the ECU (engine control unit) has detected an issue. I suggest pulling over quickly, as continuing to drive could lead to further damage to your SUV. Once you have safely parked, use an OBD II scan tool to retrieve the error code that triggered the light. The issue could range from a minor loose gas cap to more severe problems with the engine or transmission. If you discover a significant problem, it is important to schedule a visit with a Ford mechanic for a thorough inspection and necessary repairs.

I'm noticing my yellow wrench light illuminating on my 2010 Explorer about every third time I drive it. I believe this issue may be connected to a recent incident where the same wrench light appeared in red with a "SERVICE RSC NOW" message, accompanied by an alarm sound, causing the transmission to lock in 3rd gear until I restarted the vehicle due to a loose connector in the console. Despite returning to the dealership, no error codes were found stored. The light can be turned off by pressing the reset button or shutting off the ignition. I plan to bring the vehicle to the shop to read the codes while the light is on during operation.
