How to service and repair the front bumper cover on 2006 Ford Explorer?

You should start repairs of front bumper cover on Explorer and Mountaineer by removing the headlamp assemblies first. Any equipment requiring a connector for the fog lamp or side turn signal lamp needs to be disconnected for the following procedure. You must unscrew both screws and pin-type retainers that attach the front fender inner splash shields before taking out the shields. The service requires removal of 2 bolts at the bumper cover base while unscrewing 6 grille opening-to-grille opening panel scrivets. Utilize a flat-blade screwdriver to separate the locking tabs of the fender clips from the bumper cover because these clips will detach alongside the front fender.

Press the bottom part of the front bumper cover upward as you apply pressure at the top surface to free its 3 locking tabs. Conclude by uninstalling the front bumper cover then follow the removal steps in reverse to install it.
