When I try and set the set button, it just flashes each time I push it. Spraying wd 40 worked before, but it doesn't now.

Instead of WD 40 try electronic contact cleaner, the WD 40 will work a few time, as you have discovered, but it contains petroleum oil as well as alcohol, and will eventually create an insulation, instead of a better contact, with that oil. The solvent in the contact cleaner will correct that. Hopefully.
Oh, and the rubber cover.. On a stalk or is it a push button? What year Explorer?
Can't find proper instructions to get cover off. I had radio controls up, not CC here we are
Douse it with contact cleaner. I don't think it will harm rubber/plastic
