Interior lights don't shut off in Ford Windstar?
I've had this problem since I bought the car six months ago. It's a 96 Ford windstar. When I get out of the car and shut the doors the interior lights won't turn off for 20 minutes to a half hour, I haven't timed it exactly. Also the door ajar warning light stays on while I'm driving. I have tried multiple times going around and slamming all the doors to make sure they are truly closed. Oddly, when it rains the interior and warning lights will turn off like they're supposed to. Anyone else have this problem and know what to to about it? I would like to avoid disconnecting the lights completely but it is taking its toll on my battery.
2002 ford explorer has no 4 wheel drive. lights on dash wont even light up?
If a trans shop can't diagnose this system they might want to get into an line of work! I don't know if you are aware that this system is protected by 5 fuses, 2 are located in the BJB (battery junction box, under the hood) they are both (20 amp, yellow) and the fuse location # is 17 and 18. and the other 3 fuses are in the CJB (central junction box, inside the vehicle) these are 5 amp fuses and are in locations 12, 15, and 29! The 4WD module is mounted on the blower motor housing under the passenger side of the dash) The 4WD control module is a very common failure on this vintage of explorer! NOTE: If replacing the 4WD control module, be aware that there are three different modules available, depending on vehicle build date and configuration. They are not interchangeable.
Why wont my interior lights go out in my 1999 Ford Crown Victoria?
Do you have the electronic keypad on the drivers door? These can sometimes cause problems with the interior lights. There are a few other possibilities but the keypad is a fairly common instigator of interior electrical drain. If you don't have the door code or use the pad at all, the easiest thing to do is pull the interior panel off of your drivers door and just unplug the connector on the back of the keypad. Also, just for good measure don't use the Autolamp setting for your headlights...just turn them on and off as you need. I have heard of the lighting module getting weird too. One last thing...spray some WD-40 into the latch that holds your door shut. This latch is part of telling your car when to turn courtesy lamps on and off, and can sometimes build up corrosion that the WD-40 will help to clean.
My brake lights don't work on my 2003 Ford Expedition. The bulbs and fuses are ok, any ideas?
If you have checked your fuses and bulbs there is a relay switch under your hood that controls your brake lights, also you have to check the ground wires in the rear lights located some where around the rear tail light section. you also have a brake light switch located down by your brake pedal. It's not easy to get at but if you can find it . jump the switch with a wire and see if your brake lights turn on. or the switch may just need adjustment. there is a slide screw that you can losen to adjust the switch. it's a simple promblem but hard to get at. Thats why dealerships charge you so much money. Sincerely yours, Fred M. Hunter fmhguitars@yahoo.com
Have 97 lincoln mark 8 tail lights not working, brake lights turn signal back up etc all k what could be wrong?
The bulbs filament is burnt. Each rear tail light bulb has a double filament. The bright one is for the turn, brake, and hazard lights. The other is for the park lights. The bulb should be a 3157. If by chance a 3156 bulb was installed the lights wouldn't work right, because this bulb is a single filament. Double check your bulbs. Hope this helps and good luck. Christopher
How to turn on lights in 2000 mustang gt?
Borrowing my friends car for the weekend, and honestly, I have no idea how to turn on the lights =/ because the windshield wiper switch is where the light switch is in any other car I've driven...
1996 Ford Ranger turn signal and hazzard flashers stopped working.?
Usually the multifunction switch or the connector in back of the turn signal causes the problems on Fords... the terminals don't make good enough contact and bam no more... Try hitting the steering colum and hitting the emergency flasher button on top a few times and see if it returns.. if it does, it's the switch
Why are my brake lights not working on my 1998 Ford Explorer Sport?
first check the fuses (15a fuse in slot 27 in the interior fuse panel) . the check the brake on/off switch located at the pedal. also check to make sure you have good wiring from the switch to the light sockets (check but using an ohm meter) to make sure there isn't a break in the wiring between the switch and lights, especially near the boo switch under the dash. also check to make sure you have a good ground at the lights (behind left side kick panel) also, if you have add on trailer harness, check to make sure that isn't interfering in any way
Which Autozone locations perform free check engine light diagnostics?
Most AutoZone locations will generally read the OBD2 codes stored in your car’s engine computer. The stand-alone scan tools to do it start at about $20. However, this is only part of what’s necessary to actually fix your car. The car’s engine computer can tell you what particular fault(s) it detected, but any given fault could be caused by a variety of things. To figure out what you actually need to do to fix the problem generally requires some troubleshooting skills and/or the advice of a competent mechanic.All too often people will replace a failed component based on the stored code without resolving the underlying issue that caused that component to fail. AutoZone will be more than happy to sell you whatever parts you need for your car, but unless you’re replacing the right ones that’s not going to fix the problem.I’d also highly recommend investing in your own OBD2 code reader. Even though AutoZone will read the codes for free as it’s a procedure that takes about 30 seconds to do, you can buy your own code reader for under $10 that will connect to your phone via Bluetooth, or a stand-alone code reader that pulls the exact same information that the reader AutoZone uses for about $20-$30. AutoZone even sells them. That way you never have to worry about trying to figure out which locations will read your codes for you as you’ll be able to do it yourself - and reset your check engine light if necessary.
Honda Accord (1999) turn signal relay?
it is in the driver's side under dash fuse and relay box. you can't see it unless you take the bolt out and drop the fuse box down as its on the opposite side from the rows of fuses that you see when you look at the fuse box from down under the dash. there should be one bolt that holds the fuse and relay box in place. once you drop the fuse and relay box down you should't have any problem finding the relay. hope that helps
