although i am not sure if there is a relay or not, my friend had a 95 Taurus and he hit a hard bump and the car would not start after that... i looked at it and it looks like Ford used a spade terminal on the starter solenoid wire. it can come off very easily, and is probably dirty and oily.it is very easy to get to, if you lay under the front of the car you can see it, it's a thin wire. it will pull right off.
If your car makes no click when you turn the key, and the other things inside the car work (radio, gauges, domelight) then it is VERY LIKELY that this is the problem.
The starter relay is on top of the starter.
The price for an ignition switch for a 2000 Ford Taurus is around $60.00. Installation for an ignition switch will typically take between 60-90 minutes. Labor costs will run around $100.00 for installation.
The 1992 Ford Taurus starter solenoid is bolted onto the side of the starter itself. The starter is at the rear of the engine at the bell housing.
Ijust paid 289.00 to have a new starter put on my 2003 Taurus.

Maybe you have a problem in your main wiring harness. No fun.. Could also be an electrical sensor.
Change ignition.
yes! change the starter!
check the ignition switch on topof the steering column
yes
The starter solenoid is not disengaging once engine is started. Rebuild starter or replace with a new starter.
in a 1997 Ford Taurus if you lift hood to disable alarm will the ignition shutdown and lockout automatically?
