My dad had the same problem with his sundance and it turned out he had a cracked head. Answer Check your heater, if you turn your heater on and it blows cold air, then its is likely that the water pump has either failed or the belt has separated, either by age or because the pulley has fallen apart (plastic - replaceable)

Does replacement of a low speed fan in a 1995 Ford Contour V-6 require a new computer and if so does it require dealer reprogramming?

Not necessarily on either. A used computer will not require a reprogramming. Also, if the fan itself is damaged, then unit would be replaced not the computer.


Automatic Trans stays in 2nd gear Code indicates speed sensor or computer fault What to do?

I had a Contour that had a similar problem except it wouldn't shift out of first. It would just rev higher and higher put wouldn't upshift. It was the Vehicle Speed Sensor that was bad. Replaced it and it ran fine after that. This problem sounds similar. Hope this helps.
