Get your Mom to walk behind the truck when you're backing up. Make sure you're going at least 25mph. If the sensors sound off, stop immediately and Mom is saved. If they don't sound off, replace the sensors. (Obviously, Mom can't be replaced.)
take it to parts America have them read the codes that's begining signs of a vss vehicle speed sensor going , or tr sensor transmission range sensor
Trouble Code P1210 means:Throttle Postion TP Sensor out of self test range
P0500 is loss of vehicle speed signal. You need to test the speed sensor.
Code 12 displayed during self test, per Ford, takes you to test TP, for the throttle position sensor. It could be the failure of the throttle position sensor, idle speed or throttle stop adjustments, throttle shaft or linkage, and/or cruie control linkage.
To replace the speed sensor on a 1998 Ford Windstar, first, locate the sensor, which is typically found on the transmission. Disconnect the electrical connector and unscrew the sensor from its mounting. Install the new sensor by screwing it in place, reconnecting the electrical connector, and finally, ensuring everything is secured. It's advisable to clear any diagnostic trouble codes and test drive the vehicle to confirm proper operation.
how to test crank sensor
As I understand it, Bank 2 should indicate driver side, and sensor 1 should be the sensor closest to the front of the car, upstream of the catalytic converter. The safest way to find out for sure, is to find an honest Ford service technician and ask! Good luck
You can either use a multimeter or a lab scope. When using a multimeter check the 12 volts from the battery at the connector then take the sensor out and check the resistance from the sensor's pins. Check the specs from the manufacturer. Although a correct spec does not necessarily means the sensor is good. This sensor normally fails when they are hot and not when they are cold. The advantage of using a lab scope is that you can test the sensor while the car is hot and running and by seeing the wave
To test an abs sensor for a Lexus ES you will need to use a multimeter. The multimeter will determine if the abs sensor works or not.
The attached to the "Related Question" below has links to Autozone's Chiltons Repair Manual - specifically the O2 sensor sections. Not only covers installation, but there are instructions on testing.
Using a Digital Multimeter set to 2k,..the resistance should be 200 to 900 ohms ifnot replace,
The P0141 code on a 1997 Ford Ranger indicates a problem with the oxygen sensor heater circuit for the bank 1 sensor 2. To fix this issue, first, inspect the wiring and connectors leading to the oxygen sensor for any damage or corrosion. If the wiring is intact, test the sensor itself and replace it if faulty. Additionally, check the fuse related to the oxygen sensor heater circuit and replace it if necessary.
