Check the pressure switch on the dehydrator bottle. Disconnect it and "jump" the connector with a short piece of wire. If this works then you either need a charge or the switch is bad. The dehydrator bottle is a silver "pill" looking canister about 8 to 12 inches long. It SHOULD have a hire harness going to it (and of course A/C hoses). There is where you will find the switch.

It is on top of the throttle body. If you follow the air intake up past the air filter assembly you come to a point where this molded rubber asssembly connects to the motor. The IAC valve has two bolts and a wire that connects to it. Sometime a code indicating a problem with the IAC valve may be tripped by a bad PCV valve. Consider replacing the PCV valve first since it is only a $3 part.

Where is the horn on a 1990 Ford Probe LX?
I think it's near the front driver side wheel well ..and that's about all I know If I find out more I'll post it..
AnswerI have a 90' GL and the horn is on the passenger side in front of the tire under the bumber skirt. AnswerI have a 1990 Probe LX, and I had to replace the horn. You'll need to take off the Driver's Side Front Wheel. Remove the shielding to the front of the wheel, and it should be right there. Sometimes it has a weird mounting bracket, and if it's a wiring problem, you're gonna have issues, but if you're just replacing the horn, it shouldn't be a problem. OEM horns are a signel-wire connection, so make sure your horn has that option.Where is the thermostat located on a 1997 Ford Escort?
If you follow your spark plug wires to where they all plug in to a black "box" you are right above it. You simply have to remove this box and holder and the radiator hose goes right below this area. Remove the hose, remove the bolts and you will find the thermostat inside this area.

replace the switch... there is a spring steel L shaped clip that goes around a V shaped slide and that plastic slide breaks on them... i have the same problem and looking for a used switch cause the ford dealers want $112.00(can) for a new one. I suggest buying any toggle/push-button switch and rewire it (as the ford switch will break again). A new switch from Radio Shack (or equivalent) is easy to install and will only cost you just $5. Here's the wiring info for your convenience: (The stock Ford switch is a 5 terminal switch)

How to you adjust the idle speed?
How to adjust the idle speed
If you have a carburetor, there is a crew on the driver side behind the throttle cable it usually has a spring on it if you turn it to the right it idles up left it idles down
If its a fuel injected motor idle is handled by the computer. There usually is a "base idle speed" around 800-1000 RPM. This normally doesn't need to be adjusted.
Have a look for carbon build up on the butterfly as well, this will influence idle too.
u can also adjust the cable there's two nuts that hold the the cable to the injection adjust one way to lower and the other way to raise
Also: check & tighten all hoses as even slightly leaking hoses raise & lower ur idle speed.
