What causes brake lights all three on a 1999 Ford Escort to stay on?

The brake switch at the pedal is stuck and should be replaced. Also check to see if hard rubber round pad on the brake petal is missing which makes contact on brake switch. The back of the pad has a pull through tab that secures it through the hole in the arm. This tab brakes off and the pads falls off and keeps the switch open and lights will stay on. It happened on my wife's car.

How do you change the timing belt on 1994 ford escort lx?

Take the covers off (10 or 11 mm bolts). look for a mark on the cog and on the engine block sometimes thers a hole that you can put a bolt in but not allways. turn with spanner till they line up. drop left side of the engine but put a jack under it b4 you unbolt anything. once dropped jack car up and mark every cog with tip ex then mark the engine so they all line up like the top cog. There should be a TENSION COG in the middle (DRAW A GUIDE SO YOU KNOW HOW THE BELT GOES ROUND THE COGS). loosen the TENSION COG so the belt is loose take belt off if theres any bits bolted to the engine take em off out the way. put new belt on then re tension the belt. you want it a nice snug fit not too loose not to tight that it comes off. put everything back in reverse order jack engine back up bolt it too the car and you're done. if there isn't a tension cog just undo the bottom cog ( 19 or 22 mm i think) take belt off put new 1 on from bottom upwards. leave the top cog till last. put the belt on from the back of car towards you get a spanner on the cog and a blunt flat screwdriver between the belt and the cog and turn push at the same time til it goes on. make sure all the cogs line up with marks b4 you start the engine. YOU'RE DONE ALL IN ALL ABOUT 2-3 HOUR JOB if you've never done it 4!!! gud luck I have the same car so ask me if you get stuck!!

Why is your Renault megane cooling fan remaining on and will not stop?

There is a hit unit inside the engine compartment (look for a covered black box at the left side of the car).

inside - you'll find a black electronic device (looks like a big fuse). take it out and it should stop the fan from working.

There is a thermal unit in it - it must have been stuck.

Replace this unit (very cheap)

hope this helps.

Where is the fan switch on a 1998 Ford Escort?

The fan is operated by the computer when the temperature of the cooling system reaches a specific temperature or when the air conditioner is turned on. It does this through sensors. When the temperature sensor or the air conditoner sensor sends an impulse to the computer it in turn operates the fan through the CCRM. (Constant Control Relay Module). It is under the right strut tower below the air filter housing. If the fan isn't coming on and the engine is overheating the fault is either the temperature sensor or the realys.

How do you set the clock on a 1997 Ford Escort?

On the original radio installed on my 1997 Ford Escort, to the right of the LED time are two tiny buttons: H and M. To change either Hour or Minute, press on the button while simultaneously pressing either the "-" or "+" button that is located below the Bass and Treble buttons. My factory radio (96 Wagon, 1.9L) had a 'Clock' button. All you do is hold it, and press seek left and right to control hours, and minutes. I dont know if this will help, not sure what style radio you have.

You have to keep adding fluid to the clutch reservoir There is no leak at the cylinder but you did notice a dripping from underneath the engine What could this be from?

If you're POSITIVE the clutch slave cylinder isn't leaking, there's only two other places it could come from. The clutch master cylinder or the hydraulic line in between the master and the slave cylinder. Maybe I'm confused. Isn't the clutch Master cylinder the one that the owner would check, and the slave cylinder inside the transmission?

How do you change the headlight assembly on a 1995 ford escort lx?

Headlight Assembly 1995 Ford EscortI did just that today. The side blinker lights have 2 screws (One you have to open the hood to reach and one that is on the lower bottom corner towards the tires) that need to be taken out, take off the decorative grill (screw under hood, dead center and four plastic holders on each side of the grill {twist to remove [I think} because mine were broken}) there are 2 bolts on each side of the headlight assembly and one on top. Easy peasy, even a girl (ME!!) can do it. I used a 10mm socket for most of it and a Phillips heas screwdriver for the blinker lights. Now I just need to figure out where all of the adjusting screws are and how they work.

How does a rainstorm start?

Answer It starts like this...well everybody knows how its starts, it just simply starts when it first the sky will get dark or it will get cloudy then starts falling a little bit of drops of rain slowly then it gets faster and faster. that's how rain starts.

Rainbows occur when sunlight passes through drops of water. This is why you see rainbows after rain or at fountains and waterfalls. Light moves at different velocities through air and through water. So when sunlight passes through water, it is dispersed. It is first refracted when it enters the droplet, reflected of the back of the drop, and then it is refracted again as it leaves. This refraction of the light into angles within the drop leads to it being visible, and the wavelength of the light is what depends its colour.

After rain when sky is clear from the clouds and there is water everywhere. The sun shines on this water and reflects on the sky as rainbow.
