There is a reset switch inside the trunk on the left side. Look for the red button in the fender well area. This switch interupts the connection to ground. It is designed in case of a rollover. The relay itself is on the left side of the steering column under the dash. There are multiple relays in the cluster. According to the diagram in the Ford service manual it is the lower left one.

How do you fix a code p0171 system to lean bank 1 on a Daewoo Lanos 1999?

Check the tubing going from the air filter to the intake manifold to see if it has come loose. This might account for extra air going into the intake manifold than the computer is aware of. Otherwise it may be due to a faulty(or dirty) MAP/MAF sensor. Another possible cause is from low fuel pressure due to restricted fuel lines or a bad fuel pump.

How do you adjust a clutch in a 93 ford probe v6 dohc 5 speed?

if you look down where the clutch pedal is and look up to where it connects to the firewall you will see a medium sized pin or medal pole that the clutch pushes into if you look at that pole and follow it to where it meets the clutch pedal you will see a little nut on the pole turn the nut until the pole adjusts to the clutch pedal it will reduce play

(more info that may apply to your problem)

Pre 1997/9 models of Ford Vehicles were self-adjusting via the clutch-foot-pedal. The pedal engages a ratchet system called the QUADRANT & PAWL and is part of the pedal. The mechanism is very similar on older Ford models of: Escort, Fiesta, Sierra, Granada, Transit & others. Newer vehicles may have a Hydraulic Clutch from 1997/9 onwards, and these work differently from the cable & pully mechanism. Clutch-fluid can be bled to improve the ability to operate the clutch, however this is not necessarily a method of adjusting the clutch.

If your reading this article because you have a broken clutch-pedal then please read on.

If when pressing the foot-pedal it feels like cable is broken, or pedal is loose, ...This is symptomatic of failure of the QUADRANT & PAWL 'ratchet' mechanism due to wear of teeth on the ratchet.

In some cases the pedal fails to pull the clutch out far enough to change gear, and may make a 'springing noise'. This is due to slippage on some worn ratchet-teeth, but the mechanism has not reached full failure. There are 2 ways to remedy the fault.

1. Change the Quadrant & Pawl, using only genuine Ford parts. #Beware of inferior mouldings that are not up to standard e.g. too soft, and do not trust 'pattern-parts' on eBay etc.

2. SHORTEN THE CABLE.

  • Disconnect SPRING ON THE FOOT-PEDAL to release ratchet mechanism.
  • Clamp cable slack (engine end).

Why does the OD light keep flashing even though you press the button to turn it on or off in a '93 Ford Probe GT 6-cylinder?

If an O/D light flashes it typically means that there is a trouble code set. it could be a bad sensor or something else. as of your belt squealing when the A/C is turned on, it might be loose or worn out. when my O/D light never stoped blinking it is a problem with your tranny it trying to tell you some thing about a mo. after it started blinking the tranny died a really bad death get it checked out before to late it having problems with the gearing

Seems to be that the cd4e transmission is stated to be a bad tranny. When in actuality the vss sensor and some others are crap! Many Many people who own ford probes have had tranny probs! Sorry to say they have paid for them to be rebuilt and most of them only needed the sensors replaced. Look at them first!

How do you replace the trunk strut on a 1995 Ford Probe SE?

Support the hatch with a broomstick or other object. The hatch witout anys support is HEAVY. Remove one support strut by removing the bolts. The new strut comes with new hardware, ball sockets, etc. Install as shown on the picture directions that are included. Make sure you save an old bolt because the replacements that I used did not use all the old holes. Align the struct in the same direction as the old one. Carfully try to lower the hatch after installing the first replacement. Then repeat for the second one. Keep in mind there is a different strut number for cars with the spoiler, which is due to the extra weight of the spoiler. I ordered my repalcements from a venodr on eBay.

How do you Change o2 sensor on 93 probe gt?

you'll need a replacement sensor with either an exact fit or universal connector. The front sensor is visible sticking out of the exhaust pipe, if you open the hood and look near the bottom of the engine underneath the air intake tube (big plastic piece connected to air filter housing that bolts in above radiator). Rent a o2 sensor socket for free from an auto shop. You'll probably need to remove the air intake tube to access the o2 sensor, easy to do by unbolting and pulling off from air filter housing. Disconnect old sensor from electrical plug, and remove with the o2 sensr socket. replace with the new sensor and replace the air intake tube... whole thing takes 30 minutes at most.

Where is the horn in your 1989 Ford Probe?

My Ford service manager told me that the horn on my '91 Probe is under the driver's side front fender. My horn is on its way out and the one in our '91 Escort just died altogether. I can't find either one by searching around in the engine compartment, so it must be hidden under the fender somewhere. I just read that it might be a relay switch in the steering column that would couse the horn to stop working. This might be easier to check than taking the wheel off and searching under the fender. Good luck. Bill
