Your heater is getting warmer when you decelerate and colder when you accelerate?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This issue is likely due to a problem with the heater control valve or the vacuum system that controls the valve. When you decelerate, engine vacuum increases and can cause the valve to open, allowing hot coolant to flow through the heater core. Conversely, when you accelerate, the decrease in vacuum can cause the valve to close, cutting off the flow of hot coolant and reducing the heat from the heater.

What should you do if you installed a new light in an old house that uses a dimmer switch and now the light won't turn off?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's possible that the dimmer switch is not compatible with the new light fixture. Try replacing the dimmer switch with a regular on/off switch to see if that resolves the issue. If the problem persists, consult a licensed electrician for further assistance to avoid any potential safety hazards.

Why would a 1993 Ford Taurus engine stall when the weather is humid and hot?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Hot and humid weather can exacerbate issues with ignition components such as spark plugs, ignition coils, or spark plug wires. Moisture can interfere with the spark delivery, causing the engine to stall. Additionally, heat can also lead to vapor lock in the fuel system, interrupting fuel delivery and causing stalling.

How do you install a throttle positioning sensor on a 2003 Taurus?

User Avatar

Asked by Ford03

remove 2 screws holding it on , use a ratcheting wrench with a small Phillips head. Remove harness & repeat to install. The 2 screws are on pretty tight so be careful not to strip them out. This is about 20$ at Auto Zone.

How do you fix a window that does not go up in a Citroen ZX?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

First make sure that the fuses are all OK. Then check the window relays. Then check to see if the other windows move up-down. If they do then the problem is with that window only.

It could be the motor is jammed. A jammed motor can somtimes be enticed to work by holding the window switch in the up mode while slamming the door. It could be the control switch is dirty. It could be that you have to take the door panel off and check to see what is binding the lift mechanism. Many such motors have a thermal cutout when they can't close the window they tend to overheat and then disconnect - cutout. It may be that it is opened.

If the car is older there is more dirt accumulated at the control switches. You may have to take that apart or off and buy some CONTACT cleaner or tuner cleaner from Radio Shack or somewhere and spray INTO the switches while moving the switches.

It is also possible that one of the control wires fell off - highly unlikely but possible.

I would go to the library and borrow a book on how to remove the door panel.

How can you fix the trunk release on a 1996 or 1997 Ford Taurus when the key won't or doesn't work?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This may be a simple fix.... Ford door and trunk locks are notorius for "freezing up". Buy a can of lithium spray grease, insert the stem that comes with the can into the lock, and spray the lock with the lithium grease lubricant. This may free it up. You should lubricate the locks on your doors and trunk at least once a year. Note: This will also work on the locks to your house. It keeps them operating smoothly. If that doesn't work, perhaps you don't have the correct key for the trunk. Many Ford vehicles require one key for the doors and a different key for the trunk.

Not necessarily, many low end models from different manufacturers only have a key hole on the drivers door and are not keyless entry, probably more for cost savings

How to tell if fuel pump is bad on a 2001 for Taurus?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Park the car is a quiet location and turn the ignition key on but do not start the engine. Listen carefully for the sound of the fuel pump. It will run for a few seconds and then shut down which is normal. If you do not hear the pump, either the pump is bad, the fuse is blown, or the fuel pump relay is defective. You may also hear the pump and it can still be pumping with so low a pressure as to be defective. Make sure your problem is not a clogged fuel filter. Replace the filter asap. If the car has over 100,000 miles on the Odometer you probably need a new pump, especially if you have neglected to replace the fuel filter every 50,000 miles. A clogged fuel filter will burn a fuel pump up very quickly.

Where is the TCC solenoid on a 1996 Ford Taurus - Mercury Sable?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The TCC Solenoid is located on the valve body. In order to reach the unit you have to remove the Battery and Battery housing, Air Filter housing & Assembly, And the wiring harness brackets. You then have to support the rear of the engine and remove the Crossmember located behind the drivers side front wheel. There are 5 bolts and 1 mounting bolt. The TCC is secured by 2 bolts directly to the valve body. It is hard but this can be changed with the transaxle still in the vehicle.

Why does water suddenly stop running then start again after a couple minutes?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you get a clunky knocking noise from the pipes of your water system it is air-lock, like an air bubble in the pipes. The only way to get rid of it is to let the water run or if you have bleed-points bleed it (put an old towel down first) It is common for this to happen if you have turned the water off or drained the system for maintainance.

What happens when a cam position sensor goes bad?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

When mine would go, the engine would all of sudden stop running. Like if you were trying to compression start a standard engine. Only it happen to me when I was doing 80 kph. The it would start again. For some people, once it occurred the engine will never start. Ford did eventually put out a recall on them but that was a long time ago. The I went to have things repaired had told me that there is no real indication when they will fail. In fact, they had installed a new sensor into a truck and the next day the sensor failed. So until it fails just keep driving it.

How do you replace the headlight - headlamp bulb on a 1996-1999 Mercury Sable - Ford Taurus?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It appears there are 3 small bolts (10mm(?) that hold the headlight assembly in place. Remove those and the entire headlight will come out - that will make access to the bulb a whole lot easier!

Twist the collar-type retainer on the back of the headlamp to release the bulb socket - pull straight out.

NOTE: Do not touch the glass of the new halogen bulb - the oils in the skin will shorten the life-span of the new bulb.

Also - there are instructions and diagrams for this in the Owner's Manual that came with the car - See "Related Questions" for free online copy of the Owners Manual

Answerunder the hood you reach under the front cowling behind the headlight and gently pull the connector off (don't pry up on it or it will break) and then twist the ring holding it in and your set. Unbolting the battery on the drivers side and moving it in helps also. Just don't unbolt anything on the headlight or alignment can be off. Answerif it is the light bulb that needs changing then open the hood and behind the light fixture there will be a wire going into the fixture. at the end of the wire there is a rubber insulator connected to the fixture turn that counter clockwise and pull it out, and the connection should come out the bulb will be in the connection. then just simply replace and put it back in. if the fixture is broken then you will have to take it to a mechanic.
