Is there a switch to turn on overdrive in a 1995 Mercury Tracer or is it in transmission itself?

According to the 1995 Tracer's Owner Guide (page 241): Overdrive is the usual driving position for an automatic overdrive transaxle(transmission). It works the same way D (Drive) works, AUTOMATICALLY upshifting or downshifting as the vehicle speeds or slows. However, Overdrive also shifts into a fourth gear (an overdrive gear) when your vehicle cruises at a consistent speed for any length of time (like on the Interstate). Overdrive will increase your fuel economy when you are traveling at cruise speeds (usually 50mph or higher). But, Overdrive may not be appropriate for certain terrain such as hilly or mountainous roads because the transaxle (transmission) automatically shifts back and forth between 3rd and 4th gears while doing this type of driving. Therefore, it is recommended if your car is continously climbing hills/mountains (which requires additional power) then you should shift to D (Drive).

How do you troubleshoot your ac in your 1999 mercury tracer?

The air conditioning in a Tracer works through the power relay below the air cleaner. The low pressure switch on the accumulator near the firewall and the high pressure switch near the radiator cross member feed signals to a relay in the power relay box under the air cleaner. This relay box then sends information to the A/C compressor clutch. If you can jack up the car, remove the right front wheel and splash shield, you can "back probe" the wires on the A/C clutch and see if they are getting about 13 volts when the engine is running and the A/C is on. If it has the voltage and the compressor is NOT running, the problem is in the compressor. If it doesn't have the 13 volts, the problem is electrical and is wiring, the relay box or one of the switches, including the dash controls. Good luck eliminating these. To be sure, you can run a wire from ground and the battery directly to the compressor clutch to see if it will engage. If it does, the problem is electrical; if it doesn't, the problem is in the compressor.

1998 mercury tracer heater and ac won't work no air will blow out at all?

It sounds like the blower is not blowing, check the fuse for the blower.

To add to the above, I had the same issue on a '97. I could hear it clicking and trying to blow but nothing came out. I took the blower motor housing off (located underneath behind the glove box...very easy to get to) and it was clogged with leaves, small twigs. Tried it with the gunk in it and it turned, cleaned it and it purred. Put it back together and works fine.

What is the obd2 reader code PO 111?

p0111 is intake air sensor 1 ckt range/perf-- to fix this code it can be a bad iat sensor or in wiring to it. the iat sensor is usually in the big air hose, just after air cleaner going to throttle body. this sensor senses if the incoming air is cold or warm to set engine peramiters for best idle and driving under all conditions. it works in conjunction with the mass air flow sensor and sends this info to pcm.

How do you repair an automatic seat belt that is not working on a Ford Escort LX?

I am having the same problem on both driver and passenger side passive (shoulder) belts. Was told to check the fuse, if not that, the motor needs to be replaced. Now, where is the motor located? I swear they hide stuff to irritate me on this car!

Fuse, Cables, Connectors, Motor, Computer :-)

: There are many possibilities, which can cause this. : The first answer is what to do first! If it's won't go: : No1.: Remove door panel on that side which seat belt isn't works. Check the long cable, which goes from A pillar to the door lock. Check the door lock switch. (I had a cuted cable here, and a broken door lock switch) : No2.: Remove the "A" pillar inner moulding, and check the stop switch, connector, and the cables. : No3.: Remove the "B" pillar inner moulding. Check the cables, the connectors, the electric motor, and the stop switch. : No4.: Remove the panel under the steering wheel. In the middle You'll find the electric part, which is a "computer" It's the "brain" of the passive belts. Try to change it, or check the cables, and the connectors. : You can change the right side parts to the left, so you can find the wrong parts. But it's a hard DIY work. It works on early LX-s, pinys, Station Wagons, etc... (1988-1990) I wish it works on later too. (sorry for my english)
