Make sure that the odometer is set to miles and not kilometers. Hold the button down (while in the regular odometer setting, not the "trip odometer" setting) until it changes to miles. The temperature display will automatically change to fahrenheit. We just figured this out today.

Adjust the seat so it's folded and upright. Near where the seat is attached to the floor is a "square shaped" metal bar (attack from the bak of the seat). Pull that bar to release the floor clamp. Note I had to lean the chair to about 45 degrees to get it to work. It took a fair amount of pulling and cursing. Now that it's out, I'm going to spray the clamp with a little WD40. Maybe next time it'll work more smoothly.

Possible you have a faulty fuel injector. If no fuel is sprayed into the cylinder, it will show a misfire.

2006 freestar will not go into any gear. all gears give the apperance of neutral except park.

check linkage appears good, when van is in gear it will drift like in neutral, van revs up just will not go into gear, transmission fluid is good. no previous problem just happen during normal driving conditions

Yes, it is exactly TORQUE CONVERTER. Ford is re-calling over 400,000
Freestars accross North America for Torque Converter replacement. The new usnits became available in spring of 2012.
Splines on the original torque converter that make contact with input shaft of the transmission, weren't properly hardened and wear out pre-maturely. This causes transmission on act as if in neutral in every gear, except PARK due to lock engaging.
Free replacement at any Ford dealer. Put yourself on waiting list, if your trans totaly fails, then it will be looked right of way.

if you have aux button there is a plug wire that mite be in the dash of the car, you could go to the radio manufacture website see if you can find the users manual, or installation guide, operational manual, the aux mite be a wifi option on other device of similar radio, that radio may have many versions and the version you got does not have that option with the cheaper version of radio that was installed when the car was made.
go to manufactures website, service, make, model,
it may need drivers to run the aux.
