Usually a sign the tumblers in the lock cylinder have worn out or jammed.You may have to get the lock cylinder drilled out and replaced.

Hopefully, a transmission shop is only a few shut downs away. You need it checked for a mechanical problem or an electrical problem. An electrical fix is a lot cheaper than a rebuilt transmission, hundreds less., in fact.

You can replace it but hope you did not lose an oil pump and hope it is the sending unit. Youtube will show you how to replace.

Sounds like you need a new thermostat which only cost a couple of bucks at any auto store

What is now,any lights,any codes,sound car quit and came back.could be crankshaft sensor.

Do you mean the blower motor ?Have you checked the fuse to see if it has power ?

Contact's in wiper switch worn or corroded! Replacement needed is it a ford? Or Toyota? :)

unscrew the clamps on each end or if they are snap clamps use a vise grip to loosen clamp and slide the hose off and replace. tighten clamps or snap clams in place. refill the rad and your done

First thing to check tyre`s,tyre pressure`s and wheel balance,failing that check front and rear suspension bushes......

This is often a switch located on the brake pedal lever. The car requires you to press the Brake pedal before shiftting out of Park. You lose the signal when a foot hits or breaks this part. Look under the dash for the part and fix it.

997 Taurus with bad cam sensor, first you need to make sure the synchronier is good this is located next to throttle body and is where the cam sensor bolts to, these are known for making noise and going bad, if yours has not been making noise then okay just replace the sensor but first check the wiring and connector for damage. there are two screws that hold it on the synchronier remove them and remove connector and pull sensor off and then install new one.Here is a picture of the cam sensor and the synchronier, as you will see the sensor sits on the top of it and it then goes into engine block at the area next to throttle body.

Dirty Valve Body in transaxle or internal wearNo easy fix thereThe life of a taurus trans is about 65,000 avg from thefirst one built thru whenever,late 90'sYou can research thatI had a trans shop & caravans & taurus were 70% of the workJust a lot of them out there I guess & when you don't changethe fluid everyone breaks down,that is 90% of any trans shopbusiness

Air Temperature Control Blend Door Failure No Heat or no AC (dependes on where door sticks)

In all modern cars there is a tiny DC electric motor driven gear drive that moves a plastic door that blends heated and cooled air from the AC and the heater core, this is called (interestedly enough) the air temperature control blend door actuator. The motor that moves this door fails because the door starts sticking from warping, most common complaint is no heat but it can be no AC as well. To replace these parts (blend door and blend door actuator) you must remove the entire dash from the car. Always have this problem confirmed by a dealer or qualified repair shop as it is a very expensive repair.

Other causes of no heat in the cabin are engine thermostats that are stuck open (engine runs cold) or air bubbles in the cooling system.

Just do a search on yahoo or your fav search engine.

In plain site next to the exhaust converter

Careful visual examCould have it smoke testedwith evap smoke machineYour fuel trim may be offYou need professional test equip for both those checks

check fluid levels add if low.. change fluid and filter in transmission if contaminated..check detent cable see if its stuck on the throttle linkage
