Kinock when i make a turn
I believe the Taurus is front wheel drive. If so, the CV or constant velocity joints are going or gone bad. These are the drive shafts if you will between the the transmission and the front wheels.
Horn wont work
There should be a Horn Relay in one of the power boxes. If the fuse is intact, the Relay may be bad.
Torque convertor is stuck what can i do
What problem--in detail
I guess your getting a TCC Solenoid code
No fix for a torque converter
The solenoid will be hard to get at in the side cover
with the trans in the sub frame
That is not a job for you at home & no experience
The solenoid could be bad,the trans pump sticking & other
issues
May be time to pull the transaxle & rebuild it
The taurus trans hasn't lasted long in it's 30 some year history
The trunk hole
shoot white lithiumspray grease or LPS 2 into lock that should loosen
Brake fluid
DOT 4 has a higher boiling point than DOT 3 with all other properties being relatively the same. It shouldn't hurt anything, but as always I would recommend using exactly what the manufacturer calls for.
Light on dash reads "check
nancycmixon, When you see this "check your charging system" you need to have the alternator checked. This is the main component for the charging system. A normal alternator will put out 13.6 to 14.6 volts. A few tenths of a volt either way won't mean too much but if they are extremely over or under these values means you have a bad alternator. I believe that your vehicle has a voltage meter in the dashboard and it will usually read in the thirteen to fourteen volts range. As far as your battery losing its charge overnight means that you have another problem and that is you have what is called a parasitic drain. There are a certain amount of parasitic drains already in the car with the radio memory and maybe a clock that constantly displays the time and the antitheft system in the car. These will not drain your battery overnight. You have something else draining your battery that is your problem. Have the alternator checked and mention the battery drain. There is test for this but it is too lengthy to post here. Sorry about that. Good luck with this.

For spray to be on surrounding parts and burning off I would think that a pressure hose has split probably near the fitting. If it is a return hose which is low pressure then the filter must be blocked creating pressure.. Check that the filter is not inside the reservoir under the cap.. Try running the engine and have some one see if the fluid is coming out when the wheels are moved from lock to lock

Sorry this happened to you. Your best repair would be to find the parts in a Salvage yard. By doing this, all of the connections would be plug-in and in the proper sequence. You would have the expense of the repair wire sections anyway and if you piece-meal all the damaged wires together you could have constant connection problems. Plus if any of the wires are melted in unseen areas, there could be more problems.There is a good Salvage yard site called Car-parts.com. It is Nationwide and gives you prices, photos, and all contact information for the parts. Some yards will offer warrantees. They ship to your house.You may find places in driving distance from your home.The Autozone website has Help sections at the bottom of the page. They need to be navigated between free and paid info. They have diagrams for the wiring. You will need to register on the site for free and you can look up 12 vehicles.Also check your fuses as the wires may have crossed and broke a fuse.

You can't know anything until you have the system completely evacuated and recharged with the exact weighed charge of refrigeration. Forget those death kits you buy in the stores. This needs to be done with professional equipment. AC repair is really not a DIY job. It required very extensive knowledge of refrigeration to recognize issues.
