I came here to post about a similar issue, only I am not as tech savvy. I have had no issues with my 2001 LC since I got it about 5 years ago. Yesterday when I started her up, all I got was heat, no cold from the auto or max A/C. I wondering if the temp sensor in the car was working. So I...

Service Engine Light went on the other day. I used my scanner and the code was PO 442. Evaporative leak - small leak. I had just filled up with gas the previous day, so I removed, tightened up the gas cap and use the scanner to erase the code. Prayers excluded, I think it will eventually go...

Yes the car was running. I came home Saturday, before the big freeze, with about 1/8 of a tank. I planned on getting out later to fill it, but never did. I started in on the really cold Monday, it started, a little sluggish churn, but it started. I ran it for a short time and then stopped...

I had seen where someone cranks the ignition, you can listen for the fuel pump by the gas cap in the back. I have been by myself, so have not tried that, but am going to try that later today. The red antitheft light was blinking even when the battery was low the other day. I did not think to...

We had about -15 below here in Chicago last week. I went out to start it on that day and it was sluggish, but started without issue. I let it run a few minutes. The next day, nothing. The battery was shot and would not even start with a jump. Today, I installed the new battery and she...

We have freezing weather here in Chicago. While my doors have froze shut on occasion, I have never had issue with the door locks. Today, the rear door locks will not go up, the fronts are fine. Ran my errands for about 30 minutes and the rear windows eventually went down, but the locks are...

Will study up on doing that. Is it an inexpensive fix and something I could do myself? Maybe just easier to change than figure out how to test it.

I tried a search first and could not find anything, so I hope someone can help or point me in the correct direction. I have a 2001 Lincoln Continental, about 110K. I got the car with about 80K and have had it for 3 years. I have never, ever had any issues with the heating or cooling system...

Thanks for the advice. I just pushed together all the harnesses under the seat, even though most seemed ok. I also read overstuffing the glove box may be at fault due to a harness in the box. I gave that one an extra push too. Well...a 45 minute trip to and from work and no light. Fingers...

Hi, Problem is I am not sure which harness deals with the air bag. There seem to be at least 3-4 underneath there. I also read there may be some sort of code. Mine blinks 3, then 3 then stops for about 5-6 seconds. So I guess the code it 33.

Yesterday my Air Bag light went on after I had been driving awhile. Stopped the car, did my errands and it did not go back on the rest of the way home or to work today. On the way home it came on after about 10 minutes of driving and stayed on for the rest of the drive. I did some research...

A few days ago, while driving on the highway, I happened to notice a very small wisp of smoke coming from behind the steering wheel on the left side. I have not seen it before or since. I did a few other searches before landing back here. All seem to point to the turn signal switch and...

Hi...saw your post from like 4 years ago. I just had the same thing happen yesterday. A small wisp of smoke from right behind the steering wheel on the left side. Did you ever solve you issue. If so, what was it? Thanks...Mike

I am not sure if people will comment on price quotes, but I could not think of a better place to ask. I brought my 2001 Lincoln Continental to a local repair shop. It is a chain I will leave nameless for now............ok Firestone. The car has about 90K in miles, I bought it at 68K 2 years...

Turned out to be a bad wire behind the driver's side wheel well. No sure which one. But fixed the issue.

Hi, Several forum members have been extremely helpful in helping me work on a Lincoln Continental P1633 Code/Check Engine Light problem. Today, I may have found the reason, but can not be sure. Is it possible for the PCM Power Relay or Diode in the engine compartment black box to to bad or go...

Ok....this if freaking weird! I went out yesterday and disconnected the battery for over 2 hours. I cleaned off all the connections on the starter and battery again. Reconnected after the 2 hours ...10 seconds after starting the check engine light went on. Ok this is where it gets...

Thanks for the post bradyelich. I already checked the fuses they were fine. I replaced them anyway: on the panel inside the car I replaced, fuse 2 10A & 11 10A. They were the ones listed in the Owners Manual to be related to the PCM. I do not know if this is the same as the KAPWR you...

Thanks Randy... I just got a new Voltmeter, but must admit I have only limited knowledge on how to use it. Do I simply touch the positive to the positive battery terminal and the negative battery terminal and have someone start the car? And is the pcm located under the wiper directly in front...

Hi Randy. I found the red cap. I unscrewed the nut and took off the red cable and cleaned it really well. There were two other smaller wires which were difficult to get at and I did not touch them at this point. I reconnected everything. I started the car and after about 10 seconds, the...
