    ABS, AdvanceTrac, Traction Control, Power Parking Brake

    Noise tuned out to be a bad alternator. Now I just have the traction control light displaying in the dash. And sometimes get the message on the dash of "check the power brake" Anyone have a simple check list for the traction control and power brake? Thanks,

    ABS, AdvanceTrac, Traction Control, Power Parking Brake

    I have lights coming on and off on all four of the above; however, have been reading the threads and believe I can fix them fairly quickly. HOWEVER, I have a whining or squealing noise coming from under the hood. The noise started about the same time as the brake and tracking systems problems...

    Ohms vs. Volts

    Some authorities say to use ohms to test the CHT Sensor, other authorities say use volts. Which is best and/or what do you suggest. Where would you tie into the system to get your readings? I am tying into the system with my ohm meter with parallel connections with the two wires leaving the CHT...

    Where does the ECT Sensor wire go?

    Thanks for the quick information. Having the pin numbers will be of help to me. By the way, upon you suggestions, I have successfully taken the manifold off and I am replacing the CHT sensor and its connector wire. Never done this extensive of work on a car before. As you said, I took me about...

    CHT Sensor Test

    G-RELL. The problem is not the sensor's cost and identification, it is the time and labor for me to remove the manifold to get to the CHT sensor. Everyone I have talked to tells me that it will take me three to four hours of my time and about $100.00+ in parts. Before, I go through the above...

    CHT Sensor Test

    Does anyone have a good electrical test for the Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor on a LS 2000? Volts and/or Ohms. Where would you suggest I hook up my ohm meter for testing? Do you have good "benchmark" figures you can provide me as to what I should be reading on my ohm meter?

    Won't Start

    Waited until this morning.... Got in my car and did exactly what you told me to do. On the FIRST try, the old 2000 LS turned over and is running great. GREAT, OUTSTANDING advise. Like you, I sure would like to know the philosophy behind how this service fix works. Thanks, Bill

    Compressor Terminal?

    I am converting from a GEN 1 hydraulic fan to a new electric fan in my 2000 LS. About 95% finished. The manufacturer recommends that I connect the “A/C Compressor Positive Signal” wire from their controller directly to the A/C compressor sensor on the LS. I am assuming that this is too pickup a...

    When is the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor (12A648), the one that is fitted into the oil filter bracket, used and on what applications? Lincoln 2000LS, 3.9L. Mine doesn’t seam to have a pickup lead attached. And I don’t remember ever seeing it.
