Hi Everyone,
I'm having a problem with my 2000 lincoln ls that's been very hard to diagnose. About 5 months ago I was driving and the dash light started coming on, check traction control, check engine light, radio turned off, car started sputtering... the battery was dead... got a new battery. About 2 months ago same thing started happening, I parked the car, turned it off and tried turning it on again, completely dead. I waited a few hours and then tried starting again. It worked and it didn't fail again. So a few days ago, same thing, battery dies, I wait a couple of hours it cranks, then the battery dies again, no lights, can't even put the windows up. Take it to the shop, they jump start it, it starts to fail and dies. They go get their diagnostic equipment... waited a couple of hours, cranked her up and it started, hasn't failed in two days. Any one have any ideas? Thanks for any help you can give me.
