My coil plug 2 is tilted on the coil pack. I've tried to get the lock tabs on both sides but they only seem to allow one or the other side to clip into place so it has left them sitting at a tilt?

Remove the plug completely and check the internal pin and socket contacts. Spray the outside of the male socket with WD40 and offer the two connectors squarely together until it locks. ..

2009 Ford Taurus SEL Forced idle code after replacing throttle body (NEW), MAF (NEW) and TPP (NEW). I can't get the codes to clear.

Throttle Body Relearn: After replacing the throttle body, it's crucial to perform a relearn procedure to ensure proper communication between the new components and the car's computer. Here are some methods to reset the throttle position sensor (TPS): OBD2 Scanner: Use an OBD2 scanner compatible with your car model. Look for the throttle sensor reset feature in the scanner. Follow the scanner's instructions to reset and calibrate the TPS. Accelerator Pedal Method: Turn the ignition to the ON position (without starting the engine). Push the accelerator pedal down fully for about 20 seconds. Release the pedal slowly and turn off the car. Start the engine normally and check if the situation improves. Fuse Removal: Locate the fuse box (details in the owner's manual). Remove the fuse related to the throttle body (leave it out for about 10 minutes). Reinsert the fuse. The throttle body sensor should reset. Driving the Vehicle: Drive the car on the highway at speeds over 40 mph. Accelerate and decelerate slightly. Repeat this process to allow the sensor to reset. Additionally, there's a helpful YouTube video that specifically describes the relearn procedures after replacing the throttle body and the throttle position sensor (TPS) . Check for Other Issues: Ensure that the ignition coils, spark plugs, and front oxygen sensors are in good condition. https://youtu.be/ZNxXM75zJOw You Tube

Fixing a freeze plug behind the flex plate on a v6 for a 1997 Ford Taurus

If one needs replacing, so will all the others. Easiest way is to separate the engine from the transmission and hoist the engine out of the car . That way you'll have access to all the freeze plugs

I need the diagram of the fuse box for a Taurus-97

Hi,

Can you please be more specific...

Do you require a simple diagram of the fusebox (fuse layout), or are you actually asking for a "wiring" colour code diagram for the fusebox?

1996 Ford Taurus died driving on the highway and now it won't turn over.

Won't turn over? You turn the key and nothing happens, the engine doesn't crank? Any click from the starter? Or The starter motor turns the engine over but is doesn't start / fire. The best way to diagnose is to find a local auto electrician. A professional grade scan tool computer can diagnose all the electrical computer systems, modules and sensors. https://www.google.com/search?q=auto+electrician+near+me ..
