My horn WILL NOT work

Where are you connecting the tester to? If you are connecting one lead to the negative terminal on the battery and the other to the horn wire and it lights up try connecting a wire from the horn housing (bare metal) to the negative battery terminal and attach the horn wire to the horn and try it. if that works the ground path from the battery to the horn mounting place is broken somewhere. you may have to run a negative wire to the horn mounting place to make it work properly. Hope this helps. Bob

How do you know if your coil is bad

Depending on the level of failure in the coil, since they dont always just completely fail, there are a few different things that can happen. You could have a miss in your engine that causes it to be jerky, a reduction in power or in a complete failure the engine will not run due to the fact you will have no spark. If you remove your coil it can be tested using the specs for your particular vehicle. I believe most auto parts stores will test them for you. Hope this helps. Good luck.

How do you replace the blend door actuator in a 1997 Mercury Cougar?

  1. Locate the blend door actuator. The actuator is located behind the dashboard, usually on the passenger side. It is a small, rectangular motor with a wiring harness and a linkage arm.
  2. Disconnect the battery. Before beginning any work on the electrical system, disconnect the battery to avoid any electrical shorts or other accidents.
  3. Remove the dashboard panel. In order to access the blend door actuator, the dashboard panel may need to be removed. Consult the vehicle's repair manual for specific instructions on how to remove the panel.
  4. Remove the old blend door actuator. Disconnect the wiring harness and the linkage arm from the old blend door actuator. Remove any mounting screws or bolts that secure the actuator to the dashboard.
  5. Install the new blend door actuator. Install the new blend door actuator in the same location as the old actuator. Secure the actuator with any mounting screws or bolts. Connect the wiring harness and the linkage arm to the new actuator.

I have a 97 cougar i need to know how to change the whole ignition in it because I don't have the keys they were lost in move how do I do it?

Easier to replace the whole steering column from a junkyard than it is to remove an ignition without a key. Locksmith is cheaper and faster. Key can be made using vin number, your ID and registration at the FORD dealership. I have had a mobile locksmith that usually goes to car auctions make one super fast. There is a set of "masters" they can copy your key from.

If you're finding it difficult to service/repair your car, get one of those online manuals. You'll not have to wait for others to answer, or rely on mechanics and all. Plus I know a website that has very good manuals online, without expiry i.e. for lifetime. www.reliable-store.com

P1443 code problem. How do

P1446 - EVAP Canister Vent Control Valve Close
EVAP canister vent control valve remains closed under specified driving conditions.

This solenoid valve responds to signals from the ECM. When the ECM sends an ON signal, the coil in the solenoid valve is energized. A plunger will then move to seal the canister vent. The ability to seal the vent is necessary for the on board diagnosis of other evaporative emission control system components.

This solenoid valve is used only for diagnosis, and usually remains opened. When the vent is closed, under normal purge conditions, the evaporative emission control system is depressurized and allows EVAP Control System (Small Leak) diagnosis.

The EVAP canister vent control valve is located on the EVAP canister and is used to seal the canister vent.

Symptoms:
- Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)

About the possible causes that your must solved:
- EVAP control system pressure sensor and the circuit
- Blocked rubber tube to EVAP canister vent control valve
- EVAP canister vent control valve
- Water separator
- EVAP canister is saturated with water


Hope this helps.
