on the dashboard of my 96 mercury sable, the I.P Brake light is staying on, what does this mean? why is this on?
Hi,
Offhand, the brake light warning on most dashboards would indicate that the hand/emergency brake is engaged. If even when the hand/emergency brake is disengaged or is in normal position and the light is still lit, it could indicate that:
Just a start, do postback how things turned up or should you need additional information. Good luck and Thank you for using FixYa.

i have a 2001 mercury sable and the anti theft is on and I can't start my car. will disconnecting the battery reset it?
Yes, keep it disconnected for at least 10 minutes. Also make sure your Battery is good. Sometimes the Anti-theft is sensitive to Battery voltage and will not connect the internal parts to allow a start.
If you have a Keypad, enter the Security Code on the Keypad and turn the Ignition Key within 5 to 10 seconds to start it.

I have a 2001 Mercury Sable that was recently in a wreck. Now the repairs have been done and it is flashing the air bag code 4 7. I had it scanned, which came up with a DTC of B1881 - Seatbelt Passenger Pretensioner Open Circuit.
I have removed the electrical plugs from under both seats, cleaned them and replaced them. I have also had the code cleared, but it returned immediately.
Any ideas of what I can do to fix this issue?
there is probably a broken wire somewhere in the belt or the control panel. You would have to actually trace all the wiring or test all wiring with ohmeter. You should just pull the dash and take out the bulb, or elese take out all fuses for the system

I have got a P0171 & P0174 engine codes on my 2001 mercury sable. What do I do to fix it.
P0171 System Too Lean Bank 1
P0172 System Too Rich Bank 1
P0173 Fuel Trim Bank 2
P0174 System Too Lean Bank 2
OK, that's a partial list of codes, the fuel delivery is controlled by the oxygen sensors, so it's possible that something in that area could be causing your problem.
However, it could also be clogged fuel injectors that can't deliver enough fuel to the cylinders compared to the air that is pulled into the engine.
Try some fuel injector cleaner for that poured into the gas tank.
How does it run?
Does it miss at all?

Our antitheft alarm on our 2001 mercury sable keeps going off on its own; I think there is something that sets those alarms off in our neighborhood because our's is not the only one going off every night. Any idea how I disconnect that alarm?
Get a new car! JK - my 2002 Sable does the same thing. It can be 5 times a day then not for a month, or 2-3 times a day for a week straight. It happens in different locations and different weather and different times of the day. To my knowledge has never done it in my garage at home.
I have not called a dealer. Has anybody ever found the real problem? Could it be in the remote itself? I tried leaving it unlocked at work, but yesterday it went off just as I was reaching toward the door handle.
