1993 Lincoln Town Car Questions & Answers
Is there a specific type of grease gun ad grease I
There is really no special grease gun to get. Any type of grease gun will work. I personally use a high temp. grease at the shop I work at. When greasing anything never over grease a joint , it causes a mess and will cause premature failure. All that is needed is three pumps of the grease gun.
Brake light wont light up when brake pedal is pressed
Sounds like a brake lamp switch or fuse.
Check all fuses electrically, with a test probe you can purchase from any auto parts store. Go through each fuse with the probe touching the end or tip of the fuse after clipping the lead on the probe to a good ground. If the probe lights up at both ends of the fuse, the fuse is sound, if it only lights up at one end then replace that fuse and if the probe does not light up at all, that fuse is not active so turn on the ignition but dont start the motor.
The brake lamp switch is attached to the brake pedal. It may have a single wire or several. All the switch does is connect the brake lamp circuit to an active supply rail so, The switch should have one active wire and the other wire should become active when the pedal is pressed. If it does not, replace the switch. If it does, then you may have two blown bulbs in the rear lamps or a damaged wiring harness to the rear lamps and you should seek the advice of a qualified person. Start with the fuses, then the switch, then the bulbs..and remember, you may have more then one fuse panel in the vehicle so check under the hood too..
93 Lincoln Town Car was stolen, this left behind...any idea of what/how????
This a "valet Key" I thought Lincoln had stopped using the things. It's a plastic key attached to a plastic card. When you want to let a valet park your key, you supposedly punch out the plastic key and it's supposed to be good for one (1) parking assignment; there after the key degrades with use and becomes worthless. The reason Ford stopped issuing them is evidenced by the loss of your car.
Shifter linkage broke in upper part
easier to junk car and buy a nice diesel manual ,think you will need another gearbox here and all the work involved in changing it on a 93 car?? ,thats worth less than 500euros
1993 lincoln towncar sunroof switch
I know this is an old blog but some people may still find it helpful. There are 4 wires in the roof window switch hooked up to 2 smaller harnesses that have 2 wires each.
Remove the switch and use only the metal contacts in the harnesses. One should use a light tester to confirm which one is the ground and live. this is how it turned out for my car.
One harness has a light blue wire with a black stripe, and a black wire. the blue one is live, the black one is ground.
The other harness has a red wire and a darker blue wire (silly ford) these are the motor connect and return wires.
You must hook up thhooked to (example, if the live wire was connected to blue motor wire and the ground wire was connected to red motor wire and it opened it, that would mean you would want to put the live wire to the red motor wire and the ground wire to the blue motor wire)
When doing these wire connections, it is advised that you have the ignition turned off. Once you make all the connections properly, you can turn on the ignition and if done correctly, the roof window will move. Once it is closed, remove the wires frome the harnesses and LEAVE THE ROOF WINDOW ALONE UNTIL YOU HAVE A NEW SWITCH.
e power (Live, light blue) wire to a motor wire. You must then run another wire from the other motor wire. To complete this circuit there is only one place that this last wire can go and it is to the ground. once this is connected the roof should either open more or close.
To reverse the operation of the roof, simply reverse the position of the live and ground wires in respect to which motor wires they are

I've never heard of "burping" the coolant system, nor have I ever owned a Lincoln, but based on your description of the problem alone, I would first drain the system, flush it with a good radiator flush (ask the guys at a reputable auto parts store) and refill it - checking all hoses first, of course. While you're at it you might want to check out the water pump and thermostat. The other thing is that the sound you describe as water rush may not be that at all - although i have no suggestions as to what it is. Good luck. . .

Can I use a 1996 RF window on an 1883?
Doubtful. They didn't make them back then. But they probably won't fit and 1993 or a 1093 either. The manufacturers change the body style too frequently to be able to be confident. One easy way to find out is to call a local salvage yard (junkyard). They are extremely knowledgeable about interchangeability of parts across model years.
