My two back windows will not go down from either front nor back button I checked the window controls fuse and it seems to be ok

There is a separate Child safety switch on the driver door that causes this to happen to keep children from opening their windows, etc. Perhaps this switch is stuck or faulty wires.

Signs blown head gasket

Hi there:Pay attention. here is the most common symptoms a Blown Head Gasket are:- Your car is overheating. You know it's not the Fan or Thermostat.- White Smoke is coming out of the tail-pipe and it smells like Anti-Freeze being cooked.- The car won't start: * You have already verified it's not an Ignition System problem because you have Spark coming out at all of the Spark Plug Wires. * You know it's not a Lack of Fuel, because you have verified that the Fuel Pump is delivering Fuel to the Fuel Injectors.- The Engine Oil is thick and tan to off-white color.Hope this helps.

1961 Lincoln continental convertible

Sounds like the travel has stopped before it should and that is stopping the lock working. Check there is nothing blocking the free movement of the roof mechanism.

Just had oil changed 2002 continental have vibration and low roar sound

OK, 1st of all the oil change has nothing to do with vibrations or low roar noise. So not to worry about that. However I suspect that you have an exhaust system issue. Check to see if there is a leak. Also check to see if the car lift did any damage to you exhaust system when oil changed. This might well be the case...damaged when on lift to change oil... Hope this helps

Transmission won't shift into gear only park works no prior problems just all of a sudden stop Lincoln Continental 2001

I would say it has something to do with this ! Shift Interlock System An ignition/shifter interlock mechanism is installed to prevent shifting the transaxle out of the PARK position unless the ignition switch is rotated to RUN and the brake pedal is applied. The floor shift interlock system consists of:
  • an actuator assembly integral to the ignition/shifter interlock cable assembly.
  • a bracket retaining the actuator.
  • the necessary wiring.
The solenoid is energized when the ignition switch is turned to the RUN position, locking the transaxle range selector lever in the PARK position. When the brake pedal is applied and the stoplight switch (13480) is activated, the ignition/shifter interlock actuator is deactivated and the transaxle range selector lever can be moved out of the PARK position.

1998 Lincoln continental horn keeps going off unexpectedly

Nothing wrong with the car. It is getting a signal that mimics your remote's "panic" signal. Someone in your area may have an alarm with a remote controlled snooze. If the car was at fault the times would be random.

98 continential the abs pump runs when on dry pavement and the brake pedal surges like a warped rotor but they are new and the taction control also makes noise on dry pavment. if i pull the fuse all n

You must check your bushings on the rear shocks/struts on top and on the bottom any one if severely worn will cause the anti lock brake module to run and the traction control because it is sensing a slight movement both are controlled by the abs module for the system also the stabilizer links can cause a weight shift in the wheels letting a sensor activate you also have rear spindle bushings and wheel hubs that have sensor rings on the hubs if the spindle bushings are worn this allows it to twist and uneven traction is the result in the front you have strut rod bushings on each side that connect to the control arms again if worn it's allowing movement triggering the traction /abs sensors and also a worn cv axle will slip slightly activating the system start with the cheapest bushings and links and strut arm and spindle bushings and shock/strut bushings and mounts any movement will activate the system ok please post back with progress you made write down everything you've done so far and I will get back to you also tire treads that are different will cause uneven traction I'm a taxi mechanic in nyc.with 50 years experience in all phases of the automobiles mechanics and I will get you to the problem cause obviously I'm not there so I need you to communicate with me precisely what you have done so far because I can't check the vehicle myself good luck stephen

Have a 1998 lincoln continental that has factory

if its an aftermarket alarm, which im sure it is, find the brain to the aftermarket alarm and unhook it. trace the brain back from the car alarm siren hardware. it shoud b mounted somewhere under the hood. theres not a lot of available space in the engine compartment. so you should easily find the siren hardware. trace the wiring back to the brain and disconnect it. it cant be factory alarm. factory alarm only goes off when u dont use keyless remote or key to unlock a locked door or trunk. factory alarm blows horn and blinks parking lights
