Fixed the catalytic converter and sensors still not good only going 15 ?

your cat is definately plugged and can get very dangerous, seriously have him cut the cat to release the pressure, if it ios only going 15 its seriously dangerous only a trained professional should cut the cat if your engine leaks oil or fuel and they cut the cat wrond oil or fuel could drip down on the hit cat and i hate to say but could catch a fire, heres a tip to see if the person fixed it, drive the vehicle for 15 minutes then put it in park and look underneath your car is it glowing orange, theres your sign, your cat is not fixed if still doing this, cats can be taken out and you can modify your exhaust also change the sensor before the cat, remove the one after the cat bam fixed but please do not continue to drive this vehicle, take care

2001 GT convertible. Why does theft light stay on?

Try the simple stuff first. Is the roof fully locking into place when up and down? Sometimes a faulty or dirty roof switch can trigger the theft light as the system thinks the roof isn't locked.

Mustang Base P0456 Code.

P0446 Evaporative Emission Control System Vent Control Circuit Malfunction. This is s CIRCUIT malfunction, so test for power, ground and then check the resistance on the solenoid coil. If you see power and ground in the connector, it's usually a bad vent valve. http://ricksfreeautorepairadvice.com/p0456-p0455-p0457-ford

My 2005 mustang squeals on start-up and when the a/c is on. Serpentine belt was recently replaced. Any ideas of what could be happening?

Make sure belt is tight and no oil or grease on pulleys. If that fails check each pulley to make sure it is turning freely especially the AC.

How to fill and blead a mustang convertible top system

It doesn't take too much to bleed the system, but can be messy. Just fill the reservoir and then break the highest fitting loose while operating the motor. It will push all of the air out, but when it starts to pump fluid it will go everywhere. Wrap the fitting with a towel to catch the fluid.

Where is the turn signal flasher located on a 2005 mustang gt?

Does not use a flasher , controlled by SJB - smart junction box , module - computer etc... Turn Signal and Hazard Lamps All turn signal outputs are controlled by the SJB. The multifunction switch and the hazard switch are hard-wired to the SJB. When the multifunction switch is in the left or right turn position, or the hazard switch is engaged, the SJB processes this information and outputs the appropriate command to the turn signal and hazard lamps. All turn signal lamps provide a lamp outage indication. Rather then trying to guess your way to a repair , Take it to a qualified repair shop. Could have DTC'S - diagnostic trouble code's stored that point in the correct diagnostic path . Inspection and Verification
