Merc tech fixed securty prob get back to find other problem
Your security system is routed through your cars ECM or computer.. this enables it to disable the car when needed. Your backup sensor.. is actually a sonar system that uses sound waves generated from back bumper and then received back to determine distance from solid objects. The reverse sensor does not route through the engine computer (ECM) and therefore would not cause an engine code which is all that dealer or anyone elses computer systems look for when its hooked up. More than likely when they disconnected the battery in the repair of your security system the system failed or needs to be reinitialized. Also sometimes, on Chevrolets (and some Fords) the bumper itself has both the reverse detection system and the air bag deployment sensor (that is tied into security system etc) and they disconnect both during a security repair. They may have not reconnected the wiring properly. A dealer with a proper service departmetn should know how to explain it to you and also be willing to examine to insure they didnt leave something disconnected during the secuirty work. My suggestion is take your repair receipts and try another, non-affiliated FORD dealer. Ask for a service manager and show them the repair and the issues now having. Ask if they can examine the work to make sure that there is no obvious reason for the failure, such as broken wiring, etc. If you dont have another FORD dealer in your area you can contact FORD directly via

I have check tire coming on information and lights
This means you have a low tire you need to air them up to at least 28 PSI if it is the model equipped with air compressor the air compressor may be malfunctioning, try going to any tire shop and ask them to air your tires up, most will do it for free. If the computer has to be reset they may charge you $15.00 to do it.
I have a blinking exclamation mark in the dash
is it your engine service light thats blinking?
if it is you can reset it on some cars by disconnecting your battery and pumping on your brakes about 10 or more times this should clear up some trouble codes the light should go out if not you should have a mechanic check it out.hope that helped
Idles rough
You may or may not need a scan tool to find the answer. If the engine light is on, you will. At least to look at stored codes. You can start by looking at the gas cap. Make sure it is in good shape and is secure. Then you can look at broken vacuum lines. I need as much info as you have available. For example, most resent repairs (in the last yr), how many miles on the van, is the engine light on an if so what the codes are (I don't need the definition, just what the code/s are). And if the problem is intermittent. Sometimes this problem can be caused by lack of maintenance, clogged filters, water in the gas tank (owner letting tank run down to empty frequently).
The front fan has quite working, there is nothing
Have you all check the blower resistor, check to see if you have power going to it then if you have power going to blower motor, if no power going to motor and have power going to it replace Napa part # br334. hope this was very helpful.
Tune up
No tune up required until 100,000 miles. If you are at that mileage change the spark plugs. Change the fuel and air filters. Inpect the brakes, exhaust system and suspension. Change the brake fluid and transmission fluid. Change the engine coolant.
Replace driver side electric window motor
You'll need to remove screws that are by the door handle,
arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the
panel as there will also be retaining clips attached and you don't want
to break them. You'll need to lift the door panel upwards in order to
get it off the window ledge. If needed, you can pull back the weather
seal
(can't reuse it, but it's not that important) and you will be able to
access everything inside the door
