Disconnect power lead and plug remove tensioner on belt and remove belt and bolts,check idler pulleys for worn bearings replace if noisy.

Explain the problem Any OBD Codes you may have What exactly & where is this sensor ? I have a 2004 L/S-- the only sensor I can think your asking about, would be a wheel speed sensor Trac Control-- was an option, you could order & it is embedded into the abs system

Well, take it back to them as soon as possible. In the mean time check the light switch at the interior light which usually has three settings - "off" at all times - "on" when any door opens - "on" at all times. Try the different switch positions by getting in the car with all doors closed. One setting should switch the light on with the doors initially closed and will remain on even if the doors are then opened or closed. Second setting will be light off with doors are closed but light on when a any door is opened. Third will remain switched off even if any door is opened or closed. If the light can be switched off at one setting but remains on at the two other settings there is a malfunctioning micro switch at one doors. Look for the micro in each of the door frames (not door) and press each it a few times with your finger - if it is stuck it may come loose and work again. Try the switch's settings again. If it doesn't solve the problem either one of the door micros or the light switch may be defective and need to be replaced. Unfortunately this can only be determined by using a multimeter and should be done by a auto electrician or knowledgeable person.

Scan it to see which sensor is bad. it can only be 3 things bad sensor (assumes door not bent in crash) bad wires to sensor or the alarm controller is messed up. we check the voltage at the sensor, if wrong correct that. if good to the alarm we replace, it, just say a new 2014 Toyota do this and the controller was bad. in warranty .

Abnormal Change in Output Voltage of Left Rear Speed Sensor Hope this helps Link for Codes here: (Excel Spreadsheet) Be sure to disable macros. http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=14&ved=0CDsQFjADOAo&url=http%3A%2F%2Fvx800.dk%2Fprivat%2FVAG-SCANNER%2FOBDfaultcodes.xls&ei=GAaBU4KoGYqRqgbE_oLAAw&usg=AFQjCNH65Let_cMv7Zcn0JfV3x6KaEMD-Q&bvm=bv.67720277,d.b2k&cad=rja

check at auto zone

Pull the trunk liner out a little around the tail light assembly. You should see 3 or 4 bolts. Remove the nuts from the bolts and pull the entire assembly out

Is it throwing a DTC/OBD code, causing the Check engine light to come on or does the thermostat read that it is running hot? Either way, the plastic coolant parts in this car wear out, leaving cracks in the coolant parts (overflow bottle, thermostat housing, other various hoses). These leaks may be small enough where they will not be obvious leaks and may only show up when under pressure (when car is running). Air in your coolant lines will cause an overheating issue and does need to be addressed. If your the OBD and/or temp gauge is telling you that the car is running hot, I would make sure that you dont have a coolant leak

Replace the spark plugs every 3 years HAVE TO USE OEM-- NGK -- Plugs (Rock Auto.Com or NGK web site) I said OEM Tip Config,NOT ford parts,they were NGK off the assy line. The ford ones are the WRONG tip,those folks don't care! Replace ALL the COP Ignition Coils The coils are your ONLY Problem I know because I have a 2004 L/S & ten years diagnostic experience with them, with professional tools You only have 2 Fail Safes one for overheating & one that says ETC Don't even try to figure out the obd codes or the etc thing Take too long to explain The dealers can't fix that car,the coils when they get really bad spike the drivers in the pcm & you loose tps signal & go into etc failsafe & can only go 6 mph There is no factory manual that tells you that & your etc on a wiring diagram is the app or gas pedal,but on the obd codes it is the throttle body P2100 codes that point to the motor or tacm,& that is not the problem So the answer is-- no one likes or understands that car, nor can they fix one,so replace all the coils yourself,they only last 6 to 7 years Only need on 7mm socket & get the coils from RockAuto,Com I use Wells Coils The front Oxygen Sensors have to be replaced at 100,000 miles Better be changing that Tran Fluid on ALL your vehicle every 2 or 3 year or they WILL FAIL I guarantee it & power steering fluid also

Needs to be recharged and you more than likely have a leak somewhere

Sounds like your fan motor may be going bad. Do you hear the fan click on? Is the fan the same one that is used for the radiator? If the fan is the same, which I assume it is since the car is overheating, then it probably isn't a problem with the coolant temperature sensor (otherwise the a/c switch would still cause it to come on.) What I would suggest is doing some electrical testing: 1)You can do this with the car off. Unplug the fan electrical connector and jumper wires from the batter to the fan electrical connectors and see if it runs. If it does, the problem isn't with the fan, but the electrical signal getting sent to it. If it doesn't run with the battery connected to it, replace the fan or fan motor. 2) If the fan runs, then check the fan relay. There are a number of ways to do this, but one way is to remove the relay and apply a small amount of voltage and listen for it to click. You can then use an ohm meter to test for continuity on the other side. If both of these check out, we'll go from there.

there are many thing beside a fuse, it may be low on freon or a bad low preasure switch and more ,you are right to start withthe fuses, then have the freon checked to make sure there enough in the system,you may have a leak. the fuse is a 10 amp fuse and its located in the aux fuse box in location F1-O1, here a diagram to help you, this fuse box should be under the hood, sometimes they put them under the dash on the pass/side.hope this helps.

iS THE FLUID LOW OR DIRTY.

Check your blower motor resistor ...burned out .
