"2001 lincoln town car Engine stall while driving". In the trunk compartment, leftside trunk hood door, on the hinge base, there is a fuel pump circuit breaker; check if popped out upward. If yes, push back in. If this doesn't work, than check electrical connections. Usually, a tare in wire fibers is the cause

you must be more specific when you turn the key does the engine crank and try to turn over or is there no power at all(this means you turn the key and there is nothing no dash lights nothing)or is there lights but no cranking you see you need to supply more info to help me help you or anybody else

The first place to start would be to have the LCM checked for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble code , rather then guessing . B1689 Autolamp Delay Input Circuit Failure LCM GO to Pinpoint Test F . B1691 Autolamp Delay Input Circuit Short to B+ LCM GO to Pinpoint Test F . B1695 Autolamp ON/OFF Short to B+ LCM GO to Pinpoint Test F . Inspection and Verification

1. Verify the customer concern by operating the autolamps.

1. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical and electrical damage; refer to the following chart:

Visual Inspection Chart Mechanical Electrical

• Headlamp switch
• Autolamp switch
• Autolamp sensor

• Blown fuse(s)
• Damaged wiring harness
• Headlamp bulb
• Loose or corroded connection
• Lighting control module (LCM)

1. If the inspection reveals obvious concern(s) that can be readily identified, repair as required.

1. If the concern remains after the inspection, connect the New Generation STAR (NGS) Tester to the data link connector (DLC) located beneath the instrument panel and select the vehicle to be tested from the NGS menu. If the NGS does not communicate with the vehicle:
   • check that the program card is properly installed.
   • check the connections to the vehicle.
   • check the ignition switch position.

1. If the NGS still does not communicate with the vehicle, refer to the New Generation STAR Tester manual.

1. Perform the DATA LINK DIAGNOSTIC TEST. If the NGS responds with:
   • CKT914, CKT915 or CKT70 = ALL ECUS NO RESP/NOT EQUIP, refer to Section 418-00 .
   • NO RESP/NOT EQUIP for lighting control module (LCM), go to Pinpoint Test A.
   • SYSTEM PASSED, retrieve and record the continuous diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), erase the continuous DTCs and perform self-test diagnostics for the LCM.

1. If the DTCs retrieved are related to the concern, go to the LCM Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index to continue diagnostics.

1. If no DTCs related to the concern are retrieved, proceed to Symptom Chart to continue diagnostics.

B1691 Autolamp Delay Input Circuit Short to B+ LCM GO to Pinpoint Test F . B1695 Autolamp ON/OFF Short to B+ LCM GO to Pinpoint Test F . B1873 Turn Signal/Hazard Power Feed Short to Ground LCM GO to Pinpoint Test H . U1041 SCP Invalid or Missing Data for Vehicle Speed ABS PERFORM ABS Self-Test. U1059 SCP Invalid or Missing Data for Transmission/Transaxle/PRNDL PCM PERFORM PCM Self-Test. U1197 SCP Invalid or Missing Data for Door Locks DDM PERFORM DDM Self-Test. U1199 SCP Invalid or Missing Data for External Access (Doors) DDM PERFORM DDM Self-Test.

Earth problem

The ring is part of the wheel hub assembly

check the height adjustment valves for the rear as they may have been damaged when the suspension was dropped down by lifting the body

May still be a bad coil that just hasn't reached the number of misfires to set a trouble code.

When you turn the key to the start position does the starter spin the engine > Is the security light on steady or flashing when trying to start the car ? Is there spark , fuel pressure ? Video's on youtube showing how to check these thing's !

code p 0302 i cylinder 2 --misfire detected ===causes --- engine mechanical fault ( valve seat insert loose , burnt valve , cam followers/ hydraulic followers faulty)---wiring---ignition/fuel system---injector--ECT/MAF sensor ---ECM possible injector fault ( blocked tip) code p 0401 refers to exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system--insufficient floe detected ==== causes --hose leak/ blockage ---basic setting not carried out (if required)---wiring---EGR valve ---EGR solenoid ---ECM as you admit to knowing little about cars , take it to an accredited service center that works on your make of vehicle and get a proper diagnosis and quote Use the codes information and causes I have given you when discussing the problem

At least $200.00 in labor plus the part at about $100.00+ tax

You can't the dealer has to do that with specialized equipment.

Google will direct you to a you tube video

You will most likely need to take it to a dealer to have the fob programmed to the new module.

no, you sure cant, each car has its own ID and the PCM has to be flashed to recognize that car and its computors

yes you can but you would have to bring it to a mechanic or dealer to have it flashed to work on your car

I would suggest looking online first. Generally with older vehicles you aren't able to get much help from the manufacturers and there are a lot of places online that will have the repair manuals available. I will say though that unless you are getting a very big repair done, it might be best to just have a mechanic fix the car for you. Generally it's not worth it to go through the trouble of figuring out how to fix a problem and actually do the work for smaller repairs. It's much simpler and easier to just take it to a professional. http://www.advancetyreandauto.com.au/mechanical-service
