The symptoms described with your Lincoln LS indicate that it is experiencing a weak window motor. The driver's side window is the most used window in most vehicles, therefore typically it is the to start first to fail. It is...

The relays are turned on by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) by grounding the control wire of the relays. The PCM needs input from the engine coolant sensor above the water pump to sense whether the engine is overheating before...

Hello there. Thanks for writing in. No start faults are one of the most common complaints on many vehicles including your 1995 Pontiac Trans Sport. Cars need three things to start: spark, fuel, and air. Spark is the first one...

Hi, thanks for writing in. Your battery may not have had enough cold cranking amps (CCA). The volts may be correct but if it doesn't have enough CCA, it will not start for you. Batteries that specify cold cranking amps...

Hi there: Most of the time, when the coolant overflow reservoir freezes up due to water being put inside, it can cause cracking; since they are typically made of plastic. The best thing to do is to remove the bottom...
