I keep getting a purge valve, solenoid circuit code, and an EGR code that won’t go away even though I replaced them and they’re brand new. It’s not all the time ,it’s may be like once every two weeks .I just keep clearing it .This weekend I will clean ,change and check every single ground on my 2006 Crown Vic. Thank you for this video. Thank you thank you thank you.
Watching your video makes me curious if I could be having the same issue. I have 3 codes that keep appearing on my 2008 Crown Victoria, P061B, P0451, and P0642. I’ve gotten a new PCM and updated it, switched out the air filter, switched out the throttle positioning sensor, and switched out the accelerator pedal. I then took it to Ford and they said it was a wiring harness issue so I got another harness and switched it out too and now the same problems are all back. I’m not sure if it could be the MAF or maybe it really is just a grounding issue. Sorry for the huge message.
Hey no problem. These tend to be headaches we all deal with. The only solution I found was tracking it back to what pin was the issue. Still had a few PCM's go bad. Recently I added a ground at the alternator. It seems to have made the biggest difference. I don't know. Maybe this whole time the alternator was grounding out to the PCM.
I’m having a huge issue with my 98 P71 I have been rebuilding. New tank/filter/ pump. Almost everything to do at the engine top end and intake has been replaced (manifold,coils,maf,iac,egr,etc…) Everytime I say, floor the throttle and then come to a stop I lose all power. Even made sure it wasn’t the breaks, I had it in park after it almost shut down, reved up to about 4-5k then let go and it shut down again. I notice headlights dim as well at night when it happens.
@@bcbp14 I haven’t had a no start issue. It starts up pretty instant. Just likes to stall out when I stop to quickly or if I gun it and then I come to a stop. To save it I just have to tap the gas lightly and it’ll catch itself most of the time.
I cant find anywhere that has a replacement just like this. Do you think you can help me with a suggestion? I appreciate the video so much. Mine is just dangling there.
Just run an old battery cable instead. It took 2 extra grounds to fix my car. There's one directly to the alternator mount. I think that's the one that fixed my problem. The other one was replacing the battery thin body ground. With a battery cable, too. Pinto rule!
Would anyone know where the grounds are in the interior of a 2001 crown vic? I have no interior lights. Only have break lights. Have replaced everything possible still no lights. Only thing left is the interior grounds in the dash and not sure where they are located. Thanks
Which lights exactly? There is a light control module under the dash. Next to the pedals. Also, what model? Police cars don't tech have interior lights.
@@ReverseGear 10-4 i have a 06 p71 cluster is out except for the fuel gauge and back lighting, hazards turn signals are working fine. Already replaced the cluster now I'm looking at wiring issues.
