Question by : Does a 1993 ford taurus have a fuel pump fuse or fuel pump relay?
I have a 1993 ford taurus 3.8L V6 automatic GL. Does this type car have a “fuel pump fuse” or “fuel pump relay” in the fuse/relay box? Also, how would you check the wiring that runs from the fuel pump to the constant control relay module to see if their is a problem?

Most likely both. A fuse is not a substitute for a relay and vice-versa.

Question by joe s: Why did front brakes on 1994 Ford Taurus not function when rear brakes failed?
I have a braking system question for you. The vehicle I drive is a 1994 Ford Taurus 4 door sedan w/ automatic transmission with a 3.0 L engine and standard hydraulic brakes (not ABS).
I was recently on a drive and was comming to a stop light. When I applied the brakes there was some firmness, then the entire pedal sank to the floor. I pumped the brakes but no response. I ended up ditching the car into someones yard and took out some shrubs, to avoid entering a busy intersection. After the car was towed and inspected, it appears that my rear brake lines had become rusty and had a hydraulic rupture.
I have always be under the impression that the front and rear braking systems were independent, so that if one failed you still have some braking function from the other.
Are the Ford Taurus front and back hydraulics independent? If so, why did I totally lose all braking functionality when my rear brake line ruptured?

Answer by Scott H
There are a couple of possible issues here. Maybe your front brakes weren’t working properly and your rear brakes had been providing all your stopping power? The front/rear brake systems are not totally independent. They share a vacuum booster and master cylinder. There is also a proportioning valve which directs roughly 60% of your braking power to the front brakes and 40% to your rear brakes. A failure in any one of these components can cause the problem you mentioned.
You also have the emergency or parking brake, which applies only the rear brakes, but is a mechanical system totally separate from the hydraulic system. You should have used that to help you stop.

Because it’s slow and it’s a diesel. Two things that don’t fly in this country. Also with the exchange rate it would quite expensive for an econobox. Americans don’t like the idea of paying alot of money for a little economy car.

Answer by ibinubu12
By the end of the month they should be trickling in to dealers. They will be in tight supply, though, due to the high number of pre-orders the car is receiving. The plant that makes them has been building for about a month, but haven’t received the go-ahead to ship yet. Ford typically holds new models at the plant for about a month to heavily inspect each product to ensure the launch goes off without a single quality hitch.

Question by FizzWhiz1: How do i get my power windows to work in my 1997 ford taurus?
I have a 1997 ford taurus. I have power windows in it and i cannot get the windows to roll down on their individual switches. I can lower all the windows with the master switch but the individual switches are not lowering them. I replaced the master switch and that didnt do anything. I dont think there is anything wrong with the individual switches because when i lower the windows with the master switch, i can stop the window from moving if i push down on the individual switch on the window i am lowering down. All the motors are working fine in the windows also. Please someone help. Thanks for your answers!!
