Ghost in the machine of a 1992 Lincoln Continental
As I'm sure you are aware, EVERYTHING is computerized and Digital on these cars. My problem is that after my Grandmother passed my mother allowed the car, which ran perfectly, motor as well as All electrical parts when I borrowed one weekend right after Gram passed. So, car sat unstarted and undriven for 2 years, then my mother lent it to a young gal she was friends with for about a month, and I'm assuming it ran ok. Then another 6 months went by of it sitting again, and then it was given to me, which is great as it is an Awesome car and JUST turned 100,000! So, anyways, the radio comes when it wants, the gas gauge is not correct most times as I have run out of gas a few times with a few gallons showing on dash. Not Fun!! And, the motor for the trunk stopped working out of the blue one day And the gas door has to now be opened manually from inside the trunk. And I think sometimes the air ride doesn't fully come up all the way, the lighters dont work, which I guess a friends brother checked front and it had a screw in it somehow, and now doesnt work, nor the cruise, only the speedometer Thank god works correctly! But, my main thing right this moment is to get my lighter socket working so that I can plug in my adapter for my Auto insurance to gauge my mileage for billing.
