Consumer Description

THE FORD TECH FOUND A SHORT IN THE CABLE FROM THE TANK PRESSURE TRANSDUCER. THE WIRE WAS RUBBING AGAINST THE FRAME AND FINALLY SHORTED OUT THE PCM AND EVERYTHING WENT BRAIN DEAD. THEY REPLACED THE PCM AND REROUTED A NEW FUEL TANK SENSOR WIRE AWAY FROM THE FRAME. SO FAR SO GOOD. MY CAR WAS IN THE SHOP FOR FOUR WEEKS TOTAL. *TS *NLM *DIMSII IVOQ ENTRY POSTED AFTER 12-12-02 CUT OVER TO ARTEMIS*762059
