The check engine light came on in my 96 Lincoln Town car. I've done a little research, and realize it could be a loose gas cap, sensor or carbon buildup.
Could it have anything to do with the transmission?
If I disconnect the battery, and then reconnect, thus killing the light, will it immediately come back on if there is a problem, or will it stay off. Should I try that?
Any info on this is appreciated.
I'm in the Albuquerque area if you have a suggestion on where to take it other than Lincoln Mercury. They want $115 just to diagnose it. I guess I'll just have to fork it over if I can't come up with a better solution.
If it's nothing, I'd like to know that too.
Thanks,
Tom
