Don't remove the headliner. If I remember correctly, you just pull down hard on the rear trim while standing at the open hatch. Then work thru a crack.

	I just wanted to say THANK U,to Nicky S.and Dave S.(in Texas). I took my car to Best Buy to some music in my car back in August and I few weeks after that,that's when my car started acting funny. I had the music unhooked yesterday and the service engine light went off,and the only codes that were left were the E55,E40,and E52.However the service engine light reappeared. I still just wanted to say thanks,so it may in deed be an electrical problem and not necessary a transmisson problem. I find out for sure the weekend.

	the only codes that were left were the> E55,E40,and E52.However the service> engine light reappeared. OK, down to a more manageable set of codes. I've already explained the E52 code. The E55 is the TPS adjustment. When it was replaced, if it was adjusted 'close enough', the ECM will compensate for any slight misadjustment. This compensation is part of the 'learning' process (RAM) of the computer system. The E40 is what is turning on the service soon engine light. It may be a faulty power steering switch, bad electrical connection at the switch or in the circuit. The ECM uses this switch input to control the ISC(idle speed control). If, after you clear the codes, this code returns, check to see if it is a 'intermittent' or 'hard' code. Remember to give the systems some road time so the ECM can 'learn'(rebuild the RAM). After that time, if that code returns as an intermittent code, then most likely either the switch is bad or there is a bad ground connection. I can give you some simple tests to figure that out, if you are up for that. Dave S(Texas)

	I cleared the codes and I ready for the> tests. OK, I'm going to guess the E40 code is still present. The ECM part of the computer system has the ability to self-test the power-steering switch. In order to begin the test sequence, the engine must be running. Enter diagnostics and let it perform the two passes. Once that is accomplished, .7.0 must be displayed. From the .7.0 point, depress the brake pedal and release it. The switch test sequence will start with E.7.1. That is the brake switch test. If it cycles to the next test E.7.2, let it cycle to the E.7.8 test. Each test will take 10sec to accomplish, so let it proceed on it's own. Once the E.7.8 is displayed, turn the wheels from straight ahead to full left and full right. While you are turning the steering wheel, the ECM is checking the switch. When the tests are complete, the ECM will display the failed tests. Don't be concerned about the failed tests(7.1-7.7), since you didn't perform the action required for each particular test. If the ECM shows the 7.8 test failed, then the switch is suspect. If it passed the test, then the fault isn't present at this time and the service soon light isn't being turned on by the E40 code. If the switch failed the self-test let me know, and I can give you some diagnostic tests you can do. Dave S(Texas)

	Guys, Thanks for all your help over the last couple of weeks with the rebuild of my zetec. Found out why the car was only on three cylinders, I thought all the connectors to the injector rail were individual, but after checking I'd crossed the air inlet solenoid connector with no1 injector. So long and short of it, car now runs except from a leak from near the water pump, took it for about a 60mile run yesterday, and all OK apart from a little overheating. Need to double how the auxialliary belt goes back on as I think I may have made a mistake there and the pump maybe in reverse and that's what's caused the leak. Again thanks to all those who responded. A

Nope, both black connectors with a brown ,different coloured striped, and black wire. Don't happen to know of a pic on the web, that shows the belt routing? All I could find was the one on zetecinside, which is different. Mind you hopefully will be looking under the bonnet of a similar car this avo. Cheers again.

	Among the zillion and one things I'm thankful for are not only NASCAR, but all y'all. Youse guys (to speak a bit of East Side of Chicago here) make it all a bit more fun, and RPG gives a body stuff to root for when one's driver is tanking wildly....

Very little to show, for such a good driver. I'm with you, I hope he ends up with more to show next year than this year... He's cleaned up his public image a lot, still sort of a knucklehead 'off camera', but he's a heck of driver to watch when his stuff is under him.. Jamie had a strong finish, I hope to see him do well in '09 as well. Don't know about changing CC's now though.. Seems like they just got it together with a bunch of top 5's at the end of the season, and a couple of shots at wins..
