My 2000 reg ford focus just cut out when i applied the foot break, the battery, oil & engine lights came on?
Even though it wouldnt drive it didn't turn off, so i turned it off then back on again after 1 minute & it was fine. Why would this happen?
When the engine cuts on a car the oil pressure drops to zero and the alternator stops turning - this puts on the oil pressure warning light and the alternator warning light - THIS IS NORMAL.
If the idle air control valve is starting to go then that would explain the cutting out and then being able to restart immediately. There are though many other posibilities.
There's no such component as a foot "break". Do you mean, "brake"?
My dodge did a similar thing, could never figure it out. I had a friend say that it was a possible glitch.
- 99 Ford ranger XLT base model. Park lights, dash lights, and license plates lights out I checked online and realized it was probably a fuse which it is. Fuse 11 in my power distribution box. The problem is I keep replacing at and soon as I turn on my lights it blows instantly. Have replaced it multiple times. So then I looked under my truck and disconnected the wiring to my taillights and replaced the fuse, it worked it didn't blow. Dash lights and license plates lights were on so I figured some where there's a problem with the brake lights. Any suggestions?
- 2000 Ford Ranger v6 4.0 ltr, my tuck started to cut out and die? I flushed the cooling system and then filled it with water and cleaner, then ran it for about 10 minutes then let it cool, then I drained it and filled it with new coolant; I ran it to get it warm an then it started to die, almost like its not getting enough air or gas. I have no clue what happened or what could happen it seems pretty idiot proof to screw up I don't know what to do.
- How does transferring rego from a SA reg to a QLD reg work when buying a car? My girlfriend and I are in Australia on working holiday visas and we're keen to buy a car in order to travel down th East Coast. We have found a car that looks decent, but the car's rego is for SA and we're in Cairns (QLD) and the rego is up in a few days. How will it work, renewing/transferring the rego from QLD and how much should it cost? The car is a ford falcon station wagon if that matters.
