Ford can't fix my 2009 ford focus SE because the part is not available. They said it's the smart junction box
That's the Achilles heel of modern cars. Shops don't want to take on a repair that likely will exceed the value of the car and then the owner just walks away after the shop has a couple grand into it and it still doesnt work or it keeps comming back ever other week.
If there's a vocational school near by that teaches automotive repair, they might use it as a case study. But you'll still need to provide a functional SJB. Used from eVendors $75-100 or you can send your unit to be repaired for $250-$300.
My traction control lights on in my 2007 Ford Freestyle 3.0 and I want to know if there's a vacuum that hooks up to that where it's at
This could be two different issues. For the dash light get the vehicle plugged into an OBD scanner or a diagnostic system to check for Trouble Codes. These will give clues as to what and where the issue could be. Comment below with them and I'l try to help explain them.
Unless the problem is with the brake booster most traction control systems do not use a vacuum to operate it. It is usually a set of electronic sensors on the wheels that the ECU uses to monitor tyre grip.
As I cannot look at the car myself for that hose you will need to get a good mechanic to look at it. The vacuum hose could go to many things like the EGR system, the Turbo (if fitted) or possibly to the transmission.
1979 Ford F100 how many gallon of gas I should put in the gas tank to start the engine?
for any vehicle on the market, its only necessary to put enough fuel in the tank to register movement of the fuel gauge.
if you have added enough to see it move just a little bit, that is plenty, if the vehicle does not start, begin test procedures to properly diagnose the reason it will not start.
just a gallon can make most move, but if you have put 3 or 4 gallons is and see no movement, check the gauge circuit including the new float and assembly You have just installed
