It all started with in the last couple of weeks the service engine light comes on ,rad light is on in the morning and air bag light is flashing.Also this morning clock is out and tail light burnt out(do to water in the lense)Mine is a 98 Contour

if the cel is on that means there is an active fault code. go to autozone and have the code read. post the code here.

coolant light in the morning is because the sensor is over sensitive. fill over the max line. also check for leaks just to make sure.

clock has a light, it can burn out. check it and you can get a new one from a dealer.

tail light needs to be removed. clean seal and use some sealer when you reinstall the light.

First gen Contour/Mystique was 95-97
Second gen Contour/Mystique was 98-00 (SVT's only made in these years)

A lot of parts between these years are interchangable.
