My college kid has a 97 Contour SE. We have a problem with the wiring systems. There seems to be shorting out of different parts and the wires coating is flaking off exposing the bare wires. Isn't this a fire hazzard? I need a little helping advice on what to do here.
Was there ever a recall on the wiring harness?
yes, there is a recall on this. Information is located in the FAQs.
http://www.contour.org/FAQ/FAQ.php?s=probs&displayid=24Btw, posts like these belong in the troubleshooting just for future reference.
Sure there was.. but.. how is this a group buy?
This should be under Troubleshooting, or General..
Don't bother re-posting another thread.. a mod will move this one when they see it.
Click the "search" button at the top, choose the appropriate forum (troubleshooting, or general, or Duratec maintenance, etc) and type in wiring harness recall, or something like that.
MAKE SURE TO SET YOUR DATE RANGE to ALL...
and read through what it finds.
Welcome to CEG!
EDIT: ARGH.. beat me to it SE!!!
