problem #2

Windstar SE 3.8L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 133,000 miles

The problem may be with the FEM (front engine module). Or it could just be the alternator. One is a $100 fix...alt. the other being close to $900. Ordered a new alt. We'll see if that works first. Oh, and ford don't have the FEM anymore. Well one dealer did in Florida...looking to get mine fixed or replaced if needed..
