Asked by MaryCol57 Jan 31, 2015 at 01:45 PM about the 1996 Ford Taurus GL Wagon

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

The window,power steering, radio, and wipers don't stay on with the car in drive but they do with it in park. I changed the spark plugs which made it a little better but it didn't correct the problem.

Maintenance & Repair
I have a 2004 Ford Taurus (automatic transmission) which has sat idle for the last couple of years with some occaisional startings, but not driven. Battery was dead and we recharged and moved the car around to start getting it road worthy. Found that the gear/transmission handle was extremely hard to shift from park to drive and reverse. Took great effort to shift into any of the selections, but it did function over the weekend. Went to start the car up yesterday and car won't turn over. Battery is powering all systems and lights (no dimming of lights/radio interior systems all function), but car won't attempt to start, not even a click from the starter which worked perfectly over the weekend. Could the neutral safety switch have any hand in preventing car from starting. 3 Answers

Car started fine over the weekend, but shifting from park to reverse/Drive/Low were all very stiff.
