Asked by David Apr 10, 2017 at 07:36 AM about the 2001 Ford Windstar Cargo

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2001 ford Windstar. It threw 7 different codes. C1236 and C1235
which googles states rear left and right speed sensors, fine I can fix. Code
C1169 not so sure- ABS fluid exceeds maximum timing. I do not know what
this mean. U1260 single end circuit (+) failure. I don't know what this is.
C1446 brake switch has been changed and works fine. why was this code
thrown. B1318 Low battery voltage. my battery was test to be good. Po 442
evap control system leak. What do I do? Is it possible for some codes to
trip from other codes. OH and I changed spark plugs and wire, coil pack,
idling motor and fuel filter yet, it still idling rough. Starts at 2, 2.5 rpms then
slowing goes down to 1 which is ok but once I shift to reverse  it drops to .5
almost killing the engine then jumps up to 1 rpms.

Too many codes for me to type in, so go to www.engine-codes.com and look them up. Has possible causes, and possible fixes.

Check wiring under jack often folks just cram the jack back into storage hole....... Well because average Joe didnt design it there is a main body harness that the jack rides on rubbing and chafing sometimes cutting the wires, there is also a REM (rear electronic module) connects from to rear and runs rear abs components. If the rear window are left open in a rainstorm the module gets wet and is rendered inop or partially. Pull removable seats and passenger cargo area panel to access said components. REM is damaged there are usually sub components that dont work or intermittent enough to drive you batty like rear bulb indicator that remains after replacing bulbs running lights that fail and false codes for brakelight switch ect
