Temperature Gauge Fluctuation And/Or Knocking/Thumping Noise From Cooling System.
1998-99 Explorer & Ranger
A temperature gauge fluctuation and/or knocking/thumping noise may be audible in the passenger engine compartment. This noise is most pronounced with the engine at normal operating temperature. The knock is caused by steam formation in the cooling system. The noise is then transmitted through the heater hoses and heater core. A coolant bypass kit is available to increase coolant flow which reduces the formation of steam.
Lack Of Tem...

MAINTENANCE LAMP RESET PROCEDURES FOR 2000 Mercury Mountaineer AUTOMOBILES
Ford Motor Co. Trucks -> Check Engine Lamp -> 1998-2006 EEC-V -> Keep Alive Memory (KAM) Reset & PCM Reset Less Electronic Tester -> PCM Reset Using Generic Scan Tool
Vehicle: 2000 Mercury Mountaineer 4.0 V6 GAS
This lamp should light when the ignition is turned On. After engine starts, the lamp should go off, unless a fault condition is detected by the EEC-V system. If the lamp remains On or starts to blink, a diagnostic trouble code is stored in the PCM. Following diagnosis and repair, the Check Engine/MIL lamp will automatically reset when stored diagnostic trouble codes are cleared from PCM memory. The PCM reset procedure allows the scan tool to command the PCM to clear all diagnostic trouble codes.
A temporary fault such as running out of fuel, poor quality or water in fuel or loose...
