1994-2004 Ford Mustang: Why is my Battery Draining

Wed, 03 Sep 2025 16:36:33 -0700

If I don’t start my 04 Mustang Mach I in two days, the battery is dead. Pulled individual fuses, no problem. Pulled the #6 High Currency Fuse (located by the battery) and the draw stops. #6 controls the Powertrain Control Module (replaced with a reman with plug and play), I/P Fuse panel and Instrument Cluster. I’ve called three Ford Dealerships and Ford Motor Company who could not provide me with any information as to what the I/P Fuse panel is or where it is located in order to determine if there is a short. Can you help?

1994-2004 Ford Mustang: My car won't start but cranks great

Sat, 24 Feb 2024 15:28:21 -0700

i have a 2004 mustang gt v6 40thyr edition convertible. It has a brand new battery. I have been driving this car and finally parked it in my garage for about 2 month with the battery unplugged. I accidentally bought a new battery so I put the new one in and started the car. (Triee) it cranked over but immediately shut off like it is not getting gas. Now it keeps cranking, all systems are on, but it just won't start. Checked the fuel shut off switch, but it has not been activated so that isn't it. I'm completely confused what it could be now.

1994-2004 Ford Mustang: Have low fuel pressure

Thu, 12 Mar 2026 05:21:06 -0700

Have changed fuel pressure sensors on fuel rail and on gas Tank .Have changed fuel pump .cranks after priming (turning key on and of 3 times ) and ideals if you press the accelerator like normally taking off it will die if you put it in gear and press the accelerator it will die if you slowly float the accelerator and park it will rev up all the way to 3500 RPMs but once you put it in here and mash the gas to go it stalls out. When you just crank it and let it sit there and Auto it autos for a while then it will all of a sudden start missing bogging down and die

1994-2004 Ford Mustang: Will start and run but when you shut it off it will not start again

Fri, 02 Dec 2022 12:44:53 -0700

I've put this car in several shops, the fuel pump has been check, fuses have been checked, fuel regulator checked, I put a gauge on the fuel rail and the pressure will shoot up and then go way down when you apply a little gas. And its almost like it either floods its self with gas or does the opposite whenever you shut it off so when you go to crank it again it will not start at all. I have absolutely no idea what it could possibly be nor have I heard anyone talk about this, any advice???

1994-2004 Ford Mustang: My 2001 mustang wouldn't shift out of park, overheated...?

Sat, 15 Oct 2022 16:54:41 -0700

This car is new to me I just got it last month... Didn't check all the fluids like I should have, and now I'm having problems. I went to leave the store and it wouldn't get out of park. Finally got it out and, on my way home it overheated AC went out. I'm a girl I don't know much about cars but I do know some stuff....only bc I was married to a mechanic and my father-in-law owns car repair shop. I think it's my transmission... my boyfriend doesn't think so.... He just thinks it's a gas issue but of course he doesn't know anything about cars...
