Trouble Shooting

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: For trouble shooting procedures not listed, see POWERTRAIN in BASIC TROUBLE SHOOTING article in GENERAL INFORMATION.

NOTE: The vehicle should be road tested, if possible, to verify the customer concern. Some clutch conditions may be attributed to a misadjusted clutch pedal height, linkage, or shift mechanism. These should be checked and corrected prior to attempting major disassembly procedures. Check that the transaxle is filled to the correct level with the specified lubricant. See SERVICING - M/T article in MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS. If the concern is not identified, diagnose by symptom. See SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS .
