Ford AerostarOriginally conceived as an answer to the first Chrysler minivans, the Aerostar is an old school rear-drive van that's at its best when it's harnessed for hard work. It can haul--and tow--heavier loads than the front-drive crowd, and gets the job done with a fair degree of comfort and style.
I hit a nasty pot hole and the engine just quit. I'v ben told that is the "inertia switch" and it can be reset manually. I've looked all over the van and I can't find it. It's supposed to be in the rear cargo area, but I've checked the storage bins on either side, and tried to find any kind of secret hatch, but to no avail. HELP!!
The inertia switch is in the passenger side front, behind the kick panel. Reach over the top of the panel and you should find it, it is round and just push the button down and it will reset.
