Ford ContourFord Contour combines sporty driving dynamics with the comfort and practicality of a four-door sedan. It doesn't have the rear-seat space of a Taurus, but Ford improved rear legroom and revised the styling. Contour SVT pours on the coal with a higher output version of the Duratec V6, a sports suspension and bigger brakes.
I have a 99 contour sport... my check engine light has been on for sometime i took it to Cottonman because it was throwing off a transmission code along with others....ending up having my transmission fixed thought that would stop the check engine issue...didn't. As soon as my trans was fixed 5 minutes after picking it up light came back on....took it back because trans is under warranty they ran diagnostics on it and it was throwing air sensor codes...recently had all 4 of those replaced few days ago and the check engine light still came on. Took it to Autozone to see what code it was throwing and it threw P1131 (lack of HO2S switch - sensor indicates lean) and told the guy i just had all 4 sensors replaced he told me to disconnect postive cable on my battery for 30-45 min because my car needed to reset itself. I did this today and of course within driving about 15 min it came back on. I have no idea what else to do if it is throwing up the same code when it shouldnt be due to the fact i have 4 new sensors. Any ideas of what to do, this is becoming a pain.
