So after i finally found a good mechanic to check out this no start problem ive been having.. The conclusion is frayed worn insulation on the wiring harness wires. And its not just by crank sensor, its happening every where. Dry rotted wires etc.

Anyone have this problem?

My option is to,remove the motor so he can get to the harness to fix them. So im here wondering if theres a better option.

Anyone have a harness?
If im pulling the motor should i upgrade motors?
Are there anything newer people have found with a harness or that uses the same one in our cars?

I have read the 3.0 ford taurus motor works, but not sure about harness

Any thoughts?
 
its a common problem on 98 contour svts. Most people buy a good one, or buy one thats not damaged or junkyard. Its a 45 minute job to remove a harness .. and 45 minute job to install a new one. Message me and I can help with more info. Satya 602-748-7921
