    So maybe you guys can help me. For about a couple of weeks my suv hasn't been starting up properly and the "test" keeps coming up. Some times the Advance Trac comes up. Last week, I had my suv worked on by a ford service center to fix the wiring behind the dashboard. But is seems they didn't fix it properly I am still getting those messages, the engine is not starting up right away and now my seat warmers on the driver side gets too hot on one side of the seat.

    On Tuesday, I am taking it back to my regular auto body shop to see what is wrong with it and if they find something wrong with it. Then it is going back to the Ford Service Center with one very PISSED OFF ***** aka me!!

    :Grenade:


    So what do you guys think? Any ideas? Thanks for the help.

    what do you mean not starting up right away like it turns over for a few moments before it actually starts?
