Their is a lot of things wrong with it. If anyone knows the answers to these questions I would like them to be sent to me by e-mail. e-mail www.machnanc@hotmail.com. The van has about 122000.0 miles on it.
#1. The check engine light stays on the only time it goes off is wind you disconnect the battery. But within two weeks the light would come back.
Every time I would put a fuse in it would blow within 3 seconds. I blow about a half a dozen fuses. I check as many connections and grounds as I could then put a fuse in turn on the engine in 3 seconds a blown fuse again.
The guy I took the van to he could not get the fuse to blow at all he said. So he put in some kind of relay that if or wind it blows again I'm to take it to him as soon as possible it will tell him what is making the fuse blow.
#2. The ABS light goes on and off when you hit a whole or hit the breaks to hard.
We have had the codes checked. They are 71,72,73,or 74 which ever it is for oxygen sensor bank 1 and bank 2 these are the only codes that are given.
#3. Back in August fuse #10 kept blowing out on the van. It controls many things like the A.C., Speedometer, odometer, moving power locks, their are many more I just can't think of them right now.
If any one can help let me knew tank you.

we also have a ford windstar van i think 2003 model and have problems, sometime the lights just come on and off inside so i have to cut the control off, my door locks on both sliding doors have about stopped working and sometime the little dinger will go off and on for no reason. we had to replace the convertor or something like that last thanksgiving we was comeing from my grandmas and it just stopped going , would run but couldnt move in drive or reverse,just had to replace the alternator.I think these have something wrong with the wiring , I get so frustrated with ours, I dont think I will ever get another one from ford. we have maybe 80 to 90,000 miles on ours and all these problems.+
