Mine does this too have you figured out what the problem is? It's throwing a code about the torque converter clutch solenoid but I cannot for the life of me find who sells it
CommentHill start assist not available abs and traction control light on
Ford Escape 2015 Se 136000 miles
Car runs and drives great. Not had any problems till now. The obd port doesn't work. So I can't have the system checked. But I have changed the breaks and abs sensors. And still the same problem.

My BlueDriver claims that both rear wheel speed sensors have wrong part installed. I've read that i need to remove and clean, cross reference part numbers that are etched on them, also check wiring and anything else related to them. I haven't attempted this yet. First, i need to fix the battery drain issue and then emissions issues, then the abs will get its turn.
CommentElectrical, random no start trans position sensor low voltage
Ford Escape 2013 Se 2.0 4x4 220000 miles
Was driving and car shut off. Tried plugging in scanner and it had power but wouldn’t communicate. Ecm relay was clicking multiple times. Towed to shop. They replaced fuse box and now it will operate normal most of the time. There is a code for transmission range sensor that’s located internally. Opened up trans and replaced. No change. Car will randomly think it’s in D as soon as you insert the key to start it. Turn key off and on and will usually start. Sometimes have to turn key off and wait for the display to power off and then it will start. Also when shutting engine off it will engage starter for a split second and make contact with fly wheel to abruptly stop the engine.

Yes mine is doing the same thing what Is it please
Never figured it out. Just shut it off in drive and it doesn’t bump the starter and then place it in park and cycle thr ignition before getting out and it will start when get back in
@LostIt was your fuse box and/or negative post terminal cable thingy... to know for sure, run the car in idle and push on the fuse box

Instrument cluster reads Drive in park
Ford Escape 2005 Xlt, 3.0L 230000 miles
I’ve tried replacing the ignition switch, the neutral safety switch, manually putting transmission in park (which it is in park), the shifter cable is in perfect condition, transmission is fine, but the instrument cluster will not read that it is in park, only in drive. I just got a nee cluster and installed it, and it still says it is in drive. I just help.
