1988 Ford Thunderbird mileage: 125,000. Hello, a taxicab hit my car while
I was stopped at a red light this morning at about 20 Mph, after we got everything
settled, and I was ready to leave, my car would no longer start! I was informed
that it may be a "safety switch" that disables the car after an accident.... how
do I know if it is, and how do I reactivate it without taking it down to the shop?
Thank you
Answer: Pushing the button on top can reset the “safety switch”.
The switch may be in the trunk or glove box. Check your owner’s manual for
location.
