Question:
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.
