1997 crown victoria/won't start

My father's car died on him. we have changed sensors and computer. was able to start only once after jumping out fuel pump. fuel pump relay is not getting power. also can not get code scanner to read any codes at all. could this be an electrical problem in the steering column or ignition, that causes no power and no codes? please reply with possible answers. thanks, aj

Sounds like the electical part of the ignition went south on you. Replace ignition switch on the column and you should have the power going to where it should be going.

Electronic's ,go figure .. Not all gliches set code's . Could be any number of thing's - sensor's , modules etc..... A professional Tech would have trouble finding what was wrong , even with profession diagnostic test equipment , scanners etc..... It would be better if it died an wouldn't start back up . Check for TSB'S -
technical service bulletins. Check battery an connection's , loose wire's for sensor's etc... engine . That's about all you could do. Hooking up a professional scan tool an checking engine sensor data inputs to the PCM - engine computer . There maybe a bulletin for a reflash of the PCM .

My 97 crown victoria died suddenly while driving down the road and won't restart

Is the fuel pump coming on? Turn the key to on position and listen by gas tank for a humming noise for fuel pump. Check the accident fuel shut off switch in the trunk, it should be on driver side in trunk, behind carpet- pad. if the button is up. Push it down to reset.

Check all of your vacume lines. If it isn't a vacume line it is most likely the O2 sensor.
