All fords come with a fuel shut off switch, when cars get older they seem to be a little more tempromental. If you look in your manual under fuel shut off switch it will tell you where it is located in your car, all you need to do is reset it by pushing the button and you should be ok.

This switch is made to cut the fuel from going to the engine when in an accident. I don't know exactly where it is on your model but i believe it is in your trunk.

I have 1996 Buick regal gransport and my security light on my dash came on today. What does tht mean? It has never came on before. Is it important to fix or is it minor? What can I do bout it?

usually the security light comes on when the Chip on the key is not being read. this triggers the security light. With mine I had to replace the ignition switch to get it to read the key. If its just the light no problem, BUT if your car starts to develop a crank without starting this means its time to change that faulty ignition switch

Any dash light that is on after the motor starts,
is system fault, that has to be checked for codes

Theft security problem

Usually it means the computer is not accepting the chip in your key.
It can be the key, the sensor in the lock cylinder, or something in the security module or computer.
You might try another key or lock and unlock the driver's door with the key.

02 rendezvous no crank no start power in dash

Battery may be good but the termanals may need to be clean of corrosion. This means scraping the inside of the cable ends as well as cleaning the posts. Also remove the cable ends that connect to thecables and clean the cable copper and inside of ends. Just because you have dash lights does not mean enough juice is there for the starting. Let me know how it turns out. I hope this helps< The Raz
