2006 ford taurus quits maybe electrical ECM

The engine will suddenly stop and the dashboard goes black. The engine seems to restart easily but a bunch or warning lights and beeps go on and off erratically. If I disconnect the battery the problem seems to temporarily go away.

As to the 1999 ford Taurus we seem to think it maybe some kind of sensor or filter for the transmission? The transmission fluid is clean so no slips or such

Well, see my comment above. You started out with original question pointing to the engine not turning over. Why are you now thinking its a transmission problem? That would be a different issue than the engine not starting. Does it crank and not start, or does it not even crank over? If it cranks, check for spark and gas-one of those is often responsible for sudden no starts, or for stalling and won't restart.
Post back here, where it says "add a comment". Maybe we can clear it up and give you more help, or try anyway.

2006 Ford Taurus SE, Engine light...over 100,000 miles, oil and coolant levels are fine, air filter ok as well.....Runs like it wants to quit, extremely rough......

Stop by a local parts store and have them do a FREE OBII scan (fault scan) There's many things "it could be" but have the scan done so you know exactly what needs attention. The scan will identify what triggered light.
