Question:

What is wrong with my 2003 Crown Victoria, its a electrical problem related to the lights?

I have a 2003 Ford Crown Victoria and when I started the car all the lights flashed [headlights, interior lights, dash lights] then went out. Now my headlights are not working nor is the turn signals. All I get when I turn the headlight switch is the interior dome light flash on and off. There is three positions on the headlight switch [off, parking lights, and on] and when I move it into either position in either direction there is a quick flash of the interior dome light. No headlights flash they just don‘t work, just the dome light and the light under the hood when you have the hood up. Any ideas?

Answer:

Electrical problems in an auto can be mind boggling. The best idea I can think of is to get it somewhere that has diagnostic equipment and pay them to find it. It's the cheapest route.
I had an idle concern in my 1987 Mercury 350. It became into by using undesirable gas. I switched to Shell top rate and further 2 oz. of acetone in line with fillup. concern solved and now she takes the throttle. Acetone is obtainable at WalMart paint dept.
Turn off the auto headlamp mode (see your manual) and that may fix the problem (see service bulletin). Component Description: 75.
