New to the escape...
01' Escape v6 automatic...120,000 + miles
When I turn the engine on in the morning my idle is verry rough and jumpy. I noticed that once I get her warmed up the idle kinda smoothes out a bit...my temp sensor light is on in the guage cluster. -All fluids are good -replaced the plugs last night Could the problem be my heat sensor? Has there been any recalls for the Ford Escape 01? Thanks. -Adrien |

Re: New to the escape...
Idle is a little smoother now...still feels bad though.
The tech gave me a copy of the code being thrown... Description - P0354 - ignition coil D primary/secondary circuit - open ignition coil primary circuit - This TDC may be caused by: - short to ground in ignition coil primary circuit. - open ignition coil POWER circuit. - coil I'll be taking it to my brother who's a ASE Certified master tech. I'll post up afterwards if I have it repaired. -Adrien |

Re: New to the escape...
There has been reported..problems with the IAC (idle air control) motor..do a serarch.
Might also be called IAC solenoid or valve. |

Re: New to the escape...
I'm guessing it's coil #4 too...dunno. I've got some free time tonight & will be wrenching out the problem with my bro...I just hope it's the right coil.
#4 should be the front left coil facing the engine right? The firing order is 123 456 Right? I'll post up the results. Thanks! |

Re: New to the escape...
HA!!!!!!!! Before driving across Houston I decided to take a look for myself. I pulled the plastic cover off, disconnected the battery and WHAMM!! The #4 coil was not even connected!!...No problems now runs super smooth. No codes also. Thanks for the help anyways guys!...Just remember to start off with the smallest solution before getting worried!
