2000 ford windstar 3.8 has abs code c1185 power relay circuit failure.
Have looked for relay and cant seem to find location. Does anyone have a clue were relay is located. Vehicle did have have diffrent codes, but after clearing abs light and driving it for 20 miles or so light comes back on. Rechecked for codes and c1185 power relay circuit failure continues to come back. Now I've purchased relay but cant find location. Can someone please help!

Make sure that fuses #101 and #102 (40 amp each ... in battery fuse/relay box) are in good shape.. make sure bases are clean and lubricated.
If the above does no good, things get a bit hairy.
I don't know where you got the relay... I think the C1185 code refers to an internal relay on the anti-lock brake module (under floor pan, under driver's seat) ... and I don't believe relay is serviceable.
You may want to take a look at a shop manual on page 206-09-(16?).
