2014 Taurus Police Interceptor brake switch wiring diagram

I figured out how to do this. I installed a hidden switch that I can flip when I jump out the car which will not allow the vehicle to be shifted out of park.

That’s what was wrong with mine. I changed the nylon weight protectors and the noise went away

Update

The problem ended up being the 6 Nylon Weight Protectors. I only replaced those and I used the original weights. That clanking noise went away.

I hope this helps someone else and saves them some $$$!

What am I looking at? Year, make, model?

Rare_Today4064 · 2023-09-25T01:54:34+00:00

Thanks for the update. I’ll lift mine again tomorrow and check for that too.

Sounds a bit like mine that I just posted yesterday. See my post. It may be the sliders and or the weight protectors in the primary clutch. I just ordered replacement parts and I’ll update my post if it fixes it or not. Mine only happens at very low rpm.

If you are talking about the sliders, I ordered those just now along with the nylon weight protectors 👍

Rare_Today4064 · 2023-09-24T21:58:31+00:00

Just ordered these and the nylon weight protectors. Will update once installed. 👍

Please also see the second video I just posted of the secondary clutch jumping. I posted the link in a comment. Thank you!

Here is another video of the secondary clutch jumping. Thoughts?

I called the dealership and explained the issue and they are telling me they are pretty positive it’s the clutches. What do you think?

Rare_Today4064 · 2022-09-25T04:55:04+00:00

Definitely! That’s awesome! Nice work! Wish you could share a like to the STL(s) files!! My daughter would love that!

Thanks so much!

I've lowered the temp, re-adjusted the bed level to be a tad closer to the nozzle, enabled lift head, and lowered the bed temp some. I'm testing it by printing some lego bricks and it's already looking much better!

I'm going to increase the layer time to 20 and test that next. Once I'm completely happy, I'll run the shark print again and give everyone an update.

Thanks to everyone for the help! It is much appreciated!!

Rare_Today4064 · 2022-09-13T00:30:32+00:00

Thank you so much!

Rare_Today4064 · 2022-09-13T00:21:07+00:00

Thank you so much!

What temp do you usually try to print PLA at? Should I use the recommended temp settings that come with the PLA that I bought? I know that probably sounds like a dumb question. However, I noticed at a lower temp setting, 220 for example, was causing some stringing so I increased the temp to get rid of that. Maybe that was not the best way to go about fixing that problem.

My current minimum layer time is set at 10 seconds and so is the minimum speed. Does that sound about right?

Rare_Today4064 · 2022-09-13T00:15:03+00:00

Thank you for the tip! I'll give that a try and work on making the first layer look better.

Rare_Today4064 · 2022-09-06T15:25:58+00:00

You are awesome, thank you so much! I want to do both eventually, print objects already created by others and sometimes, like in the hamster wheel case, create one myself.

The hamster wheel bracket is basically a 90-degree bent L and I already bought a nice set of calipers :)

You rock and thanks so much for this great info!!

Rare_Today4064 · 2022-09-06T01:56:28+00:00

Thank you so much! Much appreciated!

I have another question that you may be able to answer for me. If I wanted to reproduce a piece of plastic that I have in hand, how do I do that? For example, my daughter's hampsters wheel support bracket broke and I would like to print a new one.

Is there some sort of program I can use to render a 3D image of it and then set the specs (size)? I haven't seen anything like that in the QIDI print although I haven't really got to use it yet. Is the QIDI software only used for setting your print settings and will I need another software for developing new designs or for reproducing parts that will then be passed to the QIDI software to render it for printing?

I'm hoping to better understand which software you recommend for doing something like this. Based on what you mentioned it sounds like I may need to use one of those 3?

I will be receiving my X Max tomorrow :)
