[resty89]

Hello po,

Just need help on my wife's 2003 Ford Escape, kahapon po eh biglang namatayan ng makina while driving the car few minutes from our house. then she tried to restart the car at nag start naman kaso kapag tinatapakan yung gas namamatay ulit yung makina. then kagabi when i tried to check the car, pina start ko and ok naman then tinapakan ko rin yung gas until maka 3000 rpm and ok naman so ni drive ko sya pabalik ng bahay.. while driving napansin ko sa dash board na naka ilaw yung engine light. usually nakikita ko lang itong engine light kapag patay ang makina at naka on yung susi.. or pagka start ng car biglang mawawala na yung engine light pero ngayon, palagi na sya naka engine light on pero mukhang normal naman ulet yung andar ng car kaya lang di pa namin nailayo kase baka tumirik na naman.. anu po kayang problem nito?

salamat po.

Best to bring it to a shop that can scan for codes.

It's probably linked to the engine dying. Could be a number of things... but most likely related to a failing sensor.
