I started the car yesterday and the radio was turning on and off (by it self) and the electric windows would not work.The mirrors still work and all guages work. It sounds like a relay is turning off and on,any one seen this before.Thanks for any help.

Turn signal light stays ON by otterway

Please can someone help. Ive just found that my right side turn signal lights are permanently ON. If i use the right turn signal i get the clicking sound but at twice the normal speed. The only fuse I have found that turns them off is fuse 59 (instrument panel fuse box). Im no electrician so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know if you have over 36,000 miles but if I were you I would just take it in. Probably have a short in the electrical line to the tail light assembly. You could check to make sure it's not pinched or bent. If it was a fuse it would not work at all. Good luck.

Hey guys, found a list of Ford TSB's and detailed instructions on how to fix them. This is very useful, gives you the power to somewhat diagnose a problem you may or might have with your Mustang be able to go to the dealer knowing more information then they do at times. Just be slick on how you go about letting them know the problem. Dealers seems to hate you diagnosing your car yourself.

These are not specific to the Mustang. For a list specific to the Mustang, as well as the model year, check out Edmunds' list.

Sounds like a bulb on the right side is burned out.

Mysterious Mustang by stangaholic

I have had my 06 V6 for 3 months now and use it as a daily driver. It has very mysterious problems that come and go all I think are related to one or more electrical problems. They are so intermittent that the dealer can never duplicate them and has yet to solve them. Some of the things it does:
 
The stereo (shaker 500) suddenly becomes sluggish (it takes 30+ seconds to change volume am/fm or turn off. If turned off while in this state it will not come back on. Let it set for a few hours and all is fine.
 
Occasionally, after driving the car will not start while hot.
 
Occasionally, while driving the transmission makes poor shift decisions and either doesn't downshift when accelerating (even at WOT) or just downshifts to remind me it is there while in cruise on a flat surface.
 
Occasionally, after driving a short distance and coming to a stop when starting to accelerate the car stumbles (hard almost stalling) then after a few seconds, takes off.
 
These are the frustrating problems not including the list of things that the dealer can fix:
 
Left speaker has a harmonic vibration.
Right door rattles.
Weather-strip doesn't seal against the convertible top.
Convertible top has a listing that causes a rattle at highway speeds(front listing).
CD Player skips unless the disc is new and 100% dust free.
 
Oy!

If the radio continues to do this have them swap it out. The Shaker has had many complaints.
 
Your stumbling has been noticed by others. There is a tsb for the fuel system. It also could be due to the drive by wire throttle.
There are many sites that list the tsb's. do a search.
 
I havent had any transmission issues. But many mod their mustang to override the computer to get rid of throttle lag, shift points, etc.
