2006 Lincoln town car no crank no start problem solved

First off on your starter, the small post is not a relay, that is the start signal terminal, the flashing red light does not mean it has codes, it will always flash when the key is off, shows the vehicle is protected. Do NOT ever cut into the factory harness this is what crackheads do, if there is a bad ground or bad connector end, get the proper tools and if you have to, replace the entire wire. You cannot check the codes directly from the pcm, it has to go through the obd2 port, you dont have to crawl under the car to check the starter with a screwdriver simply pull the starter relay and jump pins 30 and 86 and if the starter is good, it will turn over.

@soldierkidd85 what if the car won’t connect at the ob2 port

[@soldierkidd85]

@@JiggyJeff1 then you will need to find out why you do not have power to the obd port, most generally a blown fuse

It sounds like fuse #76 is out but to be sure here is a guide to help us test the fuse and the alternator wiring diagram so you can see how the system works
