I just bought this car. 94 Taurus Wagon 3.0 w/auto... It looks like the trans was replaced with a used one. The speedo didn't work so I replaced the VSS. now the speedo works but the cruise control still does not work. Also its shifts funny. it runs high in the rpms before it shifts. Like the shift points are off. shifts are smooth till I slow down. at about 35mph it downshifts very hard. I did notice the trans mount is very loose and should be replaced. The car is in nice shape and I don't mind putting a couple hundred into it.
There is also a single wire round plug near the brake booster that is not attached to anything. I scouted one at a junk yard but couldnt find where the wire was to see where it goes. I have a similar wire on my ranger it goes to the neg side of the battery. (pull apart for the fuel pump on the ranger) I'm not sure if this is part of the problem tho. other than the hard downshift and the long shift points the car runs and drives nice.
