I bought a 2004 Lincoln lse over a month ago and recently started problems with my car showing ETC Failsafe and goes into limp mode. The first night I parked it turned it off and back on and then it was fine, it's happened 3 times and I do the same thing every time as it's always when I'm driving to or from work as I rarely go anywhere. I plan on replacing the coils and plugs and maybe the electronic throttle sensor as I read something about that. I also have been trying to fix the my sunroof leaks as it runs down my front door frames, and my ac is cold but doesn't really have a strong output any recommendations? Other than that she's a great car with lowish miles
 
For the sunroof try something like this: Amazon.com

I got one for my 04 Aviator mine was also clogged up. I opened the sunroof and sat on the center console and then took the long tool and pushed it down both drain holes in the front, the driver side was way more clogged up than the passenger side. Once clear I ran warm water down it to make sure it drained and got anything left over.
 
On the moonroof, probably the drain tube has shrank and pulled loose. That's a very common issue with the LS. I'd splice and lengthen all four of them while I had the headliner part way down to fix the detached one.

Thank you I just purchased it with my coil pack and plugs!
 
Sorry haven't checked this for a while but this is her. I got the previous issues fixed and am now trying to figure out the current issues I've found since fixing the previous ones

Her current issues are my reaction control does not work, the heater does not work and my cruise control likes to shut off after so long and will not turn back on unless I park turn the car off and restart it. I'm not quite sure where to even start with the issues above so any information or suggestions would be truly appreciated. I did get a code for a leak in the one of the lines which I am trying to to find but haven't had luck locating it yet.
