Common problems and easy repairs on a 1999 Town Car

The 1999 Lincoln Town Car Signature is a moderately difficult vehicle to maintain, but shouldn’t be too hard for those experienced in vehicle maintenance. Accessing the headlight is difficult to do, as you will have to remove many fasteners for access to the bulbs. You will need to use many tools in order to remove the tail light housing for access to the assembly. You will also need to use many tools to access the reverse light with reliability. These bulbs would have been easier to access if there had simply been access panels in the rear of the vehicle instead.

Some things are easier on the 1999 Lincoln Town Car Signature. Checking the transmission fluid level is no problem, as the dipstick is easily accessible in the engine bay. Not every model includes this dipstick. Changing the front wiper blade is easy to do. Other models will require the use of tools for changing your blades. The engine air filter is easy to access and change on this vehicle. You only have to disengage a few fasteners for access to the filter.
