1999 Ford Taurus 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

The first issue with the car was the ecm so I replaced it with a used ecm model number rac2 same as original which allowed the car to start but once car started the turn signals, hazards, brake lamps, speedometer, and radio does not work. The tacometer works when it wants to but sometimes spikes or just doesnt work at all. During the day there is a constant binging noise as if the keys are in the car with the door open but at night when the lights are turned on the binging noise stops. What could be causing this?

It sounds like the ECM needs flashed by a dealer or the body control module has issues. Did you reflash the computer when you replaced it?

Let me know. We may need a priest on this one. (Lol)
