I have a 1996 Lincoln Mark VIII with a 4.6 and 56,000 miles. It ran great yesterday and when I went to start it today it would crank but not even attempt to start. Also, for some reason, the antenna would not work, the message center will not light and the fuel gauge pointer points to the left of full. One other thing a little strange, the panic alarm would occassionally go off and would not reset unless I disconnected the battery. Any suggestions?

Could be a problem with the anti-theft module. Check every fuse you can find first. Then test for spark and fuel pressure to see whats missing
