Answer 1 :
yes, the controlls are only for the factory stereo
Answer 2 :
It would not work right out of the box. You would need to get a PAC adapter to make them work with the new head unit. Here is an example of one for your vehicle that works with Pioneer and Sony radios. You would just need to get the one that matches your new head unit. http://www.autotoys.com/x/catalog/PAC_SWIPS_STEERING_WHEEL_INTERFACE_p_5696.html

Answer 1 :
Have the window motors replaced.
Answer 2 :
you need to thoroughly check the switches, they could be the problem. The master switch on the drivers door can cause the other switches to not work. start there. I doubt that BOTH window motors would fail at the same time. first thing to check is ALL the fuses. good luck.
Answer 3 :
Check to see if your have current to the door window motors. One way is at night(when dark), click the master window switch or each right door switches to see if the dome light dims (with the door open) or use a test light at the harness plug of the window motor. If the the dome light dims or the test light show current, the hit the window motor with a mallet. This might jar the motor to start working again. With the door panel removed, now is the time to lube all the moving parts.
Answer 4 :
Very common on TCs of that era. If you can hear the window motor running you might get away with replacing the regulator gears. They are plastic and fail with regularity (pun) :

About Lincoln Rhyme handicapped

Lincoln Rhyme handicapped?
I am a big fan of the Lincoln Rhyme novels. I mostly listen to the audio books. I have only heard recent books and he already is handicapped by his spine being "broken". However, I clearly remember Denzel Washington being at a crime scene himself in "The Bone Collector". As they changed the names of characters in the movie, did they also change the fact that Lincoln works "from home" via technology or is he being injured in a later novel. If yes, in which. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1 :
He received his injury in The Bone Collector, the first book in the series. He was definitely handicapped in the movie. You should watch it again. I thinnk there may have been a flashback to him getting hurt at a crime scene, and that's probably what you remember.
Answer 2 :
In the Bone Collector movie, the scene with Lincoln Rhyme working a crime scene and then getting hurt was presented as a flashback. Then the movie fast-forwarded to the present time, with Lincoln now disabled and working at home with the assistance of a boatload of adaptive technology. So in that respect, they stuck to the book (even though they still changed some characters around

It should, Ford is the parent company of Lincoln. I would go with a unit from one of the F-Series trucks, so it better matches yours

Answer 1 :
your tranny is going!, try changing the fluid, and if you have OD, try just using drive
Answer 2 :
There is temp sensor in th trans may be bad,best to have the codes scanned and a proper diagnose
Answer 3 :
old worn out trans fluid or the wrong fluid if it hasn't been changed do that. You can compare it just by letting what you can drip off the stick and then put some fresh out of the container of new fluid you will probably see a big difference when they are compared side by side. Then if that's not the problem look at all the sensors and connections to the trans and if there are no codes and sensors and connections are good then you just need another trans
