Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse/Locations and Relay/Locations contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses and
relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams show the current feed circuit. The current path is shown
from the battery to the ignition switch and to all fuses. It also shows the circuits protected by each
fuse. The circuit is traced from the fuse to the component. All details (wires, splices, connectors)
between the fuse and the first component are shown.
Ground Distribution

Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contain the diagrams that show the complete details for
each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views

Multifunction Electronic Control Modules: Description and Operation Principles of Operation (How
Does It Work?)
The Generic Electronic Module (GEM) constantly monitors its subsystems for concerns. If a
concern is found in one of the subsystems, the GEM will record the concern in the form of a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).
The ignition switch position is very important to the GEM function. Erratic or unexpected GEM
function can often be traced to problems with these GEM inputs.
The GEM controls a variety of systems:
^ interval rear window wiper
^ battery saver
^ illuminated entry
^ headlamp control
^ interior lamp control
^ power door locks
^ Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
^ accessory delay

Attachment III - Technical Information
OVERVIEW
This program includes making sure the wiring harness connector is properly sealed against
moisture/contamination, and inspecting the ABS module for evidence of corrosion resulting from an
inadequately sealed connector.
During the inspection, we expect that most of the affected vehicles will not have any evidence of
corrosion in the ABS module. However, the ABS wiring harness connector still needs to be
inspected for missing or improperly seated seals and/or incorrect connector number.
If the ABS module is corroded, the ABS module and connector must be replaced.

Electronic Brake Control Module: Recalls Recall 07V156000: ABS Module Connector Defect
MAKE/MODELS: MODEL/BUILD YEARS: Ford/Escape 2001-2004 MANUFACTURER: Ford Motor
Company NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 07V156000 MFR'S REPORT DATE: March 30, 2007
COMPONENT: Service Brakes, Hydraulic: Antilock: Control Unit/Module
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 446460
SUMMARY: On certain sport utility vehicles equipped with Antilock Brakes (ABS), the ABS module
connector may have missing or dislodged wire seals. This condition could allow contamination to
enter the module connector, creating a potential for an electrical short.
CONSEQUENCE: An electrical short might cause an ABS malfunction that would illuminate the
ABS warning light, and in some cases, the module may overheat resulting in burning odor, smoke,
and/or fire. This condition could occur either when the vehicle ignition switch is in the off position or
while the vehicle is being operated.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the wire harness connector to the ABS module for missing or
dislodged wire seals, and repair or replace the harness connector as appropriate. The dealer will
also inspect the connector on the ABS module and replace it if it is found to be corroded or
damaged. The recall began on April 23, 2007. Owners may contact Ford at 1-800-392-3673.
NOTES: Ford recall No. 07S51. Customers may also contact The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to

Attachment III - Technical Information
OVERVIEW
This program includes making sure the wiring harness connector is properly sealed against
moisture/contamination, and inspecting the ABS module for evidence of corrosion resulting from an
inadequately sealed connector.
During the inspection, we expect that most of the affected vehicles will not have any evidence of
corrosion in the ABS module. However, the ABS wiring harness connector still needs to be
inspected for missing or improperly seated seals and/or incorrect connector number.
If the ABS module is corroded, the ABS module and connector must be replaced.

MAKE/MODELS: MODEL/BUILD YEARS: Ford/Escape 2001-2004 MANUFACTURER: Ford Motor
Company NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 07V156000 MFR'S REPORT DATE: March 30, 2007
COMPONENT: Service Brakes, Hydraulic: Antilock: Control Unit/Module
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 446460
SUMMARY: On certain sport utility vehicles equipped with Antilock Brakes (ABS), the ABS module
connector may have missing or dislodged wire seals. This condition could allow contamination to
enter the module connector, creating a potential for an electrical short.
CONSEQUENCE: An electrical short might cause an ABS malfunction that would illuminate the
ABS warning light, and in some cases, the module may overheat resulting in burning odor, smoke,
and/or fire. This condition could occur either when the vehicle ignition switch is in the off position or
while the vehicle is being operated.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the wire harness connector to the ABS module for missing or
dislodged wire seals, and repair or replace the harness connector as appropriate. The dealer will
also inspect the connector on the ABS module and replace it if it is found to be corroded or
damaged. The recall began on April 23, 2007. Owners may contact Ford at 1-800-392-3673.
NOTES: Ford recall No. 07S51. Customers may also contact The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to

This article supersedes TSB 04-21-07 to update the service procedure and to clarify this TSB
applies to all powertrain control module (PCM) reprogramming, with or without PCM replacement.
ISSUE PCMs may need to be reprogrammed or replaced as part of a repair. Additional vehicle
concerns may be caused if proper programming procedures are not followed.
ACTION Use the following procedure to reprogram PCMs.
Verify repair after reprogramming.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
PRELIMINARY STEPS - Existing PCM
Reprogramming Or PCM Replacement
1. Connect a battery charger to vehicle.
2. Use WDS if available.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Powertrain Control Module <--> [Engine Control Module] > Component Information >
Technical Service Bulletins > Engine Controls - General PCM Programming Procedures > Page 970
a. Make sure WDS is docked or attached to vehicle battery supply.
b. Verify WDS software is at the latest release level.
3. If there is a communication error, attempt to communicate with a different diagnostic scan tool,
such as NGS, NGS+, VCM or another WDS.
NOTE
IF COMMUNICATION STILL CANNOT BE ESTABLISHED, VOLTAGE DROP PCM POWERS,
GROUNDS, AND CHECK VREF.
PCM REPLACEMENT - STANDARD
1. Open WDS vehicle session with original PCM installed in vehicle. If the original PCM is not able
to communicate, to open a session, proceed to the Blank Path Programming procedure.
2. Install the new PCM.
NOTE
IF WDS NEEDS TO BE USED ON A DIFFERENT VEHICLE WHILE THE NEW PCM IS BEING
INSTALLED, PLACE THE VEHICLE SESSION ON "HOLD" FOR USE LATER.
3. Attempt to start the vehicle.
4. Run KOEO Self Test to check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) in PCM.
5. Check for DTC P0602/P0605/P1639.
a. If DTC P0602/P0605/P1639 is present then Programmable Module Installation (PMI) procedure
must be performed. Use the WDS session opened at Step 1.
b. If DTC P0602/P0605/P1639 is not present, then verify Programmable Parameters are properly
set such as tire size, axle ratio, etc.
6. Check for DTC B2900.

Air Bag Control Module: Description and Operation
The Restraints Control Module (RCM) carries out the following functions:
^ signals the inflators to deploy the air bags in the event of a deployable crash
^ monitors the air bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) for faults
^ illuminates the air bag indicator if a fault is detected
^ flashes the air bag indicator to indicate the Lamp Fault Code (LFC) detected
^ communicates through the Data Link Connector (DLC) the current or historical Diagnostic
Trouble Codes (DTCs)
^ signals the instrument cluster to activate a chime if the air bag indicator is not available and
another SRS fault exists
NOTE: The safety sensor is internal to the RCM and is not serviced separately.
The RCM monitors the SRS for possible faults. If a fault is detected while the ignition switch is in
the RUN position, the RCM will flash the air bag indicator located in the instrument cluster.
When the ignition is cycled (turned off and then on), the air bag indicator will prove out by lighting
for six seconds and then off for two seconds. After the prove out, the air bag indicator will then flash
the two-digit LFC for any current SRS fault. If an SRS fault exists, the air bag indicator will flash the
LFC five times, and then remain illuminated for the rest of the key cycle. The RCM will also
communicate the current and historical DTCs through the DLC, to the scan tool. If the air bag
indicator does not function, and the system detects a fault condition, the RCM will signal the
instrument cluster to activate an audible chime. The chime is a series of five sets of five tone
bursts. If the chime is heard, the SRS and the air bag indicator require repair.
LFCs are prioritized. If two or more faults occur at the same time, the fault having the highest
priority will be displayed. After that fault has been corrected, the next highest priority fault will be
displayed.
The RCM includes a backup power supply. This feature provides sufficient backup power to deploy
the air bags in the event that the ignition circuit is damaged in a collision before the safing and air
bag sensors determine that a deployment is required. The backup power supply will deplete its
stored energy approximately one minute after the battery ground cable is disconnected.

WHEEL SPEED SENSOR REMOVAL TIP
FORD: 2001-2005 Escape 2005 Escape Hybrid
MERCURY: 2005 Mariner
ISSUE When servicing the wheel speed sensors on a 2001-2005 Escape or 2005 Mariner and
Escape Hybrid, care must be taken during removal to prevent damage. The wheel speed sensor
wire has a body plug attached to it. This plug can be damaged if not removed correctly, such as
removal for pinpoint testing. If the body plug is damaged, sensor replacement may be necessary
even though the sensor is functional in all other respects.
ACTION
When removing the body plug, rotate the plug into a position which allows the use of a small
screwdriver to release the tabs on the underside of the body plug. These two tabs are at right
angles (directly above and below) to the sensor wire. See Figures 1 and 2 for reference.

ENGINE - COOLING SYSTEM - LOW COOLANT WARNING INDICATOR LAMP ILLUMINATED COOLANT DEGAS BOTTLE INSPECTION - SERVICE TIP
FORD: 2001-2003 ESCAPE
This article supersedes TSB 03-08-5 to update the vehicle model years and service procedure.
ISSUE Some 2001-2003 Escape 3.0L vehicles may exhibit a low coolant warning indicator lamp
illuminated. This may be caused by a low coolant level, even if it appears there is significant
coolant in the degas bottle. Analysis of coolant degas bottles indicate that bottle replacement may
not be necessary. Adjusting the coolant to the proper level may be all that is required to correct the
condition.
ACTION The following Service Procedure provides tips to help in veritying proper coolant levels.
Additional diagnostic and service information can be found in the appropriate Workshop Manual
Section 303-03.
SERVICE PROCEDURE PROPER INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT OF COOLANT LEVEL IN
THE DEGAS BOTTLE
There are four (4) different cells within the Escape degas bottle. The front cells of the degas bottle
are not a good visual indicator of proper coolant level, as these cells will always give the
appearance of being full (Figure 1). The actual COLD FILL RANGE is the larger cell with the fill
cap, just below the seam. It can be difficult to see if not properly examined.
If the vehicle is HOT when inspecting, the coolant level should be at the bottle seam (minimum) or
above the seam by 1/2 inch, well above the LOW mark. When hot, if the coolant level is not at least
to the top of the COLD FILL RANGE (seam), there is a possibility of illuminating the low coolant
lamp when the vehicle cools down and the coolant is drawn back into the engine cooling system.
DIAGNOSIS Engine Hot Or Cold Coolant Warning Indicator Lamp Not Illuminated (OFF):
1. If the coolant level is found to be below the COLD FILL RANGE (seam) add coolant, tighten
pressure cap and return vehicle to customer.

ENGINE - COOLING SYSTEM - LOW COOLANT WARNING INDICATOR LAMP ILLUMINATED COOLANT DEGAS BOTTLE INSPECTION - SERVICE TIP
FORD: 2001-2003 ESCAPE
This article supersedes TSB 03-08-5 to update the vehicle model years and service procedure.
ISSUE Some 2001-2003 Escape 3.0L vehicles may exhibit a low coolant warning indicator lamp
illuminated. This may be caused by a low coolant level, even if it appears there is significant
coolant in the degas bottle. Analysis of coolant degas bottles indicate that bottle replacement may
not be necessary. Adjusting the coolant to the proper level may be all that is required to correct the
condition.
ACTION The following Service Procedure provides tips to help in veritying proper coolant levels.
Additional diagnostic and service information can be found in the appropriate Workshop Manual
Section 303-03.
SERVICE PROCEDURE PROPER INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT OF COOLANT LEVEL IN
THE DEGAS BOTTLE
There are four (4) different cells within the Escape degas bottle. The front cells of the degas bottle
are not a good visual indicator of proper coolant level, as these cells will always give the
appearance of being full (Figure 1). The actual COLD FILL RANGE is the larger cell with the fill
cap, just below the seam. It can be difficult to see if not properly examined.
If the vehicle is HOT when inspecting, the coolant level should be at the bottle seam (minimum) or
above the seam by 1/2 inch, well above the LOW mark. When hot, if the coolant level is not at least
to the top of the COLD FILL RANGE (seam), there is a possibility of illuminating the low coolant
lamp when the vehicle cools down and the coolant is drawn back into the engine cooling system.
DIAGNOSIS Engine Hot Or Cold Coolant Warning Indicator Lamp Not Illuminated (OFF):
1. If the coolant level is found to be below the COLD FILL RANGE (seam) add coolant, tighten
pressure cap and return vehicle to customer.

Engine Coolant Temperature
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor (Figure 27) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the
temperature increases, and increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance
affects the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in a series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The ECT measures the temperature of the engine coolant. The sensor is threaded into an engine
coolant passage. The ECT sensor is similar in construction to the IAT sensor.

Engine Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor
Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) Sensor
The Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) sensor (Figure 26) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as
temperature increases, and increases as temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects
the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor is installed in the aluminum cylinder head and
measures the metal temperature. The CHT sensor can provide complete engine temperature
information and can be used to infer coolant temperature. If the CHT sensor conveys an
overheating condition to the PCM, the PCM would then initiate a fail-safe cooling strategy based on
information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system failure such as low coolant or coolant loss
could cause an overheating condition. As a result, damage to major engine components could
occur. Using both the CHT sensor and fail-safe cooling strategy, the PCM prevents damage by
allowing air cooling of the engine and limp home capability. For additional information, refer to
Powertrain Control Software for Fail-Safe Cooling Strategy details. See: Powertrain
Management/Description and Operation/Powertrain Control Software

A/C Evaporator Temperature (ACET) Sensor Voltage And Resistance Chart, Part 2
The Air Conditioning Evaporative Temperature (ACET) sensor senses evaporator air discharge
temperature. The ACET sensor is a thermistor device in which resistance changes with
temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and
increases as the temperature decreases. The PCM sources a low current 5 volts on the ACET
circuit. With SIG RTN also connected to the ACET sensor, the varying resistance affects the
voltage drop across the sensor terminals. As A/C evaporator air temperature changes, the varying
resistance of the ACET sensor changes the voltage the PCM detects.
The ACET sensor is used to more accurately control A/C clutch cycling, improving defrost/demist
performance, reduce A/C clutch cycling, etc.

Refrigerant Pressure Sensor / Switch: Description and Operation
A/C Cycling Switch
A/C Cycling Switch
The A/C cycling switch is mounted on a Schrader valve-type fitting on the top of the suction
accumulator. ^
A valve depressor, located inside the threaded end of the A/C cycling switch, presses in on the
Schrader valve stem.
^ This allows the suction pressure inside the suction accumulator to control the operation of the
A/C cycling switch.
^ The electrical switch contacts open when the suction pressure drops to 152-193 kPa (22-28 psi).
^ The contacts close when the suction pressure rises to 276-324 kPa (40-47 psi).
^ When the A/C cycling switch contacts close, the signal to energize the A/C clutch is sent to the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) which energizes the A/C relay and supplies B+ voltage to the
A/C clutch field coil.
^ When the A/C cycling switch contacts open, the A/C clutch field coil is deenergized and
compressor operation stops.
^ The A/C cycling switch will control the A/C evaporator core pressure at a point where the plate/fin
surface temperature will be maintained slightly above freezing.
^ This prevents icing of the A/C evaporator core and blockage of airflow.
^ It is not necessary to discharge the refrigerant system to remove the A/C cycling switch.
A/C Pressure Cut-Off Switch
The A/C pressure cut-off switch is used to interrupt A/C compressor operation in the event of high
system discharge pressures. ^
The A/C pressure cut-off switch is mounted on a Schrader valve-type fitting on the high pressure
side of the condenser to evaporator line.
^ A valve depressor, located inside the threaded end of the A/C pressure cut-off switch, is used to
monitor the compressor discharge pressure.
^ It is not necessary to discharge the refrigerant system to remove the A/C pressure cut-off switch.
^ The A/C pressure cut-off switch has two sets of contacts. One electrical contact is normally
closed.
^ When the compressor discharge pressure rises to approximately 3,103 kPa (450 psi), the switch
contacts open, disengaging the A/C compressor.
^ When the pressure drops to approximately 1,724 kPa (250 psi), the contacts close to allow
operation of the A/C compressor.
The switch contains a second set of electrical contacts used for high-speed fan control. ^
When the compressor discharge pressure reaches approximately 2,241 kPa (325 psi), these
contacts close and engage the high-speed fan control.
^ When the pressure drops to approximately 1,896 kPa (275 psi), the contacts again open and the
high speed fan control is disengaged.

Brake Pedal Position Switch
Typical Brake Pedal Position Switch
The Brake Pedal Position (BPP) switch (Figure 21) is used by the PCM to disengage the
transmission torque converter clutch and on some applications as an input to the idle speed control
for idle quality and for vehicle speed control deactivation. On most applications the BPP switch is
hard wired to the PCM and supplies battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is
applied. On other applications the BPP switch signal is broadcast over the SCP link via another
module to be received by the PCM.
On applications where the BPP switch is hard wired to the PCM and stoplamp circuit, if all
stoplamp bulbs are burned out (open), high voltage is present at the PCM due to a pull-up resistor
in the PCM. This provides fail-safe operation in the event the circuit to the stoplamp bulbs has
failed.

Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor
Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure (TMAP) Sensor
The Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor (TMAP) (Figure 40) consists of a Manifold
Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor and an integrated thermistor. The thermistor part of the sensor is
currently not being used. The MAP part of the sensor measures intake manifold air absolute
pressure. The PCM uses information from the MAP sensor, Throttle Position (TP) sensor, mass air
flow (MAF) sensor, engine coolant temperature (ECT) or cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor
and crankshaft position (CKP) sensor to determine how much exhaust gas is introduced into the
intake manifold.

Mass Air Flow Sensor
Typical Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor
Diagram Of Air Flow Through Throttle Body Contacting MAF Sensor Hot And Cold Wire Terminals
The Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor uses a hot wire sensing element to measure the amount of air
entering the engine. Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at
200°C (392°F) above ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire (Figure 35). If the
hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced, then the entire assembly must be replaced.
Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.
The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the air mass flow.
The MAF sensor then outputs an analog voltage signal to the PCM proportional to the intake air
mass. The PCM calculates the required fuel injector pulse width in order to provide the desired
air/fuel ratio (Figure 36). This input is also used in determining transmission Electronic Pressure
Control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling.

temperature (IAT) sensor. The present applications with IBT are: Focus, Escort (4V), 2.0L Cougar,

Camshaft Position Sensor
The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor detects the position of the camshaft. The CMP sensor
identifies when piston No.1 is on its compression stroke. A signal is then sent to the powertrain
control module (PCM) and used for synchronizing the firing of sequential fuel injectors. The Coil On
Plug (COP) Ignition applications also use the CMP signal to select the proper ignition coil to fire.
The input circuit to the PCM is referred to as the CMP input or circuit.

There are two types of CMP sensors: the three pin connector Hall-effect type sensor (Figure 22)
and the two pin connector variable reluctance sensor (Figure 23).

Clutch Pedal Position Switch
Typical Clutch Pedal Position (CPP)/Park-Neutral Position (PNP) Switches
The Clutch Pedal Position (CPP) switch (Figure 24) is an input to the PCM indicating the clutch
pedal position and, in some manual transmission applications, both the clutch pedal engagement
position and the gear shift position. The PCM provides a 5-volt reference (VREF) signal to the CPP
switch and/or a Park/Neutral Position (PNP) switch (on the CPP signal line). If the CPP switch
(either or both CPP and PNP switches are closed) is closed, indicating the clutch pedal is engaged
and the shift lever is in the NEUTRAL position, the output voltage (5 volts) from the PCM is
grounded through the signal return line to the PCM, and there is 1 volt or less. One volt or less
indicates there is a reduced load on the engine. If the CPP switch (or PNP switch on vehicle or
both CPP and PNP switches open on the vehicle) is open, meaning the clutch pedal is disengaged
(all systems) and the shift lever is not in NEUTRAL position (PNP switch systems), the input on the
CPP signal to the PCM will be approximately 5 volts. Then, the 5-volt signal input at the PCM will
indicate a load on the engine. The PCM uses the load information in mass air flow and fuel
calculations.

Engine Coolant Temperature
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor (Figure 27) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the
temperature increases, and increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance
affects the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in a series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The ECT measures the temperature of the engine coolant. The sensor is threaded into an engine
coolant passage. The ECT sensor is similar in construction to the IAT sensor.

Crankshaft Position Sensor (Integrated Ignition Systems)
Three Different Types Of Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensors
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is a magnetic transducer mounted on the engine block
adjacent to a pulse wheel located on the crankshaft. By monitoring the crankshaft mounted pulse
wheel, the CKP is the primary sensor for ignition information to the powertrain control module
(PCM). The trigger wheel has a total of 35 teeth spaced 10 degrees apart with one empty space for
a missing tooth. The 6.8L ten cylinder pulse wheel has 39 teeth spaced 9 degrees apart and one 9
degree empty space for a missing tooth. By monitoring the trigger wheel, the CKP indicates
crankshaft position and speed information to the PCM. By monitoring the missing tooth, the CKP is
also able to identify piston travel in order to synchronize the ignition system and provide a way of
tracking the angular position of the crankshaft relative to fixed reference (Figure 25).

Engine Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor
Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) Sensor
The Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) sensor (Figure 26) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as
temperature increases, and increases as temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects
the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor is installed in the aluminum cylinder head and
measures the metal temperature. The CHT sensor can provide complete engine temperature
information and can be used to infer coolant temperature. If the CHT sensor conveys an
overheating condition to the PCM, the PCM would then initiate a fail-safe cooling strategy based on
information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system failure such as low coolant or coolant loss
could cause an overheating condition. As a result, damage to major engine components could
occur. Using both the CHT sensor and fail-safe cooling strategy, the PCM prevents damage by
allowing air cooling of the engine and limp home capability. For additional information, refer to
Powertrain Control Software for Fail-Safe Cooling Strategy details. See: Powertrain
Management/Description and Operation/Powertrain Control Software

Intake Air Temperature Sensor
Intake Air Temperature (IAT)
The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensors (Figure 33) and integrated Mass Air Flow (MAF) type
(Figure 36), are thermistor devices in which resistance changes with temperature The electrical
resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and increases as the
temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects the voltage drop across the sensor
terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in a series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The IAT provides air temperature information to the PCM. The PCM uses the air temperature
information as a correction factor in the calculation of fuel, spark and MAF.
The IAT sensor provides a quicker temperature change response time than the ECT or CHT
sensor.
Supercharged vehicles use (2) IAT sensors. Both sensors are thermistor type devices and operate
as above. However, one is located before the supercharger at the air cleaner for standard OBD
II/cold weather input, while a second sensor (IAT2) is located after the supercharger in the intake
manifold. The IAT2 sensor located after the supercharger provides air temperature information to
the PCM to control border-line spark and to help determine intercooler efficiency.
Currently two types of IAT2 sensors are used. A screw in type (Figure 33) and an integrated type,
witch is part of the Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure (TMAP) sensor (Figure 40). The TMAP
sensor consists of a IAT thermistor and a Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor. The
thermistor portion of the TMAP is used for IAT2 function and operates in the same manner as a
non-integrated IAT2. For additional information on the MAP portion of the TMAP, refer to the
Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor description and operation.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Heated Oxygen Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Heated Oxygen Sensor
Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S)
The Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) (Figure 32) detects the presence of oxygen in the exhaust and
produces a variable voltage according to the amount of oxygen detected. A high concentration of
oxygen (lean air/fuel ratio) in the exhaust produces a low voltage signal less than 0.4 volt. A low
concentration of oxygen (rich air/fuel ratio) produces a high voltage signal greater than 0.6 volt. The
HO2S provides feedback to the PCM indicating air/fuel ratio in order to achieve a near
stoichiometric air/fuel ratio of 14.7:1 during closed loop engine operation. The HO2S generates a
voltage between 0.0 and 1.1 volts.
Embedded with the sensing element is the HO2S heater. The heating element heats the sensor to
temperatures of 800°C (1400°F). At approximately 300°C (600°F) the engine can enter closed loop
operation. The VPWR circuit supplies voltage to the heater and the PCM will complete the ground
when the proper conditions occur. For model year 1998 a new HO2S heater and heater control
system are installed on some vehicles. The high power heater reaches closed loop fuel control
temperatures. The use of this heater requires that the HO2S heater control be duty cycled, to
prevent damage to the heater. The 6 ohm design is not interchangeable with new style 3.3 ohm
heater.

Oxygen Sensors
Upstream Heated and Downstream Heated Oxygen Sensors
The HO2S provide the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with voltage and frequency information
related to the oxygen content of the exhaust gas. (Refer to the PCM Inputs for a description of how
the HO2S operates.)
In addition to providing the PCM with indications of how rich/lean the engine is operating, the
upstream HO2S signal serves as an input to the HO2S monitor. The downstream HO2S signal is
an input to the Catalyst Efficiency monitor. (Refer to the OBD II Monitors for specific information on
these monitors.)

Power Steering Pressure Switch
Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Switch
The Power Steering Pressure (PSP) switch (Figure 37) monitors the hydraulic pressure within the
power steering system. The PSP switch is a normally closed switch that opens as the hydraulic
pressure increases The PCM uses the input signal from the PSP switch to compensate for
additional loads on the engine by adjusting the idle rpm and preventing engine stall during parking
maneuvers. Also, the PSP switch signals the PCM to adjust transmission electronic pressure
control (EPC) pressure during the increased engine load, for example during parking maneuvers.

Pressure Feedback Exhaust Sensor: Description and Operation
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 86) is a ceramic, capacitive-type pressure
transducer that monitors the differential pressure across a metering orifice located in the orifice
tube assembly. The differential pressure feedback sensor receives this signal through two hoses
referred to as the downstream pressure hose (REF SIGNAL) and upstream pressure hose (HI
SIGNAL). The HI and REF hose connections are marked on the aluminum differential pressure
feedback EGR sensor housing for identification (note that the HI signal uses a larger diameter
hose). The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor outputs a voltage proportional to the
pressure drop across the metering orifice and supplies it to the PCM as EGR flow rate feedback.

Tube Mounted Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The tube mounted differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 87) is identical in operation
as the larger metal or plastic DPFE sensors and uses a 1.0 volt offset. The HI and REF hose
connections are marked on the underside of the sensor.

Throttle Position Sensor: Description and Operation
Throttle Position Sensor
Typical Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
The throttle position (TP) sensor (Figure 41) is a rotary potentiometer sensor that provides a signal
to the PCM that is linearly proportional to the throttle plate/shaft position. The sensor housing has a
three-blade electrical connector that may be gold plated. The gold plating increases corrosion
resistance on terminals and increases connector durability. The TP sensor is mounted on the
throttle body. As the TP sensor is rotated by the throttle shaft, four operating conditions are
determined by the PCM from the TP. Those conditions are closed throttle (includes idle or
deceleration), part throttle (includes cruise or moderate acceleration), wide open throttle (includes
maximum acceleration or de-choke on crank), and throttle angle rate.
The TP sensor monitors throttle position and provides an electrical signal to the PCM. It is
monitored by the OBD II system for component integrity, system functionality, and faults that can
cause emissions levels to exceed standards set in government regulations. For additional
information on the TP sensor, refer to Electronic EC System Hardware-PCM Inputs.

Vehicle Speed Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Vehicle Speed Sensor
Typical Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)
The Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) (Figure 44) is a variable reluctance or Hall-effect sensor that
generates a waveform with a frequency that is proportional to the speed of the vehicle. If the
vehicle is moving at a relatively low velocity, the sensor produces a signal with a low frequency. As
the vehicle velocity increases, the sensor generates a signal with a higher frequency. The PCM
uses the frequency signal generated by the VSS (and other inputs) to control such parameters as
fuel injection, ignition control, transmission/transaxle shift scheduling and torque converter clutch
scheduling.

Vehicle Speed Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Output
Powertrain Control Module - Vehicle Speed Output (VSO)
The PCM-VSO (Powertrain Control Module - Vehicle Speed Output) speed signal subsystem
generates vehicle speed information for distribution to the vehicle's electrical/electronic modules
and subsystems that require vehicle speed data. This subsystem senses the transmission output
shaft speed with a sensor. The data is processed by the PCM, and distributed as a hard-wired
signal or as a multiplexed data message.
The key features of the PCM-VSO system are to: ^
Infer vehicle movement from the output shaft sensor signal
^ Convert transmission output shaft rotational information to vehicle speed information
^ Compensate for tire size and axle ratio with a programmed calibration variable
^ Utilize a transfer case sensor for four wheel drive applications
^ Distribute vehicle speed information as a multiplexed message and/or an analog signal
The signal from a non-contact shaft sensor (Output Shaft Sensor--OSS or Transfer Case Shaft
Sensor--TCSS) mounted on the transmission (automatics, manuals, or 4X4 transfer cases) is
sensed directly by the PCM. The PCM converts the OSS or TCSS information to 8000 pulses per
mile, based on a tire and axle ratio conversion factor. This conversion factor is programmed into
the PCM at the time the vehicle is assembled and can be reprogrammed in the field for servicing
changes in the tire size and axle ratio. The PCM transmits the computed vehicle speed and
distance traveled information to all the vehicle speed signal users on the vehicle. VSO information
can be transmitted by a hard-wired interface between the vehicle speed signal user and the PCM,
or by Speed and Odometer SCP multiplexed data messages.
The VSO hard-wired signal wave form is a DC square wave with a voltage level of 0 to VBAT.
Typical output operating range is 2.22Hz per MPH ( 1.3808 Hz pr 1 Km/h). Multiplexed data for
speed and distance data are transmitted as separate SCP messages over the SCP multiplex link.

Pressure Feedback Exhaust Sensor: Description and Operation
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 86) is a ceramic, capacitive-type pressure
transducer that monitors the differential pressure across a metering orifice located in the orifice
tube assembly. The differential pressure feedback sensor receives this signal through two hoses
referred to as the downstream pressure hose (REF SIGNAL) and upstream pressure hose (HI
SIGNAL). The HI and REF hose connections are marked on the aluminum differential pressure
feedback EGR sensor housing for identification (note that the HI signal uses a larger diameter
hose). The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor outputs a voltage proportional to the
pressure drop across the metering orifice and supplies it to the PCM as EGR flow rate feedback.

Tube Mounted Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The tube mounted differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 87) is identical in operation
as the larger metal or plastic DPFE sensors and uses a 1.0 volt offset. The HI and REF hose
connections are marked on the underside of the sensor.

Mass Air Flow Sensor: Description and Operation
Mass Air Flow Sensor
Typical Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor
Diagram Of Air Flow Through Throttle Body Contacting MAF Sensor Hot And Cold Wire Terminals
The Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor uses a hot wire sensing element to measure the amount of air
entering the engine. Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at
200°C (392°F) above ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire (Figure 35). If the
hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced, then the entire assembly must be replaced.
Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.
The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the air mass flow.
The MAF sensor then outputs an analog voltage signal to the PCM proportional to the intake air
mass. The PCM calculates the required fuel injector pulse width in order to provide the desired
air/fuel ratio (Figure 36). This input is also used in determining transmission Electronic Pressure
Control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling.

Some MAF sensors have Integrated Bypass Technology (IBT) with an integrated intake air
temperature (IAT) sensor. The present applications with IBT are: Focus, Escort (4V), 2.0L Cougar,
Escape, Taurus/Sable, Windstar, Explorer/Mountaineer and E-Series.
The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner
assembly.

Fuel Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation
Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor
Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) Sensor
The Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) sensor (Figure 30) is a diaphragm strain gauge device in which
resistance changes with pressure. The electrical resistance of a strain gauge increases as
pressure increases, and decreases as pressure decreases. The varying resistance affects the
voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding
to pressure.
Strain gauge type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The FRP sensor measures the pressure of the fuel near the fuel injectors. This signal is used by
the PCM to adjust the fuel injector pulse width and meter fuel to each engine combustion cylinder.
Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) Sensor
The fuel rail pressure (FRP) sensor (Figure 31) senses the pressure difference between the fuel
rail and the intake manifold. The return fuel line to the fuel tank has been deleted in this type of fuel
system. The differential fuel/intake manifold pressure together with measured fuel temperature
provides an indication of the fuel vapors in the fuel rail. Both differential pressure and temperature
feedback signals are used to control the speed of the fuel pump. The speed of the fuel pump
sustains fuel rail pressure which preserve fuel in its liquid state. The dynamic range of the fuel
injectors increase because of the higher rail pressure, which allows the injector pulse width to
decrease.

Fuel Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Engine Fuel Temperature Sensor
Engine Fuel Temperature (EFT) Sensor
The Engine Fuel Temperature (EFT) sensor (Figure 28) is a thermistor device in which resistance
changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature
increases, and increases as temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects the voltage
drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to
temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The EFT sensor measures the temperature of the fuel near the fuel injectors. This signal is used by
the PCM to adjust the fuel injector pulse width and meter fuel to each engine combustion cylinder

Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch: Description and Operation
Inertia Fuel Shutoff (IFS) Switch
The Inertia Fuel Shutoff (IFS) switch (Figure 72) is used in conjunction with the electric fuel pump.
The purpose of the IFS switch is to shut off the fuel pump if a collision occurs. It consists of a steel
ball held in place by a magnet. When a sharp impact occurs, the ball breaks loose from the
magnet, rolls up a conical ramp and strikes a target plate which opens the electrical contacts of the
switch and shuts off the electric fuel pump. Once the switch is open, it must be manually reset
before restarting the vehicle. Refer to the Owner Guide for the location of the IFS.

Throttle Position Sensor: Description and Operation
Throttle Position Sensor
Typical Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
The throttle position (TP) sensor (Figure 41) is a rotary potentiometer sensor that provides a signal
to the PCM that is linearly proportional to the throttle plate/shaft position. The sensor housing has a
three-blade electrical connector that may be gold plated. The gold plating increases corrosion
resistance on terminals and increases connector durability. The TP sensor is mounted on the
throttle body. As the TP sensor is rotated by the throttle shaft, four operating conditions are
determined by the PCM from the TP. Those conditions are closed throttle (includes idle or
deceleration), part throttle (includes cruise or moderate acceleration), wide open throttle (includes
maximum acceleration or de-choke on crank), and throttle angle rate.
The TP sensor monitors throttle position and provides an electrical signal to the PCM. It is
monitored by the OBD II system for component integrity, system functionality, and faults that can
cause emissions levels to exceed standards set in government regulations. For additional
information on the TP sensor, refer to Electronic EC System Hardware-PCM Inputs.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Camshaft Position Sensor
The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor detects the position of the camshaft. The CMP sensor
identifies when piston No.1 is on its compression stroke. A signal is then sent to the powertrain
control module (PCM) and used for synchronizing the firing of sequential fuel injectors. The Coil On
Plug (COP) Ignition applications also use the CMP signal to select the proper ignition coil to fire.
The input circuit to the PCM is referred to as the CMP input or circuit.
Typical Hall-Effect Sensor
Typical Variable Reluctance Sensor
There are two types of CMP sensors: the three pin connector Hall-effect type sensor (Figure 22)
and the two pin connector variable reluctance sensor (Figure 23).

Crankshaft Position Sensor (Integrated Ignition Systems)
Three Different Types Of Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensors
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is a magnetic transducer mounted on the engine block
adjacent to a pulse wheel located on the crankshaft. By monitoring the crankshaft mounted pulse
wheel, the CKP is the primary sensor for ignition information to the powertrain control module
(PCM). The trigger wheel has a total of 35 teeth spaced 10 degrees apart with one empty space for
a missing tooth. The 6.8L ten cylinder pulse wheel has 39 teeth spaced 9 degrees apart and one 9
degree empty space for a missing tooth. By monitoring the trigger wheel, the CKP indicates
crankshaft position and speed information to the PCM. By monitoring the missing tooth, the CKP is
also able to identify piston travel in order to synchronize the ignition system and provide a way of
tracking the angular position of the crankshaft relative to fixed reference (Figure 25).

NOTE: The safety sensor is internal to the RCM and is not serviced separately.
The RCM monitors the SRS for possible faults. If a fault is detected while the ignition switch is in
the RUN position, the RCM will flash the air bag indicator located in the instrument cluster.
When the ignition is cycled (turned off and then on), the air bag indicator will prove out by lighting
for six seconds and then off for two seconds. After the prove out, the air bag indicator will then flash
the two-digit LFC for any current SRS fault. If an SRS fault exists, the air bag indicator will flash the
LFC five times, and then remain illuminated for the rest of the key cycle. The RCM will also
communicate the current and historical DTCs through the DLC, to the scan tool. If the air bag
indicator does not function, and the system detects a fault condition, the RCM will signal the
instrument cluster to activate an audible chime. The chime is a series of five sets of five tone
bursts. If the chime is heard, the SRS and the air bag indicator require repair.
LFCs are prioritized. If two or more faults occur at the same time, the fault having the highest
priority will be displayed. After that fault has been corrected, the next highest priority fault will be
displayed.
The RCM includes a backup power supply. This feature provides sufficient backup power to deploy
the air bags in the event that the ignition circuit is damaged in a collision before the safing and air
bag sensors determine that a deployment is required. The backup power supply will deplete its
stored energy approximately one minute after the battery ground cable is disconnected.

Power Steering Pressure Switch
Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Switch
The Power Steering Pressure (PSP) switch (Figure 37) monitors the hydraulic pressure within the
power steering system. The PSP switch is a normally closed switch that opens as the hydraulic
pressure increases The PCM uses the input signal from the PSP switch to compensate for
additional loads on the engine by adjusting the idle rpm and preventing engine stall during parking
maneuvers. Also, the PSP switch signals the PCM to adjust transmission electronic pressure
control (EPC) pressure during the increased engine load, for example during parking maneuvers.

OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED SENSOR
The Output Shaft Speed Sensor (OSS), provides the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with
information about the rotational speed of an output shaft. The PCM uses the information to control
and diagnose powertrain behavior. In some applications, the sensor is also used as the source of
vehicle speed. The sensor may be physically located in different places on the vehicle, depending
upon the specific application. The design of each speed sensor is unique and depends on which
powertrain control feature uses the information generated.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Alignment > System Information > Technical Service Bulletins > By Symptom: >
04-21-4 > Nov > 04 > Steering - Improved Drift/Pull Diagnostics > Page 1721
Adjustment of camber and caster can be made by rotating the upper strut mount into one (1) of four
(4) positions. The orientation of the strut rod relative to the center of the hole for the mount
determines the alignment change. The strut rod is offset 180 degrees from the paint mark on the
strut bushing. Moving the strut rod inboard or outboard changes camber and moving the strut rod
forward or rearward changes caster. Regardless of the start setting, a 90 degree rotation will only
change one of the settings (caster or camber), and a 180 degree rotation will change both settings
(caster and camber).
ADDITIONAL FRONT CAMBER ADJUSTMENT:
The clearance between the bolts and the holes in the knuckle to strut joint allows front camber
adjustment beyond what the strut mount orientation provides. This additional adjustment can be
used on either of the front wheels to increase or decrease a camber split.
Rotating the upper strut mount is the primary and preferred method to adjust front camber. If
rotating the upper strut mount does not provide enough camber adjustment, perform the following
steps to achieve an approximate camber change of up to +/- 0.24 degrees per side:
1. Lift the vehicle up off its tires.
2. Replace the old strut to knuckle fasteners (bolts and nuts) with new fasteners, but do not torque
the new fasteners.
3. Move the top of the tire inboard or outboard to adjust camber (Figure 4).
a. If more negative camber is desired, push the top of the tire inboard.
b. If less negative camber is desired, pull the top of the tire outboard.
4. With the tire at the desired position, torque the new fasteners to 85 lb-ft (115 N.m).

The indicated compression pressure are considered within specification if the lowest reading
cylinder is within 75% of the highest reading.

Compression Check: Testing and Inspection
Compression Test
General Remarks
NOTE: Removing fuses and disconnecting electrical components causes the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) to log an error message. After the measurements have been carried out this error
message should be cleared from memory by connecting to PDU.
NOTE: Only check the compression pressure with the valves set to the prescribed clearance (if this
can be adjusted).
The compression pressure should be checked with the engine at operating temperature.
Check the Compression Pressure.
WARNING: On manual transmissions shift the transmission into neutral. On automatic
transmission vehicles, select "P". Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
1. Remove the fuel pump relay. 2. Start the engine - the engine will start, run for a few seconds
then stall. 3. Remove the spark plugs. 4. Install the compression tester. 5. Install an auxiliary starter
switch in the starting circuit. With the ignition switch OFF, using the auxiliary starter switch, crank
the engine a
minimum of five compression strokes and record the highest reading. Note the approximate
number of compression strokes required to obtain the highest reading.
6. Repeat the test on each cylinder, cranking the engine approximately the same number of
compression strokes. 7. Install the components in reverse order, observing the specified tightening
torques. 8. Reset the PCM fault memory.
Interpretation of the Results
The indicated compression pressure are considered within specification if the lowest reading
cylinder is within 75% of the highest reading.
CAUTION: If engine oil is sprayed into the combustion chamber, after carrying out the
measurement run the engine at 2000 rpm for about 15 minutes, in order to burn the oil and prevent
damage to the catalytic converter.
If the measurement on one or more cylinders is much lower than the specified value, spray some
engine oil into the combustion chamber and repeat the compression measurement. If the reading
greatly improves, the piston rings are damaged. If the reading stays the same, the cause is either
damaged valve seats or valve stem seals. If the measurements for two cylinders next to each other
are both too low then it is very likely that the cylinder head gasket between them is burnt through.
This can also be recognized by traces of engine oil in the coolant and/or coolant in the engine oil.

Belt Tensioner-Dynamic
Belt Tensioner-Dynamic
The belt tensioner can be checked dynamically as follows: 1. With the engine running, observe the
belt tensioner movement. The belt tensioner should move (respond) when the A/C clutch cycles (if
equipped), or when the engine is accelerated rapidly. If the belt tensioner movement is constant
without A/C clutch cycling or acceleration, a pulley or shaft is probably bent or a pulley is out of
round. In rare cases, excessive drive belt rideout (uneven depth of grooves in drive belt) can cause
excessive drive belt tensioner movement. This condition can be checked by installing a new drive
belt, and repeating the observation.
2. With the engine off, check routing of the drive belt. 3. Inspect the belt tensioner wear indicator to
confirm the drive belt is within operating range. Install a new drive belt if necessary.
Belt Tensioner-Mechanical
Belt Tensioner-Mechanical
The only mechanical check that needs to be made is a check for tensioner stick, grab or bind. 1.
Remove the belt in the area of the tensioner. 2. Rotate the tensioner from its relaxed position
through its full stroke and back to the relaxed position to make sure there is no stick, grab or bind
and to make sure that there is tension on the belt tensioner spring.
3. If the tensioner meets the above criteria, proceed to test the tensioner dynamically. If the
tensioner does not meet the above criteria, install a new
tensioner.

This article supersedes TSB 01-15-6 to update the vehicle model years and Service Procedure.
ISSUE The majority of repeat heater core leaks are due to high flow rate or use of poor quality
coolant. However, electrolysis should also be checked, especially when repeat repairs have
occurred.
ACTION If the heater core is leaking, review the location of the leakage and check the condition of
the coolant.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
1. Review the location of the leakage and check the condition of the coolant:
a. If leaks are found on the inlet (or outlet) tubes entering / exiting the heater core, it is most likely
due to due to high flow rate - replace the
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Hoses > Heater Hose > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins >
Customer Interest for Heater Hose: > 06-21-19 > Oct > 06 > A/C - Heater Core Electrolysis/Leakage > Page 1843
heater core and install a restrictor in the heater hose closest to the engine block, reference
Workshop Manual, Section 412.
b. If leaks are found in the body of the heater core itself, and does not appear to be the result of
physical damage like contact or puncture, check the coolant for possible electrolysis.
Testing For Electrolysis
Check for voltage in the cooling system by touching the negative contact of a voltmeter to the
battery ground or a known good ground and suspend the positive lead in the coolant, making sure
it is in contact with the coolant but not touching any metal part of the radiator or cooling system.
Both AC and DC voltages must be checked. Vehicles normally have DC voltages; however, a faulty
engine block heater or faulty diode in the alternator can produce AC voltages. It is understood that
coolant is lost due to heater core failure but try to obtain a voltage reading on the old coolant in the
engine block before addition to or replacement of. To keep more coolant from exiting the heater
core clamp off heater core lines and measure coolant in the engine block. Try not to dilute the
original coolant with new coolant during testing if possible.
1. Determine whether coolant condition is acceptable.
a. Remove both cables from the battery and ensure they do not contact each other or the vehicle.
b. Touch negative lead of voltmeter to engine ground and positive lead in the coolant.
NOTE
POSITIVE TEST PROBE IS IN THE COOLANT FOR TESTING.
c. Check the voltage in the cooling system. If less than or equal to 0.4 volts (V) OK, reconnect
battery cables and proceed to Step 2.
d. If greater than 0.4 V, flush cooling system thoroughly.
e. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V.
f. Reconnect battery cables.
g. Refill the system with appropriate Motorcraft® engine coolant.
2. Check for loose or missing grounds at static conditions.
a. Turn off all accessories. Turn ignition on but do not start engine.
b. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.
c. Voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V on all grounds OK.
d. Any one greater than 0.4 V, check and clean ground cable connections.
e. Check accessories without using the on off switch on the vehicle instrument panel, use a jumper
wire to ground.
f. Plug in engine block heater, if equipped, and test.
g. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V.
h. Unplug engine block heater, if equipped.
3. Check for loose, missing, or inadequate grounds.
a. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.
b. Crank engine but do not start.
c. Monitor voltage while cranking. less than or equal to 0.4 V OK
d. If greater than 0.4 V, ground or repair starter.
e. Start engine and run at about 2000 rpm.
f. Turn on all accessories including those customer only uses occasionally such as CB radio, cell
phone, etc.
g. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.

h. Voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V OK
i. If greater than 0.4 V, turn off one item at a time until V drops to less than or equal to 0.4 V. Repair
ground to the accessory just identified.
j. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V
k. Turn the DVOM to AC volts.
l. Check for ANY AC voltage greater than 0.4.
m. If any AC voltage is present then try turning off each accessory one at a time including blower
motor and any fan motors.
n. If AC voltage is still present then shut engine off and remove B+ from the alternator and tape it
up then retest.
o. If voltage drop is gradual to less than or equal to 0.4 V, the ground straps may simply be
overloaded by added accessories. Test by using heavy gauge jumper to ground. If indicated, install
heavier gauge ground strap(s) and recheck.
NOTE
If vehicle is equipped with electric cooling fans, be sure they cycle during this testing and monitor
voltage when they are on and when off.
CAUTION
DO NOT GROUND HEATER CORE. IF THE HEATER CORE IS GROUNDED, YOU HAVE
PROVIDED THE ELECTROLOSIS A PATH THROUGH THE HEATER CORE. THIS WOULD
CAUSE THE HEATER CORE TO BECOME AN ANODE OR RECEIVER AND IT WOULD
PROMOTE THE ELECTROLOSIS, OR ANY STRAY VOLTAGE TO USE THE COOLANT AS THE
GROUND PATH.
4. Refill the engine cooling system, reference Workshop Manual, Section 303-03.
NOTE
IF THE HEAT OUTPUT IS INSUFFICIENT, OR THE ENGINE DOES NOT REACH NORMAL
OPERATING TEMPERATURES, VERIFY PROPER THERMOSTAT OPERATION AND REPEAT
PROCEDURE IF REQUIRED.

This article supersedes TSB 01-15-6 to update the vehicle model years and Service Procedure.
ISSUE The majority of repeat heater core leaks are due to high flow rate or use of poor quality
coolant. However, electrolysis should also be checked, especially when repeat repairs have
occurred.
ACTION If the heater core is leaking, review the location of the leakage and check the condition of
the coolant.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
1. Review the location of the leakage and check the condition of the coolant:
a. If leaks are found on the inlet (or outlet) tubes entering / exiting the heater core, it is most likely
due to due to high flow rate - replace the

heater core and install a restrictor in the heater hose closest to the engine block, reference
Workshop Manual, Section 412.
b. If leaks are found in the body of the heater core itself, and does not appear to be the result of
physical damage like contact or puncture, check the coolant for possible electrolysis.
Testing For Electrolysis
Check for voltage in the cooling system by touching the negative contact of a voltmeter to the
battery ground or a known good ground and suspend the positive lead in the coolant, making sure
it is in contact with the coolant but not touching any metal part of the radiator or cooling system.
Both AC and DC voltages must be checked. Vehicles normally have DC voltages; however, a faulty
engine block heater or faulty diode in the alternator can produce AC voltages. It is understood that
coolant is lost due to heater core failure but try to obtain a voltage reading on the old coolant in the
engine block before addition to or replacement of. To keep more coolant from exiting the heater
core clamp off heater core lines and measure coolant in the engine block. Try not to dilute the
original coolant with new coolant during testing if possible.
1. Determine whether coolant condition is acceptable.
a. Remove both cables from the battery and ensure they do not contact each other or the vehicle.
b. Touch negative lead of voltmeter to engine ground and positive lead in the coolant.
NOTE
POSITIVE TEST PROBE IS IN THE COOLANT FOR TESTING.
c. Check the voltage in the cooling system. If less than or equal to 0.4 volts (V) OK, reconnect
battery cables and proceed to Step 2.
d. If greater than 0.4 V, flush cooling system thoroughly.
e. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V.
f. Reconnect battery cables.
g. Refill the system with appropriate Motorcraft® engine coolant.
2. Check for loose or missing grounds at static conditions.
a. Turn off all accessories. Turn ignition on but do not start engine.
b. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.
c. Voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V on all grounds OK.
d. Any one greater than 0.4 V, check and clean ground cable connections.
e. Check accessories without using the on off switch on the vehicle instrument panel, use a jumper
wire to ground.
f. Plug in engine block heater, if equipped, and test.
g. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V.
h. Unplug engine block heater, if equipped.
3. Check for loose, missing, or inadequate grounds.
a. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.
b. Crank engine but do not start.
c. Monitor voltage while cranking. less than or equal to 0.4 V OK
d. If greater than 0.4 V, ground or repair starter.
e. Start engine and run at about 2000 rpm.
f. Turn on all accessories including those customer only uses occasionally such as CB radio, cell
phone, etc.
g. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.

h. Voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V OK
i. If greater than 0.4 V, turn off one item at a time until V drops to less than or equal to 0.4 V. Repair
ground to the accessory just identified.
j. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V
k. Turn the DVOM to AC volts.
l. Check for ANY AC voltage greater than 0.4.
m. If any AC voltage is present then try turning off each accessory one at a time including blower
motor and any fan motors.
n. If AC voltage is still present then shut engine off and remove B+ from the alternator and tape it
up then retest.
o. If voltage drop is gradual to less than or equal to 0.4 V, the ground straps may simply be
overloaded by added accessories. Test by using heavy gauge jumper to ground. If indicated, install
heavier gauge ground strap(s) and recheck.
NOTE
If vehicle is equipped with electric cooling fans, be sure they cycle during this testing and monitor
voltage when they are on and when off.
CAUTION
DO NOT GROUND HEATER CORE. IF THE HEATER CORE IS GROUNDED, YOU HAVE
PROVIDED THE ELECTROLOSIS A PATH THROUGH THE HEATER CORE. THIS WOULD
CAUSE THE HEATER CORE TO BECOME AN ANODE OR RECEIVER AND IT WOULD
PROMOTE THE ELECTROLOSIS, OR ANY STRAY VOLTAGE TO USE THE COOLANT AS THE
GROUND PATH.
4. Refill the engine cooling system, reference Workshop Manual, Section 303-03.
NOTE
IF THE HEAT OUTPUT IS INSUFFICIENT, OR THE ENGINE DOES NOT REACH NORMAL
OPERATING TEMPERATURES, VERIFY PROPER THERMOSTAT OPERATION AND REPEAT
PROCEDURE IF REQUIRED.

ISSUE
A new, extended-life engine coolant, yellow-colored Motorcraft Premium Gold Engine Coolant,
meeting Ford Specification WSS-M97B51-A1, service part numbers VC-7-A and VC-7-C (for use in
the U.S., except California and Oregon) and VC-7-B (for use only in California and Oregon as it
contains a bittering agent), has been equipped in all of the vehicles noted above. The initial-fill life
for this coolant is 100,000 miles/5 years. Due to variations in water quality, the replacement interval
is 50,000 miles/3 years.
ACTION
Any time the addition of coolant or a coolant change-out is required, USE ONLY THE TYPE OF
ENGINE COOLANT WITH WHICH THE VEHICLE WAS ORIGINALLY EQUIPPED. DO NOT MIX
COOLANT TYPES. To determine the type of coolant required, check the color of coolant in the
coolant reservoir of the vehicle or refer to the applicable vehicle's Owner's Guide or Workshop
Manual for service parts and specification information.
SERVICE INFORMATION
Except for heavy-duty vehicles equipped with the Caterpillar 3126E engine, the use of a
supplemental coolant additive (SCA) such as Motorcraft Heavy-Duty Cooling System Additive,
service part number FW-16, is not required in conjunction with this coolant.
Testing is currently underway to determine the backward compatibility of the Motorcraft Premium
Gold Engine Coolant in vehicles equipped with the green-colored Motorcraft Premium Engine
Coolant, service part numbers VC-4-A, VC-4-B, and VC-5. Until the final test results are available,
vehicles should ONLY be serviced with type of coolant with which they were originally equipped.
Please note that Motorcraft Premium Gold Engine Coolant is not compatible with any
orange-colored, extended-life engine coolants such as Motorcraft Specialty Orange Engine
Coolant, service part numbers VC-2 and VC-3. DO NOT MIX COOLANT TYPES. USE ONLY THE
TYPE OF COOLANT WITH WHICH THE VEHICLE WAS EQUIPPED.
Failure to follow these guidelines may result in degradation of corrosion protection and potential
engine damage.
Coolant Discoloration:
The current Motorcraft Cooling System Stop Leak Pellets, service part number VC-6, used in both
Production and Service, cause the yellow-colored Motorcraft Premium Gold Engine Coolant to
change color ranging from a light golden brown to dark brown, depending upon the amount of
pellet

material in the coolant reservoir. This discoloration does not adversely affect the coolant or the
vehicle's cooling system components. No repairs are required for this condition. To avoid confusion
with regard to coolant contamination, a new formulation of stop leak pellets will be implemented in
Production and Service in the near future.

ISSUE This TSB article describes Ford Motor Company's position on the use of propylene
glycol-based engine coolants.

Cooling System - Premium Gold Coolant Service Info > Page 1886
Ford Motor Company does not recommend nor endorse the use of engine coolants made with
propylene glycol in Ford vehicles. Ford Motor Company currently recommends the use of ethylene
glycol-based engine coolants.
Published information suggests that engine coolants made with propylene glycol may provide
engine cooling performance equivalent to engine coolants made with ethylene glycol. However,
different brands of engine coolant provide varying corrosion protection for the cooling system. Ford
does not have performance data for the multitude of engine coolants available in the aftermarket
and therefore cannot recommend the use of any coolant except those sold by Ford Customer
Service Division. Consult the vehicle's Owner's Guide to determine the appropriate Ford Customer
Service Division coolant for the vehicle.
Furthermore, claims of toxicological and environmental advantages of propylene glycol over
ethylene glycol may be misleading. When significant new information is developed, Ford will review
this policy.
Ford Motor Company specifications recommend that vehicles be maintained using certain ethylene
glycol-based engine coolants. Those specifications do not refer to engine coolants made with
propylene glycol. Although the Ford New Vehicle Limited Warranty is not automatically voided upon
the use of a coolant made with propylene glycol, if such use results in damage to the vehicle or its
components, the cost of repairing the damage would not be covered by the Ford New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.

Environmental Impact Information
Refrigerant: Environmental Impact Information
The Ozone Layer A thin layer of ozone molecules, located 10 to 30 miles above the earth, form a
protective cover by absorbing a portion of the ultraviolet (UV) radiation emitted from the Sun.
Ozone Depletion Scientific research performed over the past 15 years links the release of
chlorofluorocarbons (CFC)s, also know by the trade name Freon) into the atmosphere to ozone
depletion. When CFCs are released into the atmosphere, they eventually reach the ozone layer
located in the stratosphere where they react with and destroy ozone molecules.
Harmful Effects Ozone depletion and the corresponding increase in UV radiation has been shown
to lead to higher incidents of cancer as well as global warming. When viewed from a global
perspective, ozone depletion holds an enormous potential for damage.
Upper Level Vs. Ground Level Ozone Confusion often arises when we hear about the necessity of
the ozone layer and ground level ozone. The ozone layer existing high above the earth is beneficial
but the same compound, when located at ground level, is harmful to humans, animals, crops and
vegetation.
Ground level ozone is a component of smog and forms when hydrocarbons (HC) react with
nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the presence of sunlight and heat.
Montreal Protocol In response to the growing body of evidence demonstrating the detrimental
effects of (CFC)s, 24 countries and the European community met in Montreal, Canada, in 1987 to
establish standards for the control of (CFC)s. Since that time, a total of 132 countries have become
signatories to this agreement leading to an end of production of R12 in December, 1995, in all
developed countries.
As established by the Montreal Protocol, R12 production in developed countries has ceased.
Clean Air Act The United States Congress, acting in response to the Montreal Protocol, banned
production of (CFC)s by the year 2000. Congress also amended the Clean Air Act in an effort to
control both the production and use of (CFC)s for refrigerant applications including mobile vehicle
air conditioning systems.

Refrigerant: Vehicle Damage Warnings
CAUTION:
^ Good ventilation is necessary in the area where electronic A/C leak testing is to be carried out. If
the surrounding air is contaminated with refrigerant gas, the leak detector will indicate this gas all
the time. Odors from other chemicals such as antifreeze, diesel fuel, disc brake cleaner, or other
cleaning solvents can cause the same problem. A fan, even in a well-ventilated area, is very helpful
in removing small traces of contamination from the air that might affect the leak detector.
^ If contaminated refrigerant is detected, DO NOT recover the refrigerant into your

Depowering and Repowering Procedure
Depowering Procedure
WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag supplemental restraint system
(SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event
of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: Never probe the connectors on the air bag module. Doing so can result in air bag
deployment, which can result in personal injury.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices.
NOTE: If a seat equipped with a seat mounted side air bag and/or a safety belt pretensioner (if
equipped) system is being serviced, the supplemental restraint system (SRS) must be depowered.
NOTE: The air bag warning lamp illuminates when the RCM fuse is removed and the ignition
switch is ON. This is normal operation and does not indicate a supplemental restraint system
(SRS) fault.
NOTE: The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the
customer.
1. Turn all vehicle accessories OFF.
2. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
3. At the central junction box (CJB), located below the LH side of the instrument panel, remove the
cover and the restraints control module (RCM)
fuse F2.5 (5A) and F2.7 (10A) from the CJB.
4. Turn the ignition ON and visually monitor the air bag indicator for at least 30 seconds. The air
bag indicator will remain lit continuously (no
flashing) if the correct RCM fuse has been removed. If the air bag indicator does not remain lit
continuously, remove the correct RCM fuse before proceeding.
5. Turn the ignition OFF.
6. WARNING: To avoid accidental deployment and possible personal injury, the backup power
supply must be depleted before repairing or
replacing any front or side air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) components and before
servicing, replacing, adjusting or striking components near the front or side air bag sensors, such
as doors, instrument panel, console, door latches, strikers, seats and hood latches. The side
impact sensors (if equipped) are located at or near the base of the B-pillars.
To deplete the backup power supply energy, disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least
one minute. Be sure to disconnect auxiliary batteries and power supplies (if equipped).
Disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least one minute.
Repowering Procedure
1. WARNING: The restraint system diagnostic tool is for restraint system service only. Remove
from vehicle prior to road use. Failure to
remove could result in injury and possible violation of vehicle safety standards.
Make sure all restraint system diagnostic tool(s) that may have been installed during the repair
have been removed from the vehicle and all SRS components are connected.
2. Turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON.
3. Install RCM fuses F2.5 (5A) and F2.7 (10A) to the CJB and close the cover.
4. WARNING: Be sure that nobody is in the vehicle and that there is nothing blocking or set in front
of any air bag module when the
battery ground cable is connected.
Connect the battery ground cable.
5. Prove out the supplemental restraint system (SRS) as follows:
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming > System Information > Service and Repair >
Air Bag Disarming and Arming > Page 2024
Turn the ignition key from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the key back to ON and visually
monitor the air bag indicator with the air bag modules installed. The air bag indicator will light
continuously for approximately six seconds and then turn off. If an air bag supplemental restraint
system (SRS) fault is present, the air bag indicator will either:
- fail to light.
- remain lit continuously.
- flash.
The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been
turned from the OFF to the ON position. This is the time required for the restraints control module
(RCM) to complete the testing of the SRS. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and a SRS fault
exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator
and any SRS fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired.
Clear all continuous DTCs from the restraints control module using a scan tool.
Seats Removed
There are two deactivation procedures.
^ One procedure requires removal of the front seats. This procedure will be used when diagnosing
or repairing a seat side air bag concern. This procedure will also be used when diagnosing or
repairing any in-seat or seat-mounted component of a seat equipped with a seat side air bag. The
seat must be removed when performing repairs on a seat equipped with a seat side air bag.
^ The other procedure does not require front seat removal during the diagnostic and repair
process. This procedure will be used when diagnosing or repairing a concern that is not related to a
seat equipped with a seat side air bag.
WARNING: IF THE SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) IS BEING SERVICED, THE
SYSTEM MUST BE DEACTIVATED AND RESTRAINT SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS MUST BE
INSTALLED.
THE AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS MUST BE REMOVED AND THE AIR
BAG MODULES RECONNECTED WHEN THE SYSTEM IS REACTIVATED TO AVOID
NON-DEPLOYMENT IN A COLLISION, RESULTING IN POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.
NOTE:
^ Diagnostics or repairs are not to be performed on a seat equipped with a seat side air bag with
the seat in the vehicle. Prior to attempting to diagnose or repair a seat concern when equipped with
a seat side air bag, the seat must be removed from the vehicle and the restraint system diagnostic
tools must be installed in the seat side air bag electrical connectors. The restraint system
diagnostic tools must be removed prior to operating the vehicle over the road.
^ After diagnosing or repairing an SRS, the restraint system diagnostic tools must be removed
before operating the vehicle over the road.
^ After diagnosing or repairing a seat system, the restraint system diagnostic tools must be
removed before operating the vehicle over the road.
^ The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.

Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming: Service and Repair Prove Out Procedure
Turn the ignition switch from the OFF to the RUN position and visually monitor the air bag indicator
with the air bag modules or restraint system diagnostic tools installed. The air bag indicator will light
continuously for approximately six seconds and then turn off. If an air bag Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS) fault is present, the air bag indicator will either:
^ fail to light.
^ remain lit continuously.
^ flash.
The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been
turned from the OFF to the RUN position. This is the time required for the Restraints Control
Module (RCM) to complete the testing of the SRS. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and an
SRS fault exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air bag
indicator will need to be repaired before diagnosis can continue.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2041
Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse/Locations and Relay/Locations contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses and
relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams show the current feed circuit. The current path is shown
from the battery to the ignition switch and to all fuses. It also shows the circuits protected by each
fuse. The circuit is traced from the fuse to the component. All details (wires, splices, connectors)
between the fuse and the first component are shown.
Ground Distribution

Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contain the diagrams that show the complete details for
each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
WARNINGS
^ Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
^ Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires being under a vehicle.
^ Be sure that the Ignition Switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the
procedure.
^ Set the parking brake when working on any vehicle. An automatic transmission should be in

Malfunction Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
Check Engine, Service Engine Soon Or ISO Standard Engine Symbol
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) (Figure 15) alerts the driver that the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) has detected an On Board Diagnostic (OBD) II emission-related component or
system fault. When this occurs, an OBD II Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be set.
^ The MIL is located on the instrument cluster and is labeled CHECK ENGINE, SERVICE ENGINE
SOON or ISO standard engine symbol (Figure 16).
^ Power is supplied to the MIL whenever the ignition switch is in the RUN or START position.
^ The MIL will remain on in the RUN/START mode as a bulb check during the instrument cluster
proveout for approximately 4 seconds.
^ If the MIL remains on after the bulb check: The PCM illuminates the MIL for an emission related concern and a DTC will be present.
- The instrument cluster will illuminate the MIL if the PCM does not send a control message to the
instrument cluster.
- The PCM is operating in the Hardware Limited Operation Strategy (HLOS).
- The MIL circuit is shorted to ground.
^ If the MIL remains off (during the bulb check); Bulb is damaged.
- MIL circuit is open.
^ To turn off the MIL after a repair, a reset command from the Scan Tool must be sent, or three
consecutive drive cycles must be completed without a fault.
^ For any MIL concern, go to Symptom Charts. See: Powertrain Management/Computers and
Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes/Reading
Diagnostic Trouble Codes/Performance Diagnostic Procedures/Quick Test
^ If the MIL blinks at a steady rate, a severe misfire condition could possibly exist.
^ If the MIL blinks erratically, an intermittent open B+ to the bulb or an intermittent short to ground
in the MIL circuit exist. Also, the PCM can reset while cranking if battery voltage is low.

ISSUE The purpose of this bulletin is to provide guidance when using tire/wheel assembly road
force measurement equipment such as the Hunter GSP97OO. This bulletin is authored and
endorsed by Hunter, Michelin, Goodyear, Continental/General, Hankook, Bridgestone/Firestone
and Pirelli. Items addressed are software upgrades, road test (exercise tires), assembly center
verification and warranty restrictions.
This type of equipment can be a valuable tool to improve customer satisfaction when used as a
vibration repair tool. This type of equipment can also provide a high level of customer satisfaction
when used as an assembly too! when the customer has purchased new wheels/tires in the
"Around-the-Wheel" program.
ACTION The Hunter GSP9700/9712 road force measurement tool is NOT to be used for
determining if a tire or wheel meets a specification. It can be used as a service diagnostic tool to
minimize road force variation of the tire/wheel assembly. The tool such as the Hunter GSP97OO
can approximate the low point of the "'1heel and the high point of the tire. This allows the tire to be
matched mounted to the wheel for lowest tire/wheel assembly road force variation. This will
minimize the contribution to vibration from the tire/wheel assembly.

THE VEHICLE'S TIRES ARE NOT EXERCISED FIRST, ACCURACY OF THE ROAD FORCE
MEASUREMENTS CAN VARY SIGNIFICANTLY, EVEN IF THE VEHICLE IS PARKED/STORED
IN ONE LOCATION FOR ONLY A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME (E.G. 20 MINUTES).
3. Perform the road force measurement IMMEDIATELY after exercising the tires. If the road force
measurement cannot be performed immediately, lift all four tires off the ground with a hoist or jack
stands to prevent measurement errors due to further flat spotting.
4. Assembly centering verification MUST be performed and PASSED prior to any road force
measurement.
For those with a software version other than 2.1 the centering verification must be performed
manually.
a. Spin assembly to measure. Record the assembly R1H.
b. Loosen wing-nut.
c. Rotate and reposition assembly and cone/adapter to a different mounting location (180 degrees).
d. Tighten wing-nut.
e. Re-spin to measure. Record the assembly R1H.
f. Compare results obtained in STEP a with those obtained in STEP e.
g. If the difference in assembly R1H measurements is less than 5 lbs., the assembly centering
verification PASSES and technician can proceed to the measurement/repair process. If the
centering verification FAILS proceed to STEP h.
h. The following items may contribute to an assembly centering verification FAILURE.
^ Cone/adapter does not fit properly or is incorrect for the application
^ The wheel mounting surface is damaged
5. For those with software version 2.1 the following procedure will lead the technician through a
Centering Check.
a. From the balance mode screen press the center SHIFT KEY ONCE (i.e. has two green arrows).
b. Push the "K1" button to select Perform Centering Check.
c. Follow the instructions.
d. If Centering Check PASSES proceed to the measurement/repair process. If the Centering Check
fails proceed to step e.

ISSUE
Under normal operating conditions, customers may notice accumulation of brake dust on their
wheels. Some brake dust is inevitable as brakes wear and does not contribute to brake noise. The
use of modern friction materials with emphasis on improved performance and environmental
considerations can lead to more dust than in the past.
ACTION
Brake dust can be cleaned by weekly washing with Motorcraft Detail Wash (ZC-3-A) and a soft
sponge. Heavier deposits can be removed with Motorcraft Wheel and Tire Cleaner (ZC-37-A).

ISSUE The purpose of this bulletin is to provide guidance when using tire/wheel assembly road
force measurement equipment such as the Hunter GSP97OO. This bulletin is authored and
endorsed by Hunter, Michelin, Goodyear, Continental/General, Hankook, Bridgestone/Firestone
and Pirelli. Items addressed are software upgrades, road test (exercise tires), assembly center
verification and warranty restrictions.
This type of equipment can be a valuable tool to improve customer satisfaction when used as a
vibration repair tool. This type of equipment can also provide a high level of customer satisfaction
when used as an assembly too! when the customer has purchased new wheels/tires in the
"Around-the-Wheel" program.
ACTION The Hunter GSP9700/9712 road force measurement tool is NOT to be used for
determining if a tire or wheel meets a specification. It can be used as a service diagnostic tool to
minimize road force variation of the tire/wheel assembly. The tool such as the Hunter GSP97OO
can approximate the low point of the "'1heel and the high point of the tire. This allows the tire to be
matched mounted to the wheel for lowest tire/wheel assembly road force variation. This will
minimize the contribution to vibration from the tire/wheel assembly.

Variable Valve Timing Solenoid: Description and Operation Variable Cam Timing System
Overview
The Variable Cam Timing System allows the exhaust cam to advance and retard at varying engine
speeds. The purpose of this is to reduce exhaust emissions and increase fuel economy. As the
exhaust cam retards in relation to the crankshaft position, residual exhaust gases are left in the
combustion chamber. The residual gases cool the combustion chamber and are inert when mixed
with the incoming fresh charge of fuel and air. This results in better fuel economy and lower
Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) and Hydrocarbons (HC) the engine produces. The Exhaust Gas
Recalculation System (EGR) is unnecessary on the 2.0L (4V) engine due to this feature.
Variable Cam Timing
Variable Cam Timing System
The Variable Cam Timing (VCT) System consists of the control solenoid, five-tooth pulse ring (4+1)
on exhaust camshaft, Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor, Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT)
sensor, Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor, Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor, Crankshaft Position (CKP)
sensor, Powertrain Control Module (PCM) (Figure 127).
1. The powertrain control module (PCM) receives input signals from the intake air temperature
(IAT) sensor, engine coolant temperature (ECT)
sensor, camshaft position (CMP) sensor, mass air flow (MAF) sensor and crankshaft position
(CKP) sensor for determining the operating conditions of the engine.
2. The Variable Cam Timing (VCT) system is enabled by the PCM when the proper conditions are
met. The PCM disables the VCT system if a
fault is detected.
3. The PCM calculates relative cam position using the CMP sensor and data from the (4+1) pulse
ring mounted on the exhaust camshaft. Relative
cam position is calculated by measuring the time between the rising edge of Profile Ignition Pickup
(PIP) and the falling edge of VCT pulse.
4. The PCM continually calculates a cam position error value based on the difference between the
desired and actual position and a duty cycle is
commanded for the VCT solenoid valve. Engine oil is allowed to flow to the VCT unit.
5. Oil flows to either side of the piston chamber changing a linear motion from the piston to a
rotation motion from the helical mechanism in the
VCT unit. During closed loop the PCM outputs a revised duty cycle to the VCT solenoid valve to
correct for cam position error.

Timing Solenoid > Component Information > Description and Operation > Variable Cam Timing System > Page 2203
Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Solenoid Valve
The VCT solenoid valve (Figure 128) is an integral part of the VCT system. The solenoid valve
controls the flow of engine oil to the variable cam timing unit assembly. As the PCM duty cycles the
solenoid valve, oil is allowed to flow to the VCT unit assembly and advance or retard the cam
timing.
Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Unit Assembly
Variable Cam Timing Unit Assembly
The variable cam timing unit assembly (Figure 129) is coupled to the camshaft through a helical
spline in the VCT unit chamber. When the flow of oil is shifted from one side of the chamber to the
other, the differential change in oil pressure forces the piston to move linearly along the axis of the
camshaft. This linear motion is translated into rotational camshaft motion through the helical spline
coupling. A spring installed in the chamber is designed to hold the camshaft in the minimum
overlap position (5 degrees) when oil pressure is too low to maintain adequate position control. The
camshaft is allowed to rotate up to 30 degrees.

Variable Valve Timing Solenoid: Description and Operation Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Unit
Assembly
Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Unit Assembly
Variable Cam Timing Unit Assembly
The variable cam timing unit assembly (Figure 129) is coupled to the camshaft through a helical
spline in the VCT unit chamber. When the flow of oil is shifted from one side of the chamber to the
other, the differential change in oil pressure forces the piston to move linearly along the axis of the
camshaft. This linear motion is translated into rotational camshaft motion through the helical spline
coupling. A spring installed in the chamber is designed to hold the camshaft in the minimum
overlap position (5 degrees) when oil pressure is too low to maintain adequate position control. The
camshaft is allowed to rotate up to 30 degrees.

The indicated compression pressure are considered within specification if the lowest reading
cylinder is within 75% of the highest reading.

Compression Check: Testing and Inspection
Compression Test
General Remarks
NOTE: Removing fuses and disconnecting electrical components causes the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) to log an error message. After the measurements have been carried out this error
message should be cleared from memory by connecting to PDU.
NOTE: Only check the compression pressure with the valves set to the prescribed clearance (if this
can be adjusted).
The compression pressure should be checked with the engine at operating temperature.
Check the Compression Pressure.
WARNING: On manual transmissions shift the transmission into neutral. On automatic
transmission vehicles, select "P". Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
1. Remove the fuel pump relay. 2. Start the engine - the engine will start, run for a few seconds
then stall. 3. Remove the spark plugs. 4. Install the compression tester. 5. Install an auxiliary starter
switch in the starting circuit. With the ignition switch OFF, using the auxiliary starter switch, crank
the engine a
minimum of five compression strokes and record the highest reading. Note the approximate
number of compression strokes required to obtain the highest reading.
6. Repeat the test on each cylinder, cranking the engine approximately the same number of
compression strokes. 7. Install the components in reverse order, observing the specified tightening
torques. 8. Reset the PCM fault memory.
Interpretation of the Results
The indicated compression pressure are considered within specification if the lowest reading
cylinder is within 75% of the highest reading.
CAUTION: If engine oil is sprayed into the combustion chamber, after carrying out the
measurement run the engine at 2000 rpm for about 15 minutes, in order to burn the oil and prevent
damage to the catalytic converter.
If the measurement on one or more cylinders is much lower than the specified value, spray some
engine oil into the combustion chamber and repeat the compression measurement. If the reading
greatly improves, the piston rings are damaged. If the reading stays the same, the cause is either
damaged valve seats or valve stem seals. If the measurements for two cylinders next to each other
are both too low then it is very likely that the cylinder head gasket between them is burnt through.
This can also be recognized by traces of engine oil in the coolant and/or coolant in the engine oil.

Belt Tensioner-Dynamic
Belt Tensioner-Dynamic
The belt tensioner can be checked dynamically as follows: 1. With the engine running, observe the
belt tensioner movement. The belt tensioner should move (respond) when the A/C clutch cycles (if
equipped), or when the engine is accelerated rapidly. If the belt tensioner movement is constant
without A/C clutch cycling or acceleration, a pulley or shaft is probably bent or a pulley is out of
round. In rare cases, excessive drive belt rideout (uneven depth of grooves in drive belt) can cause
excessive drive belt tensioner movement. This condition can be checked by installing a new drive
belt, and repeating the observation.
2. With the engine off, check routing of the drive belt. 3. Inspect the belt tensioner wear indicator to
confirm the drive belt is within operating range. Install a new drive belt if necessary.
Belt Tensioner-Mechanical
Belt Tensioner-Mechanical
The only mechanical check that needs to be made is a check for tensioner stick, grab or bind. 1.
Remove the belt in the area of the tensioner. 2. Rotate the tensioner from its relaxed position
through its full stroke and back to the relaxed position to make sure there is no stick, grab or bind
and to make sure that there is tension on the belt tensioner spring.
3. If the tensioner meets the above criteria, proceed to test the tensioner dynamically. If the
tensioner does not meet the above criteria, install a new
tensioner.

ISSUE Reports from the field indicate incorrect or low engine oil levels are being found at
Pre-Delivery Inspection on new vehicles received in dealer inventory. In most cases, the level is
being misinterpreted because the fluid fill mark on the stick is not touching the top hash mark at the
upper limit (or MAX mark), or is partway down the crosshatch area.
ACTION Ford is in the process of standardizing the markings across all vehicle lines. Current
markings shown will be upgraded to a refined marking, shown in Figure 1. Both markings will be
used in production over the next few years. Oil levels will still be recorded in the crosshatched area
of the blade, between the upper and lower limit holes. Vehicles shipped with engine oil levels falling
within this area are acceptable and do not require topping off. Oil fill quantities are precisely
measured at the plants and account for slight variations that may occur in oil pan volumes,
indicator length, and pressed-in locations of the indicator tube into the block. For customer use, the
markings continue to serve as a guide to refilling the engine to the correct initial fill volume with
filter or, to top off the engine when it is determined the level is below the lower hole.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Engine > Engine Lubrication > Engine Oil Dip Stick - Dip Stick
Tube > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Engine - Oil Level Indicator Markings > Page 2334
SERVICE INFORMATION
Ensure the vehicle is sitting on level ground. Set the park brake and ensure the transmission
selector lever is in PARK position, or in FIRST gear on manuals. The engine must be OFF.
The best time for determining oil level is before the engine is started and the oil has had sufficient
drainback time to the sump. If the engine has been running, allow it to sit for a few minutes turned
off. An oil drainback period is required before taking an initial reading.
If the level falls below the lower hole, fill with one quart of oil. If one quart is insufficient to raise the
level above the mark, add oil until it records within the crosshatch area. Use caution during this
procedure as some time is needed for oil to drain down through the drainback passages in the
cylinder head, to the oil pan. Adding oil a quart at a time repeatedly without sufficient drainback
may overfill the sump.
If the oil level falls between the upper and lower hole do not add more oil. Adding an extra quart
could cause overfilling and may result in aeration (foaming) causing eventual damage to vital
bearing surfaces and moving parts inside. Overfilling will require some oil to be drained out until the
indicator shows the level between the upper and lower holes of the blade. DO NOT expect the
engine to 'consume" the extra oil back down to the upper oil till level hole, or consider it as extra
lubrication protection for the engine.

ISSUE On various vehicles when servicing the head gasket on certain Ford remanufactured
engines, it is critical to determine the type of remanufactured engine that is being serviced, in order
to identify the correct replacement gasket.
ACTION Follow the Service Procedure to help identify if the vehicle is equipped with a SID (for
originally equipment level thickness head gasket) or OVR (for oversized service level thicker head
gasket) remanufactured engine when replacing a head gasket.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
Use this TSB to help identify if the vehicle is equipped with a STD or OVR remanufactured engine
when replacing a head gasket. This will ensure that you obtain the proper head gasket (thicker for
OVR-oversized) for the engine you are repairing, as the engine may have milled engine block deck,
milled cylinder head deck, or an over sized bore in the cylinders. This information will be needed
when ordering parts. The parts catalogs already reflect the correct service numbers, as long as this
additional information is available.

ISSUE Some engine assemblies with aluminum cylinder heads repaired in-vehicle have been
found to leak coolant and/or oil from the cylinder head gasket area due to particle contamination or
scratches and dents at the head to block mating surfaces.
ACTION Refer to the following Service Information for recommended gasket sealing surface
preparation procedures. If the engine diagnosis points to a faulty head gasket (leaks oil, leaks
coolant, oil or coolant contamination, or air in coolant), thorough cleaning procedures are
necessary for a successful head gasket repair. Diagnosis and post-repair confirmation can be done
successfully utilizing leak detection methods such as a black light dye process.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
To sum up, a successful leak repair depends on:
^ Accurate diagnosis of the leak using Ford-recommended test equipment and procedures
^ Surface preparation and gasket installation using the approved tools, cleaners, and methods
^ Exercising CARE and CLEANLINESS during disassembly/assembly of components
^ Use of genuine Ford OEM replacement parts
^ Use of a Ford Remanufacturer

WARNING
ALUMINUM CYLINDER HEADS ARE HIGHLY POLISHED AND MUST BE HANDLED WITH
EXTREME CARE. AFTER REMOVING THE HEAD BOLTS, WITHDRAW THE HEAD FROM THE
ENGINE COMPARTMENT. USE EXTREME CARE NOTING THAT THE GASKET SURFACE OF
THE HEAD COULD BE DAMAGED ON THE WAY OUT OF THE VEHICLE IF ALLOWED TO HIT
AGAINST OTHER ENGINE COMPONENTS. ONCE REMOVED, PLACE THE HEAD ON A
BENCH, GASKET SIDE UP, USING A PIECE OF CLEAN CARDBOARD ON THE BENCH
SURFACE UNDERNEATH. DO NOT SLIDE THE HEAD GASKET SURFACE ALONG THE
BENCHTOP OR DAMAGE WILL OCCUR.
NOTE
SOME ENGINES REQUIRE A "DE-TORQUING" PROCEDURE OF THE CYLINDER HEAD
BOLTS. CONSULT WITH THE APPROPRIATE MODEL YEAR WORKSHOP MANUAL FIRST, AS
THIS PROCEDURE IS USUALLY DONE ON FOUR-VALVE ENGINES. HOWEVER, ALL
ALUMINUM HEADS ARE PRONE TO WARPAGE DURING REMOVAL IF TAKEN OFF WHEN
HOT OR WARM. THE ENGINE SHOULD BE COOLED SUFFICIENTLY BY THE TIME THE
HEADS ARE ACCESSIBLE DURING TEARDOWN. ALLOW AN ADEQUATE COOL DOWN
PERIOD.
NOTE
IN SOME ENGINE APPLICATIONS, IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO "RUBBER BAND" A FEW OF
THE HEAD BOLTS TOGETHER DUE TO TIGHT CLEARANCES OF THE HEAD NEAR
HEATER/AC PLENUMS AND THE BODY COWL. THIS WILL ALLOW THE BOLTS TO CLEAR
THE BLOCK DECK AS THE HEAD IS WITHDRAWN FROM THE VEHICLE.
Place CLEAN shop towels over the cylinder block bores to prevent further contamination from
reaching internal parts and surfaces. If a towel is to be removed, do it SLOWLY . Debris collected
on the towel can fall on the engine if care is not exercised as it is removed.
Gasket surfaces are machined to near-mirror surface quality. Scratches, dents, gouges, and other
impressions may allow oil, coolant, and compression gases to leak into other sealed cavities and/or
the atmosphere. Surface imperfections deteriorate the head gasket's ability to seal effectively.
Contamination on these surfaces will cause leaks from "shimming" the head even under full head
bolt torque. Contamination will also cause marks on the polished gasket surface, creating a leak

Inspection For Damage and Cleaning Procedure
The overall straightness of the cylinder head and block face is held within very tight specification.
Defects known as "waviness" or "depressions" cannot be surface machined out with ordinary
equipment. Machining must meet manufacturer's specification on surface finish quality and be less
than 0.001" inch (0.025 mm) level as measured under a known quality straightedge using a feeler
gauge. If the engine has been overheated the cylinder head may have been damaged or warped.
Re-surfacing will not correct this damage.
The head must not contain any impressions on its sealing surface deeper than 0.001" (0.025 mm).
There must not be any scratches or gouges present, especially those which track to another
sealing cavity or to the atmosphere.
Ensure that the mating cylinder block surface is completely free of solid contamination, corrosion,
and fluids. Use Motorcraft Metal Surface Cleaner, F4AZ-19A536-RA or equivalent, to rid the
surface of any material, which could later interfere with the gasket's sealing ability.
WARNING
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ARE ANY ALUMINUM GASKET SURFACES TO BE CLEANED
USING RAZOR BLADES, ROTARY ABRASIVE DEVICES INCLUDING ROLOC AND 3M
BRANDED SCOTCHBRITE PRODUCTS, ROTARY WIRE BRUSHES, SINGLE HANDLED WIRE
BRUSHES, HAND ABRASIVE SUCH AS SANDPAPER OR EMERY CLOTH, OR ANY CARBON
STEEL BLADE. THESE TOOLS ARE PROVEN TO CUT AND DAMAGE ALUMINUM AND WILL
DISRUPT THE POLISHED FINISH. ABRASIVE PARTICLES ARE ALSO SUSCEPTIBLE TO
ENTERING THE ENGINE CAVITIES AND MAY CAUSE INTERNAL ENGINE DAMAGE. THE
ONLY TOOLS ACCEPTABLE ARE PLASTIC AND WOOD SCRAPERS COMBINED WITH USE
OF MOTORCRAFT METAL SURFACE CLEANER, F4AZ-19A536-RA, OR EQUIVALENT
SOLVENT.
The original head bolts are to be discarded. Only new head bolts are acceptable for use in a head
gasket repair. Use of old bolts can cause clamp load failure because they were stretched from the
last torquing procedure either from the plant or a previous field repair. The new head bolt shanks
and threads should be thoroughly cleaned, dried, and lightly lubricated. Oil the bolts and let oil drip
for a minimum of 5 minutes. Use of too much oil may cause hydraulic lockup in the bolt hole.
The corresponding bolt holes in the cylinder block must be free of contamination consisting of dirt
particles, coolant, and oil. Bolts can mechanically or hydraulically lock on top of these materials and
cause for poor clamping of the cylinder head gasket. Use very lightly compressed air to blow out
the bolt holes. Use care to prevent debris from scattering over the internal engine surfaces.
To clean the cylinder block gasket surface, a plastic or wood scraper in combination with Motorcraft
Metal Surface Cleaner, F4AZ-19A536-RA, or equivalent solvent can be used with a portable shop
vacuum. Move the scraper toward the vacuum nozzle to direct loosened material quickly away from
the block surface.
It is not necessary to expect aluminum head surfaces to be shiny and bright after the vehicle has
been in service. Sanding, scraping, or polishing will create surface depressions that cause leaks.
The surface is expected to be flat within 0.001" (0.025 mm) and free of dirt, metal chips, and liquid
contaminants. Any staining of the metal surface is considered normal.

Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Engine - Reman Engine Head Gasket Identification > Page 2398
Machining of aluminum heads and blocks is an unacceptable field practice for quality control
purposes of flatness and surface finish standards. Removing material will also raise the risk of
internal reciprocating components striking each other, as well as changing the emissions
calibration of the engine. Machining practices of aluminum blocks and heads are not reimbursable.
Ford Remanufacturers are authorized to perform this procedure and have the necessary
equipment to put the specified surface finish on the head within original factory limits.
Installation Onto the Cylinder Block Surface
WARNING
ANY GASKET SEALING AIDS WHICH ARE NOT LIMITED TO, AND INCLUDE AVIATION
CEMENT, COPPER SPRAYS, OR GLUES ARE NOT TO BE USED. THE GASKET MUST BE
FITTED DRY WITHOUT SUPPLEMENTAL SEALING AIDS. ATTEMPTS TO SEAL WITH THESE
COMPOUNDS WILL CAUSE HEAD SHIMMING AND/OR NEW LEAK PATHS. THESE
COMPOUNDS HAVE ALSO BEEN KNOWN TO CAUSE EMISSIONS SENSORS TO FAIL
THEREBY TRIPPING FAULT CODES IN THE PCM.
Ensure that all surfaces of the cylinder block, cylinder head, and gasket are fully free of any solid or
liquid contamination and have been prepared for assembly using Motorcraft Metal Surface Cleaner,
F4AZ-19A536-RA, or equivalent solvent. Also ensure that any residual dirt on the engine was
removed successfully from the surrounding areas of the block to head face of the head and the
block.
Using Workshop Manual procedures, assemble the head to the block carefully. Do not allow the
gasket surfaces to scrape or bang against other engine parts. The head may pick up material along
the way, if this is allowed. Once in place, with dowels properly aligned to the head and ensuring
that the head is fully square, seated, and resting on the block deck in a level condition, install new
"torque-to-yield" cylinder head bolts to a finger tight condition. Refer to the appropriate model year
Workshop Manual for the procedure to torque the head bolts in the correct sequence and at the
intervals specified. Failure to follow these instructions may result in a warped head, and damaged
head bolt threads.
Do not use "cheater pipes" on torque wrenches. Use a known quality, calibrated torque wrench.
Pull evenly and steady on each bolt. Do not exert side pressures on the bolt hex, which can disrupt
the integrity of the bolt head and give a false reading on the final torque value of the fastener.
Once the engine is fully reassembled, be sure that fluid levels have been topped off as required for
the operation. When the engine is ready for starting, ensure that the engine 6i1 pump is (was)
primed properly and is in a "ready to start" condition with all engine oil galleys having been charged
with oil.
WARNING
DO NOT RACE THE ENGINE UPON INITIAL STARTUP. MAINTAIN ENGINE IDLE TO BUILD OIL
PRESSURE. USE OF A MECHANICAL PRESSURE GAUGE WILL ENSURE THAT OIL FLOW
HAS DEVELOPED ON THE PUMP'S PRESSURE SIDE. A DEFECTIVE GAUGE OR LIGHT IN
THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WILL NOT VERIFY PRESSURE HAS BEEN OBTAINED. SEVERE
INTERNAL ENGINE DAMAGE WILL RESULT IF PRESSURE IS NOT OBSERVED AND
STEADILY MAINTAINED.
Allow a warm up period, which brings the engine to normal operating temperature. Check for leaks
around the gasket joints of the head, front cover, and associated component parts. The vehicle
should be road tested within normal guidelines to raise the engine to operating temperature and
verify the repair is sound.
Shut down the engine, allow for a cool-down and drain-back period to enable fluids to return to
levels. Check fluid levels using owner guide recommendations (dipstick, sight gages, etc.).

Variable Valve Timing Solenoid: Description and Operation Variable Cam Timing System
Overview
The Variable Cam Timing System allows the exhaust cam to advance and retard at varying engine
speeds. The purpose of this is to reduce exhaust emissions and increase fuel economy. As the
exhaust cam retards in relation to the crankshaft position, residual exhaust gases are left in the
combustion chamber. The residual gases cool the combustion chamber and are inert when mixed
with the incoming fresh charge of fuel and air. This results in better fuel economy and lower
Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) and Hydrocarbons (HC) the engine produces. The Exhaust Gas
Recalculation System (EGR) is unnecessary on the 2.0L (4V) engine due to this feature.
Variable Cam Timing
Variable Cam Timing System
The Variable Cam Timing (VCT) System consists of the control solenoid, five-tooth pulse ring (4+1)
on exhaust camshaft, Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor, Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT)
sensor, Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor, Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor, Crankshaft Position (CKP)
sensor, Powertrain Control Module (PCM) (Figure 127).
1. The powertrain control module (PCM) receives input signals from the intake air temperature
(IAT) sensor, engine coolant temperature (ECT)
sensor, camshaft position (CMP) sensor, mass air flow (MAF) sensor and crankshaft position
(CKP) sensor for determining the operating conditions of the engine.
2. The Variable Cam Timing (VCT) system is enabled by the PCM when the proper conditions are
met. The PCM disables the VCT system if a
fault is detected.
3. The PCM calculates relative cam position using the CMP sensor and data from the (4+1) pulse
ring mounted on the exhaust camshaft. Relative
cam position is calculated by measuring the time between the rising edge of Profile Ignition Pickup
(PIP) and the falling edge of VCT pulse.
4. The PCM continually calculates a cam position error value based on the difference between the
desired and actual position and a duty cycle is
commanded for the VCT solenoid valve. Engine oil is allowed to flow to the VCT unit.
5. Oil flows to either side of the piston chamber changing a linear motion from the piston to a
rotation motion from the helical mechanism in the
VCT unit. During closed loop the PCM outputs a revised duty cycle to the VCT solenoid valve to
correct for cam position error.

Page 2434
Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Solenoid Valve
The VCT solenoid valve (Figure 128) is an integral part of the VCT system. The solenoid valve
controls the flow of engine oil to the variable cam timing unit assembly. As the PCM duty cycles the
solenoid valve, oil is allowed to flow to the VCT unit assembly and advance or retard the cam
timing.
Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Unit Assembly
Variable Cam Timing Unit Assembly
The variable cam timing unit assembly (Figure 129) is coupled to the camshaft through a helical
spline in the VCT unit chamber. When the flow of oil is shifted from one side of the chamber to the
other, the differential change in oil pressure forces the piston to move linearly along the axis of the
camshaft. This linear motion is translated into rotational camshaft motion through the helical spline
coupling. A spring installed in the chamber is designed to hold the camshaft in the minimum
overlap position (5 degrees) when oil pressure is too low to maintain adequate position control. The
camshaft is allowed to rotate up to 30 degrees.

transmission vehicles, select "P". Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
1. Remove the fuel pump relay. 2. Start the engine - the engine will start, run for a few seconds
then stall. 3. Remove the spark plugs. 4. Install the compression tester. 5. Install an auxiliary starter
switch in the starting circuit. With the ignition switch OFF, using the auxiliary starter switch, crank
the engine a
minimum of five compression strokes and record the highest reading. Note the approximate
number of compression strokes required to obtain the highest reading.
6. Repeat the test on each cylinder, cranking the engine approximately the same number of
compression strokes. 7. Install the components in reverse order, observing the specified tightening
torques. 8. Reset the PCM fault memory.
Interpretation of the Results
The indicated compression pressure are considered within specification if the lowest reading
cylinder is within 75% of the highest reading.
CAUTION: If engine oil is sprayed into the combustion chamber, after carrying out the
measurement run the engine at 2000 rpm for about 15 minutes, in order to burn the oil and prevent
damage to the catalytic converter.
If the measurement on one or more cylinders is much lower than the specified value, spray some
engine oil into the combustion chamber and repeat the compression measurement. If the reading
greatly improves, the piston rings are damaged. If the reading stays the same, the cause is either
damaged valve seats or valve stem seals. If the measurements for two cylinders next to each other
are both too low then it is very likely that the cylinder head gasket between them is burnt through.
This can also be recognized by traces of engine oil in the coolant and/or coolant in the engine oil.

Hydraulic Cooling Fan Solenoid Valve: Description and Operation PCM Outputs
Visctronic Drive Fan (VDF)
Visctronic Drive Fan (VDF)
Visctronic Drive Fan (VDF) Clutch
The primary purpose for the Visctronic Drive Fan (VDF) clutch is to optimize fan energy (i.e.
improved fuel economy) while meeting cooling performance requirements. Successful optimization
will also minimize objectionable fan noise. The operation is similar to the existing viscous fan
clutch, except viscous fluid flow is controlled by a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) solenoid versus a
bi-metal temperature sensor on the front of the clutch.
The VDF consists of three main elements, a working chamber, a reservoir chamber, and a Fan
Speed Sensor (FANSS). A fluid port valve controls fluid flow from the reservoir into the working
chamber. Once viscous fluid is in the working chamber, "shearing" of the fan clutch fluid will result
in fan rotation. The valve is activated via a pulse width modulated (PWM) output signal from the
PCM. By opening and closing the fluid port valve, the PCM can control approximate fan speed. Fan
speed is monitored via a Hall-Effect sensor and is read by the PCM for closed loop operation.
The PCM will optimize the VDF fan speed based upon CHT, TFT, or AT cooling requirements.
When either of these inputs is demanding increased fan speed for vehicle cooling, the PCM will
monitor the Hall Effect Fan Speed Sensor (FANSS), and output the resultant PWM signal to the
fluid port valve thus controlling to the required fan speed.

cooling fan needs. The PCM controls the fan operation through the Fan Control (FC) (single speed
fan applications), Low Fan Control (LFC), Medium Fan Control (MFC) and/or High Fan Control
(HFC) outputs.
Although the PCM output circuits for three speed tans are called low, medium and high fan control
(FC), cooling fan speed is controlled by a combination of these outputs. Refer to the table.
Hydraulic Cooling Fan Drive
Hydraulic Cooling Fan Drive
Hydraulic Cooling Fan Pump With Integral Solenoid
The system consists of an engine-driven pump with an integral solenoid (Figure 49) on the pump
that is triggered by the powertrain control module (PCM). Fan speed is controlled by adjusting
current to the solenoid, which then changes the fluid flow to the hydraulic motor. More current
means the solenoid opens up, allowing higher pressure to increase the fan speed. The fan always
turns due to solenoid current leakage, even in cold engine cases. The motor is driven by the pump.
It contains a shaft on which the fan mounts. The motor also contains quick connect fittings for the
high pressure lines. The cooler is similar to the power steering cooler (same purpose and function,
to keep the fluid cool).

ISSUE
A new, extended-life engine coolant, yellow-colored Motorcraft Premium Gold Engine Coolant,
meeting Ford Specification WSS-M97B51-A1, service part numbers VC-7-A and VC-7-C (for use in
the U.S., except California and Oregon) and VC-7-B (for use only in California and Oregon as it
contains a bittering agent), has been equipped in all of the vehicles noted above. The initial-fill life
for this coolant is 100,000 miles/5 years. Due to variations in water quality, the replacement interval
is 50,000 miles/3 years.
ACTION
Any time the addition of coolant or a coolant change-out is required, USE ONLY THE TYPE OF
ENGINE COOLANT WITH WHICH THE VEHICLE WAS ORIGINALLY EQUIPPED. DO NOT MIX
COOLANT TYPES. To determine the type of coolant required, check the color of coolant in the
coolant reservoir of the vehicle or refer to the applicable vehicle's Owner's Guide or Workshop
Manual for service parts and specification information.
SERVICE INFORMATION
Except for heavy-duty vehicles equipped with the Caterpillar 3126E engine, the use of a
supplemental coolant additive (SCA) such as Motorcraft Heavy-Duty Cooling System Additive,
service part number FW-16, is not required in conjunction with this coolant.
Testing is currently underway to determine the backward compatibility of the Motorcraft Premium
Gold Engine Coolant in vehicles equipped with the green-colored Motorcraft Premium Engine
Coolant, service part numbers VC-4-A, VC-4-B, and VC-5. Until the final test results are available,
vehicles should ONLY be serviced with type of coolant with which they were originally equipped.
Please note that Motorcraft Premium Gold Engine Coolant is not compatible with any
orange-colored, extended-life engine coolants such as Motorcraft Specialty Orange Engine
Coolant, service part numbers VC-2 and VC-3. DO NOT MIX COOLANT TYPES. USE ONLY THE
TYPE OF COOLANT WITH WHICH THE VEHICLE WAS EQUIPPED.
Failure to follow these guidelines may result in degradation of corrosion protection and potential
engine damage.
Coolant Discoloration:
The current Motorcraft Cooling System Stop Leak Pellets, service part number VC-6, used in both
Production and Service, cause the yellow-colored Motorcraft Premium Gold Engine Coolant to
change color ranging from a light golden brown to dark brown, depending upon the amount of
pellet

material in the coolant reservoir. This discoloration does not adversely affect the coolant or the
vehicle's cooling system components. No repairs are required for this condition. To avoid confusion
with regard to coolant contamination, a new formulation of stop leak pellets will be implemented in
Production and Service in the near future.

Ford Motor Company does not recommend nor endorse the use of engine coolants made with
propylene glycol in Ford vehicles. Ford Motor Company currently recommends the use of ethylene
glycol-based engine coolants.
Published information suggests that engine coolants made with propylene glycol may provide
engine cooling performance equivalent to engine coolants made with ethylene glycol. However,
different brands of engine coolant provide varying corrosion protection for the cooling system. Ford
does not have performance data for the multitude of engine coolants available in the aftermarket
and therefore cannot recommend the use of any coolant except those sold by Ford Customer
Service Division. Consult the vehicle's Owner's Guide to determine the appropriate Ford Customer
Service Division coolant for the vehicle.
Furthermore, claims of toxicological and environmental advantages of propylene glycol over
ethylene glycol may be misleading. When significant new information is developed, Ford will review
this policy.
Ford Motor Company specifications recommend that vehicles be maintained using certain ethylene
glycol-based engine coolants. Those specifications do not refer to engine coolants made with
propylene glycol. Although the Ford New Vehicle Limited Warranty is not automatically voided upon
the use of a coolant made with propylene glycol, if such use results in damage to the vehicle or its
components, the cost of repairing the damage would not be covered by the Ford New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.

ENGINE - COOLING SYSTEM - LOW COOLANT WARNING INDICATOR LAMP ILLUMINATED COOLANT DEGAS BOTTLE INSPECTION - SERVICE TIP
FORD: 2001-2003 ESCAPE
This article supersedes TSB 03-08-5 to update the vehicle model years and service procedure.
ISSUE Some 2001-2003 Escape 3.0L vehicles may exhibit a low coolant warning indicator lamp
illuminated. This may be caused by a low coolant level, even if it appears there is significant
coolant in the degas bottle. Analysis of coolant degas bottles indicate that bottle replacement may
not be necessary. Adjusting the coolant to the proper level may be all that is required to correct the
condition.
ACTION The following Service Procedure provides tips to help in veritying proper coolant levels.
Additional diagnostic and service information can be found in the appropriate Workshop Manual
Section 303-03.
SERVICE PROCEDURE PROPER INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT OF COOLANT LEVEL IN
THE DEGAS BOTTLE
There are four (4) different cells within the Escape degas bottle. The front cells of the degas bottle
are not a good visual indicator of proper coolant level, as these cells will always give the
appearance of being full (Figure 1). The actual COLD FILL RANGE is the larger cell with the fill
cap, just below the seam. It can be difficult to see if not properly examined.
If the vehicle is HOT when inspecting, the coolant level should be at the bottle seam (minimum) or
above the seam by 1/2 inch, well above the LOW mark. When hot, if the coolant level is not at least
to the top of the COLD FILL RANGE (seam), there is a possibility of illuminating the low coolant
lamp when the vehicle cools down and the coolant is drawn back into the engine cooling system.
DIAGNOSIS Engine Hot Or Cold Coolant Warning Indicator Lamp Not Illuminated (OFF):
1. If the coolant level is found to be below the COLD FILL RANGE (seam) add coolant, tighten
pressure cap and return vehicle to customer.

2. If the coolant level is verified to be at the top of the COLD FILL RANGE (seam), disconnect the
coolant level sensor and verify that the warning lamp turns off. If the lamp does turn off then
replace the degas bottle. If the lamp remains on with the sensor disconnected then perform
diagnostics on the circuit beyond degas bottle/low coolant sensor.
NOTE
IT TAKES APPROXIMATELY 25 SECONDS FOR THE LOW COOLANT LAMP TO TURN OFF
AFTER THE SENSOR CIRCUIT IS OPENED. (EXAMPLE: WHEN ADDING COOLANT TO A LOW

The PCM monitors certain parameters (such as engine coolant temperature, vehicle speed, A/C

operation through the Fan Control (FC) (single speed fan applications), Low Fan Control (LFC),
Medium Fan Control (MFC) and/or High Fan Control (HFC) outputs.
Although the PCM output circuits for three speed tans are called low, medium and high fan control

Hydraulic Cooling Fan Pump With Integral Solenoid
The system consists of an engine-driven pump with an integral solenoid (Figure 49) on the pump
that is triggered by the powertrain control module (PCM). Fan speed is controlled by adjusting
current to the solenoid, which then changes the fluid flow to the hydraulic motor. More current
means the solenoid opens up, allowing higher pressure to increase the fan speed. The fan always
turns due to solenoid current leakage, even in cold engine cases. The motor is driven by the pump.
It contains a shaft on which the fan mounts. The motor also contains quick connect fittings for the

Visctronic Drive Fan (VDF)
Visctronic Drive Fan (VDF)
Visctronic Drive Fan (VDF) Clutch
The primary purpose for the Visctronic Drive Fan (VDF) clutch is to optimize fan energy (i.e.
improved fuel economy) while meeting cooling performance requirements. Successful optimization
will also minimize objectionable fan noise. The operation is similar to the existing viscous fan
clutch, except viscous fluid flow is controlled by a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) solenoid versus a
bi-metal temperature sensor on the front of the clutch.
The VDF consists of three main elements, a working chamber, a reservoir chamber, and a Fan
Speed Sensor (FANSS). A fluid port valve controls fluid flow from the reservoir into the working
chamber. Once viscous fluid is in the working chamber, "shearing" of the fan clutch fluid will result
in fan rotation. The valve is activated via a pulse width modulated (PWM) output signal from the
PCM. By opening and closing the fluid port valve, the PCM can control approximate fan speed. Fan
speed is monitored via a Hall-Effect sensor and is read by the PCM for closed loop operation.
The PCM will optimize the VDF fan speed based upon CHT, TFT, or AT cooling requirements.
When either of these inputs is demanding increased fan speed for vehicle cooling, the PCM will
monitor the Hall Effect Fan Speed Sensor (FANSS), and output the resultant PWM signal to the
fluid port valve thus controlling to the required fan speed.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation
Engine Coolant Temperature
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor (Figure 27) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the
temperature increases, and increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance
affects the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in a series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The ECT measures the temperature of the engine coolant. The sensor is threaded into an engine
coolant passage. The ECT sensor is similar in construction to the IAT sensor.

Engine Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor
Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) Sensor
The Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) sensor (Figure 26) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as
temperature increases, and increases as temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects
the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor is installed in the aluminum cylinder head and
measures the metal temperature. The CHT sensor can provide complete engine temperature
information and can be used to infer coolant temperature. If the CHT sensor conveys an
overheating condition to the PCM, the PCM would then initiate a fail-safe cooling strategy based on
information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system failure such as low coolant or coolant loss
could cause an overheating condition. As a result, damage to major engine components could
occur. Using both the CHT sensor and fail-safe cooling strategy, the PCM prevents damage by
allowing air cooling of the engine and limp home capability. For additional information, refer to
Powertrain Control Software for Fail-Safe Cooling Strategy details. See: Powertrain

ISSUE The majority of repeat heater core leaks are due to high flow rate or use of poor quality
coolant. However, electrolysis should also be checked, especially when repeat repairs have
occurred.
ACTION If the heater core is leaking, review the location of the leakage and check the condition of
the coolant.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
1. Review the location of the leakage and check the condition of the coolant:
a. If leaks are found on the inlet (or outlet) tubes entering / exiting the heater core, it is most likely
due to due to high flow rate - replace the

Electrolysis/Leakage > Page 2602
heater core and install a restrictor in the heater hose closest to the engine block, reference
Workshop Manual, Section 412.
b. If leaks are found in the body of the heater core itself, and does not appear to be the result of
physical damage like contact or puncture, check the coolant for possible electrolysis.
Testing For Electrolysis
Check for voltage in the cooling system by touching the negative contact of a voltmeter to the
battery ground or a known good ground and suspend the positive lead in the coolant, making sure
it is in contact with the coolant but not touching any metal part of the radiator or cooling system.
Both AC and DC voltages must be checked. Vehicles normally have DC voltages; however, a faulty
engine block heater or faulty diode in the alternator can produce AC voltages. It is understood that
coolant is lost due to heater core failure but try to obtain a voltage reading on the old coolant in the
engine block before addition to or replacement of. To keep more coolant from exiting the heater
core clamp off heater core lines and measure coolant in the engine block. Try not to dilute the
original coolant with new coolant during testing if possible.
1. Determine whether coolant condition is acceptable.
a. Remove both cables from the battery and ensure they do not contact each other or the vehicle.
b. Touch negative lead of voltmeter to engine ground and positive lead in the coolant.
NOTE
POSITIVE TEST PROBE IS IN THE COOLANT FOR TESTING.
c. Check the voltage in the cooling system. If less than or equal to 0.4 volts (V) OK, reconnect
battery cables and proceed to Step 2.
d. If greater than 0.4 V, flush cooling system thoroughly.
e. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V.
f. Reconnect battery cables.
g. Refill the system with appropriate Motorcraft® engine coolant.
2. Check for loose or missing grounds at static conditions.
a. Turn off all accessories. Turn ignition on but do not start engine.
b. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.
c. Voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V on all grounds OK.
d. Any one greater than 0.4 V, check and clean ground cable connections.
e. Check accessories without using the on off switch on the vehicle instrument panel, use a jumper
wire to ground.
f. Plug in engine block heater, if equipped, and test.
g. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V.
h. Unplug engine block heater, if equipped.
3. Check for loose, missing, or inadequate grounds.
a. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.
b. Crank engine but do not start.
c. Monitor voltage while cranking. less than or equal to 0.4 V OK
d. If greater than 0.4 V, ground or repair starter.
e. Start engine and run at about 2000 rpm.
f. Turn on all accessories including those customer only uses occasionally such as CB radio, cell
phone, etc.
g. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.

h. Voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V OK
i. If greater than 0.4 V, turn off one item at a time until V drops to less than or equal to 0.4 V. Repair
ground to the accessory just identified.
j. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V
k. Turn the DVOM to AC volts.
l. Check for ANY AC voltage greater than 0.4.
m. If any AC voltage is present then try turning off each accessory one at a time including blower
motor and any fan motors.
n. If AC voltage is still present then shut engine off and remove B+ from the alternator and tape it
up then retest.
o. If voltage drop is gradual to less than or equal to 0.4 V, the ground straps may simply be
overloaded by added accessories. Test by using heavy gauge jumper to ground. If indicated, install
heavier gauge ground strap(s) and recheck.
NOTE
If vehicle is equipped with electric cooling fans, be sure they cycle during this testing and monitor
voltage when they are on and when off.
CAUTION
DO NOT GROUND HEATER CORE. IF THE HEATER CORE IS GROUNDED, YOU HAVE
PROVIDED THE ELECTROLOSIS A PATH THROUGH THE HEATER CORE. THIS WOULD
CAUSE THE HEATER CORE TO BECOME AN ANODE OR RECEIVER AND IT WOULD
PROMOTE THE ELECTROLOSIS, OR ANY STRAY VOLTAGE TO USE THE COOLANT AS THE
GROUND PATH.
4. Refill the engine cooling system, reference Workshop Manual, Section 303-03.
NOTE
IF THE HEAT OUTPUT IS INSUFFICIENT, OR THE ENGINE DOES NOT REACH NORMAL
OPERATING TEMPERATURES, VERIFY PROPER THERMOSTAT OPERATION AND REPEAT
PROCEDURE IF REQUIRED.

Workshop Manual, Section 412.
b. If leaks are found in the body of the heater core itself, and does not appear to be the result of
physical damage like contact or puncture, check the coolant for possible electrolysis.
Testing For Electrolysis
Check for voltage in the cooling system by touching the negative contact of a voltmeter to the
battery ground or a known good ground and suspend the positive lead in the coolant, making sure
it is in contact with the coolant but not touching any metal part of the radiator or cooling system.
Both AC and DC voltages must be checked. Vehicles normally have DC voltages; however, a faulty
engine block heater or faulty diode in the alternator can produce AC voltages. It is understood that
coolant is lost due to heater core failure but try to obtain a voltage reading on the old coolant in the
engine block before addition to or replacement of. To keep more coolant from exiting the heater
core clamp off heater core lines and measure coolant in the engine block. Try not to dilute the
original coolant with new coolant during testing if possible.
1. Determine whether coolant condition is acceptable.
a. Remove both cables from the battery and ensure they do not contact each other or the vehicle.
b. Touch negative lead of voltmeter to engine ground and positive lead in the coolant.

ENGINE - COOLING SYSTEM - LOW COOLANT WARNING INDICATOR LAMP ILLUMINATED COOLANT DEGAS BOTTLE INSPECTION - SERVICE TIP
FORD: 2001-2003 ESCAPE
This article supersedes TSB 03-08-5 to update the vehicle model years and service procedure.
ISSUE Some 2001-2003 Escape 3.0L vehicles may exhibit a low coolant warning indicator lamp
illuminated. This may be caused by a low coolant level, even if it appears there is significant
coolant in the degas bottle. Analysis of coolant degas bottles indicate that bottle replacement may
not be necessary. Adjusting the coolant to the proper level may be all that is required to correct the
condition.
ACTION The following Service Procedure provides tips to help in veritying proper coolant levels.
Additional diagnostic and service information can be found in the appropriate Workshop Manual
Section 303-03.
SERVICE PROCEDURE PROPER INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT OF COOLANT LEVEL IN
THE DEGAS BOTTLE
There are four (4) different cells within the Escape degas bottle. The front cells of the degas bottle
are not a good visual indicator of proper coolant level, as these cells will always give the
appearance of being full (Figure 1). The actual COLD FILL RANGE is the larger cell with the fill
cap, just below the seam. It can be difficult to see if not properly examined.
If the vehicle is HOT when inspecting, the coolant level should be at the bottle seam (minimum) or
above the seam by 1/2 inch, well above the LOW mark. When hot, if the coolant level is not at least
to the top of the COLD FILL RANGE (seam), there is a possibility of illuminating the low coolant
lamp when the vehicle cools down and the coolant is drawn back into the engine cooling system.
DIAGNOSIS Engine Hot Or Cold Coolant Warning Indicator Lamp Not Illuminated (OFF):
1. If the coolant level is found to be below the COLD FILL RANGE (seam) add coolant, tighten
pressure cap and return vehicle to customer.

Engine Coolant Temperature
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor (Figure 27) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the
temperature increases, and increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance
affects the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in a series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The ECT measures the temperature of the engine coolant. The sensor is threaded into an engine
coolant passage. The ECT sensor is similar in construction to the IAT sensor.

Engine Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor
Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) Sensor
The Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) sensor (Figure 26) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as
temperature increases, and increases as temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects
the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor is installed in the aluminum cylinder head and
measures the metal temperature. The CHT sensor can provide complete engine temperature
information and can be used to infer coolant temperature. If the CHT sensor conveys an
overheating condition to the PCM, the PCM would then initiate a fail-safe cooling strategy based on
information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system failure such as low coolant or coolant loss
could cause an overheating condition. As a result, damage to major engine components could
occur. Using both the CHT sensor and fail-safe cooling strategy, the PCM prevents damage by
allowing air cooling of the engine and limp home capability. For additional information, refer to
Powertrain Control Software for Fail-Safe Cooling Strategy details. See: Powertrain

Thermostat: Description and Operation
Thermostat Heater Control
Thermostat Assembly With Heater Control
The primary objective for the thermostat heater control is for improvement in the economy and
thermal efficiency. The system consists of a high temperature (98°C/208°F in lieu of a 90°C/194°F)
thermostat (Figure 50) that has a resistive heater within the wax element. The heater is controlled
by the PCM dependent on engine speed, throttle position, engine load, vehicle speed, air charge
temperature, transmission oil temperature and engine coolant temperature.
During low speed, low load and low air charge temperature conditions, the thermostat heater is
OFF and the engine is allowed to operate at an elevated coolant temperature. This should result in
lower internal friction and higher thermal efficiency, both leading to improved fuel economy.
During high speed, high load, high temperature conditions (air charge, transmission oil or engine
coolant), the PCM output is energized with a duty cycle to the thermostat heater. This heats the
wax and forces the thermostat to rapidly open wider allowing extra coolant to flow from the radiator.
This will reduce the coolant temperature and improve with performance demand.
It should be noted that the heater is only capable of supplying a SMALL amount of additional heat
to the wax element; it is NOT capable of opening the thermostat alone. The thermostat is 100%
duty cycle for short calibrated time and than the duty cycle is reduce to a maximum of 70% on and
30% off.
Approximately, unheated, the thermostat will begin to open at a coolant temperature of 98°C
(208°F) and will be fully open at 115°C (239°F). Energizing the heater will reduce the opening
temperature to about 80°C (176°F) and the fully open temperature to 110°C (230°F).

Catalytic Converter: Description and Operation Catalyst and Exhaust Systems
Overview
Generic Catalyst And Exhaust System
The Catalytic Converter and Exhaust Systems (Figure 133) work together to control the release of
harmful engine exhaust emissions into the atmosphere. The engine exhaust gas consists mainly of
Nitrogen (N), Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water Vapor (H2O). However, it also contains Carbon
Monoxide (CO), Oxides Of Nitrogen (NOx), Hydrogen (H), and various unburned Hydrocarbons
(HCs). CO, NOx, and HCs are major air pollutants, and their emission into the atmosphere must be
controlled.
The exhaust system generally consists of an exhaust manifold, front exhaust pipe, upstream
Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S), rear exhaust pipe, downstream HO2S, a muffler and an exhaust
tailpipe. The catalytic converter is installed between the front and rear exhaust pipes. Catalytic
converter efficiency is monitored by the On Board Diagnostic (OBD II) system. (Refer to OBD II
Monitors to Catalyst Efficiency Monitor-Federal Test Procedure for specific information.)
Catalytic Converter
A catalyst is a material that remains unchanged when it initiates and increases the speed of a
chemical reaction. A catalyst will also enable a chemical reaction to occur at a lower temperature.
The concentration of exhaust gas products released to the atmosphere must be controlled. The
catalytic converter assists in this task. It contains a catalyst in the form of a specially treated
ceramic honeycomb structure saturated with catalytically active precious metals. As the exhaust
gases come in contact with the catalyst, they are changed into mostly harmless products. The
catalyst initiates and speeds up heat producing chemical reactions of the exhaust gas components
so they are used up as much as possible.
Light Off Catalyst
As the catalyst heats up, converter efficiency rises rapidly. The point at which conversion efficiency
exceeds 50% is called catalyst light off. For most catalysts this point occurs at 475 to 575°F (246 to
301°C). A fast light catalyst is a Three Way Catalyst (TWC) that is located as close to the exhaust
manifold as possible. Because the light off catalyst is located close too the exhaust manifold it will
light off faster and reduce emissions quicker than the catalyst located under the body. Once the
catalyst lights off, the catalyst will quickly reach the maximum conversion efficiency for that
catalyst.
TWC Conversion Efficiency
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Exhaust System > Catalytic Converter > Component Information
> Description and Operation > Catalyst and Exhaust Systems > Page 2707
TWC Conversion Efficiency Chart
A TWC requires a stoichiometric fuel ratio, 14.7 pounds of air to 1 pound of fuel (14.7:1), for high
conversion efficiency. In order to achieve these high efficiencies, the air/fuel ratio must be tightly
controlled with a narrow window of stoichiometry. Devations outside of this window will greatly
decrease the conversion efficiency (Figure 134). For example a rich mixture will decrease the HC
and CO conversion efficiency while a lean mixture will decreases the NOx conversion efficiency.
Exhaust System
The purpose of the exhaust system is to convey engine emissions from the exhaust manifold to the
atmosphere. Engine exhaust emissions are directed from the engine exhaust manifold to the
catalytic converter through the front exhaust pipe. An HO2S is mounted on the front exhaust pipe
before the catalyst. The catalytic converter reduces the concentration of carbon monoxide (CO),
unburned hydrocarbons (HCs) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) in the exhaust emissions to an
acceptable level. The reduced exhaust emissions are directed from the catalytic converter through
another HO2S mounted in the rear exhaust pipe and than on in the muffler. Lastly, the exhaust
emissions are directed to the atmosphere through an exhaust tailpipe.
Hardware
The downstream HO2S may be located after the light off catalyst or underbody catalyst. The
underbody catalyst may be in-line with the light off catalyst, or the underbody catalyst may be
common to two light off catalysts, forming a "Y" pipe configuration. For an exact configuration of the
catalyst and exhaust system, refer to Exhaust System.
Three Way Catalytic Converter
The three way catalytic (TWC) converter contains either platinum (Pt) and rhodium (Rh) or
palladium (Pd) and rhodium (Rh). The TWC converter catalyzes the oxidation reactions of
unburned HCs and CO and the reduction reaction of NOx. The three-way conversion can be best
accomplished by always operating the engine air fuel/ratio at or close to stoichiometry.
Exhaust Manifold/Runners
The exhaust manifold runners collect exhaust gases from engine cylinders. The number of exhaust
manifolds and exhaust manifold runners depends on the engine configuration and number of
cylinders.
Exhaust Pipes
Exhaust pipes are usually treated during manufacturing with an anti-corrosive coating agent to
increase the life of the product. The pipes serve as guides for the flow of exhaust gases from the
engine exhaust manifold through the catalytic converter and the muffler.
Upstream Heated and Downstream Heated Oxygen Sensors
The HO2S provide the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with voltage and frequency information
related to the oxygen content of the exhaust gas. (Refer to the PCM Inputs for a description of how
the HO2S operates.)
In addition to providing the PCM with indications of how rich/lean the engine is operating, the
upstream HO2S signal serves as an input to the HO2S monitor. The downstream HO2S signal is
an input to the Catalyst Efficiency monitor. (Refer to the OBD II Monitors for specific information on
these monitors.)
Muffler
Mufflers are usually treated during manufacturing with an anti-corrosive coating agent to increase
the life of the product. The muffler reduces the level of noise produced by the engine, and it also
reduces the noise produced by exhaust gases as they travel from the catalytic converter to the

This article supersedes TSB 04-21-07 to update the service procedure and to clarify this TSB
applies to all powertrain control module (PCM) reprogramming, with or without PCM replacement.
ISSUE PCMs may need to be reprogrammed or replaced as part of a repair. Additional vehicle
concerns may be caused if proper programming procedures are not followed.
ACTION Use the following procedure to reprogram PCMs.
Verify repair after reprogramming.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
PRELIMINARY STEPS - Existing PCM
Reprogramming Or PCM Replacement
1. Connect a battery charger to vehicle.
2. Use WDS if available.

- Computers and Control Systems > Powertrain Control Module <--> [Engine Control Module] > Component Information >
Technical Service Bulletins > Engine Controls - General PCM Programming Procedures > Page 2738
a. Make sure WDS is docked or attached to vehicle battery supply.
b. Verify WDS software is at the latest release level.
3. If there is a communication error, attempt to communicate with a different diagnostic scan tool,
such as NGS, NGS+, VCM or another WDS.
NOTE
IF COMMUNICATION STILL CANNOT BE ESTABLISHED, VOLTAGE DROP PCM POWERS,
GROUNDS, AND CHECK VREF.
PCM REPLACEMENT - STANDARD
1. Open WDS vehicle session with original PCM installed in vehicle. If the original PCM is not able
to communicate, to open a session, proceed to the Blank Path Programming procedure.
2. Install the new PCM.
NOTE
IF WDS NEEDS TO BE USED ON A DIFFERENT VEHICLE WHILE THE NEW PCM IS BEING
INSTALLED, PLACE THE VEHICLE SESSION ON "HOLD" FOR USE LATER.
3. Attempt to start the vehicle.
4. Run KOEO Self Test to check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) in PCM.
5. Check for DTC P0602/P0605/P1639.
a. If DTC P0602/P0605/P1639 is present then Programmable Module Installation (PMI) procedure
must be performed. Use the WDS session opened at Step 1.
b. If DTC P0602/P0605/P1639 is not present, then verify Programmable Parameters are properly
set such as tire size, axle ratio, etc.
6. Check for DTC B2900.
a. If DTC B2900 is present, perform PMI on the ABS module. Do Not replace ABS module for this
procedure when directed. You may be prompted to enter the 9 lines of PCM As-Built data during
this procedure.
b. If DTC B2900 is not present proceed to Step 7.
7. Diagnose all other DTCs following normal diagnostic procedures.
REPROGRAMMING DOES NOT COMPLETE OR FAILS - Existing PCM Reprogramming Or PCM
Replacement
1. Verify all cables are properly connected.
2. Verify vehicle battery is at proper charge level.
3. Verify scan tool battery is at proper charge level.
4. Attempt reprogramming procedure again.
5. If reprogramming still does not complete properly, save current session, reboot WDS, open
previous session, and attempt reprogramming again.
6. If reprogramming still does not complete or you are now unable to communicate with PCM,
proceed to the Blank Path Programming procedure.
BLANK PATH PROGRAMMING - Existing PCM Reprogramming Or PCM Replacement
Perform this procedure prior to PCM replacement if a vehicle comes in with a PCM that will not
communicate, or if steps earlier in this TSB directed you to this procedure.
1. Verify powers and grounds to PCM by loading and voltage drop testing circuits.
2. Follow Pin Point Tests to verify network integrity.
NOTE
IGNITION MUST REMAIN IN THE OFF POSITION UNTIL PERFORMING STEP 8. DO NOT

Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor
Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure (TMAP) Sensor
The Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor (TMAP) (Figure 40) consists of a Manifold
Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor and an integrated thermistor. The thermistor part of the sensor is
currently not being used. The MAP part of the sensor measures intake manifold air absolute
pressure. The PCM uses information from the MAP sensor, Throttle Position (TP) sensor, mass air
flow (MAF) sensor, engine coolant temperature (ECT) or cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor
and crankshaft position (CKP) sensor to determine how much exhaust gas is introduced into the
intake manifold.

Mass Air Flow Sensor: Description and Operation
Mass Air Flow Sensor
Typical Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor
Diagram Of Air Flow Through Throttle Body Contacting MAF Sensor Hot And Cold Wire Terminals
The Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor uses a hot wire sensing element to measure the amount of air
entering the engine. Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at
200°C (392°F) above ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire (Figure 35). If the
hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced, then the entire assembly must be replaced.
Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.
The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the air mass flow.
The MAF sensor then outputs an analog voltage signal to the PCM proportional to the intake air
mass. The PCM calculates the required fuel injector pulse width in order to provide the desired
air/fuel ratio (Figure 36). This input is also used in determining transmission Electronic Pressure
Control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling.

Some MAF sensors have Integrated Bypass Technology (IBT) with an integrated intake air
temperature (IAT) sensor. The present applications with IBT are: Focus, Escort (4V), 2.0L Cougar,
Escape, Taurus/Sable, Windstar, Explorer/Mountaineer and E-Series.
The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner
assembly.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Camshaft Position Sensor
The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor detects the position of the camshaft. The CMP sensor
identifies when piston No.1 is on its compression stroke. A signal is then sent to the powertrain
control module (PCM) and used for synchronizing the firing of sequential fuel injectors. The Coil On
Plug (COP) Ignition applications also use the CMP signal to select the proper ignition coil to fire.
The input circuit to the PCM is referred to as the CMP input or circuit.
Typical Hall-Effect Sensor
Typical Variable Reluctance Sensor
There are two types of CMP sensors: the three pin connector Hall-effect type sensor (Figure 22)
and the two pin connector variable reluctance sensor (Figure 23).

Camshaft Position Sensor
Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor
The camshaft position sensor (Figure 55) used by COP Integrated EI system is a magnetic
transducer mounted on the engine front cover adjacent to the camshaft. By monitoring a target on

Clutch Switch: Description and Operation
Clutch Pedal Position Switch
Typical Clutch Pedal Position (CPP)/Park-Neutral Position (PNP) Switches
The Clutch Pedal Position (CPP) switch (Figure 24) is an input to the PCM indicating the clutch
pedal position and, in some manual transmission applications, both the clutch pedal engagement
position and the gear shift position. The PCM provides a 5-volt reference (VREF) signal to the CPP
switch and/or a Park/Neutral Position (PNP) switch (on the CPP signal line). If the CPP switch
(either or both CPP and PNP switches are closed) is closed, indicating the clutch pedal is engaged
and the shift lever is in the NEUTRAL position, the output voltage (5 volts) from the PCM is
grounded through the signal return line to the PCM, and there is 1 volt or less. One volt or less
indicates there is a reduced load on the engine. If the CPP switch (or PNP switch on vehicle or
both CPP and PNP switches open on the vehicle) is open, meaning the clutch pedal is disengaged
(all systems) and the shift lever is not in NEUTRAL position (PNP switch systems), the input on the
CPP signal to the PCM will be approximately 5 volts. Then, the 5-volt signal input at the PCM will
indicate a load on the engine. The PCM uses the load information in mass air flow and fuel
calculations.

Engine Coolant Temperature
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor (Figure 27) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the
temperature increases, and increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance
affects the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in a series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The ECT measures the temperature of the engine coolant. The sensor is threaded into an engine
coolant passage. The ECT sensor is similar in construction to the IAT sensor.

Crankshaft Position Sensor (Integrated Ignition Systems)
Three Different Types Of Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensors
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is a magnetic transducer mounted on the engine block
adjacent to a pulse wheel located on the crankshaft. By monitoring the crankshaft mounted pulse
wheel, the CKP is the primary sensor for ignition information to the powertrain control module
(PCM). The trigger wheel has a total of 35 teeth spaced 10 degrees apart with one empty space for
a missing tooth. The 6.8L ten cylinder pulse wheel has 39 teeth spaced 9 degrees apart and one 9
degree empty space for a missing tooth. By monitoring the trigger wheel, the CKP indicates
crankshaft position and speed information to the PCM. By monitoring the missing tooth, the CKP is
also able to identify piston travel in order to synchronize the ignition system and provide a way of
tracking the angular position of the crankshaft relative to fixed reference (Figure 25).

configuration. The PCM also uses the CKP signal to determine if a misfire has occurred by
measuring rapid decelerations between teeth.

Engine Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor
Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) Sensor
The Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) sensor (Figure 26) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as
temperature increases, and increases as temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects
the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor is installed in the aluminum cylinder head and
measures the metal temperature. The CHT sensor can provide complete engine temperature
information and can be used to infer coolant temperature. If the CHT sensor conveys an
overheating condition to the PCM, the PCM would then initiate a fail-safe cooling strategy based on
information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system failure such as low coolant or coolant loss
could cause an overheating condition. As a result, damage to major engine components could
occur. Using both the CHT sensor and fail-safe cooling strategy, the PCM prevents damage by
allowing air cooling of the engine and limp home capability. For additional information, refer to
Powertrain Control Software for Fail-Safe Cooling Strategy details. See: Description and
Operation/Powertrain Control Software

Intake Air Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Intake Air Temperature Sensor
Intake Air Temperature (IAT)
The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensors (Figure 33) and integrated Mass Air Flow (MAF) type
(Figure 36), are thermistor devices in which resistance changes with temperature The electrical
resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and increases as the
temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects the voltage drop across the sensor
terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in a series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The IAT provides air temperature information to the PCM. The PCM uses the air temperature
information as a correction factor in the calculation of fuel, spark and MAF.
The IAT sensor provides a quicker temperature change response time than the ECT or CHT
sensor.
Supercharged vehicles use (2) IAT sensors. Both sensors are thermistor type devices and operate
as above. However, one is located before the supercharger at the air cleaner for standard OBD
II/cold weather input, while a second sensor (IAT2) is located after the supercharger in the intake
manifold. The IAT2 sensor located after the supercharger provides air temperature information to
the PCM to control border-line spark and to help determine intercooler efficiency.
Currently two types of IAT2 sensors are used. A screw in type (Figure 33) and an integrated type,
witch is part of the Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure (TMAP) sensor (Figure 40). The TMAP
sensor consists of a IAT thermistor and a Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor. The
thermistor portion of the TMAP is used for IAT2 function and operates in the same manner as a
non-integrated IAT2. For additional information on the MAP portion of the TMAP, refer to the
Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor description and operation.

The Engine Oil Temperature (EOT) sensor (Figure 29) is a thermistor device in which resistance
changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature
increases and increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects the voltage

The EOT measures the temperature of the engine oil. The EOT sensor is similar in construction to
the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor. On some applications, EOT input to the PCM is
used to initiate a soft engine shutdown. This prevents engine damage from occurring as a result of
high oil temperature.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views

Heated Oxygen Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Heated Oxygen Sensor
Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S)
The Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) (Figure 32) detects the presence of oxygen in the exhaust and
produces a variable voltage according to the amount of oxygen detected. A high concentration of
oxygen (lean air/fuel ratio) in the exhaust produces a low voltage signal less than 0.4 volt. A low
concentration of oxygen (rich air/fuel ratio) produces a high voltage signal greater than 0.6 volt. The
HO2S provides feedback to the PCM indicating air/fuel ratio in order to achieve a near
stoichiometric air/fuel ratio of 14.7:1 during closed loop engine operation. The HO2S generates a
voltage between 0.0 and 1.1 volts.
Embedded with the sensing element is the HO2S heater. The heating element heats the sensor to
temperatures of 800°C (1400°F). At approximately 300°C (600°F) the engine can enter closed loop
operation. The VPWR circuit supplies voltage to the heater and the PCM will complete the ground
when the proper conditions occur. For model year 1998 a new HO2S heater and heater control
system are installed on some vehicles. The high power heater reaches closed loop fuel control
temperatures. The use of this heater requires that the HO2S heater control be duty cycled, to
prevent damage to the heater. The 6 ohm design is not interchangeable with new style 3.3 ohm
heater.

Oxygen Sensors
Upstream Heated and Downstream Heated Oxygen Sensors
The HO2S provide the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with voltage and frequency information
related to the oxygen content of the exhaust gas. (Refer to the PCM Inputs for a description of how
the HO2S operates.)
In addition to providing the PCM with indications of how rich/lean the engine is operating, the
upstream HO2S signal serves as an input to the HO2S monitor. The downstream HO2S signal is
an input to the Catalyst Efficiency monitor. (Refer to the OBD II Monitors for specific information on
these monitors.)

Power Steering Pressure Switch
Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Switch
The Power Steering Pressure (PSP) switch (Figure 37) monitors the hydraulic pressure within the
power steering system. The PSP switch is a normally closed switch that opens as the hydraulic
pressure increases The PCM uses the input signal from the PSP switch to compensate for
additional loads on the engine by adjusting the idle rpm and preventing engine stall during parking
maneuvers. Also, the PSP switch signals the PCM to adjust transmission electronic pressure
control (EPC) pressure during the increased engine load, for example during parking maneuvers.

Pressure Feedback Exhaust Sensor: Description and Operation
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 86) is a ceramic, capacitive-type pressure
transducer that monitors the differential pressure across a metering orifice located in the orifice
tube assembly. The differential pressure feedback sensor receives this signal through two hoses
referred to as the downstream pressure hose (REF SIGNAL) and upstream pressure hose (HI
SIGNAL). The HI and REF hose connections are marked on the aluminum differential pressure
feedback EGR sensor housing for identification (note that the HI signal uses a larger diameter
hose). The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor outputs a voltage proportional to the
pressure drop across the metering orifice and supplies it to the PCM as EGR flow rate feedback.

Tube Mounted Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The tube mounted differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 87) is identical in operation
as the larger metal or plastic DPFE sensors and uses a 1.0 volt offset. The HI and REF hose
connections are marked on the underside of the sensor.

Throttle Position Sensor: Description and Operation
Throttle Position Sensor
Typical Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
The throttle position (TP) sensor (Figure 41) is a rotary potentiometer sensor that provides a signal
to the PCM that is linearly proportional to the throttle plate/shaft position. The sensor housing has a
three-blade electrical connector that may be gold plated. The gold plating increases corrosion
resistance on terminals and increases connector durability. The TP sensor is mounted on the
throttle body. As the TP sensor is rotated by the throttle shaft, four operating conditions are
determined by the PCM from the TP. Those conditions are closed throttle (includes idle or
deceleration), part throttle (includes cruise or moderate acceleration), wide open throttle (includes
maximum acceleration or de-choke on crank), and throttle angle rate.
The TP sensor monitors throttle position and provides an electrical signal to the PCM. It is
monitored by the OBD II system for component integrity, system functionality, and faults that can
cause emissions levels to exceed standards set in government regulations. For additional
information on the TP sensor, refer to Electronic EC System Hardware-PCM Inputs.

Vehicle Speed Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Vehicle Speed Sensor
Typical Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)
The Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) (Figure 44) is a variable reluctance or Hall-effect sensor that
generates a waveform with a frequency that is proportional to the speed of the vehicle. If the
vehicle is moving at a relatively low velocity, the sensor produces a signal with a low frequency. As
the vehicle velocity increases, the sensor generates a signal with a higher frequency. The PCM
uses the frequency signal generated by the VSS (and other inputs) to control such parameters as
fuel injection, ignition control, transmission/transaxle shift scheduling and torque converter clutch
scheduling.

Vehicle Speed Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Output
Powertrain Control Module - Vehicle Speed Output (VSO)
The PCM-VSO (Powertrain Control Module - Vehicle Speed Output) speed signal subsystem
generates vehicle speed information for distribution to the vehicle's electrical/electronic modules
and subsystems that require vehicle speed data. This subsystem senses the transmission output
shaft speed with a sensor. The data is processed by the PCM, and distributed as a hard-wired
signal or as a multiplexed data message.
The key features of the PCM-VSO system are to: ^
Infer vehicle movement from the output shaft sensor signal
^ Convert transmission output shaft rotational information to vehicle speed information
^ Compensate for tire size and axle ratio with a programmed calibration variable
^ Utilize a transfer case sensor for four wheel drive applications
^ Distribute vehicle speed information as a multiplexed message and/or an analog signal
The signal from a non-contact shaft sensor (Output Shaft Sensor--OSS or Transfer Case Shaft
Sensor--TCSS) mounted on the transmission (automatics, manuals, or 4X4 transfer cases) is
sensed directly by the PCM. The PCM converts the OSS or TCSS information to 8000 pulses per
mile, based on a tire and axle ratio conversion factor. This conversion factor is programmed into
the PCM at the time the vehicle is assembled and can be reprogrammed in the field for servicing
changes in the tire size and axle ratio. The PCM transmits the computed vehicle speed and
distance traveled information to all the vehicle speed signal users on the vehicle. VSO information
can be transmitted by a hard-wired interface between the vehicle speed signal user and the PCM,
or by Speed and Odometer SCP multiplexed data messages.
The VSO hard-wired signal wave form is a DC square wave with a voltage level of 0 to VBAT.
Typical output operating range is 2.22Hz per MPH ( 1.3808 Hz pr 1 Km/h). Multiplexed data for
speed and distance data are transmitted as separate SCP messages over the SCP multiplex link.

Pressure Feedback Exhaust Sensor: Description and Operation
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 86) is a ceramic, capacitive-type pressure
transducer that monitors the differential pressure across a metering orifice located in the orifice
tube assembly. The differential pressure feedback sensor receives this signal through two hoses
referred to as the downstream pressure hose (REF SIGNAL) and upstream pressure hose (HI
SIGNAL). The HI and REF hose connections are marked on the aluminum differential pressure
feedback EGR sensor housing for identification (note that the HI signal uses a larger diameter
hose). The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor outputs a voltage proportional to the
pressure drop across the metering orifice and supplies it to the PCM as EGR flow rate feedback.

Mass Air Flow Sensor: Description and Operation
Mass Air Flow Sensor
Typical Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor
Diagram Of Air Flow Through Throttle Body Contacting MAF Sensor Hot And Cold Wire Terminals
The Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor uses a hot wire sensing element to measure the amount of air
entering the engine. Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at
200°C (392°F) above ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire (Figure 35). If the
hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced, then the entire assembly must be replaced.
Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.
The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the air mass flow.
The MAF sensor then outputs an analog voltage signal to the PCM proportional to the intake air
mass. The PCM calculates the required fuel injector pulse width in order to provide the desired
air/fuel ratio (Figure 36). This input is also used in determining transmission Electronic Pressure
Control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling.

temperature (IAT) sensor. The present applications with IBT are: Focus, Escort (4V), 2.0L Cougar,
Escape, Taurus/Sable, Windstar, Explorer/Mountaineer and E-Series.
The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner
assembly.

Fuel Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation
Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor
Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) Sensor
The Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) sensor (Figure 30) is a diaphragm strain gauge device in which
resistance changes with pressure. The electrical resistance of a strain gauge increases as
pressure increases, and decreases as pressure decreases. The varying resistance affects the
voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding
to pressure.
Strain gauge type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The FRP sensor measures the pressure of the fuel near the fuel injectors. This signal is used by
the PCM to adjust the fuel injector pulse width and meter fuel to each engine combustion cylinder.
Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) Sensor
The fuel rail pressure (FRP) sensor (Figure 31) senses the pressure difference between the fuel
rail and the intake manifold. The return fuel line to the fuel tank has been deleted in this type of fuel
system. The differential fuel/intake manifold pressure together with measured fuel temperature
provides an indication of the fuel vapors in the fuel rail. Both differential pressure and temperature
feedback signals are used to control the speed of the fuel pump. The speed of the fuel pump
sustains fuel rail pressure which preserve fuel in its liquid state. The dynamic range of the fuel
injectors increase because of the higher rail pressure, which allows the injector pulse width to
decrease.

Fuel Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Engine Fuel Temperature Sensor
Engine Fuel Temperature (EFT) Sensor
The Engine Fuel Temperature (EFT) sensor (Figure 28) is a thermistor device in which resistance
changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature
increases, and increases as temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects the voltage
drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to
temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a

Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch: Description and Operation
Inertia Fuel Shutoff (IFS) Switch
The Inertia Fuel Shutoff (IFS) switch (Figure 72) is used in conjunction with the electric fuel pump.
The purpose of the IFS switch is to shut off the fuel pump if a collision occurs. It consists of a steel
ball held in place by a magnet. When a sharp impact occurs, the ball breaks loose from the
magnet, rolls up a conical ramp and strikes a target plate which opens the electrical contacts of the
switch and shuts off the electric fuel pump. Once the switch is open, it must be manually reset
before restarting the vehicle. Refer to the Owner Guide for the location of the IFS.

Throttle Position Sensor: Description and Operation
Throttle Position Sensor
Typical Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
The throttle position (TP) sensor (Figure 41) is a rotary potentiometer sensor that provides a signal
to the PCM that is linearly proportional to the throttle plate/shaft position. The sensor housing has a
three-blade electrical connector that may be gold plated. The gold plating increases corrosion
resistance on terminals and increases connector durability. The TP sensor is mounted on the
throttle body. As the TP sensor is rotated by the throttle shaft, four operating conditions are
determined by the PCM from the TP. Those conditions are closed throttle (includes idle or
deceleration), part throttle (includes cruise or moderate acceleration), wide open throttle (includes
maximum acceleration or de-choke on crank), and throttle angle rate.
The TP sensor monitors throttle position and provides an electrical signal to the PCM. It is
monitored by the OBD II system for component integrity, system functionality, and faults that can
cause emissions levels to exceed standards set in government regulations. For additional
information on the TP sensor, refer to Electronic EC System Hardware-PCM Inputs.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Camshaft Position Sensor
The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor detects the position of the camshaft. The CMP sensor
identifies when piston No.1 is on its compression stroke. A signal is then sent to the powertrain
control module (PCM) and used for synchronizing the firing of sequential fuel injectors. The Coil On
Plug (COP) Ignition applications also use the CMP signal to select the proper ignition coil to fire.
The input circuit to the PCM is referred to as the CMP input or circuit.
Typical Hall-Effect Sensor
Typical Variable Reluctance Sensor
There are two types of CMP sensors: the three pin connector Hall-effect type sensor (Figure 22)
and the two pin connector variable reluctance sensor (Figure 23).

transducer mounted on the engine front cover adjacent to the camshaft. By monitoring a target on
the camshaft sprocket, the CMP sensor identifies cylinder one to the PCM. The COP Integrated EI
system uses this information to synchronize the firing of the individual coils.

Crankshaft Position Sensor (Integrated Ignition Systems)
Three Different Types Of Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensors
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is a magnetic transducer mounted on the engine block
adjacent to a pulse wheel located on the crankshaft. By monitoring the crankshaft mounted pulse
wheel, the CKP is the primary sensor for ignition information to the powertrain control module
(PCM). The trigger wheel has a total of 35 teeth spaced 10 degrees apart with one empty space for
a missing tooth. The 6.8L ten cylinder pulse wheel has 39 teeth spaced 9 degrees apart and one 9
degree empty space for a missing tooth. By monitoring the trigger wheel, the CKP indicates
crankshaft position and speed information to the PCM. By monitoring the missing tooth, the CKP is
also able to identify piston travel in order to synchronize the ignition system and provide a way of
tracking the angular position of the crankshaft relative to fixed reference (Figure 25).

Typical Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor
The crankshaft position (CKP) sensor (Figure 54) is a magnetic transducer mounted on the engine
block adjacent to a pulse wheel located on the crankshaft. By monitoring the crankshaft mounted
pulse wheel, the CKP is the primary sensor for ignition information to the PCM. The pulse wheel
has a total of 35 teeth spaced 10 degrees apart with one empty space for a missing tooth. The 6.8L
ten cylinder pulse wheel has 39 teeth spaced 9 degrees apart and one 9 degree empty space for a
missing tooth. By monitoring the pulse wheel, the CKP sensor signal indicates crankshaft position
and speed information to the PCM. By monitoring the missing tooth, the CKP sensor is also able to
identify piston travel in order to synchronize the ignition system and provide a way of tracking the
angular position of the crankshaft relative to a fixed reference (Figure 54) for the CKP sensor
configuration. The PCM also uses the CKP signal to determine if a misfire has occurred by
measuring rapid decelerations between teeth.

Compression Check: Testing and Inspection
Compression Test
General Remarks
NOTE: Removing fuses and disconnecting electrical components causes the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) to log an error message. After the measurements have been carried out this error
message should be cleared from memory by connecting to PDU.
NOTE: Only check the compression pressure with the valves set to the prescribed clearance (if this
can be adjusted).
The compression pressure should be checked with the engine at operating temperature.
Check the Compression Pressure.
WARNING: On manual transmissions shift the transmission into neutral. On automatic
transmission vehicles, select "P". Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
1. Remove the fuel pump relay. 2. Start the engine - the engine will start, run for a few seconds
then stall. 3. Remove the spark plugs. 4. Install the compression tester. 5. Install an auxiliary starter
switch in the starting circuit. With the ignition switch OFF, using the auxiliary starter switch, crank
the engine a
minimum of five compression strokes and record the highest reading. Note the approximate
number of compression strokes required to obtain the highest reading.
6. Repeat the test on each cylinder, cranking the engine approximately the same number of
compression strokes. 7. Install the components in reverse order, observing the specified tightening
torques. 8. Reset the PCM fault memory.
Interpretation of the Results
The indicated compression pressure are considered within specification if the lowest reading
cylinder is within 75% of the highest reading.
CAUTION: If engine oil is sprayed into the combustion chamber, after carrying out the
measurement run the engine at 2000 rpm for about 15 minutes, in order to burn the oil and prevent
damage to the catalytic converter.
If the measurement on one or more cylinders is much lower than the specified value, spray some
engine oil into the combustion chamber and repeat the compression measurement. If the reading
greatly improves, the piston rings are damaged. If the reading stays the same, the cause is either
damaged valve seats or valve stem seals. If the measurements for two cylinders next to each other
are both too low then it is very likely that the cylinder head gasket between them is burnt through.
This can also be recognized by traces of engine oil in the coolant and/or coolant in the engine oil.

Absolute Pressure Sensor: Description and Operation
Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor
Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure (TMAP) Sensor
The Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor (TMAP) (Figure 40) consists of a Manifold
Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor and an integrated thermistor. The thermistor part of the sensor is
currently not being used. The MAP part of the sensor measures intake manifold air absolute
pressure. The PCM uses information from the MAP sensor, Throttle Position (TP) sensor, mass air
flow (MAF) sensor, engine coolant temperature (ECT) or cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor
and crankshaft position (CKP) sensor to determine how much exhaust gas is introduced into the
intake manifold.

Mass Air Flow Sensor: Description and Operation
Mass Air Flow Sensor
Typical Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor
Diagram Of Air Flow Through Throttle Body Contacting MAF Sensor Hot And Cold Wire Terminals
The Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor uses a hot wire sensing element to measure the amount of air
entering the engine. Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at
200°C (392°F) above ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire (Figure 35). If the
hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced, then the entire assembly must be replaced.
Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.
The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the air mass flow.
The MAF sensor then outputs an analog voltage signal to the PCM proportional to the intake air
mass. The PCM calculates the required fuel injector pulse width in order to provide the desired
air/fuel ratio (Figure 36). This input is also used in determining transmission Electronic Pressure
Control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling.

Some MAF sensors have Integrated Bypass Technology (IBT) with an integrated intake air
temperature (IAT) sensor. The present applications with IBT are: Focus, Escort (4V), 2.0L Cougar,
Escape, Taurus/Sable, Windstar, Explorer/Mountaineer and E-Series.
The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner

Intake Air Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Intake Air Temperature Sensor
Intake Air Temperature (IAT)
The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensors (Figure 33) and integrated Mass Air Flow (MAF) type
(Figure 36), are thermistor devices in which resistance changes with temperature The electrical
resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and increases as the
temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects the voltage drop across the sensor
terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in a series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The IAT provides air temperature information to the PCM. The PCM uses the air temperature
information as a correction factor in the calculation of fuel, spark and MAF.
The IAT sensor provides a quicker temperature change response time than the ECT or CHT
sensor.
Supercharged vehicles use (2) IAT sensors. Both sensors are thermistor type devices and operate
as above. However, one is located before the supercharger at the air cleaner for standard OBD
II/cold weather input, while a second sensor (IAT2) is located after the supercharger in the intake
manifold. The IAT2 sensor located after the supercharger provides air temperature information to
the PCM to control border-line spark and to help determine intercooler efficiency.
Currently two types of IAT2 sensors are used. A screw in type (Figure 33) and an integrated type,
witch is part of the Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure (TMAP) sensor (Figure 40). The TMAP
sensor consists of a IAT thermistor and a Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor. The
thermistor portion of the TMAP is used for IAT2 function and operates in the same manner as a
non-integrated IAT2. For additional information on the MAP portion of the TMAP, refer to the
Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor description and operation.

Brake Signal: Description and Operation Brake Pedal Position Switch
Brake Pedal Position Switch
Typical Brake Pedal Position Switch
The Brake Pedal Position (BPP) switch (Figure 21) is used by the PCM to disengage the
transmission torque converter clutch and on some applications as an input to the idle speed control
for idle quality and for vehicle speed control deactivation. On most applications the BPP switch is
hard wired to the PCM and supplies battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is
applied. On other applications the BPP switch signal is broadcast over the SCP link via another
module to be received by the PCM.
On applications where the BPP switch is hard wired to the PCM and stoplamp circuit, if all
stoplamp bulbs are burned out (open), high voltage is present at the PCM due to a pull-up resistor
in the PCM. This provides fail-safe operation in the event the circuit to the stoplamp bulbs has
failed.

Brake Signal: Description and Operation Brake Pressure Applied Brake Deactivator Switch
Brake Pressure Applied Brake Deactivator Switch
The Brake Pressure Applied (BPA) switch also sometimes called the brake deactivator switch for
vehicle speed control deactivation. Is a normally closed switch, witch supplies battery positive
voltage (B+) to the PCM when the brake pedal is NOT applied. When the brake pedal is
depressed, the normally closed switch will open and power is removed from the PCM.
On some applications the normally closed BPA switch along with the normally open brake pedal
position (BPP) switch are used for a brake rationality test within the PCM. The PCM misfire monitor
profile learn function can be disable if a brake switch failure occurs. If one or both brake pedal
inputs to the PCM did not change states when they were expected to a diagnostic trouble code
P1572 can be set by the PCM strategy.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Camshaft Position Sensor
The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor detects the position of the camshaft. The CMP sensor
identifies when piston No.1 is on its compression stroke. A signal is then sent to the powertrain
control module (PCM) and used for synchronizing the firing of sequential fuel injectors. The Coil On
Plug (COP) Ignition applications also use the CMP signal to select the proper ignition coil to fire.
The input circuit to the PCM is referred to as the CMP input or circuit.
Typical Hall-Effect Sensor
Typical Variable Reluctance Sensor
There are two types of CMP sensors: the three pin connector Hall-effect type sensor (Figure 22)
and the two pin connector variable reluctance sensor (Figure 23).

The camshaft position sensor (Figure 55) used by COP Integrated EI system is a magnetic
transducer mounted on the engine front cover adjacent to the camshaft. By monitoring a target on
the camshaft sprocket, the CMP sensor identifies cylinder one to the PCM. The COP Integrated EI
system uses this information to synchronize the firing of the individual coils.

Clutch Switch: Description and Operation
Clutch Pedal Position Switch
Typical Clutch Pedal Position (CPP)/Park-Neutral Position (PNP) Switches
The Clutch Pedal Position (CPP) switch (Figure 24) is an input to the PCM indicating the clutch
pedal position and, in some manual transmission applications, both the clutch pedal engagement
position and the gear shift position. The PCM provides a 5-volt reference (VREF) signal to the CPP
switch and/or a Park/Neutral Position (PNP) switch (on the CPP signal line). If the CPP switch
(either or both CPP and PNP switches are closed) is closed, indicating the clutch pedal is engaged
and the shift lever is in the NEUTRAL position, the output voltage (5 volts) from the PCM is
grounded through the signal return line to the PCM, and there is 1 volt or less. One volt or less
indicates there is a reduced load on the engine. If the CPP switch (or PNP switch on vehicle or
both CPP and PNP switches open on the vehicle) is open, meaning the clutch pedal is disengaged
(all systems) and the shift lever is not in NEUTRAL position (PNP switch systems), the input on the
CPP signal to the PCM will be approximately 5 volts. Then, the 5-volt signal input at the PCM will
indicate a load on the engine. The PCM uses the load information in mass air flow and fuel
calculations.

Coolant Temperature Sensor/Switch (For Computer): Description and Operation
Engine Coolant Temperature
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor (Figure 27) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the
temperature increases, and increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance
affects the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in a series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The ECT measures the temperature of the engine coolant. The sensor is threaded into an engine
coolant passage. The ECT sensor is similar in construction to the IAT sensor.

Crankshaft Position Sensor (Integrated Ignition Systems)
Three Different Types Of Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensors
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is a magnetic transducer mounted on the engine block
adjacent to a pulse wheel located on the crankshaft. By monitoring the crankshaft mounted pulse
wheel, the CKP is the primary sensor for ignition information to the powertrain control module
(PCM). The trigger wheel has a total of 35 teeth spaced 10 degrees apart with one empty space for
a missing tooth. The 6.8L ten cylinder pulse wheel has 39 teeth spaced 9 degrees apart and one 9
degree empty space for a missing tooth. By monitoring the trigger wheel, the CKP indicates
crankshaft position and speed information to the PCM. By monitoring the missing tooth, the CKP is
also able to identify piston travel in order to synchronize the ignition system and provide a way of
tracking the angular position of the crankshaft relative to fixed reference (Figure 25).

identify piston travel in order to synchronize the ignition system and provide a way of tracking the
angular position of the crankshaft relative to a fixed reference (Figure 54) for the CKP sensor
configuration. The PCM also uses the CKP signal to determine if a misfire has occurred by
measuring rapid decelerations between teeth.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views

Engine Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor
Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) Sensor
The Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) sensor (Figure 26) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as
temperature increases, and increases as temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects
the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor is installed in the aluminum cylinder head and
measures the metal temperature. The CHT sensor can provide complete engine temperature
information and can be used to infer coolant temperature. If the CHT sensor conveys an
overheating condition to the PCM, the PCM would then initiate a fail-safe cooling strategy based on
information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system failure such as low coolant or coolant loss
could cause an overheating condition. As a result, damage to major engine components could
occur. Using both the CHT sensor and fail-safe cooling strategy, the PCM prevents damage by
allowing air cooling of the engine and limp home capability. For additional information, refer to
Powertrain Control Software for Fail-Safe Cooling Strategy details. See: Description and
Operation/Powertrain Control Software

Fuel Pump Signal: Description and Operation
Fuel Pump Monitor
Applications Using a Fuel Pump Relay for Fuel Pump On/Off Control
The Fuel Pump Monitor (FPM) circuit is spliced into the Fuel Pump Power (FP PWR) circuit and is
used by the PCM for diagnostic purposes. The PCM sources a low current voltage down the FPM
circuit. With the fuel pump off, this voltage is pulled low by the path to ground through the fuel
pump. With the fuel pump off and the FPM circuit low, the PCM can verify that the FPM circuit and
the FP PWR circuit are complete from the FPM splice through the fuel pump to ground. This also
confirms that the FP PWR or FPM circuits are not shorted to power. With the fuel pump on, voltage
is now being supplied from the fuel pump relay to the FP PWR and FPM circuits. With the fuel
pump on and the FPM circuit high, the PCM can verify that the FP PWR circuit from the fuel pump
relay to the FPM splice is complete. It can also verify that the fuel pump relay contacts are closed
and there is a B+ supply to the fuel pump relay

Idle Air Control Valve
Nippondenso Idle Air Control (IAC) Valve Assembly
Hitachi Idle Air Control (IAC) Valve Assembly With Vent/Filter
The idle air control (IAC) valve assembly (Figure 117) and (Figure 118) controls engine idle speed
and provides a dash pot function. The IAC valve assembly meters intake air around the throttle
plate through a bypass within the IAC valve assembly and throttle body. The PCM determines the
desired idle speed or bypass air and signals the IAC valve assembly through a specified duty cycle.
The IAC valve responds by positioning the IAC valve to control the amount of bypassed air. The
PCM monitors engine rpm and increases or decreases the IAC duty cycle in order to achieve the
desired rpm.

Hitachi Idle Air Control (IAC) Valve Assembly With Air-Assist Injectors
On applications with air-assisted injectors, the AC valve (Figure 119) also supplies a small amount
of air into the path of the fuel injectors. The jet of air causes an increase in fuel atomization at low
speed and light load conditions.
NOTE: The IAC Valve Assembly is NOT ADJUSTABLE and CANNOT BE CLEANED.
The IAC valve (part of throttle body assembly) has an internal diode on some applications. If the
internal diode is measured in crossed terminal position with a digital multimeter, there will be an
incorrect or negative reading. It is important that the mating component and harness connectors
correctly oriented. Diagnostic procedures emphasize this importance.
The PCM uses the IAC valve assembly to control: ^
No touch start
^ Cold engine fast idle for rapid warm-up
^ Idle (corrects for engine load)
^ Stumble or stalling on deceleration (provides a dash pot function)
^ Over-temperature idle boost.
^ Air Assist to Injectors.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

<--> [Information Bus] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3216
Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contain the diagrams that show the complete details for
each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
WARNINGS
^ Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
^ Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires being under a vehicle.
^ Be sure that the Ignition Switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the
procedure.
^ Set the parking brake when working on any vehicle. An automatic transmission should be in
PARK. A manual transmission should be in NEUTRAL.
^ Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area to avoid danger of carbon monoxide.
^ Keep away from moving parts, especially the fan and belts, when the engine is running.

Troubleshooting wiring harness and connector hidden concerns
The illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation in each illustration.
NOTE: Several components, such as the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), utilize gold plated
terminals in their connections to the wiring harness. If those terminals need to be replaced, they
must be replaced with a gold plated terminal.

Module Communication Network: Description and Operation
The module communications network consists of the following items:
^ Standard Corporate Protocol (SCP) communications network
^ International Standards Organization (ISO) communications network
^ Generic Electronic Module (GEM)
^ Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
^ Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) module
^ Restraint Control Module (RCM)
^ Instrument Cluster (IC)

Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Module Communication Network
<--> [Information Bus] > Component Information > Description and Operation > Description and Operation > Page 3236
Module Communication Network: Description and Operation Principles and Operation
The vehicle has two module communications networks. The Standard Corporate Protocol (SCP)
network, which is an unshielded twisted pair cable (data bus plus, circuit 914 [TN/OG] and data bus
minus, circuit 915 [PK/LB]); and the International Standards Organization (ISO) 9141 network
which is a single wire (circuit 70 [LB/WH]). The diagnostic tool can connect to both networks
through the Data Link Connector (DLC). This makes diagnosis and testing of these systems easier
by allowing one smart tester to be able to diagnose and control any module on the two networks
from one connector. The DLC can be found under the instrument panel on the driver side.
The SCP communication network will remain operational even with the severing of one of the bus
wires. Communications will also continue if one of the bus wires is shorted to ground or voltage, or
if some, but not all, termination resistors are lost.
The ISO 9141 communication network does not permit inter-module communication. When the
diagnostic tool communicates to modules on the ISO 9141 communication network, the diagnostic
tool must ask for all information; the modules cannot initiate communications.
Unlike the SCP, the ISO 9141 communication network will not function if the wire is shorted to
ground or battery voltage. Also, if one of the modules on the ISO 9141 communication network
loses power or shorts internally, communications to that module will fail.
There are two modules linked to the SCP communication network and three modules linked to the
ISO 9141 communication network.
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is on the SCP communication network. The PCM controls
the engine for better fuel economy, emissions control and failure mode detection and storage.
The Passive Anti-theft System (PATS) is integrated into the PCM module. The PCM/PATS system
is connected to the vehicle electrical system, the transceiver module, the vehicle SCP
communications network and the vehicle anti-theft indicator located in the Instrument Cluster (IC).
The PCM module uses a microprocessor to control the system functions as well as illumination of
the anti-theft indicator. The illumination command is sent from the PCM through the SCP
communications network to the IC, which in turn sends power to the anti-theft indicator. The PCM
module microprocessor stores the ignition key codes in non-volatile memory. The PCM and IC
modules can be diagnosed through the data link connector. For additional IC information, refer to
Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators.
The Restraint Control Module (RCM) is on the ISO 9141 communication network. The RCM
controls the deployment of the air bags based on sensor input.
The Generic Electronic Module (GEM) is on the ISO 9141 communication network. The GEM
controls a variety of systems:
^ rear wiper
^ cargo lamps
^ interior lamps
^ exterior lamps
^ accessory delay
^ perimeter anti-theft (if equipped)
For additional GEM information, refer to Multifunction Electronic Control Module (General Module).
The Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) control module is on the ISO 9141 communication network. The
ABS module controls the brake pressure to the four wheels to keep the vehicle under control while
braking.

Module Communication Network: Description and Operation Principles of Operation
Some modules support the ability to change specified factory configuration settings and preset
preference items. The process used to change the settings and customer preference items is
module configuration. There are two different methods of module configuration:
^ Programmable Module Installation (PMI)
^ customer preference items
There are three storage locations for module configuration information. One primary storage
location and two secondary (or backup) storage locations.
^ Primary location is the memory of the specific module.
^ First backup location is the VID block memory of the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
^ Second backup is the As-Built Data Center.
During PMI, the diagnostic tool will attempt to extract the module configuration information from the
module to be changed. If this is unsuccessful, the diagnostic tool will use the first backup and
attempt to extract the module configuration information from the VID block in the PCM. If this also
fails, the diagnostic tool will display instructions to contact the As-Built Data Center. This is the only
time the As-Built Data Center should be contacted.
Programmable Module Installation (PMI)
NOTE: If the powertrain control module (PCM) needs to have a powertrain calibration flash
programmed, refer to Computers and Control Systems. Make sure to use the flash cable when
programming calibrations or running a PMI routine on the PCM.
The PMI configuration method is used when a new programmable module is to be installed. During
the PMI routine the diagnostic tool attempts to gather two pieces of information: ^
option content information from the old module (module configuration and customer preference
settings)
^ the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) from the PCM
During PMI the diagnostic tool first looks to the PCM for the VIN of the vehicle. Once the VIN is
retrieved the diagnostic tool will carry out a self-test of the suspect module to determine if the
module has been configured. ^
If DTC B2477 is present the module does not contain complete configuration information. The PMI
routine will then halt and give instructions on how to proceed.
^ If DTC B2477 is not present the module will allow the diagnostic tool to retrieve its option content
information. The diagnostic tool will then store the option content information and the VIN.
The diagnostic tool can store the combined option content information and VIN for only one module
at a time. Once information is stored, the diagnostic tool cannot be used to retrieve any other
option content information without erasing the previous option content information. Make sure the
new module is on hand for installation before retrieving option content information data from the old
module.
After the new module is installed, use the diagnostic tool to restore the option content information
into the new module.
Vehicle Identification (VID) Block
NOTE: ^
If the PCM needs to have a powertrain calibration flash programmed, refer to Computers and
Control Systems. Make sure to use the flash cable when programming calibrations or running a
PMI routine on the PCM.
^ When carrying out a PMI routine on any non-PCM module, use the OBDII cable.
^ Flash programming powertrain calibrations onto the PCM is different than PMI. It has no effect on
the backup data in the VID block memory area of the PCM.
The PCM contains a memory area called a vehicle identification (VID) block. A portion of the VID
block is used to store the backup data for each programmable module on the vehicle.
The VID block is the first backup of information when using the PMI configuration method. If the
diagnostic tool cannot retrieve option content information from the suspect module, the diagnostic
tool will attempt to extract backup information from the VID block of the PCM.
The VID block is not related to or affected by the powertrain calibration information stored in the
PCM. If a new powertrain calibration has been flashed onto the PCM, the VID block will not be
affected.
If using the PMI routine to install a new PCM, the diagnostic tool will reprogram only VID
information. The engine calibration information may still need to be flashed. For more information,
refer to Computers and Control Systems for flash programming information.
As-Built Data Center
The As-Built Data Center keeps a record of the vehicle configuration in a database that is
retrievable using the VIN. The As-Built Data Center records the applicable module configurations
stored in each module before the vehicle leaves the factory. The As-Built Data Center will always
reflect the original build of the vehicle as it left the factory. Only contact the As-Built Data Center
when directed to do so by the diagnostic tool.

Customer Preference Items
This method is used to enable or disable module-controlled items or systems to suit the preference
of the customer. Not all features controlled by the module are listed in this configuration method.
Refer to the Module Configuration Index for a list of features for each module. See: Testing and
Inspection/Module Configuration/Scan Tool Testing/Module Configuration Index
If a feature is changed using the customer preference items configuration method, the changed
information will not be stored in the PCM VID block. The VID block will retain the original settings
as they were recorded when the vehicle left the factory.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
Check Engine, Service Engine Soon Or ISO Standard Engine Symbol
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) (Figure 15) alerts the driver that the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) has detected an On Board Diagnostic (OBD) II emission-related component or
system fault. When this occurs, an OBD II Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be set.
^ The MIL is located on the instrument cluster and is labeled CHECK ENGINE, SERVICE ENGINE
SOON or ISO standard engine symbol (Figure 16).
^ Power is supplied to the MIL whenever the ignition switch is in the RUN or START position.
^ The MIL will remain on in the RUN/START mode as a bulb check during the instrument cluster
proveout for approximately 4 seconds.
^ If the MIL remains on after the bulb check: The PCM illuminates the MIL for an emission related concern and a DTC will be present.
- The instrument cluster will illuminate the MIL if the PCM does not send a control message to the
instrument cluster.
- The PCM is operating in the Hardware Limited Operation Strategy (HLOS).
- The MIL circuit is shorted to ground.
^ If the MIL remains off (during the bulb check); Bulb is damaged.
- MIL circuit is open.
^ To turn off the MIL after a repair, a reset command from the Scan Tool must be sent, or three
consecutive drive cycles must be completed without a fault.
^ For any MIL concern, go to Symptom Charts. See: Testing and Inspection/Reading and Clearing
Diagnostic Trouble Codes/Reading Diagnostic Trouble Codes/Performance Diagnostic
Procedures/Quick Test
^ If the MIL blinks at a steady rate, a severe misfire condition could possibly exist.
^ If the MIL blinks erratically, an intermittent open B+ to the bulb or an intermittent short to ground
in the MIL circuit exist. Also, the PCM can reset while cranking if battery voltage is low.

Oil Temperature Sensor For ECM: Description and Operation
Engine Oil Temperature
Engine Oil Temperature (EOT) Sensor
The Engine Oil Temperature (EOT) sensor (Figure 29) is a thermistor device in which resistance
changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature
increases and increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects the voltage
drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to
temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in a series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The EOT measures the temperature of the engine oil. The EOT sensor is similar in construction to
the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor. On some applications, EOT input to the PCM is
used to initiate a soft engine shutdown. This prevents engine damage from occurring as a result of
high oil temperature.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

[Oxygen Sensor] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3301
Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views

Heated Oxygen Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Heated Oxygen Sensor
Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S)
The Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) (Figure 32) detects the presence of oxygen in the exhaust and
produces a variable voltage according to the amount of oxygen detected. A high concentration of
oxygen (lean air/fuel ratio) in the exhaust produces a low voltage signal less than 0.4 volt. A low
concentration of oxygen (rich air/fuel ratio) produces a high voltage signal greater than 0.6 volt. The
HO2S provides feedback to the PCM indicating air/fuel ratio in order to achieve a near
stoichiometric air/fuel ratio of 14.7:1 during closed loop engine operation. The HO2S generates a
voltage between 0.0 and 1.1 volts.
Embedded with the sensing element is the HO2S heater. The heating element heats the sensor to
temperatures of 800°C (1400°F). At approximately 300°C (600°F) the engine can enter closed loop
operation. The VPWR circuit supplies voltage to the heater and the PCM will complete the ground
when the proper conditions occur. For model year 1998 a new HO2S heater and heater control
system are installed on some vehicles. The high power heater reaches closed loop fuel control
temperatures. The use of this heater requires that the HO2S heater control be duty cycled, to
prevent damage to the heater. The 6 ohm design is not interchangeable with new style 3.3 ohm
heater.

Upstream Heated and Downstream Heated Oxygen Sensors
The HO2S provide the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with voltage and frequency information
related to the oxygen content of the exhaust gas. (Refer to the PCM Inputs for a description of how
the HO2S operates.)
In addition to providing the PCM with indications of how rich/lean the engine is operating, the
upstream HO2S signal serves as an input to the HO2S monitor. The downstream HO2S signal is
an input to the Catalyst Efficiency monitor. (Refer to the OBD II Monitors for specific information on
these monitors.)

Pressure Feedback Exhaust Sensor: Description and Operation
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 86) is a ceramic, capacitive-type pressure
transducer that monitors the differential pressure across a metering orifice located in the orifice
tube assembly. The differential pressure feedback sensor receives this signal through two hoses
referred to as the downstream pressure hose (REF SIGNAL) and upstream pressure hose (HI
SIGNAL). The HI and REF hose connections are marked on the aluminum differential pressure
feedback EGR sensor housing for identification (note that the HI signal uses a larger diameter
hose). The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor outputs a voltage proportional to the
pressure drop across the metering orifice and supplies it to the PCM as EGR flow rate feedback.
Tube Mounted Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor

Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Pressure Feedback Exhaust
Sensor, EGR > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Page 3378
Tube Mounted Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The tube mounted differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 87) is identical in operation
as the larger metal or plastic DPFE sensors and uses a 1.0 volt offset. The HI and REF hose
connections are marked on the underside of the sensor.

This article supersedes TSB 04-21-07 to update the service procedure and to clarify this TSB
applies to all powertrain control module (PCM) reprogramming, with or without PCM replacement.
ISSUE PCMs may need to be reprogrammed or replaced as part of a repair. Additional vehicle
concerns may be caused if proper programming procedures are not followed.
ACTION Use the following procedure to reprogram PCMs.
Verify repair after reprogramming.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
PRELIMINARY STEPS - Existing PCM
Reprogramming Or PCM Replacement
1. Connect a battery charger to vehicle.
2. Use WDS if available.
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules - Computers
and Control Systems > Powertrain Control Module <--> [Engine Control Module] > Component Information > Technical
Service Bulletins > Engine Controls - General PCM Programming Procedures > Page 3385
a. Make sure WDS is docked or attached to vehicle battery supply.
b. Verify WDS software is at the latest release level.
3. If there is a communication error, attempt to communicate with a different diagnostic scan tool,
such as NGS, NGS+, VCM or another WDS.
NOTE
IF COMMUNICATION STILL CANNOT BE ESTABLISHED, VOLTAGE DROP PCM POWERS,
GROUNDS, AND CHECK VREF.
PCM REPLACEMENT - STANDARD
1. Open WDS vehicle session with original PCM installed in vehicle. If the original PCM is not able
to communicate, to open a session, proceed to the Blank Path Programming procedure.
2. Install the new PCM.
NOTE
IF WDS NEEDS TO BE USED ON A DIFFERENT VEHICLE WHILE THE NEW PCM IS BEING
INSTALLED, PLACE THE VEHICLE SESSION ON "HOLD" FOR USE LATER.
3. Attempt to start the vehicle.
4. Run KOEO Self Test to check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) in PCM.
5. Check for DTC P0602/P0605/P1639.
a. If DTC P0602/P0605/P1639 is present then Programmable Module Installation (PMI) procedure
must be performed. Use the WDS session opened at Step 1.
b. If DTC P0602/P0605/P1639 is not present, then verify Programmable Parameters are properly
set such as tire size, axle ratio, etc.
6. Check for DTC B2900.
a. If DTC B2900 is present, perform PMI on the ABS module. Do Not replace ABS module for this
procedure when directed. You may be prompted to enter the 9 lines of PCM As-Built data during
this procedure.
b. If DTC B2900 is not present proceed to Step 7.
7. Diagnose all other DTCs following normal diagnostic procedures.
REPROGRAMMING DOES NOT COMPLETE OR FAILS - Existing PCM Reprogramming Or PCM
Replacement
1. Verify all cables are properly connected.
2. Verify vehicle battery is at proper charge level.
3. Verify scan tool battery is at proper charge level.
4. Attempt reprogramming procedure again.
5. If reprogramming still does not complete properly, save current session, reboot WDS, open
previous session, and attempt reprogramming again.
6. If reprogramming still does not complete or you are now unable to communicate with PCM,
proceed to the Blank Path Programming procedure.
BLANK PATH PROGRAMMING - Existing PCM Reprogramming Or PCM Replacement
Perform this procedure prior to PCM replacement if a vehicle comes in with a PCM that will not
communicate, or if steps earlier in this TSB directed you to this procedure.
1. Verify powers and grounds to PCM by loading and voltage drop testing circuits.
2. Follow Pin Point Tests to verify network integrity.
NOTE
IGNITION MUST REMAIN IN THE OFF POSITION UNTIL PERFORMING STEP 8. DO NOT
TURN THE KEY ON WHEN WDS IS

Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor
Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure (TMAP) Sensor
The Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor (TMAP) (Figure 40) consists of a Manifold
Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor and an integrated thermistor. The thermistor part of the sensor is
currently not being used. The MAP part of the sensor measures intake manifold air absolute
pressure. The PCM uses information from the MAP sensor, Throttle Position (TP) sensor, mass air
flow (MAF) sensor, engine coolant temperature (ECT) or cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor
and crankshaft position (CKP) sensor to determine how much exhaust gas is introduced into the
intake manifold.

Mass Air Flow Sensor: Description and Operation
Mass Air Flow Sensor
Typical Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor
Diagram Of Air Flow Through Throttle Body Contacting MAF Sensor Hot And Cold Wire Terminals
The Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor uses a hot wire sensing element to measure the amount of air
entering the engine. Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at
200°C (392°F) above ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire (Figure 35). If the
hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced, then the entire assembly must be replaced.
Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.
The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the air mass flow.
The MAF sensor then outputs an analog voltage signal to the PCM proportional to the intake air
mass. The PCM calculates the required fuel injector pulse width in order to provide the desired
air/fuel ratio (Figure 36). This input is also used in determining transmission Electronic Pressure
Control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling.

Camshaft Position Sensor
The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor detects the position of the camshaft. The CMP sensor
identifies when piston No.1 is on its compression stroke. A signal is then sent to the powertrain
control module (PCM) and used for synchronizing the firing of sequential fuel injectors. The Coil On
Plug (COP) Ignition applications also use the CMP signal to select the proper ignition coil to fire.
The input circuit to the PCM is referred to as the CMP input or circuit.

Clutch Pedal Position Switch
Typical Clutch Pedal Position (CPP)/Park-Neutral Position (PNP) Switches
The Clutch Pedal Position (CPP) switch (Figure 24) is an input to the PCM indicating the clutch
pedal position and, in some manual transmission applications, both the clutch pedal engagement
position and the gear shift position. The PCM provides a 5-volt reference (VREF) signal to the CPP
switch and/or a Park/Neutral Position (PNP) switch (on the CPP signal line). If the CPP switch
(either or both CPP and PNP switches are closed) is closed, indicating the clutch pedal is engaged
and the shift lever is in the NEUTRAL position, the output voltage (5 volts) from the PCM is
grounded through the signal return line to the PCM, and there is 1 volt or less. One volt or less
indicates there is a reduced load on the engine. If the CPP switch (or PNP switch on vehicle or
both CPP and PNP switches open on the vehicle) is open, meaning the clutch pedal is disengaged
(all systems) and the shift lever is not in NEUTRAL position (PNP switch systems), the input on the
CPP signal to the PCM will be approximately 5 volts. Then, the 5-volt signal input at the PCM will
indicate a load on the engine. The PCM uses the load information in mass air flow and fuel
calculations.

Engine Coolant Temperature
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor (Figure 27) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the
temperature increases, and increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance
affects the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in a series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The ECT measures the temperature of the engine coolant. The sensor is threaded into an engine
coolant passage. The ECT sensor is similar in construction to the IAT sensor.

Crankshaft Position Sensor (Integrated Ignition Systems)
Three Different Types Of Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensors
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is a magnetic transducer mounted on the engine block
adjacent to a pulse wheel located on the crankshaft. By monitoring the crankshaft mounted pulse
wheel, the CKP is the primary sensor for ignition information to the powertrain control module
(PCM). The trigger wheel has a total of 35 teeth spaced 10 degrees apart with one empty space for
a missing tooth. The 6.8L ten cylinder pulse wheel has 39 teeth spaced 9 degrees apart and one 9
degree empty space for a missing tooth. By monitoring the trigger wheel, the CKP indicates
crankshaft position and speed information to the PCM. By monitoring the missing tooth, the CKP is
also able to identify piston travel in order to synchronize the ignition system and provide a way of
tracking the angular position of the crankshaft relative to fixed reference (Figure 25).

Engine Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor
Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) Sensor
The Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) sensor (Figure 26) is a thermistor device in which
resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as
temperature increases, and increases as temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects
the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM
corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor is installed in the aluminum cylinder head and
measures the metal temperature. The CHT sensor can provide complete engine temperature
information and can be used to infer coolant temperature. If the CHT sensor conveys an
overheating condition to the PCM, the PCM would then initiate a fail-safe cooling strategy based on
information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system failure such as low coolant or coolant loss
could cause an overheating condition. As a result, damage to major engine components could
occur. Using both the CHT sensor and fail-safe cooling strategy, the PCM prevents damage by
allowing air cooling of the engine and limp home capability. For additional information, refer to
Powertrain Control Software for Fail-Safe Cooling Strategy details. See: Description and
Operation/Powertrain Control Software

Intake Air Temperature Sensor
Intake Air Temperature (IAT)
The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensors (Figure 33) and integrated Mass Air Flow (MAF) type
(Figure 36), are thermistor devices in which resistance changes with temperature The electrical
resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and increases as the
temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects the voltage drop across the sensor
terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a

total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in a series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The IAT provides air temperature information to the PCM. The PCM uses the air temperature
information as a correction factor in the calculation of fuel, spark and MAF.
The IAT sensor provides a quicker temperature change response time than the ECT or CHT
sensor.
Supercharged vehicles use (2) IAT sensors. Both sensors are thermistor type devices and operate
as above. However, one is located before the supercharger at the air cleaner for standard OBD
II/cold weather input, while a second sensor (IAT2) is located after the supercharger in the intake
manifold. The IAT2 sensor located after the supercharger provides air temperature information to
the PCM to control border-line spark and to help determine intercooler efficiency.
Currently two types of IAT2 sensors are used. A screw in type (Figure 33) and an integrated type,
witch is part of the Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure (TMAP) sensor (Figure 40). The TMAP
sensor consists of a IAT thermistor and a Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor. The
thermistor portion of the TMAP is used for IAT2 function and operates in the same manner as a
non-integrated IAT2. For additional information on the MAP portion of the TMAP, refer to the
Thermal Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor description and operation.

Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views

Heated Oxygen Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Heated Oxygen Sensor
Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S)
The Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) (Figure 32) detects the presence of oxygen in the exhaust and
produces a variable voltage according to the amount of oxygen detected. A high concentration of
oxygen (lean air/fuel ratio) in the exhaust produces a low voltage signal less than 0.4 volt. A low
concentration of oxygen (rich air/fuel ratio) produces a high voltage signal greater than 0.6 volt. The
HO2S provides feedback to the PCM indicating air/fuel ratio in order to achieve a near
stoichiometric air/fuel ratio of 14.7:1 during closed loop engine operation. The HO2S generates a
voltage between 0.0 and 1.1 volts.
Embedded with the sensing element is the HO2S heater. The heating element heats the sensor to
temperatures of 800°C (1400°F). At approximately 300°C (600°F) the engine can enter closed loop
operation. The VPWR circuit supplies voltage to the heater and the PCM will complete the ground
when the proper conditions occur. For model year 1998 a new HO2S heater and heater control
system are installed on some vehicles. The high power heater reaches closed loop fuel control
temperatures. The use of this heater requires that the HO2S heater control be duty cycled, to
prevent damage to the heater. The 6 ohm design is not interchangeable with new style 3.3 ohm
heater.

Oxygen Sensors
Upstream Heated and Downstream Heated Oxygen Sensors
The HO2S provide the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with voltage and frequency information
related to the oxygen content of the exhaust gas. (Refer to the PCM Inputs for a description of how
the HO2S operates.)
In addition to providing the PCM with indications of how rich/lean the engine is operating, the
upstream HO2S signal serves as an input to the HO2S monitor. The downstream HO2S signal is
an input to the Catalyst Efficiency monitor. (Refer to the OBD II Monitors for specific information on
these monitors.)

Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Switch
The Power Steering Pressure (PSP) switch (Figure 37) monitors the hydraulic pressure within the
power steering system. The PSP switch is a normally closed switch that opens as the hydraulic
pressure increases The PCM uses the input signal from the PSP switch to compensate for
additional loads on the engine by adjusting the idle rpm and preventing engine stall during parking
maneuvers. Also, the PSP switch signals the PCM to adjust transmission electronic pressure
control (EPC) pressure during the increased engine load, for example during parking maneuvers.

Pressure Feedback Exhaust Sensor: Description and Operation
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 86) is a ceramic, capacitive-type pressure
transducer that monitors the differential pressure across a metering orifice located in the orifice
tube assembly. The differential pressure feedback sensor receives this signal through two hoses
referred to as the downstream pressure hose (REF SIGNAL) and upstream pressure hose (HI
SIGNAL). The HI and REF hose connections are marked on the aluminum differential pressure
feedback EGR sensor housing for identification (note that the HI signal uses a larger diameter
hose). The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor outputs a voltage proportional to the
pressure drop across the metering orifice and supplies it to the PCM as EGR flow rate feedback.

Tube Mounted Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The tube mounted differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 87) is identical in operation
as the larger metal or plastic DPFE sensors and uses a 1.0 volt offset. The HI and REF hose
connections are marked on the underside of the sensor.

Throttle Position Sensor: Description and Operation
Throttle Position Sensor
Typical Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
The throttle position (TP) sensor (Figure 41) is a rotary potentiometer sensor that provides a signal
to the PCM that is linearly proportional to the throttle plate/shaft position. The sensor housing has a
three-blade electrical connector that may be gold plated. The gold plating increases corrosion
resistance on terminals and increases connector durability. The TP sensor is mounted on the
throttle body. As the TP sensor is rotated by the throttle shaft, four operating conditions are
determined by the PCM from the TP. Those conditions are closed throttle (includes idle or
deceleration), part throttle (includes cruise or moderate acceleration), wide open throttle (includes
maximum acceleration or de-choke on crank), and throttle angle rate.
The TP sensor monitors throttle position and provides an electrical signal to the PCM. It is
monitored by the OBD II system for component integrity, system functionality, and faults that can
cause emissions levels to exceed standards set in government regulations. For additional
information on the TP sensor, refer to Electronic EC System Hardware-PCM Inputs.

Vehicle Speed Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Vehicle Speed Sensor
Typical Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)
The Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) (Figure 44) is a variable reluctance or Hall-effect sensor that
generates a waveform with a frequency that is proportional to the speed of the vehicle. If the
vehicle is moving at a relatively low velocity, the sensor produces a signal with a low frequency. As
the vehicle velocity increases, the sensor generates a signal with a higher frequency. The PCM
uses the frequency signal generated by the VSS (and other inputs) to control such parameters as
fuel injection, ignition control, transmission/transaxle shift scheduling and torque converter clutch
scheduling.

Vehicle Speed Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Output
Powertrain Control Module - Vehicle Speed Output (VSO)
The PCM-VSO (Powertrain Control Module - Vehicle Speed Output) speed signal subsystem
generates vehicle speed information for distribution to the vehicle's electrical/electronic modules
and subsystems that require vehicle speed data. This subsystem senses the transmission output
shaft speed with a sensor. The data is processed by the PCM, and distributed as a hard-wired
signal or as a multiplexed data message.
The key features of the PCM-VSO system are to: ^
Infer vehicle movement from the output shaft sensor signal
^ Convert transmission output shaft rotational information to vehicle speed information
^ Compensate for tire size and axle ratio with a programmed calibration variable
^ Utilize a transfer case sensor for four wheel drive applications
^ Distribute vehicle speed information as a multiplexed message and/or an analog signal
The signal from a non-contact shaft sensor (Output Shaft Sensor--OSS or Transfer Case Shaft
Sensor--TCSS) mounted on the transmission (automatics, manuals, or 4X4 transfer cases) is
sensed directly by the PCM. The PCM converts the OSS or TCSS information to 8000 pulses per
mile, based on a tire and axle ratio conversion factor. This conversion factor is programmed into
the PCM at the time the vehicle is assembled and can be reprogrammed in the field for servicing
changes in the tire size and axle ratio. The PCM transmits the computed vehicle speed and
distance traveled information to all the vehicle speed signal users on the vehicle. VSO information
can be transmitted by a hard-wired interface between the vehicle speed signal user and the PCM,
or by Speed and Odometer SCP multiplexed data messages.
The VSO hard-wired signal wave form is a DC square wave with a voltage level of 0 to VBAT.
Typical output operating range is 2.22Hz per MPH ( 1.3808 Hz pr 1 Km/h). Multiplexed data for
speed and distance data are transmitted as separate SCP messages over the SCP multiplex link.

Variable Valve Timing Solenoid: Description and Operation Variable Cam Timing System
Overview
The Variable Cam Timing System allows the exhaust cam to advance and retard at varying engine
speeds. The purpose of this is to reduce exhaust emissions and increase fuel economy. As the
exhaust cam retards in relation to the crankshaft position, residual exhaust gases are left in the
combustion chamber. The residual gases cool the combustion chamber and are inert when mixed
with the incoming fresh charge of fuel and air. This results in better fuel economy and lower
Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) and Hydrocarbons (HC) the engine produces. The Exhaust Gas
Recalculation System (EGR) is unnecessary on the 2.0L (4V) engine due to this feature.
Variable Cam Timing
Variable Cam Timing System
The Variable Cam Timing (VCT) System consists of the control solenoid, five-tooth pulse ring (4+1)
on exhaust camshaft, Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor, Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT)
sensor, Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor, Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor, Crankshaft Position (CKP)
sensor, Powertrain Control Module (PCM) (Figure 127).
1. The powertrain control module (PCM) receives input signals from the intake air temperature
(IAT) sensor, engine coolant temperature (ECT)
sensor, camshaft position (CMP) sensor, mass air flow (MAF) sensor and crankshaft position
(CKP) sensor for determining the operating conditions of the engine.
2. The Variable Cam Timing (VCT) system is enabled by the PCM when the proper conditions are
met. The PCM disables the VCT system if a
fault is detected.
3. The PCM calculates relative cam position using the CMP sensor and data from the (4+1) pulse
ring mounted on the exhaust camshaft. Relative
cam position is calculated by measuring the time between the rising edge of Profile Ignition Pickup
(PIP) and the falling edge of VCT pulse.
4. The PCM continually calculates a cam position error value based on the difference between the
desired and actual position and a duty cycle is
commanded for the VCT solenoid valve. Engine oil is allowed to flow to the VCT unit.
5. Oil flows to either side of the piston chamber changing a linear motion from the piston to a
rotation motion from the helical mechanism in the
VCT unit. During closed loop the PCM outputs a revised duty cycle to the VCT solenoid valve to
correct for cam position error.

Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Solenoid Valve
The VCT solenoid valve (Figure 128) is an integral part of the VCT system. The solenoid valve
controls the flow of engine oil to the variable cam timing unit assembly. As the PCM duty cycles the
solenoid valve, oil is allowed to flow to the VCT unit assembly and advance or retard the cam
timing.
Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Unit Assembly
Variable Cam Timing Unit Assembly
The variable cam timing unit assembly (Figure 129) is coupled to the camshaft through a helical
spline in the VCT unit chamber. When the flow of oil is shifted from one side of the chamber to the
other, the differential change in oil pressure forces the piston to move linearly along the axis of the
camshaft. This linear motion is translated into rotational camshaft motion through the helical spline
coupling. A spring installed in the chamber is designed to hold the camshaft in the minimum
overlap position (5 degrees) when oil pressure is too low to maintain adequate position control. The
camshaft is allowed to rotate up to 30 degrees.

Vehicle Speed Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Vehicle Speed Sensor
Typical Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)
The Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) (Figure 44) is a variable reluctance or Hall-effect sensor that
generates a waveform with a frequency that is proportional to the speed of the vehicle. If the
vehicle is moving at a relatively low velocity, the sensor produces a signal with a low frequency. As
the vehicle velocity increases, the sensor generates a signal with a higher frequency. The PCM
uses the frequency signal generated by the VSS (and other inputs) to control such parameters as
fuel injection, ignition control, transmission/transaxle shift scheduling and torque converter clutch
scheduling.

Vehicle Speed Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Output
Powertrain Control Module - Vehicle Speed Output (VSO)
The PCM-VSO (Powertrain Control Module - Vehicle Speed Output) speed signal subsystem
generates vehicle speed information for distribution to the vehicle's electrical/electronic modules
and subsystems that require vehicle speed data. This subsystem senses the transmission output
shaft speed with a sensor. The data is processed by the PCM, and distributed as a hard-wired
signal or as a multiplexed data message.
The key features of the PCM-VSO system are to: ^
Infer vehicle movement from the output shaft sensor signal
^ Convert transmission output shaft rotational information to vehicle speed information
^ Compensate for tire size and axle ratio with a programmed calibration variable
^ Utilize a transfer case sensor for four wheel drive applications
^ Distribute vehicle speed information as a multiplexed message and/or an analog signal
The signal from a non-contact shaft sensor (Output Shaft Sensor--OSS or Transfer Case Shaft
Sensor--TCSS) mounted on the transmission (automatics, manuals, or 4X4 transfer cases) is
sensed directly by the PCM. The PCM converts the OSS or TCSS information to 8000 pulses per
mile, based on a tire and axle ratio conversion factor. This conversion factor is programmed into
the PCM at the time the vehicle is assembled and can be reprogrammed in the field for servicing
changes in the tire size and axle ratio. The PCM transmits the computed vehicle speed and
distance traveled information to all the vehicle speed signal users on the vehicle. VSO information
can be transmitted by a hard-wired interface between the vehicle speed signal user and the PCM,
or by Speed and Odometer SCP multiplexed data messages.
The VSO hard-wired signal wave form is a DC square wave with a voltage level of 0 to VBAT.
Typical output operating range is 2.22Hz per MPH ( 1.3808 Hz pr 1 Km/h). Multiplexed data for
speed and distance data are transmitted as separate SCP messages over the SCP multiplex link.

The secondary Air Injection Diverter (AIR diverter) valve (Figure 123) is used with the electric AIR
pump to provide on/off control of air to the exhaust manifold and catalytic converter. When the
electric AIR pump is on and vacuum is supplied to the AIR diverter valve, air passes the integral
check valve disk. When the electric AIR pump is off, and vacuum is removed from the AIR diverter
valve, the integral check valve disk is held on the seat and stops air from being drawn into the
exhaust system and prevents the back flow of the exhaust into the Secondary Air Injection System.

Catalytic Converter: Description and Operation Catalyst and Exhaust Systems
Overview
Generic Catalyst And Exhaust System
The Catalytic Converter and Exhaust Systems (Figure 133) work together to control the release of
harmful engine exhaust emissions into the atmosphere. The engine exhaust gas consists mainly of
Nitrogen (N), Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water Vapor (H2O). However, it also contains Carbon
Monoxide (CO), Oxides Of Nitrogen (NOx), Hydrogen (H), and various unburned Hydrocarbons
(HCs). CO, NOx, and HCs are major air pollutants, and their emission into the atmosphere must be
controlled.
The exhaust system generally consists of an exhaust manifold, front exhaust pipe, upstream
Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S), rear exhaust pipe, downstream HO2S, a muffler and an exhaust
tailpipe. The catalytic converter is installed between the front and rear exhaust pipes. Catalytic
converter efficiency is monitored by the On Board Diagnostic (OBD II) system. (Refer to OBD II
Monitors to Catalyst Efficiency Monitor-Federal Test Procedure for specific information.)
Catalytic Converter
A catalyst is a material that remains unchanged when it initiates and increases the speed of a
chemical reaction. A catalyst will also enable a chemical reaction to occur at a lower temperature.
The concentration of exhaust gas products released to the atmosphere must be controlled. The
catalytic converter assists in this task. It contains a catalyst in the form of a specially treated
ceramic honeycomb structure saturated with catalytically active precious metals. As the exhaust
gases come in contact with the catalyst, they are changed into mostly harmless products. The
catalyst initiates and speeds up heat producing chemical reactions of the exhaust gas components
so they are used up as much as possible.
Light Off Catalyst
As the catalyst heats up, converter efficiency rises rapidly. The point at which conversion efficiency
exceeds 50% is called catalyst light off. For most catalysts this point occurs at 475 to 575°F (246 to
301°C). A fast light catalyst is a Three Way Catalyst (TWC) that is located as close to the exhaust
manifold as possible. Because the light off catalyst is located close too the exhaust manifold it will
light off faster and reduce emissions quicker than the catalyst located under the body. Once the
catalyst lights off, the catalyst will quickly reach the maximum conversion efficiency for that
catalyst.
TWC Conversion Efficiency

Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Emission Control Systems > Catalytic Converter > Component
Information > Description and Operation > Catalyst and Exhaust Systems > Page 3611
TWC Conversion Efficiency Chart
A TWC requires a stoichiometric fuel ratio, 14.7 pounds of air to 1 pound of fuel (14.7:1), for high
conversion efficiency. In order to achieve these high efficiencies, the air/fuel ratio must be tightly
controlled with a narrow window of stoichiometry. Devations outside of this window will greatly
decrease the conversion efficiency (Figure 134). For example a rich mixture will decrease the HC
and CO conversion efficiency while a lean mixture will decreases the NOx conversion efficiency.
Exhaust System
The purpose of the exhaust system is to convey engine emissions from the exhaust manifold to the
atmosphere. Engine exhaust emissions are directed from the engine exhaust manifold to the
catalytic converter through the front exhaust pipe. An HO2S is mounted on the front exhaust pipe
before the catalyst. The catalytic converter reduces the concentration of carbon monoxide (CO),
unburned hydrocarbons (HCs) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) in the exhaust emissions to an
acceptable level. The reduced exhaust emissions are directed from the catalytic converter through
another HO2S mounted in the rear exhaust pipe and than on in the muffler. Lastly, the exhaust
emissions are directed to the atmosphere through an exhaust tailpipe.
Hardware
The downstream HO2S may be located after the light off catalyst or underbody catalyst. The
underbody catalyst may be in-line with the light off catalyst, or the underbody catalyst may be
common to two light off catalysts, forming a "Y" pipe configuration. For an exact configuration of the
catalyst and exhaust system, refer to Exhaust System.
Three Way Catalytic Converter
The three way catalytic (TWC) converter contains either platinum (Pt) and rhodium (Rh) or
palladium (Pd) and rhodium (Rh). The TWC converter catalyzes the oxidation reactions of
unburned HCs and CO and the reduction reaction of NOx. The three-way conversion can be best
accomplished by always operating the engine air fuel/ratio at or close to stoichiometry.
Exhaust Manifold/Runners
The exhaust manifold runners collect exhaust gases from engine cylinders. The number of exhaust
manifolds and exhaust manifold runners depends on the engine configuration and number of
cylinders.
Exhaust Pipes
Exhaust pipes are usually treated during manufacturing with an anti-corrosive coating agent to
increase the life of the product. The pipes serve as guides for the flow of exhaust gases from the
engine exhaust manifold through the catalytic converter and the muffler.
Upstream Heated and Downstream Heated Oxygen Sensors
The HO2S provide the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with voltage and frequency information
related to the oxygen content of the exhaust gas. (Refer to the PCM Inputs for a description of how
the HO2S operates.)
In addition to providing the PCM with indications of how rich/lean the engine is operating, the
upstream HO2S signal serves as an input to the HO2S monitor. The downstream HO2S signal is
an input to the Catalyst Efficiency monitor. (Refer to the OBD II Monitors for specific information on
these monitors.)
Muffler
Mufflers are usually treated during manufacturing with an anti-corrosive coating agent to increase
the life of the product. The muffler reduces the level of noise produced by the engine, and it also
reduces the noise produced by exhaust gases as they travel from the catalytic converter to the

On-Board Refueling Vapor Recovery Evaporative Emission System
The basic elements forming the ORVR system (Figure 101), (Figure 102) and (Figure 103)
operation are as follows when fuel is dispensed:
1. The fuel filler pipe forms a seal to prevent vapors from escaping the fuel tank, while liquid is
entering the fuel tank (liquid in the one inch
diameter tube blocks vapors from rushing back up the fuel filler pipe).
2. A fuel vapor control valve controls the flow of vapors out of the fuel tank (valve closes when
liquid level reaches a height associated with
the fuel tank usable capacity). This valve accomplishes the following: a. Limits the total amount of
fuel that can be dispensed into the fuel tank. b. Prevents liquid gasoline from exiting the fuel tank
when submerged (and also when tipped well beyond a horizontal plane as part of the
vehicle roll-over protection in road accidents).
c. Minimizes vapor flow resistance during anticipated refueling conditions.
3. Fuel vapor tubing connects the fuel vapor control valve to the EVAP canister. This routes the fuel
tank vapors (displaced by the incoming
liquid) to the EVAP canister.
4. A check valve in the bottom of the fuel filler pipe prevents liquid from rushing back up the fuel
filler pipe during the liquid flow variations
associated with the filler nozzle shut-off.
Between refueling events, the EVAP canister is purged with fresh air so that it may be used again
to store vapors accumulated engine soaks or subsequent refueling events. The vapors drawn off of
the carbon in the EVAP canister are consumed in the engine.
Refer to Evaporative Emissions System for information on the following Evaporative Emission
System components: liquid/vapor fuel discriminator, fuel filler pipe check valve, fill limit valve
assembly, fill limit vent valve assembly, fuel filler pipe flapper valve, fuel vapor control valve (fuel
tank mounted), ORVR T-connector assembly and EVAP canister.

EGR Vacuum Regulator Solenoid Data Chart
The EGR vacuum regulator solenoid (Figure 88) is an electromagnetic device which is used to
regulate the vacuum supply to the EGR valve. The solenoid contains a coil which magnetically
controls the position of a disc to regulate the vacuum. As the duty cycle to the coil increases, the
vacuum signal passed through the solenoid to the EGR valve also increases. Vacuum not directed
to the EGR valve is vented through the solenoid vent to atmosphere. Note that at 0% duty cycle (no
electrical signal applied), the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid allows some vacuum to pass, but not
enough to open the EGR valve.

Orifice Tube Assembly
The orifice tube assembly (Figure 90) is a section of tubing connecting the exhaust system to the
intake manifold. The assembly provides the flow path for the EGR to the intake manifold and also
contains the metering orifice and two pressure pick-up tubes. The internal metering orifice creates
a measurable pressure drop across it as the EGR valve opens and closes. This pressure
differential across the orifice is picked up by the differential pressure feedback EGR sensor which
provides feedback to the PCM.

EGR Valve
Test Graph
The EGR valve (Figure 89) in the Differential Pressure Feedback EGR system is a conventional,
vacuum-actuated EGR valve. The valve increases or decreases the flow of exhaust gas
recirculation. As vacuum applied to the EGR valve diaphragm overcomes the spring force, the
valve begins to open. As the vacuum signal weakens, at 5.4 kPa (1.6 in-Hg) or less, the spring
force closes the valve. The EGR valve is fully open at about 15 kPa (4.5 in-Hg).
Since EGR flow requirement varies greatly, providing service specifications on flow rate is
impractical. The on-board diagnostic system monitors the EGR valve function and triggers a
Diagnostic Trouble Code if the test criteria is not met. The EGR valve flow rate is not measured
directly as part of the field diagnostic procedures.

Overview
Electric EGR System
The electric EGR system uses exhaust gas recirculation to control the Oxides Of Nitrogen (NOx)
emissions just like vacuum operated systems. The only difference is the way in which the exhaust
gas is controlled.
The Electric EGR system consists of an electric motor/EGR valve integrated assembly, a PCM,
and connecting wiring. Additionally a MAP sensor is also required. Operation of the system is as
follows (Figure 91):
1. The EEGR system receives signals from the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) or Cylinder
Head Temperature (CHT) sensor, throttle
position (TP) sensor, mass air flow (MAF) sensor, crankshaft position (CKP) sensor and the
manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor to provide information on engine operating conditions to
the PCM. The engine must be warm, stable and running at a moderate load and rpm before the
EEGR system is activated. The PCM will deactivate EGR during idle, extended wide open throttle
or whenever a failure is detected in an EEGR component or EGR required input.
2. The PCM calculates the desired amount of EGR for a given set of engine operating conditions.
3. The PCM in turn will output signals to the EEGR motor to move (advance or retract) a certain
number of discrete steps. The electric
stepper motor will directly actuate the EGR valve, independent of engine vacuum. The EGR valve
is commanded from 0 to 52 discrete increments or "steps" to get the EGR valve from a fully closed
to full or partially open position. The position of the EGR valve determines the EGR flow.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Emission Control Systems > Exhaust Gas Recirculation > EGR Valve
> Component Information > Description and Operation > Differential Pressure Feedback EGR System > Page 3669
4. A MAP sensor is used to measure variations in manifold pressure as exhaust gas recirculation is
introduced into the intake manifold.
Variations in EGR being used will correlate to the MAP signal (increasing EGR will increase
manifold pressure values).

Electric EGR Motor/Valve Assembly

The electric EGR valve (Figure 92) and (Figure 93) is a water cooled motor/valve assembly. The
motor is commanded to move in 52 discrete steps as it acts directly on the the EGR valve. The
position of the valve determines the rate of EGR. The built in spring works to close the valve

Pressure Feedback Exhaust Sensor: Description and Operation
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 86) is a ceramic, capacitive-type pressure
transducer that monitors the differential pressure across a metering orifice located in the orifice
tube assembly. The differential pressure feedback sensor receives this signal through two hoses
referred to as the downstream pressure hose (REF SIGNAL) and upstream pressure hose (HI
SIGNAL). The HI and REF hose connections are marked on the aluminum differential pressure
feedback EGR sensor housing for identification (note that the HI signal uses a larger diameter
hose). The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor outputs a voltage proportional to the
pressure drop across the metering orifice and supplies it to the PCM as EGR flow rate feedback.

Tube Mounted Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The tube mounted differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 87) is identical in operation
as the larger metal or plastic DPFE sensors and uses a 1.0 volt offset. The HI and REF hose
connections are marked on the underside of the sensor.

Positive Crankcase Ventilation: Description and Operation
Overview
PCV System
The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) System (Figure 130) cycles crankcase gases back
through the engine where they are burned. The PCV valve regulates the amount of ventilating air
and blow-by gas to the intake manifold and prevents backfire from traveling into the crankcase. The
PCV valve should be mounted in a vertical position. On some applications, the PCV system is
connected to the evaporative emission system (refer to the VECI decal).
CAUTION: Do not remove the PCV system from the engine. Removal of the PCV system will
adversely affect the fuel economy and engine ventilation and result in shorter engine life.

Pressure Feedback Exhaust Sensor: Description and Operation
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 86) is a ceramic, capacitive-type pressure
transducer that monitors the differential pressure across a metering orifice located in the orifice
tube assembly. The differential pressure feedback sensor receives this signal through two hoses
referred to as the downstream pressure hose (REF SIGNAL) and upstream pressure hose (HI
SIGNAL). The HI and REF hose connections are marked on the aluminum differential pressure
feedback EGR sensor housing for identification (note that the HI signal uses a larger diameter
hose). The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor outputs a voltage proportional to the
pressure drop across the metering orifice and supplies it to the PCM as EGR flow rate feedback.

Page 3765
Tube Mounted Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The tube mounted differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 87) is identical in operation
as the larger metal or plastic DPFE sensors and uses a 1.0 volt offset. The HI and REF hose
connections are marked on the underside of the sensor.

Mass Air Flow Sensor: Description and Operation
Mass Air Flow Sensor
Typical Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor
Diagram Of Air Flow Through Throttle Body Contacting MAF Sensor Hot And Cold Wire Terminals
The Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor uses a hot wire sensing element to measure the amount of air
entering the engine. Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at
200°C (392°F) above ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire (Figure 35). If the
hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced, then the entire assembly must be replaced.
Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.
The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the air mass flow.
The MAF sensor then outputs an analog voltage signal to the PCM proportional to the intake air
mass. The PCM calculates the required fuel injector pulse width in order to provide the desired
air/fuel ratio (Figure 36). This input is also used in determining transmission Electronic Pressure
Control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Mass Air Flow Sensor <--> [Air Flow
Meter/Sensor] > Component Information > Locations > Page 3808
Some MAF sensors have Integrated Bypass Technology (IBT) with an integrated intake air
temperature (IAT) sensor. The present applications with IBT are: Focus, Escort (4V), 2.0L Cougar,
Escape, Taurus/Sable, Windstar, Explorer/Mountaineer and E-Series.

PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE VALVE.
5. Install the EVAP Emission Test Port Adapter that is provided with the Rotunda's Smoke Machine
to EVAP Canister Purge Valve test port.
NOTE
SPECIAL PROCEDURES HAVE BEEN DESIGNATED FOR WINDSTAR, LS, THUNDERBIRD &
PZEV FOCUS BECAUSE THEY HAVE A CHECK VALVE THAT WILL PREVENT SMOKE FROM
ENTERING THE FILLER NECK.
6. Connect black smoke hose nozzle tip to the EVAP Emission Test Port Adapter. For all except
Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus Use NGS or WDS to close CVS. (CVS WILL REOPEN
AFTER NINE (9) MINUTES OF CONTINUOUS OPERATION).
7. For all except Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus - Remove the fuel cap from the vehicle.
Depress remote starter button: Smoke will be introduced into the EVAP Emission System. Secure
the fuel cap once smoke is seen exiting from the fuel tank's neck area. For Windstar, LS,
Thunderbird & PZEV Focus, do not remove fuel cap. Depress starter button and introduce smoke to
system until it can be seen exiting the CVS (located by filler neck). Once smoke is seen, use NGS
or WDS to close CVS. (CVS WILL REOPEN AFTER NINE (9) MINUTES OF CONTINUOUS
OPERATION).
8. Press and release the remote starter button in intervals of approximately 15 seconds on and 15
seconds off. Use the halogen light provided with the Smoke Machine to look for smoke in the
engine compartment, EVAP hoses to EVAP Canister Purge Valve, CVS, carbon canister and area
around the fuel cap. Wiggle fuel vapor lines to check for leaks. Check for leaks in areas that are
difficult to access, such as connections on top of the tank where connections may be or inside
frame rails. Use the black light to ensure that there are no leaks. If a leak is detected, repair as
necessary. If the leak is not detected from the top, check under the bottom of vehicle. Inspect the
EVAP hoses running to the carbon canister, fuel filler neck, CVS, and EVAP Canister Purge Valve.
Go to LEAK VERIFICATION to verify any repair or if no leak is found.
LEAK VERIFICATION (METERED AIR SYSTEM)
1. Position the selector valve located on the Smoke Machine control panel to "METER".
2. Verify calibration of the flow meter by using the .020" calibrated leak orifice. To do this, insert air
supply hose (transparent hose) nozzle tip into appropriate EVAP System calibrated leak orifice
located on the front of the Smoke Machine panel.
3. TURN ON: Depress the remote starter button. Observe the position of the flow meter indicator
ball. Position the flow meter red pointer flag so it aligns with the measurement of the indicator ball.
Release the button and remove the air supply hose nozzle tip from the EVAP System calibrated
leak orifice.
NOTE
THIS FLOW METER CALIBRATION MEASUREMENT INDICATES THE VEHICLE PASS OR FAIL
CRITERIA BASED ON THE .020" EVAP SYSTEM LEAK STANDARD.

4. Connect the transparent air supply hose nozzle tip into the EVAP Service Test Port adapter.
5. Use NGS or WDS Diagnostic tool to CLOSE the CVS.
6. Depress the remote starter button on the Rotunda's Smoke Leak Detector. The indicator ball in
the flowmeter will go all the way to the top indicating the system is being pressurized. Continue to
depress the remote starter button until the ball stops descending. Once the indicator ball has
stopped descending, observe if it is above or below the red indicator flag. If performing this
verification following a repair, go to Step 7. If performing this verification after performing the
SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST PROCEDURE), go to Step 8.
7. Leak Verification After Repair
a. If the measurement is below the indicator flag the system has passed. The test procedure is
complete. Remove the Smoke Machine Test equipment from the vehicle and reconnect the large
EVAP Canister Purge Valve manifold vacuum hose and the test port's green cap.
b. If the measurement is above the indicator flag, repeat SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST
PROCEDURE).
8. Leak Verification After Passing SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST PROCEDURE)
a. If the measurement is below the indicator flag the system has passed, go to Step 9.
b. If the measurement is above the indicator flag, repeat SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST
PROCEDURE).
9. Using WDS Datalogger or NGS select the FTPV PID.
10. Remove Fuel Cap and turn the vehicle's ignition switch to the run position and check the FTPV
PID.
11. The nominal value for the FTPV PID is 2.6V. If the value is greater than 2.8V or less than 2.4V,
the FTP sensor is out of range and should be replaced. Verify the repair by checking to see if the
new sensor is in range. For all except Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus - if the sensor is
within range, the concern is no longer present. (Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus go to
Step 12.)
12. For Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus only verify that filler neck clamps are in good
working order and tightened. Repair as necessary. If no problem is found with clamps, replace the
fuel cap.

EVAP CANISTER PURGE VALVE & BRACKET ASSEMBLY (9F933) (SEE FIGURE 2) WILL
PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE VALVE.
5. Install the EVAP Emission Test Port Adapter that is provided with the Rotunda's Smoke Machine
to EVAP Canister Purge Valve test port.
NOTE
SPECIAL PROCEDURES HAVE BEEN DESIGNATED FOR WINDSTAR, LS, THUNDERBIRD &
PZEV FOCUS BECAUSE THEY HAVE A CHECK VALVE THAT WILL PREVENT SMOKE FROM
ENTERING THE FILLER NECK.
6. Connect black smoke hose nozzle tip to the EVAP Emission Test Port Adapter. For all except
Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus Use NGS or WDS to close CVS. (CVS WILL REOPEN
AFTER NINE (9) MINUTES OF CONTINUOUS OPERATION).
7. For all except Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus - Remove the fuel cap from the vehicle.
Depress remote starter button: Smoke will be introduced into the EVAP Emission System. Secure
the fuel cap once smoke is seen exiting from the fuel tank's neck area. For Windstar, LS,
Thunderbird & PZEV Focus, do not remove fuel cap. Depress starter button and introduce smoke to
system until it can be seen exiting the CVS (located by filler neck). Once smoke is seen, use NGS
or WDS to close CVS. (CVS WILL REOPEN AFTER NINE (9) MINUTES OF CONTINUOUS
OPERATION).
8. Press and release the remote starter button in intervals of approximately 15 seconds on and 15
seconds off. Use the halogen light provided with the Smoke Machine to look for smoke in the
engine compartment, EVAP hoses to EVAP Canister Purge Valve, CVS, carbon canister and area
around the fuel cap. Wiggle fuel vapor lines to check for leaks. Check for leaks in areas that are
difficult to access, such as connections on top of the tank where connections may be or inside
frame rails. Use the black light to ensure that there are no leaks. If a leak is detected, repair as
necessary. If the leak is not detected from the top, check under the bottom of vehicle. Inspect the
EVAP hoses running to the carbon canister, fuel filler neck, CVS, and EVAP Canister Purge Valve.
Go to LEAK VERIFICATION to verify any repair or if no leak is found.
LEAK VERIFICATION (METERED AIR SYSTEM)
1. Position the selector valve located on the Smoke Machine control panel to "METER".
2. Verify calibration of the flow meter by using the .020" calibrated leak orifice. To do this, insert air
supply hose (transparent hose) nozzle tip into appropriate EVAP System calibrated leak orifice
located on the front of the Smoke Machine panel.
3. TURN ON: Depress the remote starter button. Observe the position of the flow meter indicator
ball. Position the flow meter red pointer flag so it aligns with the measurement of the indicator ball.
Release the button and remove the air supply hose nozzle tip from the EVAP System calibrated
leak orifice.
NOTE
THIS FLOW METER CALIBRATION MEASUREMENT INDICATES THE VEHICLE PASS OR FAIL
CRITERIA BASED ON THE .020" EVAP SYSTEM LEAK STANDARD.

4. Connect the transparent air supply hose nozzle tip into the EVAP Service Test Port adapter.
5. Use NGS or WDS Diagnostic tool to CLOSE the CVS.
6. Depress the remote starter button on the Rotunda's Smoke Leak Detector. The indicator ball in
the flowmeter will go all the way to the top indicating the system is being pressurized. Continue to
depress the remote starter button until the ball stops descending. Once the indicator ball has
stopped descending, observe if it is above or below the red indicator flag. If performing this
verification following a repair, go to Step 7. If performing this verification after performing the
SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST PROCEDURE), go to Step 8.
7. Leak Verification After Repair
a. If the measurement is below the indicator flag the system has passed. The test procedure is
complete. Remove the Smoke Machine Test equipment from the vehicle and reconnect the large
EVAP Canister Purge Valve manifold vacuum hose and the test port's green cap.
b. If the measurement is above the indicator flag, repeat SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST
PROCEDURE).
8. Leak Verification After Passing SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST PROCEDURE)
a. If the measurement is below the indicator flag the system has passed, go to Step 9.
b. If the measurement is above the indicator flag, repeat SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST
PROCEDURE).
9. Using WDS Datalogger or NGS select the FTPV PID.
10. Remove Fuel Cap and turn the vehicle's ignition switch to the run position and check the FTPV
PID.
11. The nominal value for the FTPV PID is 2.6V. If the value is greater than 2.8V or less than 2.4V,
the FTP sensor is out of range and should be replaced. Verify the repair by checking to see if the
new sensor is in range. For all except Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus - if the sensor is
within range, the concern is no longer present. (Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus go to
Step 12.)
12. For Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus only verify that filler neck clamps are in good
working order and tightened. Repair as necessary. If no problem is found with clamps, replace the
fuel cap.

Fuel Pressure Regulator
Fuel Pressure Regulator
The fuel pressure regulator (Figure 70) is attached to the fuel rail downstream of the fuel injectors.
It regulates fuel pressure supplied to the fuel injectors. The regulator is a diaphragm-operated relief
valve. One side of the diaphragm senses fuel pressure and the other side is connected to the
intake manifold vacuum. Fuel pressure is established by a spring preload applied to the diaphragm.
Balancing one side of the diaphragm with manifold vacuum maintains a constant fuel pressure drop
across the fuel injectors. Fuel pressure is high when engine vacuum is low. Excess fuel is
bypassed through the fuel pressure regulator and returned through the fuel return line to the fuel
tank.

Fuel Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation
Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor
Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) Sensor
The Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) sensor (Figure 30) is a diaphragm strain gauge device in which
resistance changes with pressure. The electrical resistance of a strain gauge increases as
pressure increases, and decreases as pressure decreases. The varying resistance affects the
voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding
to pressure.
Strain gauge type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The FRP sensor measures the pressure of the fuel near the fuel injectors. This signal is used by
the PCM to adjust the fuel injector pulse width and meter fuel to each engine combustion cylinder.
Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) Sensor
The fuel rail pressure (FRP) sensor (Figure 31) senses the pressure difference between the fuel
rail and the intake manifold. The return fuel line to the fuel tank has been deleted in this type of fuel
system. The differential fuel/intake manifold pressure together with measured fuel temperature
provides an indication of the fuel vapors in the fuel rail. Both differential pressure and temperature
feedback signals are used to control the speed of the fuel pump. The speed of the fuel pump
sustains fuel rail pressure which preserve fuel in its liquid state. The dynamic range of the fuel
injectors increase because of the higher rail pressure, which allows the injector pulse width to
decrease.

4. Connect the transparent air supply hose nozzle tip into the EVAP Service Test Port adapter.
5. Use NGS or WDS Diagnostic tool to CLOSE the CVS.
6. Depress the remote starter button on the Rotunda's Smoke Leak Detector. The indicator ball in
the flowmeter will go all the way to the top indicating the system is being pressurized. Continue to
depress the remote starter button until the ball stops descending. Once the indicator ball has
stopped descending, observe if it is above or below the red indicator flag. If performing this
verification following a repair, go to Step 7. If performing this verification after performing the
SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST PROCEDURE), go to Step 8.
7. Leak Verification After Repair
a. If the measurement is below the indicator flag the system has passed. The test procedure is
complete. Remove the Smoke Machine Test equipment from the vehicle and reconnect the large
EVAP Canister Purge Valve manifold vacuum hose and the test port's green cap.
b. If the measurement is above the indicator flag, repeat SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST
PROCEDURE).
8. Leak Verification After Passing SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST PROCEDURE)
a. If the measurement is below the indicator flag the system has passed, go to Step 9.
b. If the measurement is above the indicator flag, repeat SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST
PROCEDURE).
9. Using WDS Datalogger or NGS select the FTPV PID.
10. Remove Fuel Cap and turn the vehicle's ignition switch to the run position and check the FTPV
PID.
11. The nominal value for the FTPV PID is 2.6V. If the value is greater than 2.8V or less than 2.4V,
the FTP sensor is out of range and should be replaced. Verify the repair by checking to see if the
new sensor is in range. For all except Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus - if the sensor is
within range, the concern is no longer present. (Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus go to
Step 12.)
12. For Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus only verify that filler neck clamps are in good
working order and tightened. Repair as necessary. If no problem is found with clamps, replace the
fuel cap.

4. Connect the transparent air supply hose nozzle tip into the EVAP Service Test Port adapter.
5. Use NGS or WDS Diagnostic tool to CLOSE the CVS.
6. Depress the remote starter button on the Rotunda's Smoke Leak Detector. The indicator ball in
the flowmeter will go all the way to the top indicating the system is being pressurized. Continue to
depress the remote starter button until the ball stops descending. Once the indicator ball has
stopped descending, observe if it is above or below the red indicator flag. If performing this
verification following a repair, go to Step 7. If performing this verification after performing the
SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST PROCEDURE), go to Step 8.
7. Leak Verification After Repair
a. If the measurement is below the indicator flag the system has passed. The test procedure is
complete. Remove the Smoke Machine Test equipment from the vehicle and reconnect the large
EVAP Canister Purge Valve manifold vacuum hose and the test port's green cap.
b. If the measurement is above the indicator flag, repeat SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST
PROCEDURE).
8. Leak Verification After Passing SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST PROCEDURE)
a. If the measurement is below the indicator flag the system has passed, go to Step 9.
b. If the measurement is above the indicator flag, repeat SYSTEM LEAK CHECK (SMOKE TEST
PROCEDURE).
9. Using WDS Datalogger or NGS select the FTPV PID.
10. Remove Fuel Cap and turn the vehicle's ignition switch to the run position and check the FTPV
PID.
11. The nominal value for the FTPV PID is 2.6V. If the value is greater than 2.8V or less than 2.4V,
the FTP sensor is out of range and should be replaced. Verify the repair by checking to see if the
new sensor is in range. For all except Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus - if the sensor is
within range, the concern is no longer present. (Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus go to
Step 12.)
12. For Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus only verify that filler neck clamps are in good
working order and tightened. Repair as necessary. If no problem is found with clamps, replace the
fuel cap.

Component Information > Description and Operation
Fuel Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Engine Fuel Temperature Sensor
Engine Fuel Temperature (EFT) Sensor
The Engine Fuel Temperature (EFT) sensor (Figure 28) is a thermistor device in which resistance
changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature
increases, and increases as temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects the voltage
drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to
temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The EFT sensor measures the temperature of the fuel near the fuel injectors. This signal is used by
the PCM to adjust the fuel injector pulse width and meter fuel to each engine combustion cylinder

Nippondenso Idle Air Control (IAC) Valve Assembly
Hitachi Idle Air Control (IAC) Valve Assembly With Vent/Filter
The idle air control (IAC) valve assembly (Figure 117) and (Figure 118) controls engine idle speed
and provides a dash pot function. The IAC valve assembly meters intake air around the throttle
plate through a bypass within the IAC valve assembly and throttle body. The PCM determines the
desired idle speed or bypass air and signals the IAC valve assembly through a specified duty cycle.
The IAC valve responds by positioning the IAC valve to control the amount of bypassed air. The
PCM monitors engine rpm and increases or decreases the IAC duty cycle in order to achieve the
desired rpm.

Hitachi Idle Air Control (IAC) Valve Assembly With Air-Assist Injectors
On applications with air-assisted injectors, the AC valve (Figure 119) also supplies a small amount
of air into the path of the fuel injectors. The jet of air causes an increase in fuel atomization at low
speed and light load conditions.
NOTE: The IAC Valve Assembly is NOT ADJUSTABLE and CANNOT BE CLEANED.
The IAC valve (part of throttle body assembly) has an internal diode on some applications. If the
internal diode is measured in crossed terminal position with a digital multimeter, there will be an
incorrect or negative reading. It is important that the mating component and harness connectors
correctly oriented. Diagnostic procedures emphasize this importance.
The PCM uses the IAC valve assembly to control: ^
No touch start
^ Cold engine fast idle for rapid warm-up
^ Idle (corrects for engine load)
^ Stumble or stalling on deceleration (provides a dash pot function)
^ Over-temperature idle boost.
^ Air Assist to Injectors.

Inertia Fuel Shutoff (IFS) Switch
The Inertia Fuel Shutoff (IFS) switch (Figure 72) is used in conjunction with the electric fuel pump.
The purpose of the IFS switch is to shut off the fuel pump if a collision occurs. It consists of a steel
ball held in place by a magnet. When a sharp impact occurs, the ball breaks loose from the
magnet, rolls up a conical ramp and strikes a target plate which opens the electrical contacts of the
switch and shuts off the electric fuel pump. Once the switch is open, it must be manually reset
before restarting the vehicle. Refer to the Owner Guide for the location of the IFS.

Mass Air Flow Sensor: Description and Operation
Mass Air Flow Sensor
Typical Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor
Diagram Of Air Flow Through Throttle Body Contacting MAF Sensor Hot And Cold Wire Terminals
The Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor uses a hot wire sensing element to measure the amount of air
entering the engine. Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at
200°C (392°F) above ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire (Figure 35). If the
hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced, then the entire assembly must be replaced.
Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.
The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the air mass flow.
The MAF sensor then outputs an analog voltage signal to the PCM proportional to the intake air
mass. The PCM calculates the required fuel injector pulse width in order to provide the desired
air/fuel ratio (Figure 36). This input is also used in determining transmission Electronic Pressure
Control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling.

Fuel Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation
Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor
Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) Sensor
The Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) sensor (Figure 30) is a diaphragm strain gauge device in which
resistance changes with pressure. The electrical resistance of a strain gauge increases as
pressure increases, and decreases as pressure decreases. The varying resistance affects the
voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding
to pressure.
Strain gauge type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The FRP sensor measures the pressure of the fuel near the fuel injectors. This signal is used by
the PCM to adjust the fuel injector pulse width and meter fuel to each engine combustion cylinder.
Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) Sensor
The fuel rail pressure (FRP) sensor (Figure 31) senses the pressure difference between the fuel
rail and the intake manifold. The return fuel line to the fuel tank has been deleted in this type of fuel
system. The differential fuel/intake manifold pressure together with measured fuel temperature
provides an indication of the fuel vapors in the fuel rail. Both differential pressure and temperature
feedback signals are used to control the speed of the fuel pump. The speed of the fuel pump
sustains fuel rail pressure which preserve fuel in its liquid state. The dynamic range of the fuel
injectors increase because of the higher rail pressure, which allows the injector pulse width to
decrease.

Throttle Position Sensor: Description and Operation
Throttle Position Sensor
Typical Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
The throttle position (TP) sensor (Figure 41) is a rotary potentiometer sensor that provides a signal
to the PCM that is linearly proportional to the throttle plate/shaft position. The sensor housing has a
three-blade electrical connector that may be gold plated. The gold plating increases corrosion
resistance on terminals and increases connector durability. The TP sensor is mounted on the
throttle body. As the TP sensor is rotated by the throttle shaft, four operating conditions are
determined by the PCM from the TP. Those conditions are closed throttle (includes idle or
deceleration), part throttle (includes cruise or moderate acceleration), wide open throttle (includes
maximum acceleration or de-choke on crank), and throttle angle rate.
The TP sensor monitors throttle position and provides an electrical signal to the PCM. It is
monitored by the OBD II system for component integrity, system functionality, and faults that can
cause emissions levels to exceed standards set in government regulations. For additional
information on the TP sensor, refer to Electronic EC System Hardware-PCM Inputs.

Throttle Body: Description and Operation
Throttle Body System Overview
The throttle body system meters air to the engine during idle, part throttle, and Wide Open Throttle
(WOT) conditions. The throttle body system consists of an Idle Air Control (IAC) valve assembly,
idle air orifice, single or dual bores with butterfly valve throttle plates and a Throttle Position (TP)
sensor. One other source of idle air flow is the Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system. The
combined idle air flow (from idle air orifice IAC flow and PCV flow) is measured by the MAF sensor
on all applications.
During idle, the throttle body assembly provides a set amount of air flow to the engine through the
idle air passage and PCV valve. The IAC valve assembly provides additional air when commanded
by the powertrain control module (PCM) to maintain the proper engine idle speed under varying
conditions. The IAC valve assembly mounts directly to the throttle body assembly in most
applications, but is remote-mounted to the intake manifold in some applications. Idle speed is
controlled by the PCM and cannot be adjusted.
NOTE: The traditional idle air adjust procedure as well as throttle return screw are no longer used
on On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) II applications.
Throttle rotation is controlled by a cam/cable linkage to slow the initial opening rate of the throttle
plate. The TP sensor monitors throttle position and provides an electrical signal to the PCM. Some
throttle body applications provide an air supply channel upstream of the throttle plate to provide
fresh air to the Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) or AC Systems. Other throttle body
applications provide individual vacuum taps downstream of the throttle plate for PCV return,
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR), Evaporative Emission (EVAP), and miscellaneous control
signals.
Throttle Body System Hardware
The major components of the throttle body assembly include the TP sensor, IAC valve assembly,
and throttle body housing assembly.
Throttle Body Housing
The throttle body housing assembly is a single piece of aluminum casting with an air passage and
a butterfly throttle plate with linkage mechanisms. When the throttle plate is in the idle (or closed)
position, the throttle lever arm should be in contact with the Throttle Return Stop. The throttle return
stop prevents the throttle plate from contacting the bore and sticking closed. The setting also
establishes the amount of air flow between the throttle plate and bore. To minimize the closed plate
air flow, a special coating is applied to the throttle plate and bore to help seal this area. This
sealant/coating also makes the throttle body resistant to engine intake sludge accumulation.
Features of the Throttle Body Assembly include:
1. Idle air control (IAC) valve assembly mounted directly to the throttle body assembly (some
vehicles). 2. A pre-set stop to locate the WOT position. 3. An air supply channel upstream of the
throttle plate to provide fresh air to the PCV system (some vehicles only). 4. Individual vacuum taps
for PCV, EGR, EVAP and miscellaneous control signals (some vehicles only). 5. PCV air return (if
applicable). 6. A throttle body-mounted throttle position (TP) sensor.
Typical Attention Decal Locations
7. A sealant/coating on the throttle bore and throttle plate makes the throttle body air flow tolerant
to engine intake sludge accumulation. These
throttle body assemblies MUST NOT BE CLEANED and have a white/black attention decal (Figure
116) advising not to clean.

Throttle Position Sensor: Description and Operation
Throttle Position Sensor
Typical Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
The throttle position (TP) sensor (Figure 41) is a rotary potentiometer sensor that provides a signal
to the PCM that is linearly proportional to the throttle plate/shaft position. The sensor housing has a
three-blade electrical connector that may be gold plated. The gold plating increases corrosion
resistance on terminals and increases connector durability. The TP sensor is mounted on the
throttle body. As the TP sensor is rotated by the throttle shaft, four operating conditions are
determined by the PCM from the TP. Those conditions are closed throttle (includes idle or
deceleration), part throttle (includes cruise or moderate acceleration), wide open throttle (includes
maximum acceleration or de-choke on crank), and throttle angle rate.
The TP sensor monitors throttle position and provides an electrical signal to the PCM. It is
monitored by the OBD II system for component integrity, system functionality, and faults that can
cause emissions levels to exceed standards set in government regulations. For additional
information on the TP sensor, refer to Electronic EC System Hardware-PCM Inputs.

Variable Induction System: Description and Operation Intake Manifold Runner Control
Intake Manifold Runner Control (IMRC) Electric Actuated System
Intake Manifold Runner Control (IMRC) - Electric Actuated
The Intake Manifold Runner Control (IMRC) Electric Actuated system (Figure 105) consists of a
remote mounted motorized actuator with an attaching cable for each housing on each bank. Some
applications will use one cable for both banks. The cable or linkage attaches to the housing
butterfly plate levers. The 2.0L (2V) Focus/Escort IMRC uses a motorized actuator mounted
directly to a single housing without the use of a cable. Each IMRC housing is an aluminum casting
with two intake air passages for each cylinder. One passage is always open and the other is
opened and closed with a butterfly valve plate. The housing uses a return spring to hold the
butterfly valve plates closed. The motorized actuator houses an internal switch or switches,
depending on the application, to provide feedback to the PCM indicating cable and butterfly valve
plate position.
Below approximately 3000 rpm, the motorized actuator will not be energized. This will allow the
cable to fully extend and the butterfly valve plates to remain closed. Above approximately 3000
rpm, the motorized actuator will be energized. The attaching cable will pull the butterfly valve plates
into the open position. Some vehicles will activate the IMRC near 1500 rpm.
WARNING: SUBSTANTIAL OPENING AND CLOSING TORQUE IS APPLIED BY THIS SYSTEM.
TO PREVENT INJURY, BE CAREFUL TO KEEP FINGERS AWAY FROM LEVER MECHANISMS
WHEN ACTUATED.
1. The PCM uses the Throttle Position (TP) sensor and Crankshaft Position (CKP) signals to
determine activation of the IMRC system. There
must be a positive change in voltage from the TP sensor along with the increase in rpm to open the
valve plates.
2. The PCM uses the information from the input signals to control the IMRC motorized actuator
based upon rpm and changes in throttle position. 3. The PCM energizes the actuator to pull the
butterfly plates open with the cable(s) or linkage. 4. The IMRC housing contain butterfly plates to
allow increased air flow.

Variable Induction System: Description and Operation Intake Manifold Swirl Control
Intake Manifold Swirl Control (IMSC) Vacuum Actuated System
Intake Manifold Swirl Control (IMSC) - Vacuum Actuated
The Intake Manifold Swirl Control (IMSC) Vacuum Actuated system (Figure 106) consists of a
manifold mounted vacuum actuator and a PCM controlled electric solenoid. The linkage from the
actuator attaches to the manifold butterfly plate lever. The IMSC actuator and manifold are
composite/plastic with a single intake air passage for each cylinder. The passage has a butterfly
valve plate that blocks 60% of the opening when actuated, leaving the top of the passage open to
generate turbulence. The housing uses a return spring to hold the butterfly valve plates open. The
vacuum actuator houses an internal monitor circuit to provide feedback to the PCM indicating
butterfly valve plate position.
Below approximately 3000 rpm, the vacuum solenoid will be energized. This will allow manifold
vacuum to be applied and the butterfly valve plates to remain closed. Above approximately 3000
rpm, the vacuum solenoid will be de-energized. This will allow vacuum to vent from the actuator
and the butterfly valve plates to open.
WARNING: SUBSTANTIAL OPENING AND CLOSING TORQUE IS APPLIED BY THIS SYSTEM.
TO PREVENT INJURY, BE CAREFUL TO KEEP FINGERS AWAY FROM LEVER MECHANISMS
WHEN ACTUATED.
1. The PCM monitors the TP sensor, Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) and Crankshaft Position
(CKP) signals to determine activation of the
IMSC system. There must be a positive change in voltage from the TP sensor along with the
increase in rpm at the proper engine temperature to open the valve plates.
2. The PCM uses the information from the input signals to control the IMSC electric solenoid based
upon changes in throttle position, engine
temperature and rpm.
3. The PCM energizes the solenoid with the key on engine running, vacuum is then applied to the
actuator to pull the butterfly plates closed.

Variable Induction System: Description and Operation Intake Manifold Tuning Valve
Intake Manifold Tuning Valve (IMTV)
Intake Manifold Tuning Valve (IMTV)
The intake manifold tuning valve (IMTV) (Figure 107) is a motorized actuated unit mounted directly
to the intake manifold. The IMTV actuator controls a shutter device attached to the actuator shaft.
There is no monitor input to the PCM with this system to indicate shutter position.
The motorized IMTV unit will not be energized below approximately 2600 rpm or higher on some
vehicles. The shutter will be in the closed position not allowing airflow blend to occur in the intake
manifold. Above approximately 2600 rpm or higher, the motorized unit will be energized. The
motorized unit will be commanded on by the PCM initially at a 100 percent duty cycle to move the
shutter to the open position and then falling to approximately 50 percent to continue to hold the
shutter open. 1. The PCM uses the TP sensor and CKP signals to determine activation of the IMTV
system. There must be a positive change in voltage from
the TP sensor along with the increase in rpm to open the shutter.
2. The PCM uses the information from the input signals to control the IMTV. 3. When commanded
on by the PCM, the motorized actuator shutter opens up the end of the vertical separating wall at
high engine speeds to
allow both sides of the manifold to blend together.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Camshaft Position Sensor
The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor detects the position of the camshaft. The CMP sensor
identifies when piston No.1 is on its compression stroke. A signal is then sent to the powertrain
control module (PCM) and used for synchronizing the firing of sequential fuel injectors. The Coil On
Plug (COP) Ignition applications also use the CMP signal to select the proper ignition coil to fire.
The input circuit to the PCM is referred to as the CMP input or circuit.
Typical Hall-Effect Sensor
Typical Variable Reluctance Sensor
There are two types of CMP sensors: the three pin connector Hall-effect type sensor (Figure 22)
and the two pin connector variable reluctance sensor (Figure 23).

Crankshaft Position Sensor (Integrated Ignition Systems)
Three Different Types Of Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensors
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is a magnetic transducer mounted on the engine block
adjacent to a pulse wheel located on the crankshaft. By monitoring the crankshaft mounted pulse
wheel, the CKP is the primary sensor for ignition information to the powertrain control module
(PCM). The trigger wheel has a total of 35 teeth spaced 10 degrees apart with one empty space for
a missing tooth. The 6.8L ten cylinder pulse wheel has 39 teeth spaced 9 degrees apart and one 9
degree empty space for a missing tooth. By monitoring the trigger wheel, the CKP indicates
crankshaft position and speed information to the PCM. By monitoring the missing tooth, the CKP is
also able to identify piston travel in order to synchronize the ignition system and provide a way of
tracking the angular position of the crankshaft relative to fixed reference (Figure 25).

identify piston travel in order to synchronize the ignition system and provide a way of tracking the
angular position of the crankshaft relative to a fixed reference (Figure 54) for the CKP sensor
configuration. The PCM also uses the CKP signal to determine if a misfire has occurred by
measuring rapid decelerations between teeth.

NOTE
FOLLOW THIS TSB PROCEDURE ONLY IF THERE ARE NO SPECIFIC MISFIRE TSBs/SSMs
RELEASED FOR THE VEHICLE SYMPTOM BEING EXPERIENCED.
ISSUE Approximately 50% of coil on plug (COP) coils returned for warranty do not have a problem.
ACTION The misfiring cylinder must be identified through Self-Test misfire codes or through WDS
Power Balance. Rule out base engine problems, rule out fuel problems, and then look at ignition
problems (be sure to rule out coil primary circuit issues). Once the above steps have been
completed, and the issue is in the secondary part of the ignition system, the oscilloscope procedure
outlined in this TSB can isolate the difference between a coil or spark plug problem.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
The optional WDS COP Kit available through Rotunda will provide more accurate diagnosis and
help reduce replacement of non-defective parts. The Kit (418-F5528) can be purchased through
1-800-ROTUNDA.
The following material will detail the diagnostic steps on WDS to take the guesswork out of misfire
diagnosis using the COP Kit. The following procedure is for cylinder specific misfires and not
random misfires. Random misfires have a different root cause and are not covered by this TSB.

Service Bulletins > Ignition System - Coil-On-Plug Misfire Diagnostic Tips > Page 4159
Misfire Definition: A misfiring cylinder is lacking power relative to the other cylinders. The causes
for a cylinder specific misfire could be fuel, spark, or mechanical problems.
Perform a thorough visual inspection. If no visible concerns are found use the following WDS tools
for misfire diagnosis:
^ Self-test (Check for codes first)
Power Balance (Identify the cylinder of concern)
^ Relative Compression (Rule out a possible mechanical issue)
^ Fuel (Make sure fuel injectors are not restricted)
^ Ignition (Make sure spark plugs and coils are working properly)
^ Oscilloscope (Detailed signal analysis)
NOTE
USE THE ENCYCLOPEDIA BUTTON IN THE LOWER LEFT CORNER OF THE SCREEN FOR
DETAILED INFORMATION ON THE WDS TOOL BEING DISPLAYED.
If there is a self-test code identifying a particular cylinder then you just need to determine if it is a
fuel, ignition, or possibly a mechanical problem. Proceed to Step 2 after running Relative
Compression to rule out any mechanical issues. If there is no self-test code and the customer
concern is a miss, proceed to Step 1.
Step 1: (Select Toolbox Icon, then Powertrain, then Power Balance)
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Ignition System > Ignition Coil > Component Information > Technical
Service Bulletins > Ignition System - Coil-On-Plug Misfire Diagnostic Tips > Page 4160
The cylinder specific miss has to be identified as shown in the example in Figure 2 in order to
proceed with the remaining steps. If the miss does not occur at idle (in the bay), try to brake torque
the engine. This extra loading should reproduce the miss in the bay. If the miss cannot be
reproduced during brake torque, select Relative Compression under Powertrain on WDS before
going on a road test to rule out mechanical problems. If Relative Compression shows a problem
then the base engine issue must be serviced. If Relative Compression results are good (Figure 3),
road test under as many different driving conditions as possible until the miss occurs on Power
Balance. Some misses may be very intermiffent so be patient and concentrate on steady load
conditions. Once a cylinder dropout is identified proceed to Step 2.
Step 2: (Select Toolbox Icon, then Powertrain, then Fuel System Test)
Run Fuel System Test on WDS to determine if there may be a fuel problem. After completing fuel
Pressure/Leakdown test, select Injector flow to isolate

Service Bulletins > Ignition System - Coil-On-Plug Misfire Diagnostic Tips > Page 4161
a restricted injector as shown in Figure 4. If all the injectors are within specification, proceed to
Step 3.
Step 3: (Select Toolbox Icon, then Powertrain, then Ignition System Test)
Run Ignition System Test on WDS to determine if there is an ignition problem. Look at both
duration (DUR) and kilovolts (KV) and look for values that standout from the rest as shown in
Figure 5 and Figure 6.
NOTE
LIVE DISPLAY HAS TO AVERAGE IGNITION VALUES BECAUSE THERE IS TOO MUCH DATA
TO DISPLAY. MAKE A CAPTURE TO VIEW EACH ENGINE EVENT WITHOUT AVERAGING.
THIS CAN BE HELPFUL WHEN THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. IF THE
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Ignition System > Ignition Coil > Component Information > Technical
Service Bulletins > Ignition System - Coil-On-Plug Misfire Diagnostic Tips > Page 4162
MISS IS EXTREMELY INTERMITTENT AND DOES NOT SHOW UP IN IGNITION, PROCEED TO
STEP 4.
If either spark duration or peak KV on the Red Probe (Suspect Cylinder) are offset from the values
displayed on the Black Probe (Known Good Cylinder) then the problem is in the ignition system.
Rule out coil primary circuit issues before proceeding to coil secondary issues such as the spark
plug , coil boot, or possibly the coil. Use the WDS Oscilloscope with the COP kit to determine if the
issue is the coil or the spark plug.
Step 4: (Select Toolbox, then Oscilloscope)
WARNING
SECONDARY IGNITION VOLTAGES ARE VERY HIGH. KEEP HANDS AND TOOLS AWAY
FROM THE END OF THE COIL THAT SUPPLIES THE SPARK.
SET-UP: With the engine off, pull the suspect coil from the cylinder well and turn it upside down so
the coil cannot spark to any other surface as shown in Figure 1. Wrap a clean shop cloth around
the hard shell of the coil to help keep the coil propped up and stable.
CAUTION
THE COIL BOOT CAN BE DAMAGED IF THE COIL SPARKS TO ANOTHER SURFACE DURING
THIS PROCEDURE.
Keep the coil connected to the harness and leave the WDS COP clip attached to the coil. Route
the coil clip wire and cable away from the coil being tested as well as other coils to avoid noise
interference. Disconnect the injector of the cylinder being tested so raw fuel is not washing the
cylinder. This is a stress test for the coil. The type of waveform displayed on the oscilloscope will
show whether a coil or the plug is the problem if all previous steps have been followed. Keep hands
and tools away from the end of the coil that supplies the spark.
COP Stress Test Procedure:

Go to the Oscilloscope Tool and select Channel 3, then select Auto, then select
COP_STRESS_TEST_RED. This pre-configured setting will zoom-in on the peak firing of the coil
being tested. Start the engine and be sure the coil is not sparking to any surface. If the coil is
sparking to other surfaces, turn the engine off immediately and readjust the coil so it cannot spark
to any other surface. Restart the engine and touch the Red Man icon to start the oscilloscope. All
settings are pre-configured and no adjustments are necessary. Compare the waveform you get
with the examples provided in Figures 7, 8, and 9). Figure 7 is a good waveform. If your waveform
is similar to Figure 7 the coil is working correctly. Suspect the spark plug.
Figure 8 and Figure 9 are examples of problem coils. Replace the coil if the waveform is similar to
Figures 8 or 9. The coil is causing the misfire when the peak firing appears like those shown in
Figures 8 and 9. Notice the difference in the peak-firing signal when compared to the good peak
signal in Figure 7.
Figure 9 shows a more dramatic fault in the peak failure.
Most root causes of misfire issues can be identified quickly using the steps outlined above. Some
misfire issues can be difficult making the oscilloscope an important part of your diagnostic toolbox.

Series 5 Four Tower Coil Pack
Coil packs come in four tower, Series 5 four tower, six-tower horizontal connector and Series 5 Six
tower models. Two adjacent coil towers share a common coil and are called a matched pair. For
six-tower coil pack (six cylinder) applications the matched pairs are 1 and 5, 2 and 6, and 3 and 4
(Figure 56)and (Figure 57). For four-tower coil pack (four cylinder) applications the matched pairs
are 1 and 4, and 2 and 3 (Figure 58) and (Figure 59).
When the coil is fired by the PCM, spark is delivered through the matched pair towers to their
respective spark plugs. The spark plugs are fired simultaneously and are paired so that as one fires
on the compression stroke, the other spark plug fires on the exhaust stroke. The next time the coil
is fired the situation is reversed. The next pair of spark plugs fire according to the engine firing
order.

Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation PCM Input
Camshaft Position Sensor
The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor detects the position of the camshaft. The CMP sensor
identifies when piston No.1 is on its compression stroke. A signal is then sent to the powertrain
control module (PCM) and used for synchronizing the firing of sequential fuel injectors. The Coil On
Plug (COP) Ignition applications also use the CMP signal to select the proper ignition coil to fire.
The input circuit to the PCM is referred to as the CMP input or circuit.
Typical Hall-Effect Sensor
Typical Variable Reluctance Sensor
There are two types of CMP sensors: the three pin connector Hall-effect type sensor (Figure 22)
and the two pin connector variable reluctance sensor (Figure 23).

Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor
The camshaft position sensor (Figure 55) used by COP Integrated EI system is a magnetic
transducer mounted on the engine front cover adjacent to the camshaft. By monitoring a target on
the camshaft sprocket, the CMP sensor identifies cylinder one to the PCM. The COP Integrated EI
system uses this information to synchronize the firing of the individual coils.

Crankshaft Position Sensor (Integrated Ignition Systems)
Three Different Types Of Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensors
The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is a magnetic transducer mounted on the engine block
adjacent to a pulse wheel located on the crankshaft. By monitoring the crankshaft mounted pulse
wheel, the CKP is the primary sensor for ignition information to the powertrain control module
(PCM). The trigger wheel has a total of 35 teeth spaced 10 degrees apart with one empty space for
a missing tooth. The 6.8L ten cylinder pulse wheel has 39 teeth spaced 9 degrees apart and one 9
degree empty space for a missing tooth. By monitoring the trigger wheel, the CKP indicates
crankshaft position and speed information to the PCM. By monitoring the missing tooth, the CKP is
also able to identify piston travel in order to synchronize the ignition system and provide a way of
tracking the angular position of the crankshaft relative to fixed reference (Figure 25).

pulse wheel, the CKP is the primary sensor for ignition information to the PCM. The pulse wheel
has a total of 35 teeth spaced 10 degrees apart with one empty space for a missing tooth. The 6.8L
ten cylinder pulse wheel has 39 teeth spaced 9 degrees apart and one 9 degree empty space for a

and speed information to the PCM. By monitoring the missing tooth, the CKP sensor is also able to
identify piston travel in order to synchronize the ignition system and provide a way of tracking the
angular position of the crankshaft relative to a fixed reference (Figure 54) for the CKP sensor
configuration. The PCM also uses the CKP signal to determine if a misfire has occurred by
measuring rapid decelerations between teeth.

Transmission Speed Sensor: Description and Operation
OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED SENSOR
The Output Shaft Speed Sensor (OSS), provides the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with
information about the rotational speed of an output shaft. The PCM uses the information to control
and diagnose powertrain behavior. In some applications, the sensor is also used as the source of
vehicle speed. The sensor may be physically located in different places on the vehicle, depending
upon the specific application. The design of each speed sensor is unique and depends on which
powertrain control feature uses the information generated.

Transmission Speed Sensor: Description and Operation
OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED SENSOR
The Output Shaft Speed Sensor (OSS), provides the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with
information about the rotational speed of an output shaft. The PCM uses the information to control
and diagnose powertrain behavior. In some applications, the sensor is also used as the source of
vehicle speed. The sensor may be physically located in different places on the vehicle, depending
upon the specific application. The design of each speed sensor is unique and depends on which
powertrain control feature uses the information generated.

ISSUE The number one cause for repeat transmission repairs is that contamination from the
transmission cooler system (lines and tank) will work their way back into the rebuilt or new
transmission. For this reason a new transmission cooler flusher has been released, "Turbo-Tank
Heated Cooler Line Flusher" Rotunda Tool number 22-00001.
ACTION The transmission cooling system (cooler and lines) MUST be flushed every time the
transmission is overhauled or replaced in order to minimize the likelihood of repeat repairs. The
use of this new "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line Flusher" (222-00001) is the most effective way to
remove contamination from its cooling system. Refer to the following Service Procedure and
Equipment instructions (supplied with the "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line Flusher").
SERVICE PROCEDURE
Prior methods of cooler flushing have not obtained the level of cooler cleaning and contaminant
removal that is required to prevent repeat repairs. The "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line Flusher"
uses heated Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) and a pulsating action to loosen system
contamination.
Previous equipment used solvents to clean & flush coolers, lines and torque-converters. There are
2 issues with this method:
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Transmission Cooler, A/T >
Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > A/T CD4E - Cold Weather Transmission Failure > Page 4593
^ Residual solvent contamination can cause damage to friction bonding materials within the
transmission (Clutches and Bands).
^ Lack of fluid heating and agitation prevents this method from completely removing contamination
from lines, in-radiator coolers and auxiliary coolers.
Aerosol Solvents should never be used for several reasons.
^ They do not provide the volume necessary to remove heavy contaminants.
^ They evaporate quickly and essentially leave contaminants in pockets, bends, or wherever they
are as the solvent dries.
NOTE
YOU MUST IDENTIFY THE RETURN COOLER LINE TO START THE BACK FLUSHING
PROCEDURE.
A quick way to identify the return cooler line (fluid coming out of the cooler and returning to the
transmission) is to locate the return cooler line fitting on the transmission case. Refer to the
following lists:
Rear Wheel Drive
^ TORQSHIFT, 4R100, E40D, C6 - The REAR transmission case filling receives the return line.
^ 4R70W, AODE, AOD - The TOP transmission case filling receives the return line.
^ A4LD, 4R44/55E, 5R55E, 5R55N, 5R55W, 5R55S
- The TOP transmission case filling receives the return line.
Front Wheel Drive
^ CD4E - The REAR or Pump End transaxle case fitting receives the return line.
^ 4F27E - The REAR or Cover End transaxle case fitting receives the return line.
^ AXOD, AXODE, AX4S, AX4N, 4F50N - The BOTTOM transaxle cooler line fitting receives the
return line.
NOTE
IF AN IN-LINE FILTER HAS BEEN INSTALLED IN THE COOLER LINE, IT MUST BE REMOVED
BEFORE FLUSHING THE COOLER OR COOLER LINES.
Purge the cooler and cooler line before flushing:
Located on the "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line Flusher" is a fluid transfer and purge valve. This
valve can be used to purge the cooler and cooler lines of contaminated fluid before starting the
back flush procedure of the fluid cooling system (refer to step 5a of this Service Procedure or
Equipment instructions, supplied with the "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line Flusher").
Flush Procedure
1. Check and top off fluid level of the "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line Flusher" tank with
transmission fluid.
2. Allow the fluid in the flusher 15-30 minutes to heat up to 140° F (60° C) before using.
3. Install line adapters into the transmission cooler lines.
4. Attach the flusher's blue line to the transmission return cooler line quick disconnect.
5. Attach the flusher's red line to the transmission outlet cooler line quick disconnect.
a. Follow equipment instructions, to purge cooler lines and cooler prior to starting flushing
procedure (using factory installed purge valve and clear hose on "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line
Flusher").
6. Allow the cooling system to back-flush for 10-15 minutes, then flush the cooler in a
forward/normal flow direction for an additional 10-15 minutes.

Transmission Speed Sensor: Description and Operation
OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED SENSOR
The Output Shaft Speed Sensor (OSS), provides the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with
information about the rotational speed of an output shaft. The PCM uses the information to control
and diagnose powertrain behavior. In some applications, the sensor is also used as the source of
vehicle speed. The sensor may be physically located in different places on the vehicle, depending
upon the specific application. The design of each speed sensor is unique and depends on which
powertrain control feature uses the information generated.

recommended for use with asbestos fibers such as brake/clutch/service vacuum 164-R3600. Dust
and dirt from vacuum should be disposed of in a manner that prevents dust exposure such as
sealed bags. The bag must be labeled as per OSHA instructions and the trash hauler notified as to
the bag's contents. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
WARNING: If a vacuum suitable for asbestos is not available, cleaning should be done wet. If dust
generation is still possible, technicians should wear government approved toxic dust purifying
respirators. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
WARNING: Grinding or sanding on brake linings, pads, rotors, drums or clutch facings should be
done only while using correctly exhaust-ventilated equipment. Failure to follow these instructions
may result in personal injury.

Transmission Speed Sensor: Description and Operation
OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED SENSOR
The Output Shaft Speed Sensor (OSS), provides the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with
information about the rotational speed of an output shaft. The PCM uses the information to control
and diagnose powertrain behavior. In some applications, the sensor is also used as the source of
vehicle speed. The sensor may be physically located in different places on the vehicle, depending
upon the specific application. The design of each speed sensor is unique and depends on which
powertrain control feature uses the information generated.

Transmission Speed Sensor: Description and Operation
OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED SENSOR
The Output Shaft Speed Sensor (OSS), provides the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with
information about the rotational speed of an output shaft. The PCM uses the information to control
and diagnose powertrain behavior. In some applications, the sensor is also used as the source of
vehicle speed. The sensor may be physically located in different places on the vehicle, depending
upon the specific application. The design of each speed sensor is unique and depends on which
powertrain control feature uses the information generated.

POWER TAKE-OFF SWITCH AND CIRCUIT
Power Take-Off (PTO) Switch and Circuit To PCM
The Power Take-Off (PTO) circuit (Figure 40) is used by the PCM to disable some of the OBD II
Monitors during PTO operation. The PTO circuit normally carries low voltage. When the PTO
switch is on/closed, B+ is supplied to the PTO input circuit indicating to the PCM that an additional
load is being applied to the engine. If this action was not reported by the PTO circuit, a false
Diagnostic Trouble Code may be stored.

Transmission Speed Sensor: Description and Operation
OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED SENSOR
The Output Shaft Speed Sensor (OSS), provides the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with
information about the rotational speed of an output shaft. The PCM uses the information to control
and diagnose powertrain behavior. In some applications, the sensor is also used as the source of
vehicle speed. The sensor may be physically located in different places on the vehicle, depending
upon the specific application. The design of each speed sensor is unique and depends on which
powertrain control feature uses the information generated.

Attachment III - Technical Information
OVERVIEW
This program includes making sure the wiring harness connector is properly sealed against
moisture/contamination, and inspecting the ABS module for evidence of corrosion resulting from an
inadequately sealed connector.
During the inspection, we expect that most of the affected vehicles will not have any evidence of
corrosion in the ABS module. However, the ABS wiring harness connector still needs to be
inspected for missing or improperly seated seals and/or incorrect connector number.
If the ABS module is corroded, the ABS module and connector must be replaced.

LABOR OPERATION A - APPLY ELECTRICAL GREASE
1. Reinstall the dress cover and use electrical tape to secure the cover at the same location where
the original tie strap was removed. Apply Motorcraft
Electrical Grease XG-1 2 to the ABS module connector, position and connect the harness as
follows:
a) Reinstall the dress cover.
b) Use ONLY Motorcraft Electrical Grease XG-12. See Figure 6.
- With the tip of the applicator tube snipped off, position the end of the tip between the 4 large flat
pins at the bottom of the ABS module connector. Squeeze out enough grease to completely cover
the 4 flat pins. See Figure 6. DO NOT spread the grease around the connector. Applying an excess
amount of grease into the connector cavity will cause a "hydro lock" condition in which the
connector will not be able to be seated fully or locked in place.
2. Reposition the harness to its original position, install the retainers to the studs to secure the
harness and connect it to the ABS module.
3. Reconnect the battery negative terminal.
LABOR OPERATION C - INSTALL PIGTAIL AND APPLY ELECTRICAL GREASE
IMPORTANT SERVICE INFORMATION
When performing the service pigtail installation, it is critical that the crimp tool and the flameless
heat gun found in the Rotunda Wire Splice Tool Kit / 64-R5903 be used.

USING DIFFERENT TOOLS MAY RESULT IN A POOR QUALITY REPAIR. See Figure 7.
1. Remove the tape and the convolute from the vehicle harness which leads up to the ABS module
connector. See Figure 8.
2. Measure approximately 75 mm (3 in) from the end of the elbow towards the ABS module
connector, then, using suitable wire cutters, cut the harness
(all wires) to the same length. See Figure 8.
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))

07S51S2 > Oct > 09 > Recall - ABS Module Connector Inspection/Repair > Page 5155
3. Strip approximately 6 mm (1/2 in) of insulation from each of the cut wires in the harness. See
Figure 9.
CAUTION:
The harness contains a 16-gauge red wire and a 20-gauge red wire with a pink tracer. DO NOT
cross these wires when splicing in the service pigtail. As an assembly aid, the 16-gauge red wire
on the service pigtail is identified by a small tag.
Also, it is possible that some discoloration of the insulation may occur. Sets of wires may appear to
have the same color insulation when, in fact, all wires in the ABS module harness are different
except for the 2 black ground circuit wires. Be sure to carefully examine each wire to avoid crossing
circuits when splicing wires.
NOTE:
The harness contains 2 black wires of the same size. Both are grounds (circuit 57). Crossing these
wires has no adverse effect on vehicle operation.
NOTE:
The service pigtail kit contains the connector with wires matching color and size of the original
vehicle harness and a piece of heat shrink tubing to cover each splice.

4. Working with one wire at a time, match the wires from the service pigtail to the vehicle harness.
Insert the stripped end of each wire into the splice
connector and crimp using the crimp tool provided in the Rotunda Wire Splice Tool Kit 164-R5903.
See Figure 10.
5. Using rosin core solder, solder only the vehicle harness side of the wires to the butt splice
connector.
6. After soldering the wires, center each piece of heat shrink tubing over the splice. Then, using the
flameless heat gun provided in the Rotunda Kit,
shrink one piece of tubing at a time until the adhesive flows out of both ends. Continue until all
wires are insulated. See Figure 11.

Electronic Brake Control Module: Recalls Recall 07V156000: ABS Module Connector Defect
MAKE/MODELS: MODEL/BUILD YEARS: Ford/Escape 2001-2004 MANUFACTURER: Ford Motor
Company NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 07V156000 MFR'S REPORT DATE: March 30, 2007
COMPONENT: Service Brakes, Hydraulic: Antilock: Control Unit/Module
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 446460
SUMMARY: On certain sport utility vehicles equipped with Antilock Brakes (ABS), the ABS module
connector may have missing or dislodged wire seals. This condition could allow contamination to
enter the module connector, creating a potential for an electrical short.
CONSEQUENCE: An electrical short might cause an ABS malfunction that would illuminate the
ABS warning light, and in some cases, the module may overheat resulting in burning odor, smoke,
and/or fire. This condition could occur either when the vehicle ignition switch is in the off position or
while the vehicle is being operated.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the wire harness connector to the ABS module for missing or
dislodged wire seals, and repair or replace the harness connector as appropriate. The dealer will
also inspect the connector on the ABS module and replace it if it is found to be corroded or
damaged. The recall began on April 23, 2007. Owners may contact Ford at 1-800-392-3673.
NOTES: Ford recall No. 07S51. Customers may also contact The National Highway Traffic Safety

Attachment III - Technical Information
OVERVIEW
This program includes making sure the wiring harness connector is properly sealed against
moisture/contamination, and inspecting the ABS module for evidence of corrosion resulting from an
inadequately sealed connector.
During the inspection, we expect that most of the affected vehicles will not have any evidence of
corrosion in the ABS module. However, the ABS wiring harness connector still needs to be
inspected for missing or improperly seated seals and/or incorrect connector number.
If the ABS module is corroded, the ABS module and connector must be replaced.

USING DIFFERENT TOOLS MAY RESULT IN A POOR QUALITY REPAIR. See Figure 16.
PROCEDURE TO REPLACE VEHICLE HARNESS CONNECTOR
1. Remove the tape and the convolute from the vehicle harness which leads up to the ABS module
connector. See Figure 17.
2. Measure approximately 75 mm (3 in) from the end of the elbow towards the ABS module
connector, then, using suitable wire cutters, cut the harness
(all wires) to the same length. See Figure 17.
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))

Control Module > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > All Technical Service Bulletins for Electronic
Brake Control Module: > 07S51S2 > Oct > 09 > Recall - ABS Module Connector Inspection/Repair > Page 5195
3. Strip approximately 6 mm (1/4 in) of insulation from each of the cut wires in the harness. See
Figure 18.
CAUTION:
The harness contains a 16-gauge red wire and a 20-gauge red wire with a pink tracer. DO NOT
cross these wires when splicing in the service pigtail. As an assembly aid, the 16-gauge red wire
on the service pigtail is identified by a small tag.
Also, it is possible that some discoloration of the insulation may occur. Sets of wires may appear to
have the same color insulation when, in fact, all wires in the ABS module harness are different
except for the 2 black ground circuit wires. Be sure to carefully examine each wire to avoid crossing
circuits when splicing wires.
NOTE:
The harness contains 2 black wires of the same size. Both are grounds (circuit 57). Crossing these
wires has no adverse effect on vehicle operation.
NOTE:
The service pigtail kit contains the connector with wires matching color and size of the original
vehicle harness and a piece of heat shrink tubing to cover each splice.

4. Working with one wire at a time, match the wires from the service pigtail to the vehicle harness.
Insert the stripped end of each wire into the splice
connector and crimp using the crimp tool provided in the Rotunda Wire Splice Tool Kit 164-R5903.
See Figure 19.
5. Using rosin core solder, solder only the vehicle harness side of the wires to the butt splice
connector.
6. After soldering the wires, center each piece of heat shrink tubing over the splice. Then, using the
flameless heat gun provided in the Rotunda Kit,
shrink one piece of tubing at a time until the adhesive flows out of both ends. Continue until all
wires are insulated. See Figure 20.

7. Install the supplied convolute tubing over the spliced area and secure with electrical tape. Apply
tape to the entire length of the convolute and be sure
to secure the convolute to the elbow at one end, and as close as possible to the ABS connector on
the other. See Figure 21.
8. Install a new ABS module. Perform Labor Operation F - Install New ABS Module and Apply
Electrical Grease.
9. Reconnect the battery negative terminal.
10. Turn the ignition key to the RUN position. Allow the ABS to carry out a self-test (indicated by
illuminating the yellow ABS warning indicator in the
instrument cluster for approximately 3 seconds).
^ If the yellow ABS indicator is not illuminated after 3 seconds, release the vehicle.
^ If the yellow ABS warning indicator stays illuminated after the self-test, contact the Special
Support Service Center.

Electronic Brake Control Module: All Technical Service Bulletins Recall 07V156000: ABS Module
Connector Defect
MAKE/MODELS: MODEL/BUILD YEARS: Ford/Escape 2001-2004 MANUFACTURER: Ford Motor
Company NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 07V156000 MFR'S REPORT DATE: March 30, 2007
COMPONENT: Service Brakes, Hydraulic: Antilock: Control Unit/Module
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 446460
SUMMARY: On certain sport utility vehicles equipped with Antilock Brakes (ABS), the ABS module
connector may have missing or dislodged wire seals. This condition could allow contamination to
enter the module connector, creating a potential for an electrical short.
CONSEQUENCE: An electrical short might cause an ABS malfunction that would illuminate the
ABS warning light, and in some cases, the module may overheat resulting in burning odor, smoke,
and/or fire. This condition could occur either when the vehicle ignition switch is in the off position or
while the vehicle is being operated.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the wire harness connector to the ABS module for missing or
dislodged wire seals, and repair or replace the harness connector as appropriate. The dealer will
also inspect the connector on the ABS module and replace it if it is found to be corroded or
damaged. The recall began on April 23, 2007. Owners may contact Ford at 1-800-392-3673.
NOTES: Ford recall No. 07S51. Customers may also contact The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to

FORD: 2001-2005 Escape 2005 Escape Hybrid
MERCURY: 2005 Mariner
ISSUE When servicing the wheel speed sensors on a 2001-2005 Escape or 2005 Mariner and
Escape Hybrid, care must be taken during removal to prevent damage. The wheel speed sensor
wire has a body plug attached to it. This plug can be damaged if not removed correctly, such as
removal for pinpoint testing. If the body plug is damaged, sensor replacement may be necessary
even though the sensor is functional in all other respects.
ACTION
When removing the body plug, rotate the plug into a position which allows the use of a small
screwdriver to release the tabs on the underside of the body plug. These two tabs are at right
angles (directly above and below) to the sensor wire. See Figures 1 and 2 for reference.

WARNING: Use only as much compressed air as necessary to remove the piston. Excessive
pressure can force the piston out of the caliper bore with enough force to cause personal injury.
Never attempt to catch the piston by hand as it comes out of the bore. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in personal injury.
CAUTION: Do not use a screwdriver or any other similar tool to pry the piston out of the bore.
Piston damage could result.
CAUTION: Use a plastic or wooden pick to remove the piston seal from the caliper bore. A metal
tool may scratch or nick the seal groove, which could result in a seal leak.
CAUTION: Do not use denatured alcohol to clean rubber components or assemblies that have
rubber components. Cleaning rubber components with denatured alcohol weakens the rubber and
may result in failure of the component.
CAUTION: Never allow any petroleum product or mineral oil to contact the inside of a brake
hydraulic system. Mineral oil and petroleum products deteriorate the natural rubber seals used in
brake hydraulic system. If a brake system becomes contaminated, it must be flushed with clean
brake fluid and all rubber seals and flex hoses replaced. Use High Performance DOT 3 Motor

5. Remove the bleeder screw.
6. CAUTION: Use a plastic or wooden pick to remove the piston seal from the caliper bore. A metal
tool may scratch or nick the seal groove, which
could result in a seal leak.
NOTE: Inspect the caliper bore for wear, rust, or pits. If any of these conditions exist, do not hone;
a new caliper must be installed.
Remove the piston seal.
Assembly
1. CAUTION: Do not use denatured alcohol to clean rubber components or assemblies that have
rubber components. Cleaning rubber components
with denatured alcohol weakens the rubber and may result in failure of the component.
CAUTION: Never allow any petroleum product or mineral oil to contact the inside of a brake
hydraulic system. Mineral oil and petroleum products deteriorate the natural rubber seals used in
brake hydraulic system. If a brake system becomes contaminated, it must be flushed with clean
brake fluid and all rubber seals and flex hoses replaced. Use High Performance DOT 3 Motor
Vehicle Brake Fluid C6AZ-19542-AB or equivalent meeting Ford specification ESA-M6C25-A, DOT
3.
NOTE: Be sure the seal is not twisted and is firmly seated in the caliper bore.
NOTE: Clean all brake caliper components. All parts must be air-dried completely. Coat all internal
parts and piston seal with High Performance DOT 3 Motor Vehicle Brake Fluid C6AZ-19542-AB or
equivalent meeting Ford specification ESA-M6C25-A, DOT 3 before installation.

ISSUE
Under normal operating conditions, customers may notice accumulation of brake dust on their
wheels. Some brake dust is inevitable as brakes wear and does not contribute to brake noise. The
use of modern friction materials with emphasis on improved performance and environmental
considerations can lead to more dust than in the past.
ACTION
Brake dust can be cleaned by weekly washing with Motorcraft Detail Wash (ZC-3-A) and a soft
sponge. Heavier deposits can be removed with Motorcraft Wheel and Tire Cleaner (ZC-37-A).

hands thoroughly after handling. If brake fluid contacts eyes, flush eyes with running water for 15
minutes. Get medical attention if irritation persists. If taken internally, drink water and induce
vomiting. Get medical attention immediately. Failure to follow these instructions may result in
personal injury.
WARNING: Use only as much compressed air as necessary to remove the piston. Excessive
pressure can force the piston out of the caliper bore with enough force to cause personal injury.
Never attempt to catch the piston by hand as it comes out of the bore. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in personal injury.
CAUTION: Do not use a screwdriver or any other similar tool to pry the piston out of the bore.
Piston damage could result.
CAUTION: Use a plastic or wooden pick to remove the piston seal from the caliper bore. A metal
tool may scratch or nick the seal groove, which could result in a seal leak.
CAUTION: Do not use denatured alcohol to clean rubber components or assemblies that have
rubber components. Cleaning rubber components with denatured alcohol weakens the rubber and
may result in failure of the component.
CAUTION: Never allow any petroleum product or mineral oil to contact the inside of a brake
hydraulic system. Mineral oil and petroleum products deteriorate the natural rubber seals used in
brake hydraulic system. If a brake system becomes contaminated, it must be flushed with clean
brake fluid and all rubber seals and flex hoses replaced. Use High Performance DOT 3 Motor
Vehicle Brake Fluid C6AZ-19542-AB or equivalent meeting Ford specification ESA-M6C25-A, DOT
3.
CAUTION: Do not allow the brake master cylinder reservoir to run dry during the bleeding
operation. Keep the brake master cylinder reservoir filled with the specified brake fluid. Never reuse
the brake fluid that has been drained from the hydraulic system.

WARNING: Asbestos fiber dust may be present on brake and clutch assemblies and is hazardous
to health if inhaled. Brake and clutch assemblies should be cleaned using a vacuum cleaner
recommended for use with asbestos fibers such as a brake/clutch/service vacuum. The bag must
be labeled per OSHA instructions, sealed, and the trash hauler notified as to the bag's contents. If
a vacuum suitable for asbestos is not available, cleaning should be done wet. If dust generation is
still possible, technicians should wear government-approved toxic dust purifying respirators. Failure
to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
1. Remove the wheel and tire assembly.
2. Remove the brake caliper clip.
3. Position the caliper aside.
1 Remove the brake caliper bolt caps and bolts.

Attachment III - Technical Information
OVERVIEW
This program includes making sure the wiring harness connector is properly sealed against
moisture/contamination, and inspecting the ABS module for evidence of corrosion resulting from an
inadequately sealed connector.
During the inspection, we expect that most of the affected vehicles will not have any evidence of
corrosion in the ABS module. However, the ABS wiring harness connector still needs to be
inspected for missing or improperly seated seals and/or incorrect connector number.
If the ABS module is corroded, the ABS module and connector must be replaced.

3. Strip approximately 6 mm (1/2 in) of insulation from each of the cut wires in the harness. See
Figure 9.
CAUTION:
The harness contains a 16-gauge red wire and a 20-gauge red wire with a pink tracer. DO NOT
cross these wires when splicing in the service pigtail. As an assembly aid, the 16-gauge red wire
on the service pigtail is identified by a small tag.
Also, it is possible that some discoloration of the insulation may occur. Sets of wires may appear to
have the same color insulation when, in fact, all wires in the ABS module harness are different
except for the 2 black ground circuit wires. Be sure to carefully examine each wire to avoid crossing
circuits when splicing wires.
NOTE:
The harness contains 2 black wires of the same size. Both are grounds (circuit 57). Crossing these

MAKE/MODELS: MODEL/BUILD YEARS: Ford/Escape 2001-2004 MANUFACTURER: Ford Motor
Company NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 07V156000 MFR'S REPORT DATE: March 30, 2007
COMPONENT: Service Brakes, Hydraulic: Antilock: Control Unit/Module
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 446460
SUMMARY: On certain sport utility vehicles equipped with Antilock Brakes (ABS), the ABS module
connector may have missing or dislodged wire seals. This condition could allow contamination to
enter the module connector, creating a potential for an electrical short.
CONSEQUENCE: An electrical short might cause an ABS malfunction that would illuminate the
ABS warning light, and in some cases, the module may overheat resulting in burning odor, smoke,
and/or fire. This condition could occur either when the vehicle ignition switch is in the off position or
while the vehicle is being operated.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the wire harness connector to the ABS module for missing or
dislodged wire seals, and repair or replace the harness connector as appropriate. The dealer will
also inspect the connector on the ABS module and replace it if it is found to be corroded or
damaged. The recall began on April 23, 2007. Owners may contact Ford at 1-800-392-3673.
NOTES: Ford recall No. 07S51. Customers may also contact The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to

Attachment III - Technical Information
OVERVIEW
This program includes making sure the wiring harness connector is properly sealed against
moisture/contamination, and inspecting the ABS module for evidence of corrosion resulting from an
inadequately sealed connector.
During the inspection, we expect that most of the affected vehicles will not have any evidence of
corrosion in the ABS module. However, the ABS wiring harness connector still needs to be
inspected for missing or improperly seated seals and/or incorrect connector number.
If the ABS module is corroded, the ABS module and connector must be replaced.

4. Working with one wire at a time, match the wires from the service pigtail to the vehicle harness.
Insert the stripped end of each wire into the splice
connector and crimp using the crimp tool provided in the Rotunda Wire Splice Tool Kit 164-R5903.
See Figure 19.
5. Using rosin core solder, solder only the vehicle harness side of the wires to the butt splice
connector.
6. After soldering the wires, center each piece of heat shrink tubing over the splice. Then, using the
flameless heat gun provided in the Rotunda Kit,
shrink one piece of tubing at a time until the adhesive flows out of both ends. Continue until all
wires are insulated. See Figure 20.

Electronic Brake Control Module: All Technical Service Bulletins Recall 07V156000: ABS Module
Connector Defect
MAKE/MODELS: MODEL/BUILD YEARS: Ford/Escape 2001-2004 MANUFACTURER: Ford Motor
Company NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 07V156000 MFR'S REPORT DATE: March 30, 2007
COMPONENT: Service Brakes, Hydraulic: Antilock: Control Unit/Module
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 446460
SUMMARY: On certain sport utility vehicles equipped with Antilock Brakes (ABS), the ABS module
connector may have missing or dislodged wire seals. This condition could allow contamination to
enter the module connector, creating a potential for an electrical short.
CONSEQUENCE: An electrical short might cause an ABS malfunction that would illuminate the
ABS warning light, and in some cases, the module may overheat resulting in burning odor, smoke,
and/or fire. This condition could occur either when the vehicle ignition switch is in the off position or
while the vehicle is being operated.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the wire harness connector to the ABS module for missing or
dislodged wire seals, and repair or replace the harness connector as appropriate. The dealer will
also inspect the connector on the ABS module and replace it if it is found to be corroded or
damaged. The recall began on April 23, 2007. Owners may contact Ford at 1-800-392-3673.
NOTES: Ford recall No. 07S51. Customers may also contact The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to

WHEEL SPEED SENSOR REMOVAL TIP
FORD: 2001-2005 Escape 2005 Escape Hybrid
MERCURY: 2005 Mariner
ISSUE When servicing the wheel speed sensors on a 2001-2005 Escape or 2005 Mariner and
Escape Hybrid, care must be taken during removal to prevent damage. The wheel speed sensor
wire has a body plug attached to it. This plug can be damaged if not removed correctly, such as
removal for pinpoint testing. If the body plug is damaged, sensor replacement may be necessary
even though the sensor is functional in all other respects.
ACTION
When removing the body plug, rotate the plug into a position which allows the use of a small
screwdriver to release the tabs on the underside of the body plug. These two tabs are at right
angles (directly above and below) to the sensor wire. See Figures 1 and 2 for reference.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5617
System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Charging System > Generator <--> [Alternator] > Component Information
> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5618
Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse/Locations and Relay/Locations contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses and
relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams show the current feed circuit. The current path is shown
from the battery to the ignition switch and to all fuses. It also shows the circuits protected by each
fuse. The circuit is traced from the fuse to the component. All details (wires, splices, connectors)
between the fuse and the first component are shown.
Ground Distribution

> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5620
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contain the diagrams that show the complete details for
each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
WARNINGS
^ Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
^ Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires being under a vehicle.

Troubleshooting wiring harness and connector hidden concerns
The illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation in each illustration.
NOTE: Several components, such as the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), utilize gold plated
terminals in their connections to the wiring harness. If those terminals need to be replaced, they
must be replaced with a gold plated terminal.

Generator Load
The Generator Load Input (GLI) circuit is used by the PCM to determine generator load on the
engine. As generator load increases the PCM will adjust idle speed accordingly. This strategy helps
reduce idle surges due to switching high current loads. The GLI signal is sent to the PCM from the
voltage regulator/generator. The signal is a variable frequency duty cycle. Normal operating
frequency is 40 - 250 Hz. Normal signal DC voltage (referenced to ground) is between 1.5 V (low
generator load) and 10.5 V (high generator load).

ISSUE
A "whining"/"buzzing" noise in the speakers of the entertainment radio or two-way radio on vehicles
with an in-tank electric fuel pump may be caused by electrical noise from the fuel pump.
ACTION
Install an electronic noise Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) Filter (F1PZ-18B925-A) on the fuel
pump inside the fuel tank. Refer to the following Test Procedure to confirm that the concern exists,
then refer to the Service Procedure for repair details.

Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Customer Interest for Electronic Noise Suppressor: > 02-16-4 > Aug
> 02 > Audio System - Whining/Buzzing Noise From Speakers > Page 5706
NOTE
IF THE VEHICLE HAS AN ELECTRONIC RETURNLESS FUEL SYSTEM, DO NOT INSTALL A
RFI FILTER INLINE TO THE FUEL PUMP . ONLY VEHICLES WITH MECHANICAL
RETURNLESS FUEL SYSTEMS (PRESSURE REGULATOR IN THE TANK), OR SYSTEMS
WITH THE PRESSURE REGULATOR ON THE FUEL RAIL SHOULD BE APPROVED FOR THE
RFI FILTER INSTALLATION.
NOTE
SOME LIGHT TRUCKS REQUIRE ONE (1) RFI FILTER FOR EACH IN-TANK ELECTRIC FUEL
PUMP ON MULTI-TANK VEHICLES.
NOTE
THIS TSB DOES NOT INCLUDE TAURUS FLEXIBLE FUEL VEHICLES (FFVS) OR 1999
RANGER 3.0L FFVS.
TEST PROCEDURE
Fuel pump radio noise is relatively constant and changes only slightly with vehicle speed. If the
frequency of the noise varies or the noise comes and goes with the vehicle speed, then it is not the
fuel pump and this fix will not be effective. The following procedure will help determine if the fuel
pump is the cause of the radio noise:
1. Turn on the radio before the key is turned on (assuming the radio will operate without the ignition
key - you may need to put the ignition key in the Accessory position).
2. Turn the ignition key to the Run position (do not start the engine).
3. The fuel pump should run for about 1 second with the key in the Run position with the engine not
running. Listen for noise in the radio. If noise is present while the pump is running and stops when
the pump stops, then the noise is being generated by the pump and this procedure should help.

ISSUE
A "whining"/"buzzing" noise in the speakers of the entertainment radio or two-way radio on vehicles
with an in-tank electric fuel pump may be caused by electrical noise from the fuel pump.
ACTION
Install an electronic noise Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) Filter (F1PZ-18B925-A) on the fuel
pump inside the fuel tank. Refer to the following Test Procedure to confirm that the concern exists,
then refer to the Service Procedure for repair details.

02-16-4 > Aug > 02 > Audio System - Whining/Buzzing Noise From Speakers > Page 5719
NOTE
IF THE VEHICLE HAS AN ELECTRONIC RETURNLESS FUEL SYSTEM, DO NOT INSTALL A
RFI FILTER INLINE TO THE FUEL PUMP . ONLY VEHICLES WITH MECHANICAL
RETURNLESS FUEL SYSTEMS (PRESSURE REGULATOR IN THE TANK), OR SYSTEMS
WITH THE PRESSURE REGULATOR ON THE FUEL RAIL SHOULD BE APPROVED FOR THE
RFI FILTER INSTALLATION.
NOTE
SOME LIGHT TRUCKS REQUIRE ONE (1) RFI FILTER FOR EACH IN-TANK ELECTRIC FUEL
PUMP ON MULTI-TANK VEHICLES.
NOTE
THIS TSB DOES NOT INCLUDE TAURUS FLEXIBLE FUEL VEHICLES (FFVS) OR 1999
RANGER 3.0L FFVS.
TEST PROCEDURE
Fuel pump radio noise is relatively constant and changes only slightly with vehicle speed. If the
frequency of the noise varies or the noise comes and goes with the vehicle speed, then it is not the
fuel pump and this fix will not be effective. The following procedure will help determine if the fuel
pump is the cause of the radio noise:
1. Turn on the radio before the key is turned on (assuming the radio will operate without the ignition
key - you may need to put the ignition key in the Accessory position).
2. Turn the ignition key to the Run position (do not start the engine).
3. The fuel pump should run for about 1 second with the key in the Run position with the engine not
running. Listen for noise in the radio. If noise is present while the pump is running and stops when
the pump stops, then the noise is being generated by the pump and this procedure should help.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5738
Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.

PCM FAILURE - ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES INTERMITTENT - INOPERATIVE
FORD: 2001-2004 Escape
ISSUE Some vehicles may exhibit a powertrain control module (PCM) concern that results in no
crank, no start, or malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) with one or more diagnostic trouble codes
(DTCs) present. There may also be intermittent or inoperative power windows, door locks, keyless
entry system, lighting, speed control, radio, instrument cluster warning lamps (possibly dimly
illuminated instead of being off), or other electrical accessories. The concern is typically more
noticeable in wet and/or cold weather conditions.
This may be the result of connector terminal corrosion in C134, C263, or the central junction box
(CJB) which results in either high resistance between the male and female terminals or a short
between two or more circuits due to bridging through any corrosion that may be present. Corrosion
in C134 may be the result of improper positioning/sealing of C134. Corrosion in C263 or the CJB
may be due to a water leak in the left hand A-Pillar area.
ACTION Follow the Service Procedure to inspect and repair the connector terminals for evidence
of corrosion. Repair any sources of water entry. If no signs of corrosion or water entry are found,
follow normal diagnostics.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
NOTE
WHEN DIAGNOSING THE CAUSE OF A PCM FAILURE IT IS CRITICAL THAT THIS
INSPECTION AND REPAIR PROCEDURE BE COMPLETED IN ITS ENTIRETY BEFORE
INSTALLING A REPLACEMENT SERVICE PART.
THE POSSIBILITY EXISTS FOR A 12 VOLT
SHORT TO THE 5 VOLT VREF (CIRCUIT). INSTALLATION OF A SERVICE REPLACEMENT
PCM WITHOUT ELIMINATING THE 12 VOLT SHORT WILL RESULT IN REPEAT PCM FAILURE.
Inspect and repair the following connectors:

PCM FAILURE - ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES INTERMITTENT - INOPERATIVE
FORD: 2001-2004 Escape
ISSUE Some vehicles may exhibit a powertrain control module (PCM) concern that results in no
crank, no start, or malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) with one or more diagnostic trouble codes
(DTCs) present. There may also be intermittent or inoperative power windows, door locks, keyless
entry system, lighting, speed control, radio, instrument cluster warning lamps (possibly dimly
illuminated instead of being off), or other electrical accessories. The concern is typically more
noticeable in wet and/or cold weather conditions.
This may be the result of connector terminal corrosion in C134, C263, or the central junction box
(CJB) which results in either high resistance between the male and female terminals or a short
between two or more circuits due to bridging through any corrosion that may be present. Corrosion
in C134 may be the result of improper positioning/sealing of C134. Corrosion in C263 or the CJB
may be due to a water leak in the left hand A-Pillar area.
ACTION Follow the Service Procedure to inspect and repair the connector terminals for evidence
of corrosion. Repair any sources of water entry. If no signs of corrosion or water entry are found,
follow normal diagnostics.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
NOTE
WHEN DIAGNOSING THE CAUSE OF A PCM FAILURE IT IS CRITICAL THAT THIS
INSPECTION AND REPAIR PROCEDURE BE COMPLETED IN ITS ENTIRETY BEFORE
INSTALLING A REPLACEMENT SERVICE PART.
THE POSSIBILITY EXISTS FOR A 12 VOLT
SHORT TO THE 5 VOLT VREF (CIRCUIT). INSTALLATION OF A SERVICE REPLACEMENT
PCM WITHOUT ELIMINATING THE 12 VOLT SHORT WILL RESULT IN REPEAT PCM FAILURE.
Inspect and repair the following connectors:

ACTION
REPAIR VS REPLACEMENT
The approved procedure is to repair wiring harnesses with pigtail kits, wire terminals, or hard shell
connectors when available. The only exceptions to this procedure are when:
^ The repair cost exceeds the cost to replace the wiring harness
^ There are no component parts released to service the wiring harness
RESTRAINTS RELATED WIRING REPAIRS
If restraints connectors or wiring circuits are contained in a stand-alone harness, do not repair
them; replace the restraints harness unless directed to repair the circuit by a TSB or other Ford
Motor Company publication.
If restraints connectors or wiring circuits are contained in the main vehicle wiring harnesses (14401,
14A005, etc.), they should be repaired using the solder and heat-shrink repair procedure specified
in this TSB. The General Wire Terminal Repair Kit contains gold plated terminated pigtails (with
white insulation) and dual wall heat shrink tubing to perform these repairs. Loaded wiring pigtail kits
with gold plated terminals are also available in the parts catalog.

Service Tips
Refer to applicable model year wiring diagrams for circuit information.
Twisted Wire Circuits
For "Twisted Wire" circuit repair (Figure 1), the twisting must not be disrupted for more than 2" (51
mm) Twist the repaired wires in the same direction and with the same general twist rate as the
original wiring. Reapply the shielding on shielded circuits.

Stagger the repairs to minimize harness diameter and maintain harness length (Figure 2).
Any leads that are not going to be used need to be sealed with dual wall heat shrink and stowed
(Figure 2). Silicone must not be used.
Excess wire from the harness can be folded back on itself to maintain the harness length.
Reapply any convolute and tape that was removed to make the repair.
For 16 AGW and Smaller Diameter Wire

1. Strip 1-1/2" (37.2 mm) of insulation from Wire # 1 and 3/4" (19.5 mm) of insulation from Wire # 2,
taking care not to nick or cut wire strands (Figure 3). Pull wire straight from stripper. If wire is pulled
at an angle, wire strands may be cut off. If more than one (1) strand is cut off during stripping, cut
off the end and re-strip.
2. Install heat shrink tubing at least 1" (26 mm) away from one of the stripped ends being spliced.
Twist wires together. Solder wires together (Figure 4).
NOTE
USE ROSIN CORE MILDLY ACTIVATED (RMS) SOLDER. DO NOT USE ACID CORE SOLDER
FOR WIRE REPAIR.
3. Bend Wire # 1 back in a straight line for sealing (Figure 4). Inspect solder joint bond.
NOTE
WAIT FOR SOLDER TO COOL BEFORE MOVING WIRES.

4. Evenly position heat shrink tubing over wire repair (Figure 5).
NOTE
OVERLAP TUBING ON BOTH WIRES.
5. Use a shielded heat gun to heat the entire length of the heat shrink tubing until the hot melt
appears from both ends of the tubing. Durability of a heat shrink tubing splice is dependent on the
hot melt that will appear from both ends of the tube. The hot melt forms an adhesive seal between
the wire insulation and the heat shrink tubing, which prevents air and moisture from entering the
solder point (Figure 5).
For 14 AGW and Larger Diameter Wire (Excluding Restraints Wiring Repairs)
1. Strip 1/4" (6.35 mm) of insulation from pigtail wire end once the wire lengths are sized so repairs
can be staggered. Take care not to nick or cut wire strands. Pull wire straight from stripper. If wire
is pulled at an angle, wire strands may be cut off. If more than one (1) strand is cut off during
stripping, cut off the end and re-strip.

NOTE
THE STRIP LENGTH WILL VARY DEPENDING ON THE BUTT SPLICE AND WIRE IN
HARNESS. LONGER STRIP LENGTHS ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE WIRE NEEDS TO BE
FOLDED TO MATE WITH THE BUTT SPLICE. REFER TO FIGURE 10 CHART FOR STRIP
LENGTHS AND FOLDING TECHNIQUES.
2. Slide heat shrink tubing onto one (1) of the wire ends to be crimped, must be at least 1" (25.4
mm) away from stripped end (Figure 6).

3. Identify the appropriate crimping chamber of the Rotunda 164-R5901 Pro-Crimper (or
equivalent) by matching the wire size on the dies with the wire size stamped on the butt splice
(Figure 7). Hold the crimping tool so the identified wire sizes are facing you. Squeeze tool handles
together until the ratchet releases, then allow the jaws of the tool to open fully.
4. Center one (1) end of the butt splice on the appropriate crimping chamber. If visible, be sure to
place the brazed seam of the butt splice toward the indenter (Figure 8).
5. Hold the butt splice in place and squeeze the tool handles together until the ratchet engages
sufficiently to hold the butt splice in position (typically one (1) or two (2) clicks). DO NOT deform the
butt splice.

6. Insert stripped wire into the buff splice, making sure the insulation on wire does not enter the butt
splice (Figure 8).
7. Holding the wire in place, squeeze tool handles together until ratchet releases. Allow tool
handles to open, then remove crimped butt splice.
8. To crimp the other half of the splice, reposition the un-crimped wire barrel in the same crimping
chamber, and repeat Steps 3-8. If splice cannot be turned for crimping the other half, turn the tool
around.
9. Check for acceptable crimp.
a. Crimp should be centered on each end of the butt splice. It is acceptable for crimp to be slightly
off center, but not off the end of the buff splice (Figure 9-a).
b. Wire insulation does not enter butt splice. Wire is flush with or extends slightly beyond end of
buff splice (Figure 9-b).
c. Wire is visible through inspection hole of splices (Figure 9-c).
10. Evenly position heat shrink tubing over wire repair (Figure 5).
NOTE
OVERLAP TUBING ON BOTH WIRES.
11. Use a shielded heat gun to heat the entire length of the heat shrink tubing until the hot melt
appears from both ends of the tubing. Durability of a heat shrink tubing splice is dependent on the
hot melt that will appear from both ends of the tube. The hot melt forms an adhesive seal between
the wire insulation and the heat shrink tubing, which prevents air and moisture from entering the

ISSUE
A "whining"/"buzzing" noise in the speakers of the entertainment radio or two-way radio on vehicles
with an in-tank electric fuel pump may be caused by electrical noise from the fuel pump.
ACTION
Install an electronic noise Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) Filter (F1PZ-18B925-A) on the fuel
pump inside the fuel tank. Refer to the following Test Procedure to confirm that the concern exists,
then refer to the Service Procedure for repair details.

NOTE
IF THE VEHICLE HAS AN ELECTRONIC RETURNLESS FUEL SYSTEM, DO NOT INSTALL A
RFI FILTER INLINE TO THE FUEL PUMP . ONLY VEHICLES WITH MECHANICAL
RETURNLESS FUEL SYSTEMS (PRESSURE REGULATOR IN THE TANK), OR SYSTEMS
WITH THE PRESSURE REGULATOR ON THE FUEL RAIL SHOULD BE APPROVED FOR THE
RFI FILTER INSTALLATION.
NOTE
SOME LIGHT TRUCKS REQUIRE ONE (1) RFI FILTER FOR EACH IN-TANK ELECTRIC FUEL
PUMP ON MULTI-TANK VEHICLES.
NOTE
THIS TSB DOES NOT INCLUDE TAURUS FLEXIBLE FUEL VEHICLES (FFVS) OR 1999
RANGER 3.0L FFVS.
TEST PROCEDURE
Fuel pump radio noise is relatively constant and changes only slightly with vehicle speed. If the
frequency of the noise varies or the noise comes and goes with the vehicle speed, then it is not the
fuel pump and this fix will not be effective. The following procedure will help determine if the fuel
pump is the cause of the radio noise:
1. Turn on the radio before the key is turned on (assuming the radio will operate without the ignition
key - you may need to put the ignition key in the Accessory position).
2. Turn the ignition key to the Run position (do not start the engine).
3. The fuel pump should run for about 1 second with the key in the Run position with the engine not
running. Listen for noise in the radio. If noise is present while the pump is running and stops when
the pump stops, then the noise is being generated by the pump and this procedure should help.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Information and Instructions > Page 6015
Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
WARNINGS
^ Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
^ Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires being under a vehicle.
^ Be sure that the Ignition Switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the
procedure.
^ Set the parking brake when working on any vehicle. An automatic transmission should be in
PARK. A manual transmission should be in NEUTRAL.
^ Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area to avoid danger of carbon monoxide.
^ Keep away from moving parts, especially the fan and belts, when the engine is running.
^ To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust
manifold, tailpipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery cell. An explosion could occur.
^ Do not smoke when working on a vehicle.
^ To avoid injury always remove rings, watches, loose hanging jewelry and avoid wearing loose

PCM FAILURE - ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES INTERMITTENT - INOPERATIVE
FORD: 2001-2004 Escape
ISSUE Some vehicles may exhibit a powertrain control module (PCM) concern that results in no
crank, no start, or malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) with one or more diagnostic trouble codes
(DTCs) present. There may also be intermittent or inoperative power windows, door locks, keyless
entry system, lighting, speed control, radio, instrument cluster warning lamps (possibly dimly
illuminated instead of being off), or other electrical accessories. The concern is typically more
noticeable in wet and/or cold weather conditions.
This may be the result of connector terminal corrosion in C134, C263, or the central junction box
(CJB) which results in either high resistance between the male and female terminals or a short
between two or more circuits due to bridging through any corrosion that may be present. Corrosion
in C134 may be the result of improper positioning/sealing of C134. Corrosion in C263 or the CJB
may be due to a water leak in the left hand A-Pillar area.
ACTION Follow the Service Procedure to inspect and repair the connector terminals for evidence
of corrosion. Repair any sources of water entry. If no signs of corrosion or water entry are found,
follow normal diagnostics.
SERVICE PROCEDURE

ISSUE The majority of repeat heater core leaks are due to high flow rate or use of poor quality
coolant. However, electrolysis should also be checked, especially when repeat repairs have
occurred.
ACTION If the heater core is leaking, review the location of the leakage and check the condition of
the coolant.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
1. Review the location of the leakage and check the condition of the coolant:
a. If leaks are found on the inlet (or outlet) tubes entering / exiting the heater core, it is most likely
due to due to high flow rate - replace the
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))

Technical Service Bulletins > All Other Service Bulletins for Multiple Junction Connector: > 06-21-19 > Oct > 06 > A/C Heater Core Electrolysis/Leakage > Page 6110
heater core and install a restrictor in the heater hose closest to the engine block, reference
Workshop Manual, Section 412.
b. If leaks are found in the body of the heater core itself, and does not appear to be the result of
physical damage like contact or puncture, check the coolant for possible electrolysis.
Testing For Electrolysis
Check for voltage in the cooling system by touching the negative contact of a voltmeter to the
battery ground or a known good ground and suspend the positive lead in the coolant, making sure
it is in contact with the coolant but not touching any metal part of the radiator or cooling system.
Both AC and DC voltages must be checked. Vehicles normally have DC voltages; however, a faulty
engine block heater or faulty diode in the alternator can produce AC voltages. It is understood that
coolant is lost due to heater core failure but try to obtain a voltage reading on the old coolant in the
engine block before addition to or replacement of. To keep more coolant from exiting the heater
core clamp off heater core lines and measure coolant in the engine block. Try not to dilute the
original coolant with new coolant during testing if possible.
1. Determine whether coolant condition is acceptable.
a. Remove both cables from the battery and ensure they do not contact each other or the vehicle.
b. Touch negative lead of voltmeter to engine ground and positive lead in the coolant.
NOTE
POSITIVE TEST PROBE IS IN THE COOLANT FOR TESTING.
c. Check the voltage in the cooling system. If less than or equal to 0.4 volts (V) OK, reconnect
battery cables and proceed to Step 2.
d. If greater than 0.4 V, flush cooling system thoroughly.
e. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V.
f. Reconnect battery cables.
g. Refill the system with appropriate Motorcraft® engine coolant.
2. Check for loose or missing grounds at static conditions.
a. Turn off all accessories. Turn ignition on but do not start engine.
b. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.
c. Voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V on all grounds OK.
d. Any one greater than 0.4 V, check and clean ground cable connections.
e. Check accessories without using the on off switch on the vehicle instrument panel, use a jumper
wire to ground.
f. Plug in engine block heater, if equipped, and test.
g. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V.
h. Unplug engine block heater, if equipped.
3. Check for loose, missing, or inadequate grounds.
a. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.
b. Crank engine but do not start.
c. Monitor voltage while cranking. less than or equal to 0.4 V OK
d. If greater than 0.4 V, ground or repair starter.
e. Start engine and run at about 2000 rpm.
f. Turn on all accessories including those customer only uses occasionally such as CB radio, cell
phone, etc.
g. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.

h. Voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V OK
i. If greater than 0.4 V, turn off one item at a time until V drops to less than or equal to 0.4 V. Repair
ground to the accessory just identified.
j. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V
k. Turn the DVOM to AC volts.
l. Check for ANY AC voltage greater than 0.4.
m. If any AC voltage is present then try turning off each accessory one at a time including blower
motor and any fan motors.
n. If AC voltage is still present then shut engine off and remove B+ from the alternator and tape it
up then retest.
o. If voltage drop is gradual to less than or equal to 0.4 V, the ground straps may simply be
overloaded by added accessories. Test by using heavy gauge jumper to ground. If indicated, install
heavier gauge ground strap(s) and recheck.
NOTE
If vehicle is equipped with electric cooling fans, be sure they cycle during this testing and monitor
voltage when they are on and when off.
CAUTION
DO NOT GROUND HEATER CORE. IF THE HEATER CORE IS GROUNDED, YOU HAVE
PROVIDED THE ELECTROLOSIS A PATH THROUGH THE HEATER CORE. THIS WOULD
CAUSE THE HEATER CORE TO BECOME AN ANODE OR RECEIVER AND IT WOULD
PROMOTE THE ELECTROLOSIS, OR ANY STRAY VOLTAGE TO USE THE COOLANT AS THE
GROUND PATH.
4. Refill the engine cooling system, reference Workshop Manual, Section 303-03.
NOTE
IF THE HEAT OUTPUT IS INSUFFICIENT, OR THE ENGINE DOES NOT REACH NORMAL
OPERATING TEMPERATURES, VERIFY PROPER THERMOSTAT OPERATION AND REPEAT
PROCEDURE IF REQUIRED.

o. If voltage drop is gradual to less than or equal to 0.4 V, the ground straps may simply be
overloaded by added accessories. Test by using heavy gauge jumper to ground. If indicated, install
heavier gauge ground strap(s) and recheck.
NOTE
If vehicle is equipped with electric cooling fans, be sure they cycle during this testing and monitor
voltage when they are on and when off.
CAUTION
DO NOT GROUND HEATER CORE. IF THE HEATER CORE IS GROUNDED, YOU HAVE
PROVIDED THE ELECTROLOSIS A PATH THROUGH THE HEATER CORE. THIS WOULD
CAUSE THE HEATER CORE TO BECOME AN ANODE OR RECEIVER AND IT WOULD
PROMOTE THE ELECTROLOSIS, OR ANY STRAY VOLTAGE TO USE THE COOLANT AS THE
GROUND PATH.
4. Refill the engine cooling system, reference Workshop Manual, Section 303-03.
NOTE
IF THE HEAT OUTPUT IS INSUFFICIENT, OR THE ENGINE DOES NOT REACH NORMAL
OPERATING TEMPERATURES, VERIFY PROPER THERMOSTAT OPERATION AND REPEAT
PROCEDURE IF REQUIRED.

REPAIR VS REPLACEMENT
The approved procedure is to repair wiring harnesses with pigtail kits, wire terminals, or hard shell
connectors when available. The only exceptions to this procedure are when:
^ The repair cost exceeds the cost to replace the wiring harness
^ There are no component parts released to service the wiring harness
RESTRAINTS RELATED WIRING REPAIRS
If restraints connectors or wiring circuits are contained in a stand-alone harness, do not repair
them; replace the restraints harness unless directed to repair the circuit by a TSB or other Ford
Motor Company publication.
If restraints connectors or wiring circuits are contained in the main vehicle wiring harnesses (14401,
14A005, etc.), they should be repaired using the solder and heat-shrink repair procedure specified
in this TSB. The General Wire Terminal Repair Kit contains gold plated terminated pigtails (with
white insulation) and dual wall heat shrink tubing to perform these repairs. Loaded wiring pigtail kits
with gold plated terminals are also available in the parts catalog.
Disclaimer
Service Tips
Refer to applicable model year wiring diagrams for circuit information.
Twisted Wire Circuits
For "Twisted Wire" circuit repair (Figure 1), the twisting must not be disrupted for more than 2" (51
mm) Twist the repaired wires in the same direction and with the same general twist rate as the
original wiring. Reapply the shielding on shielded circuits.

Stagger the repairs to minimize harness diameter and maintain harness length (Figure 2).
Any leads that are not going to be used need to be sealed with dual wall heat shrink and stowed
(Figure 2). Silicone must not be used.
Excess wire from the harness can be folded back on itself to maintain the harness length.
Reapply any convolute and tape that was removed to make the repair.
For 16 AGW and Smaller Diameter Wire

1. Strip 1-1/2" (37.2 mm) of insulation from Wire # 1 and 3/4" (19.5 mm) of insulation from Wire # 2,
taking care not to nick or cut wire strands (Figure 3). Pull wire straight from stripper. If wire is pulled
at an angle, wire strands may be cut off. If more than one (1) strand is cut off during stripping, cut
off the end and re-strip.
2. Install heat shrink tubing at least 1" (26 mm) away from one of the stripped ends being spliced.
Twist wires together. Solder wires together (Figure 4).
NOTE
USE ROSIN CORE MILDLY ACTIVATED (RMS) SOLDER. DO NOT USE ACID CORE SOLDER
FOR WIRE REPAIR.
3. Bend Wire # 1 back in a straight line for sealing (Figure 4). Inspect solder joint bond.
NOTE
WAIT FOR SOLDER TO COOL BEFORE MOVING WIRES.

4. Evenly position heat shrink tubing over wire repair (Figure 5).
NOTE
OVERLAP TUBING ON BOTH WIRES.
5. Use a shielded heat gun to heat the entire length of the heat shrink tubing until the hot melt
appears from both ends of the tubing. Durability of a heat shrink tubing splice is dependent on the
hot melt that will appear from both ends of the tube. The hot melt forms an adhesive seal between
the wire insulation and the heat shrink tubing, which prevents air and moisture from entering the
solder point (Figure 5).
For 14 AGW and Larger Diameter Wire (Excluding Restraints Wiring Repairs)
1. Strip 1/4" (6.35 mm) of insulation from pigtail wire end once the wire lengths are sized so repairs
can be staggered. Take care not to nick or cut wire strands. Pull wire straight from stripper. If wire
is pulled at an angle, wire strands may be cut off. If more than one (1) strand is cut off during
stripping, cut off the end and re-strip.

NOTE
THE STRIP LENGTH WILL VARY DEPENDING ON THE BUTT SPLICE AND WIRE IN
HARNESS. LONGER STRIP LENGTHS ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE WIRE NEEDS TO BE
FOLDED TO MATE WITH THE BUTT SPLICE. REFER TO FIGURE 10 CHART FOR STRIP
LENGTHS AND FOLDING TECHNIQUES.
2. Slide heat shrink tubing onto one (1) of the wire ends to be crimped, must be at least 1" (25.4
mm) away from stripped end (Figure 6).

3. Identify the appropriate crimping chamber of the Rotunda 164-R5901 Pro-Crimper (or
equivalent) by matching the wire size on the dies with the wire size stamped on the butt splice
(Figure 7). Hold the crimping tool so the identified wire sizes are facing you. Squeeze tool handles
together until the ratchet releases, then allow the jaws of the tool to open fully.
4. Center one (1) end of the butt splice on the appropriate crimping chamber. If visible, be sure to
place the brazed seam of the butt splice toward the indenter (Figure 8).
5. Hold the butt splice in place and squeeze the tool handles together until the ratchet engages
sufficiently to hold the butt splice in position (typically one (1) or two (2) clicks). DO NOT deform the
butt splice.

6. Insert stripped wire into the buff splice, making sure the insulation on wire does not enter the butt
splice (Figure 8).
7. Holding the wire in place, squeeze tool handles together until ratchet releases. Allow tool
handles to open, then remove crimped butt splice.
8. To crimp the other half of the splice, reposition the un-crimped wire barrel in the same crimping
chamber, and repeat Steps 3-8. If splice cannot be turned for crimping the other half, turn the tool
around.
9. Check for acceptable crimp.
a. Crimp should be centered on each end of the butt splice. It is acceptable for crimp to be slightly
off center, but not off the end of the buff splice (Figure 9-a).
b. Wire insulation does not enter butt splice. Wire is flush with or extends slightly beyond end of
buff splice (Figure 9-b).
c. Wire is visible through inspection hole of splices (Figure 9-c).
10. Evenly position heat shrink tubing over wire repair (Figure 5).
NOTE
OVERLAP TUBING ON BOTH WIRES.
11. Use a shielded heat gun to heat the entire length of the heat shrink tubing until the hot melt
appears from both ends of the tubing. Durability of a heat shrink tubing splice is dependent on the
hot melt that will appear from both ends of the tube. The hot melt forms an adhesive seal between
the wire insulation and the heat shrink tubing, which prevents air and moisture from entering the
solder point (Figure 5).

REPAIR VS REPLACEMENT
The approved procedure is to repair wiring harnesses with pigtail kits, wire terminals, or hard shell
connectors when available. The only exceptions to this procedure are when:
^ The repair cost exceeds the cost to replace the wiring harness
^ There are no component parts released to service the wiring harness
RESTRAINTS RELATED WIRING REPAIRS
If restraints connectors or wiring circuits are contained in a stand-alone harness, do not repair
them; replace the restraints harness unless directed to repair the circuit by a TSB or other Ford
Motor Company publication.
If restraints connectors or wiring circuits are contained in the main vehicle wiring harnesses (14401,
14A005, etc.), they should be repaired using the solder and heat-shrink repair procedure specified
in this TSB. The General Wire Terminal Repair Kit contains gold plated terminated pigtails (with
white insulation) and dual wall heat shrink tubing to perform these repairs. Loaded wiring pigtail kits
with gold plated terminals are also available in the parts catalog.

Service Tips
Refer to applicable model year wiring diagrams for circuit information.
Twisted Wire Circuits
For "Twisted Wire" circuit repair (Figure 1), the twisting must not be disrupted for more than 2" (51
mm) Twist the repaired wires in the same direction and with the same general twist rate as the
original wiring. Reapply the shielding on shielded circuits.

Stagger the repairs to minimize harness diameter and maintain harness length (Figure 2).
Any leads that are not going to be used need to be sealed with dual wall heat shrink and stowed
(Figure 2). Silicone must not be used.
Excess wire from the harness can be folded back on itself to maintain the harness length.
Reapply any convolute and tape that was removed to make the repair.
For 16 AGW and Smaller Diameter Wire

1. Strip 1-1/2" (37.2 mm) of insulation from Wire # 1 and 3/4" (19.5 mm) of insulation from Wire # 2,
taking care not to nick or cut wire strands (Figure 3). Pull wire straight from stripper. If wire is pulled
at an angle, wire strands may be cut off. If more than one (1) strand is cut off during stripping, cut
off the end and re-strip.
2. Install heat shrink tubing at least 1" (26 mm) away from one of the stripped ends being spliced.
Twist wires together. Solder wires together (Figure 4).
NOTE
USE ROSIN CORE MILDLY ACTIVATED (RMS) SOLDER. DO NOT USE ACID CORE SOLDER
FOR WIRE REPAIR.
3. Bend Wire # 1 back in a straight line for sealing (Figure 4). Inspect solder joint bond.
NOTE
WAIT FOR SOLDER TO COOL BEFORE MOVING WIRES.

4. Evenly position heat shrink tubing over wire repair (Figure 5).
NOTE
OVERLAP TUBING ON BOTH WIRES.
5. Use a shielded heat gun to heat the entire length of the heat shrink tubing until the hot melt
appears from both ends of the tubing. Durability of a heat shrink tubing splice is dependent on the
hot melt that will appear from both ends of the tube. The hot melt forms an adhesive seal between
the wire insulation and the heat shrink tubing, which prevents air and moisture from entering the
solder point (Figure 5).
For 14 AGW and Larger Diameter Wire (Excluding Restraints Wiring Repairs)
1. Strip 1/4" (6.35 mm) of insulation from pigtail wire end once the wire lengths are sized so repairs
can be staggered. Take care not to nick or cut wire strands. Pull wire straight from stripper. If wire
is pulled at an angle, wire strands may be cut off. If more than one (1) strand is cut off during
stripping, cut off the end and re-strip.

NOTE
THE STRIP LENGTH WILL VARY DEPENDING ON THE BUTT SPLICE AND WIRE IN
HARNESS. LONGER STRIP LENGTHS ARE REQUIRED WHEN THE WIRE NEEDS TO BE
FOLDED TO MATE WITH THE BUTT SPLICE. REFER TO FIGURE 10 CHART FOR STRIP
LENGTHS AND FOLDING TECHNIQUES.
2. Slide heat shrink tubing onto one (1) of the wire ends to be crimped, must be at least 1" (25.4
mm) away from stripped end (Figure 6).

3. Identify the appropriate crimping chamber of the Rotunda 164-R5901 Pro-Crimper (or
equivalent) by matching the wire size on the dies with the wire size stamped on the butt splice
(Figure 7). Hold the crimping tool so the identified wire sizes are facing you. Squeeze tool handles
together until the ratchet releases, then allow the jaws of the tool to open fully.
4. Center one (1) end of the butt splice on the appropriate crimping chamber. If visible, be sure to
place the brazed seam of the butt splice toward the indenter (Figure 8).
5. Hold the butt splice in place and squeeze the tool handles together until the ratchet engages
sufficiently to hold the butt splice in position (typically one (1) or two (2) clicks). DO NOT deform the
butt splice.

6. Insert stripped wire into the buff splice, making sure the insulation on wire does not enter the butt
splice (Figure 8).
7. Holding the wire in place, squeeze tool handles together until ratchet releases. Allow tool
handles to open, then remove crimped butt splice.
8. To crimp the other half of the splice, reposition the un-crimped wire barrel in the same crimping
chamber, and repeat Steps 3-8. If splice cannot be turned for crimping the other half, turn the tool
around.
9. Check for acceptable crimp.
a. Crimp should be centered on each end of the butt splice. It is acceptable for crimp to be slightly
off center, but not off the end of the buff splice (Figure 9-a).
b. Wire insulation does not enter butt splice. Wire is flush with or extends slightly beyond end of
buff splice (Figure 9-b).
c. Wire is visible through inspection hole of splices (Figure 9-c).
10. Evenly position heat shrink tubing over wire repair (Figure 5).
NOTE
OVERLAP TUBING ON BOTH WIRES.
11. Use a shielded heat gun to heat the entire length of the heat shrink tubing until the hot melt
appears from both ends of the tubing. Durability of a heat shrink tubing splice is dependent on the
hot melt that will appear from both ends of the tube. The hot melt forms an adhesive seal between
the wire insulation and the heat shrink tubing, which prevents air and moisture from entering the
solder point (Figure 5).

Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Alignment > System Information > Technical Service Bulletins > By
Symptom for Alignment: > 04-21-4 > Nov > 04 > Steering - Improved Drift/Pull Diagnostics > Page 6244
Adjustment of camber and caster can be made by rotating the upper strut mount into one (1) of four
(4) positions. The orientation of the strut rod relative to the center of the hole for the mount
determines the alignment change. The strut rod is offset 180 degrees from the paint mark on the
strut bushing. Moving the strut rod inboard or outboard changes camber and moving the strut rod
forward or rearward changes caster. Regardless of the start setting, a 90 degree rotation will only
change one of the settings (caster or camber), and a 180 degree rotation will change both settings
(caster and camber).
ADDITIONAL FRONT CAMBER ADJUSTMENT:
The clearance between the bolts and the holes in the knuckle to strut joint allows front camber
adjustment beyond what the strut mount orientation provides. This additional adjustment can be
used on either of the front wheels to increase or decrease a camber split.
Rotating the upper strut mount is the primary and preferred method to adjust front camber. If
rotating the upper strut mount does not provide enough camber adjustment, perform the following
steps to achieve an approximate camber change of up to +/- 0.24 degrees per side:
1. Lift the vehicle up off its tires.
2. Replace the old strut to knuckle fasteners (bolts and nuts) with new fasteners, but do not torque
the new fasteners.
3. Move the top of the tire inboard or outboard to adjust camber (Figure 4).
a. If more negative camber is desired, push the top of the tire inboard.
b. If less negative camber is desired, pull the top of the tire outboard.
4. With the tire at the desired position, torque the new fasteners to 85 lb-ft (115 N.m).

Power Steering Pressure Switch
Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Switch
The Power Steering Pressure (PSP) switch (Figure 37) monitors the hydraulic pressure within the
power steering system. The PSP switch is a normally closed switch that opens as the hydraulic
pressure increases The PCM uses the input signal from the PSP switch to compensate for
additional loads on the engine by adjusting the idle rpm and preventing engine stall during parking
maneuvers. Also, the PSP switch signals the PCM to adjust transmission electronic pressure
control (EPC) pressure during the increased engine load, for example during parking maneuvers.

Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation
Power Steering Pressure Switch
Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Switch
The Power Steering Pressure (PSP) switch (Figure 37) monitors the hydraulic pressure within the
power steering system. The PSP switch is a normally closed switch that opens as the hydraulic
pressure increases The PCM uses the input signal from the PSP switch to compensate for
additional loads on the engine by adjusting the idle rpm and preventing engine stall during parking
maneuvers. Also, the PSP switch signals the PCM to adjust transmission electronic pressure
control (EPC) pressure during the increased engine load, for example during parking maneuvers.

Depowering and Repowering Procedure
Depowering Procedure
WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag supplemental restraint system
(SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event
of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: Never probe the connectors on the air bag module. Doing so can result in air bag
deployment, which can result in personal injury.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices.
NOTE: If a seat equipped with a seat mounted side air bag and/or a safety belt pretensioner (if
equipped) system is being serviced, the supplemental restraint system (SRS) must be depowered.
NOTE: The air bag warning lamp illuminates when the RCM fuse is removed and the ignition
switch is ON. This is normal operation and does not indicate a supplemental restraint system
(SRS) fault.
NOTE: The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the
customer.
1. Turn all vehicle accessories OFF.
2. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
3. At the central junction box (CJB), located below the LH side of the instrument panel, remove the
cover and the restraints control module (RCM)
fuse F2.5 (5A) and F2.7 (10A) from the CJB.
4. Turn the ignition ON and visually monitor the air bag indicator for at least 30 seconds. The air
bag indicator will remain lit continuously (no
flashing) if the correct RCM fuse has been removed. If the air bag indicator does not remain lit
continuously, remove the correct RCM fuse before proceeding.
5. Turn the ignition OFF.
6. WARNING: To avoid accidental deployment and possible personal injury, the backup power
supply must be depleted before repairing or
replacing any front or side air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) components and before
servicing, replacing, adjusting or striking components near the front or side air bag sensors, such
as doors, instrument panel, console, door latches, strikers, seats and hood latches. The side
impact sensors (if equipped) are located at or near the base of the B-pillars.
To deplete the backup power supply energy, disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least
one minute. Be sure to disconnect auxiliary batteries and power supplies (if equipped).
Disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least one minute.
Repowering Procedure
1. WARNING: The restraint system diagnostic tool is for restraint system service only. Remove
from vehicle prior to road use. Failure to
remove could result in injury and possible violation of vehicle safety standards.
Make sure all restraint system diagnostic tool(s) that may have been installed during the repair
have been removed from the vehicle and all SRS components are connected.
2. Turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON.
3. Install RCM fuses F2.5 (5A) and F2.7 (10A) to the CJB and close the cover.
4. WARNING: Be sure that nobody is in the vehicle and that there is nothing blocking or set in front
of any air bag module when the
battery ground cable is connected.
Connect the battery ground cable.
5. Prove out the supplemental restraint system (SRS) as follows:
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Steering > Steering Column > Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming >
System Information > Service and Repair > Air Bag Disarming and Arming > Page 6334
Turn the ignition key from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the key back to ON and visually
monitor the air bag indicator with the air bag modules installed. The air bag indicator will light
continuously for approximately six seconds and then turn off. If an air bag supplemental restraint
system (SRS) fault is present, the air bag indicator will either:
- fail to light.
- remain lit continuously.
- flash.
The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been
turned from the OFF to the ON position. This is the time required for the restraints control module
(RCM) to complete the testing of the SRS. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and a SRS fault
exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator
and any SRS fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired.
Clear all continuous DTCs from the restraints control module using a scan tool.
Seats Removed
There are two deactivation procedures.
^ One procedure requires removal of the front seats. This procedure will be used when diagnosing
or repairing a seat side air bag concern. This procedure will also be used when diagnosing or
repairing any in-seat or seat-mounted component of a seat equipped with a seat side air bag. The

Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming: Service and Repair Prove Out Procedure
Turn the ignition switch from the OFF to the RUN position and visually monitor the air bag indicator
with the air bag modules or restraint system diagnostic tools installed. The air bag indicator will light
continuously for approximately six seconds and then turn off. If an air bag Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS) fault is present, the air bag indicator will either:
^ fail to light.
^ remain lit continuously.
^ flash.
The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been
turned from the OFF to the RUN position. This is the time required for the Restraints Control
Module (RCM) to complete the testing of the SRS. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and an
SRS fault exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air bag
indicator will need to be repaired before diagnosis can continue.

ISSUE This article is to be used as an updated procedure for inspecting tie rod end wear.
ACTION This procedure is designed to supplement the Workshop Manual, as it provides a more
detailed tie rod end inspection procedure.
SERVICE INFORMATION
NOTE
FOR ESCAPE VEHICLES, THIS TIE ROD END INSPECTION PROCEDURE SHOULD ONLY BE
COMPLETED ON THE OUTER TIE RODS. FOR ESCAPE INNER TIE ROD INSPECTION
PROCEDURES, REFER TO WORKSHOP MANUAL SECTION 211-00.
Step 1 - Free Play:
Check the outer tie rod ends by grasping by hand and push up and down. Check the inner tie rod
ends, pushing them front to rear. If any free play is observed in a joint, it is worn and should be
replaced.
Step 2 - Stud Lash - Free Play:
While vehicle is on the ground or on a drive-on hoist, have an assistant rotate the steering wheel
rapidly back and forth from 10 o'clock to 2 o'clock to 10 o'clock while observing the inner and outer
tie rods. If the outer tie rod ends have any vertical movement or the inner tie rod ends have any
horizontal movement, the tie rod end with the observed movement should be replaced.
Step 3 - Seal Inspection:
Raise the vehicle on a hoist and remove the front wheels. The wheels will need to be turned to the
right in order to inspect the passenger side inner tie rod end and to the left to inspect the drivers
side inner tie rod end. Inspect all four seals for tears, perforations and wear. If there is any
indication of wear or perforations on the seal, that tie rod end should be replaced.
Step 4 - Stud Corrosion:
For Escape Vehicles - If Squeak is noticed during Step 2, disconnect tie rod from knuckle and

Technical Service Bulletins > Steering - Tie Rod End Inspection Procedures > Page 6379
For All Other Vehicles Covered In This Article:
Using a wrench, rotate the tie rod end so that the front of the seal on the outer tie rod end is
expanded (Figure 1). Using a puffy knife or other hard, flat, dull object, lift the bottom of the seal up,
exposing the stud (Figure 2). If any water escapes from the seal in the form of bubbles or in a liquid
form, that tie rod end should be replaced. Closely examine the stud for signs of corrosion,
especially around the interface with the knuckle. A rag might be needed to clean off any grease on
the stud that impairs a good visual inspection. If there is any sign of corrosion, that tie rod end
should be replaced.
Rotate the tie rod end in the opposite direction to expand the inner tie rod seal. Repeat the
inspection procedure used on the outer tie rod. Repeat this entire procedure on the other side of
the vehicle. If there is sign of corrosion, that tie rod end should be replaced.
NOTE
IF ANY TIE ROD ENDS ARE REMOVED, INSPECT THE SEAL AND THE STUD AGAIN NOTING
ANY DIFFERENCES IN VISUAL PERCEPTIONS FROM WHEN THE PART WAS ON THE
VEHICLE. CHECKING THE STUD AFTER REMOVAL HELPS IMPROVE CONSCIOUSNESS OF
ISSUES WHEN INSPECTING PARTS ON VEHICLE.

LOWER CONTROL ARM BUSHING INSPECTION PROCEDURE
FORD: 2001-2009 Escape 2005-2009 Escape Hybrid
MERCURY: 2005-2009 Mariner 2006-2009 Mariner Hybrid
ISSUE Many states and Canadian provinces require annual safety inspections which include the
evaluation of suspension components. The information in this procedure is intended to assist the
technician performing the inspection with specific criteria for 2001-2009 Escape and Mariner lower
control arm (LCA) bushings and will prevent the unnecessary replacement of good components.
ACTION Inspect according to the procedure below.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
The LCA bushing is located at the rear of the front suspension lower control arm. The bushing is
identified as number 1 of Figure 1. The control arm is mounted in the front subframe with bolts
number 2 and number 3. The bushing is part of the LCA and cannot be serviced separately from
the arm.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Suspension > Control Arm > Control Arm Bushing > Component
Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Steering/Suspension - Control Arm Bushing Inspection > Page 6396
Figure 2 - Shows a new bushing prior to assembly into the control arm. Bolt number 2 passes
through the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve is pressed into the control arm. The rubber bushing
is bonded to both the inner and outer sleeves.
Figure 3 - Illustrates a generic bushing showing minor sur[ace cracks that do not adversely affect
the performance of the bushing. Bushings exhibiting sur[ace cracks with a depth less than 3/8" (10
mm) are acceptable and will continue to function normally. These do not require replacement.
Figure 4 - Illustrates a partial separation between the rubber and the outer sleeve. The bushing
may show signs of movement on the rubber surface, making the surface shiny. Bushings with a
separation or crack depth less than or equal to 3/8" (10 mm) are acceptable and meet all functional
requirements. These do not require replacement.
Bushings with a separation or crack greater than 3/8" (10 mm) in depth should be replaced. The
customer may hear a bang or clunk in the front suspension if there is enough separation for the
arm to contact the subframe. This does not affect the retention of the control arm to the vehicle as
the bushing is sandwiched in the subframe and held in place with the bolt. The vehicle can be
safely operated in this condition until the bushing is replaced.

ISSUE The purpose of this bulletin is to provide guidance when using tire/wheel assembly road
force measurement equipment such as the Hunter GSP97OO. This bulletin is authored and
endorsed by Hunter, Michelin, Goodyear, Continental/General, Hankook, Bridgestone/Firestone
and Pirelli. Items addressed are software upgrades, road test (exercise tires), assembly center
verification and warranty restrictions.
This type of equipment can be a valuable tool to improve customer satisfaction when used as a
vibration repair tool. This type of equipment can also provide a high level of customer satisfaction
when used as an assembly too! when the customer has purchased new wheels/tires in the
"Around-the-Wheel" program.
ACTION The Hunter GSP9700/9712 road force measurement tool is NOT to be used for
determining if a tire or wheel meets a specification. It can be used as a service diagnostic tool to
minimize road force variation of the tire/wheel assembly. The tool such as the Hunter GSP97OO
can approximate the low point of the "'1heel and the high point of the tire. This allows the tire to be
matched mounted to the wheel for lowest tire/wheel assembly road force variation. This will
minimize the contribution to vibration from the tire/wheel assembly.

ISSUE
Under normal operating conditions, customers may notice accumulation of brake dust on their
wheels. Some brake dust is inevitable as brakes wear and does not contribute to brake noise. The
use of modern friction materials with emphasis on improved performance and environmental
considerations can lead to more dust than in the past.
ACTION
Brake dust can be cleaned by weekly washing with Motorcraft Detail Wash (ZC-3-A) and a soft
sponge. Heavier deposits can be removed with Motorcraft Wheel and Tire Cleaner (ZC-37-A).

Accumulator HVAC: Description and Operation
NOTE: Installation of a new suction accumulator is not necessary when repairing the air
conditioning system except when there is physical evidence of system contamination from a failed
A/C compressor or damage to the suction accumulator.
The suction accumulator is mounted to the A/C accumulator bracket. The inlet tube of the suction
accumulator is connected to the A/C evaporator outlet tube. The outlet tube is connected to the A/C
manifold and tube assembly.
After entering the inlet of the suction accumulator, heavier oil-laden refrigerant contacts an
internally mounted dome (which serves as an umbrella) and drips down onto the bottom of the
canister.
^ A small diameter oil bleed hole, in the bottom of the vapor return tube, allows the accumulated
heavier liquid refrigerant and oil mixture to re-enter the compressor suction line at a controlled rate.
^ As the heavier mixture passes through the small diameter liquid bleed hole, it has a second
chance to vaporize and recirculate through the A/C compressor without causing compressor
damage due to slugging.
^ A fine mesh screened filter fits tightly around the bottom of the vapor return tube to filter out
refrigerant system contaminant particles.
^ A desiccant bag is mounted inside the canister to absorb any moisture which may be in the
refrigerant system.
^ A fitting located on the top of the suction accumulator is used to attach the A/C cycling switch. A
long-travel Schrader-type valve stem core is installed in the fitting so that the A/C cycling switch
can be removed without discharging the A/C system.

Compressor Clutch: Description and Operation
A/C compressor and Clutch Assembly
NOTE:
^ Internal A/C compressor components are not repaired separately. Install a new FS-10 A/C
compressor only as an assembly. The A/C clutch, A/C clutch pulley, A/C clutch field coil and the
shaft seals are repairable.
^ Installation of a new suction accumulator is not required when repairing the air conditioning
system except when there is physical evidence of system contamination from a failed A/C
compressor or damage to the suction accumulator.
The FS-10 A/C compressor has the following characteristics:
^ a 10-cylinder swashplate design utilizing the tangential design mount
^ displacement of 170 cc (10.4 cubic inches)
^ A one-piece lip-type seal (repaired from the front of the A/C compressor) is used to seal it at the
shaft opening in the assembly.
^ Five double-acting pistons operate within the cylinder assembly. The pistons are actuated by a
swashplate that changes the rotating action of the shaft to a reciprocating force.
^ Reed-type discharge valves are located between the cylinder assembly and the head at each end
of the A/C compressor.
^ The A/C compressor uses PAG Compressor Oil YN-12-C or equivalent meeting Ford
specification WSH-M1C231-B. This oil contains special additives necessary for the A/C
compressor.
^ The A/C compressor oil from vehicles equipped with an FS-10 A/C compressor may have a dark
color while maintaining a normal oil viscosity. This is normal for this A/C compressor because
carbon from the piston rings will discolor the oil.
Compressor Clutch Components
The magnetic A/C clutch has the following characteristics:
^ It drives the compressor shaft.
^ When battery positive voltage (B+) is applied to the A/C clutch field coil, the clutch disc and hub
assembly is drawn toward the A/C clutch pulley.
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Compressor HVAC > Compressor Clutch > Component
Information > Specifications > Page 6742
^ The magnetic force locks the clutch disc and hub assembly and the A/C clutch pulley together as
one unit, causing the compressor shaft to rotate.
^ When B+ is removed from the A/C clutch field coil, springs in the clutch disc and hub assembly
move the clutch disc away from the A/C clutch pulley.

NOTE: Installation of a new suction accumulator is not necessary when repairing the air
conditioning system except when there is physical evidence of system contamination from a failed
A/C compressor or damage to the suction accumulator.
The A/C condenser core has the following characteristics:
^ It is an aluminum fin-and-tube design heat exchanger located in front of the vehicle radiator.
^ It cools compressed refrigerant gas by allowing air to pass over the fins and tubes to extract heat
and by condensing gas to liquid refrigerant as it is cooled.

Condenser HVAC: Testing and Inspection
ON-VEHICLE LEAK TEST
1. Discharge and recover the refrigerant. 2. Disconnect the suspect A/C evaporator core or A/C
condenser core from the A/C system.
NOTE: DO NOT leak test an A/C evaporator core with the suction accumulator/drier attached to the
core tubes.
3. Clean the spring lock couplings. 4. Connect the appropriate test fittings from the A/C Test Fitting
Set to the evaporator or condenser tube connections. 5. Connect the red and blue hoses from the
manifold gauge set to the test fittings on the A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core. Connect
the
yellow hose to a known good vacuum pump.
NOTE: The automatic shut-off valves on some gauge set hoses do not open when connected to
the test fittings. If available, use hoses without shut-off valves. If hoses with shut-off valves are
used, make sure the valve opens when attached to the test fittings or install an adapter which will
activate the valve. The test is not valid if the shut-off valve does not open.
6. Open both gauge set valves and start the vacuum pump. Allow the vacuum pump to operate for
a minimum of 45 minutes after the gauge set low
pressure gauge indicates 101 kPa (30 in-Hg). The 45-minute evacuation is necessary to remove
any refrigerant from oil left in the A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core. If the refrigerant is
not completely removed from the oil, outgassing will degrade the vacuum and appear as a
refrigerant leak.
7. If the low pressure gauge reading will not drop to 101 kPa (30 in-Hg) when the valves on the
gauge and manifold set are open and the vacuum
pump is operating, close the gauge set valves and observe the low pressure gauge. If the pressure
rises rapidly to zero, a large leak is indicated. Recheck the test fitting connections and gauge set
connections before installing a new A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core.
8. After evacuating for 45 minutes, close the gauge set valves and stop the vacuum pump.
Observe the low pressure gauge; it should remain at the
101 kPa (30 in-Hg) mark. ^
If the low pressure gauge reading rises 34 or more kPa (10 or more in-Hg) of vacuum from the 101
kPa (30 in-Hg) position in 10 minutes, a leak is indicated.
^ If a very small leak is suspected, wait 30 minutes and observe the vacuum gauge.
^ If a small amount of vacuum is lost, operate the vacuum pump with gauge valves open for an
additional 30 minutes to remove any remaining refrigerant from the oil in the A/C evaporator core or
A/C condenser core. Then recheck for loss of vacuum.
^ If a very small leak is suspected, allow the system to sit overnight with vacuum applied and check
for vacuum loss.
9. If the A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core does leak, as verified by the above procedure,
install a new A/C evaporator core or A/C
condenser core.

CAUTION:
^ Do not use metal tools to remove the O-ring seals. They can cause axial scratches across the
O-ring seal grooves resulting in refrigerant leaks.
^ Do not use a screwdriver or similar tool to remove the A/C tube lock coupling spring; this can
cause axial scratches across the O-ring seal grooves resulting in refrigerant leaks.
^ Maintain low speed drill rotation when inserting or removing the cleaning tool to prevent axial
scratches which may cause future leaks.
^ Use only new green/purple O-ring seals. The use of any O-ring seals other than specified may
result in intermittent leakage during vehicle operation.
^ Support the female fitting with a wrench to prevent the tubes from twisting.

Coupler HVAC: Description and Operation
Spring Lock Coupling
Spring Lock Coupling
The spring lock coupling is a refrigerant line coupling held together by a garter spring inside a
circular cage. ^
When the coupling is connected together, the flared end of the female fitting slips behind the garter
spring inside the cage of the male fitting.
^ The garter spring and cage then prevent the flared end of the female fitting from pulling out of the
cage.
^ The O-ring seals are green in color and are made of a special material.
^ Use only the green O-ring seals listed in the Ford Master Parts Catalog for the spring lock
coupling.
^ A plastic indicator ring is used on the spring lock couplings of the A/C evaporator core to indicate,
during vehicle assembly, that the coupling is connected. Once the coupling is connected, the
indicator ring is no longer necessary but will remain captive by the coupling near the cage opening.
^ An A/C tube lock coupling clip may be used to secure the coupling but is not necessary.
Air Conditioning Line (Peanut) Fitting
The air conditioning line (peanut) fitting is an integral part of the refrigeration line or component. ^
The male and female blocks of the air conditioning line (peanut) fitting are retained with a nut.
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Coupler HVAC > Component Information > Diagrams > Page
6813
^ An O-ring seal is installed around the tube on the male block.
^ The female block is welded to the tube and is not adjustable.
^ Support the female fittings with a wrench to prevent twisting of the tubes.
^ The male block will pivot around the tube to allow for alignment with the female block during
assembly.
^ When correctly assembled the male and female fittings should be flush.

The first step in diagnosing an odor concern is to verify the concern. To verify an odor you must
determine when and under what circumstances the odor occurs and what type of odor it is.
Chemical odors are usually constant regardless of A/C setting and can be enhanced by A/C
system operation. Most chemical odors are caused by fluid leaks and some are caused by
improperly cured carpet and trim adhesives or evaporator core coatings.
Environmental odors usually occur for a short time and go away after the vehicle has passed
through the affected area. These odors are usually only detected when a window is open or the
A/C system is operating in a function that allows outside air to enter the vehicle.
Microbiological odors, if in the A/C system, usually last for about 30 seconds when first turned on
and will be detected in both Max and Normal A/C. Microbiological odors occurring elsewhere such
as from standing water in doors or kick panels or wet carpeting may last indefinitely and will be
more intense in Max A/C. Microbiological odors will not occur at temperatures below 50° F (10° C).
Human and other interior-generated odors occur while the source is present and may linger for a
short time after removal. These odors can be more noticeable during operation of the A/C system.
They can be detected in the outside air position and may be more noticeable in recirculation mode.
The first step in getting rid of odors is to find the source of the odor. Once the source is found, it
must be removed and the affected area cleaned or treated.
Chemical odors can be removed by repairing or replacing the component that causes the odor and
then cleaning any residue that may have accumulated from the component failure.
Environmental odors usually cannot be removed due to the fact that they occur from external
sources and are an everyday occurrence. They can, however, be minimized by switching to Max
A/C or recirculation mode.
Microbiological odors can be eliminated by removing the source and then treating the affected
area. Standing water must be allowed to drain and dry out. A/C systems may be treated by using
Motorcraft A/C Cooling Coil Coating (YN-29), or equivalent meeting Ford specification
(WSS-M99B187-A) as described in the Service Procedure in this article.
Human and other interior-generated odors can be eliminated by removing the source and cleaning
the affected area.
A/C Odor Treatment Procedure
1. Try to reasonably rule out any other source for the odor. Check the carpet on the passenger side
for signs of being wet. Continue diagnosis if water is found on carpet and repair as needed. Check
the blower motor and cover for signs of moisture. This may be as a result of water bypassing the
cowl baffling system that prevents rain intrusion.
2. Remove the engine side fasteners for the plenum cover. This will allow access to the Cowl Top
Panel - Water RH. Remove this and inspect the air inlet screen. Use a shop vacuum if there is
debris present. This debris may work its way into the evaporator case and act as food for the
microbes to grow. Re-install the cowl components.
3. Check to see that the evaporator drain tube (or hose) is not plugged or restricted by debris.
Clear anything that may be obstructing the drainage of water.
4. Open vehicle windows.
5. Disconnect A/C cycling switch electrical connector.
6. Set the following:

^ Function selector switch in A/C mode
^ Temperature at full heat Blower at high speed
^ Engine running at normal operating temperature
7. Run vehicle (Steps 4-6 conditions) for 25 minutes. This will dry out the system.
8. Turn ignition off.
9. Disconnect and remove the blower motor and blower motor resistor by referring to Workshop
Manual, Section 412-02 - Blower Motor. (This provides ease of access to the evaporator core and
eliminates the possibility of contaminating the blower motor and/or blower motor resister with the
Motorcraft A/C Cooling Coil Coating.)
NOTE
TO AVOID ANY POSSIBLE DAMAGE, DO NOT SPILL OR SPRAY THIS PRODUCT ON ANY
INTERIOR SURFACE (E.G., INSTRUMENT PANEL) OR MATERIAL (E.G., CARPETING).
10. Add the full four (4) fluid ounces (1 bottle) of Motorcraft A/C Cooling Coil Coating (YN-29) to the
Rotunda A/C Disodorizer Sprayer (Rotunda 164-R4700). For effective treatment, use the full four
(4) fluid ounces on one vehicle application. Insert the A/C Disodorizer sprayer nozzle into the
opening in the evaporator case and direct toward the face of the evaporator core. Spray Motorcraft
A/C Cooling Coil Coating until empty.
11. Reinstall and reconnect blower motor resistor and blower motor.
12. Repeat Steps 6, 7, and 8 to cure the Cooling Coil Coating.
13. Reconnect A/C cycling switch.
Air Inlet Vacuum Motor Bleed Valve Tee Installation
1. Remove the passenger front air bag. Refer to Workshop Manual Section 501-20B for procedure.
2. Disconnect vacuum line at air inlet door vacuum motor. Install bleed valve tee Part Number
3L8Z-19B888-AA into vacuum line 90 degree connector, and attach vacuum line with the vacuum
bleed tee to air inlet door vacuum motor. Refer to Workshop Manual Section 412-04 (Vacuum
Control Motor - Outside Air Inlet) for component location.
3. Follow Workshop Manual procedures for reinstalling passenger front air bag.

Evaporator Core: Description and Operation
NOTE: Installation of a new suction accumulator is not necessary when repairing the air
conditioning system except when there is physical evidence of system contamination from a failed
A/C component or damage to the suction accumulator.
The A/C evaporator housing contains the A/C evaporator core. The A/C evaporator core is the
plate/fin type with a unique refrigerant flow path.
^ A mixture of refrigerant and oil enters the bottom of the A/C evaporator core through the A/C
evaporator core inlet tube and is routed so it flows through the partitioned first four plate/fin
sections.
^ The next four plate/fin sections are partitioned to force the refrigerant to flow toward the other end
of the A/C evaporator core.
^ The next five plate/fin sections are partitioned to force the refrigerant to flow toward the bottom of
the A/C evaporator core.
^ Refrigerant then continues through to the remaining five plate/fin sections and then moves out of
the A/C evaporator core through the A/C evaporator core outlet tube.
^ This W-pass flow pattern transfers the flow of refrigerant and oil through the A/C evaporator core.

Evaporator Core: Testing and Inspection
ON-VEHICLE LEAK TEST
1. Discharge and recover the refrigerant. 2. Disconnect the suspect A/C evaporator core or A/C
condenser core from the A/C system.
NOTE: DO NOT leak test an A/C evaporator core with the suction accumulator/drier attached to the
core tubes.
3. Clean the spring lock couplings. 4. Connect the appropriate test fittings from the A/C Test Fitting
Set to the evaporator or condenser tube connections. 5. Connect the red and blue hoses from the
manifold gauge set to the test fittings on the A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core. Connect
the
yellow hose to a known good vacuum pump.
NOTE: The automatic shut-off valves on some gauge set hoses do not open when connected to
the test fittings. If available, use hoses without shut-off valves. If hoses with shut-off valves are
used, make sure the valve opens when attached to the test fittings or install an adapter which will
activate the valve. The test is not valid if the shut-off valve does not open.
6. Open both gauge set valves and start the vacuum pump. Allow the vacuum pump to operate for
a minimum of 45 minutes after the gauge set low
pressure gauge indicates 101 kPa (30 in-Hg). The 45-minute evacuation is necessary to remove
any refrigerant from oil left in the A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core. If the refrigerant is
not completely removed from the oil, outgassing will degrade the vacuum and appear as a
refrigerant leak.
7. If the low pressure gauge reading will not drop to 101 kPa (30 in-Hg) when the valves on the
gauge and manifold set are open and the vacuum
pump is operating, close the gauge set valves and observe the low pressure gauge. If the pressure
rises rapidly to zero, a large leak is indicated. Recheck the test fitting connections and gauge set
connections before installing a new A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core.
8. After evacuating for 45 minutes, close the gauge set valves and stop the vacuum pump.
Observe the low pressure gauge; it should remain at the
101 kPa (30 in-Hg) mark. ^
If the low pressure gauge reading rises 34 or more kPa (10 or more in-Hg) of vacuum from the 101
kPa (30 in-Hg) position in 10 minutes, a leak is indicated.
^ If a very small leak is suspected, wait 30 minutes and observe the vacuum gauge.
^ If a small amount of vacuum is lost, operate the vacuum pump with gauge valves open for an
additional 30 minutes to remove any remaining refrigerant from the oil in the A/C evaporator core or
A/C condenser core. Then recheck for loss of vacuum.
^ If a very small leak is suspected, allow the system to sit overnight with vacuum applied and check
for vacuum loss.
9. If the A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core does leak, as verified by the above procedure,
install a new A/C evaporator core or A/C
condenser core.

A/C Evaporator Temperature (ACET) Sensor Voltage And Resistance Chart, Part 1
A/C Evaporator Temperature (ACET) Sensor Voltage And Resistance Chart, Part 2
The Air Conditioning Evaporative Temperature (ACET) sensor senses evaporator air discharge
temperature. The ACET sensor is a thermistor device in which resistance changes with
temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and
increases as the temperature decreases. The PCM sources a low current 5 volts on the ACET
circuit. With SIG RTN also connected to the ACET sensor, the varying resistance affects the
voltage drop across the sensor terminals. As A/C evaporator air temperature changes, the varying
resistance of the ACET sensor changes the voltage the PCM detects.
The ACET sensor is used to more accurately control A/C clutch cycling, improving defrost/demist
performance, reduce A/C clutch cycling, etc.

ISSUE The majority of repeat heater core leaks are due to high flow rate or use of poor quality
coolant. However, electrolysis should also be checked, especially when repeat repairs have
occurred.
ACTION If the heater core is leaking, review the location of the leakage and check the condition of
the coolant.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
1. Review the location of the leakage and check the condition of the coolant:
a. If leaks are found on the inlet (or outlet) tubes entering / exiting the heater core, it is most likely
due to due to high flow rate - replace the

heater core and install a restrictor in the heater hose closest to the engine block, reference
Workshop Manual, Section 412.
b. If leaks are found in the body of the heater core itself, and does not appear to be the result of
physical damage like contact or puncture, check the coolant for possible electrolysis.
Testing For Electrolysis
Check for voltage in the cooling system by touching the negative contact of a voltmeter to the
battery ground or a known good ground and suspend the positive lead in the coolant, making sure
it is in contact with the coolant but not touching any metal part of the radiator or cooling system.
Both AC and DC voltages must be checked. Vehicles normally have DC voltages; however, a faulty
engine block heater or faulty diode in the alternator can produce AC voltages. It is understood that
coolant is lost due to heater core failure but try to obtain a voltage reading on the old coolant in the
engine block before addition to or replacement of. To keep more coolant from exiting the heater
core clamp off heater core lines and measure coolant in the engine block. Try not to dilute the
original coolant with new coolant during testing if possible.
1. Determine whether coolant condition is acceptable.
a. Remove both cables from the battery and ensure they do not contact each other or the vehicle.
b. Touch negative lead of voltmeter to engine ground and positive lead in the coolant.
NOTE
POSITIVE TEST PROBE IS IN THE COOLANT FOR TESTING.
c. Check the voltage in the cooling system. If less than or equal to 0.4 volts (V) OK, reconnect
battery cables and proceed to Step 2.
d. If greater than 0.4 V, flush cooling system thoroughly.
e. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V.
f. Reconnect battery cables.
g. Refill the system with appropriate Motorcraft® engine coolant.
2. Check for loose or missing grounds at static conditions.
a. Turn off all accessories. Turn ignition on but do not start engine.
b. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.
c. Voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V on all grounds OK.
d. Any one greater than 0.4 V, check and clean ground cable connections.
e. Check accessories without using the on off switch on the vehicle instrument panel, use a jumper
wire to ground.
f. Plug in engine block heater, if equipped, and test.
g. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V.
h. Unplug engine block heater, if equipped.
3. Check for loose, missing, or inadequate grounds.
a. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.
b. Crank engine but do not start.
c. Monitor voltage while cranking. less than or equal to 0.4 V OK
d. If greater than 0.4 V, ground or repair starter.
e. Start engine and run at about 2000 rpm.
f. Turn on all accessories including those customer only uses occasionally such as CB radio, cell

Heater Core: Testing and Inspection
WARNING: CARBON MONOXIDE GAS IS COLORLESS, ODORLESS AND DANGEROUS. IF IT
IS NECESSARY TO OPERATE THE ENGINE WITH THE VEHICLE IN A CLOSED AREA SUCH
AS A GARAGE, ALWAYS USE AN EXHAUST COLLECTOR TO VENT THE EXHAUST GASES
OUTSIDE THE CLOSED AREA. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT
IN PERSONAL INJURY.
1. Inspect for evidence of coolant leakage at the heater water hose to heater core attachments. A
coolant leak in the heater water hose could follow
the heater core tube to the heater core and appear as a leak in the heater core.
NOTE: Testing of returned heater cores reveals that a large percentage of heater cores are good
and did not require installation of a new heater core. If a heater core leak is suspected, the heater
core must be tested by following the Plugged Heater Core Component Test before the Heater Core
Pressure Test. Carry out a system inspection by checking the heater system thoroughly.
CAUTION: Spring-type clamps are installed as original equipment. Installation and overtightening
of non-specification clamps can cause leakage at the heater water hose connection and damage
the heater core.
2. Check the integrity of the heater water hose clamps.
Heater Core - Plugged
WARNING: THE HEATER CORE INLET HOSE WILL BECOME TOO HOT TO HANDLE IF THE
SYSTEM IS WORKING CORRECTLY.
1. Check to see that the engine coolant is at the correct level. 2. Start the engine and turn on the
heater 3. When the engine coolant reaches operating temperature, feel the heater core outlet hose
to see if it is hot.
If it is not hot: ^
the heater core may have an air pocket.
^ the heater core may be plugged, or
^ the thermostat is not working correctly.
Heater Core - Pressure Test Use the radiator/heater core pressure tester to carry out the pressure
test.
1. Drain the coolant from the cooling system.
NOTE: Due to space limitations, a bench test may be necessary for pressure testing.
2. Disconnect the heater water hoses from the heater core. 3. Install a short piece of heater water
hose, approximately 101 mm (4 inches) long on each heater core tube.
4. Fill the heater core and heater water hoses with water and install plug BT-7422-B and adapter
BT-7422-A from the radiator/heater core
pressure tester in the heater water hose ends. Secure the heater water hoses, plug and adapter
with hose clamps.
5. Attach the pump and gauge assembly from the radiator/heater core pressure tester to the
adapter. 6. Close the bleed valve at the base of the gauge. Pump 241 kPa (35 psi) of air pressure
into the heater core. 7. Observe the pressure gauge for a minimum of three minutes. 8. If the
pressure drops, check the heater water hose connections to the core tubes for leaks. If the heater
water hoses do not leak, remove the
heater core from the vehicle and carry out the bench test.
Heater Core - Bench Test 1. Remove the heater core from the vehicle. 2. Drain all of the coolant
from the heater core. 3. Connect the 101 mm (4 inch) test heater water hoses with plug and

heater core and install a restrictor in the heater hose closest to the engine block, reference
Workshop Manual, Section 412.
b. If leaks are found in the body of the heater core itself, and does not appear to be the result of
physical damage like contact or puncture, check the coolant for possible electrolysis.
Testing For Electrolysis
Check for voltage in the cooling system by touching the negative contact of a voltmeter to the
battery ground or a known good ground and suspend the positive lead in the coolant, making sure
it is in contact with the coolant but not touching any metal part of the radiator or cooling system.
Both AC and DC voltages must be checked. Vehicles normally have DC voltages; however, a faulty
engine block heater or faulty diode in the alternator can produce AC voltages. It is understood that
coolant is lost due to heater core failure but try to obtain a voltage reading on the old coolant in the
engine block before addition to or replacement of. To keep more coolant from exiting the heater
core clamp off heater core lines and measure coolant in the engine block. Try not to dilute the
original coolant with new coolant during testing if possible.
1. Determine whether coolant condition is acceptable.
a. Remove both cables from the battery and ensure they do not contact each other or the vehicle.
b. Touch negative lead of voltmeter to engine ground and positive lead in the coolant.
NOTE
POSITIVE TEST PROBE IS IN THE COOLANT FOR TESTING.
c. Check the voltage in the cooling system. If less than or equal to 0.4 volts (V) OK, reconnect
battery cables and proceed to Step 2.
d. If greater than 0.4 V, flush cooling system thoroughly.
e. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V.
f. Reconnect battery cables.
g. Refill the system with appropriate Motorcraft® engine coolant.
2. Check for loose or missing grounds at static conditions.
a. Turn off all accessories. Turn ignition on but do not start engine.
b. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.
c. Voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V on all grounds OK.
d. Any one greater than 0.4 V, check and clean ground cable connections.
e. Check accessories without using the on off switch on the vehicle instrument panel, use a jumper
wire to ground.
f. Plug in engine block heater, if equipped, and test.
g. Recheck voltage less than or equal to 0.4 V.
h. Unplug engine block heater, if equipped.
3. Check for loose, missing, or inadequate grounds.
a. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.
b. Crank engine but do not start.
c. Monitor voltage while cranking. less than or equal to 0.4 V OK
d. If greater than 0.4 V, ground or repair starter.
e. Start engine and run at about 2000 rpm.
f. Turn on all accessories including those customer only uses occasionally such as CB radio, cell
phone, etc.
g. Test with ground probe to battery ground, engine ground, and vehicle ground sequentially.

Environmental Impact Information
Refrigerant: Environmental Impact Information
The Ozone Layer A thin layer of ozone molecules, located 10 to 30 miles above the earth, form a
protective cover by absorbing a portion of the ultraviolet (UV) radiation emitted from the Sun.
Ozone Depletion Scientific research performed over the past 15 years links the release of
chlorofluorocarbons (CFC)s, also know by the trade name Freon) into the atmosphere to ozone
depletion. When CFCs are released into the atmosphere, they eventually reach the ozone layer
located in the stratosphere where they react with and destroy ozone molecules.
Harmful Effects Ozone depletion and the corresponding increase in UV radiation has been shown
to lead to higher incidents of cancer as well as global warming. When viewed from a global
perspective, ozone depletion holds an enormous potential for damage.
Upper Level Vs. Ground Level Ozone Confusion often arises when we hear about the necessity of
the ozone layer and ground level ozone. The ozone layer existing high above the earth is beneficial
but the same compound, when located at ground level, is harmful to humans, animals, crops and
vegetation.
Ground level ozone is a component of smog and forms when hydrocarbons (HC) react with
nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the presence of sunlight and heat.
Montreal Protocol In response to the growing body of evidence demonstrating the detrimental
effects of (CFC)s, 24 countries and the European community met in Montreal, Canada, in 1987 to
establish standards for the control of (CFC)s. Since that time, a total of 132 countries have become
signatories to this agreement leading to an end of production of R12 in December, 1995, in all
developed countries.
As established by the Montreal Protocol, R12 production in developed countries has ceased.
Clean Air Act The United States Congress, acting in response to the Montreal Protocol, banned
production of (CFC)s by the year 2000. Congress also amended the Clean Air Act in an effort to
control both the production and use of (CFC)s for refrigerant applications including mobile vehicle
air conditioning systems.

Refrigerant: Vehicle Damage Warnings
CAUTION:
^ Good ventilation is necessary in the area where electronic A/C leak testing is to be carried out. If
the surrounding air is contaminated with refrigerant gas, the leak detector will indicate this gas all
the time. Odors from other chemicals such as antifreeze, diesel fuel, disc brake cleaner, or other
cleaning solvents can cause the same problem. A fan, even in a well-ventilated area, is very helpful
in removing small traces of contamination from the air that might affect the leak detector.
^ If contaminated refrigerant is detected, DO NOT recover the refrigerant into your
recovery/recycling equipment.

Refrigerant Pressure Sensor / Switch: Description and Operation
A/C Cycling Switch
A/C Cycling Switch
The A/C cycling switch is mounted on a Schrader valve-type fitting on the top of the suction
accumulator. ^
A valve depressor, located inside the threaded end of the A/C cycling switch, presses in on the
Schrader valve stem.
^ This allows the suction pressure inside the suction accumulator to control the operation of the
A/C cycling switch.
^ The electrical switch contacts open when the suction pressure drops to 152-193 kPa (22-28 psi).
^ The contacts close when the suction pressure rises to 276-324 kPa (40-47 psi).
^ When the A/C cycling switch contacts close, the signal to energize the A/C clutch is sent to the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) which energizes the A/C relay and supplies B+ voltage to the
A/C clutch field coil.
^ When the A/C cycling switch contacts open, the A/C clutch field coil is deenergized and
compressor operation stops.
^ The A/C cycling switch will control the A/C evaporator core pressure at a point where the plate/fin
surface temperature will be maintained slightly above freezing.
^ This prevents icing of the A/C evaporator core and blockage of airflow.
^ It is not necessary to discharge the refrigerant system to remove the A/C cycling switch.
A/C Pressure Cut-Off Switch
The A/C pressure cut-off switch is used to interrupt A/C compressor operation in the event of high
system discharge pressures. ^
The A/C pressure cut-off switch is mounted on a Schrader valve-type fitting on the high pressure
side of the condenser to evaporator line.
^ A valve depressor, located inside the threaded end of the A/C pressure cut-off switch, is used to
monitor the compressor discharge pressure.
^ It is not necessary to discharge the refrigerant system to remove the A/C pressure cut-off switch.
^ The A/C pressure cut-off switch has two sets of contacts. One electrical contact is normally
closed.
^ When the compressor discharge pressure rises to approximately 3,103 kPa (450 psi), the switch
contacts open, disengaging the A/C compressor.
^ When the pressure drops to approximately 1,724 kPa (250 psi), the contacts close to allow
operation of the A/C compressor.
The switch contains a second set of electrical contacts used for high-speed fan control. ^
When the compressor discharge pressure reaches approximately 2,241 kPa (325 psi), these
contacts close and engage the high-speed fan control.
^ When the pressure drops to approximately 1,896 kPa (275 psi), the contacts again open and the
high speed fan control is disengaged.

A/C Evaporator Temperature (ACET) Sensor Voltage And Resistance Chart, Part 1
A/C Evaporator Temperature (ACET) Sensor Voltage And Resistance Chart, Part 2
The Air Conditioning Evaporative Temperature (ACET) sensor senses evaporator air discharge
temperature. The ACET sensor is a thermistor device in which resistance changes with
temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and
increases as the temperature decreases. The PCM sources a low current 5 volts on the ACET
circuit. With SIG RTN also connected to the ACET sensor, the varying resistance affects the
voltage drop across the sensor terminals. As A/C evaporator air temperature changes, the varying
resistance of the ACET sensor changes the voltage the PCM detects.
The ACET sensor is used to more accurately control A/C clutch cycling, improving defrost/demist
performance, reduce A/C clutch cycling, etc.

Depowering and Repowering Procedure
Depowering Procedure
WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag supplemental restraint system
(SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event
of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: Never probe the connectors on the air bag module. Doing so can result in air bag
deployment, which can result in personal injury.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices.
NOTE: If a seat equipped with a seat mounted side air bag and/or a safety belt pretensioner (if
equipped) system is being serviced, the supplemental restraint system (SRS) must be depowered.
NOTE: The air bag warning lamp illuminates when the RCM fuse is removed and the ignition
switch is ON. This is normal operation and does not indicate a supplemental restraint system
(SRS) fault.
NOTE: The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the
customer.
1. Turn all vehicle accessories OFF.
2. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
3. At the central junction box (CJB), located below the LH side of the instrument panel, remove the
cover and the restraints control module (RCM)
fuse F2.5 (5A) and F2.7 (10A) from the CJB.
4. Turn the ignition ON and visually monitor the air bag indicator for at least 30 seconds. The air
bag indicator will remain lit continuously (no
flashing) if the correct RCM fuse has been removed. If the air bag indicator does not remain lit
continuously, remove the correct RCM fuse before proceeding.
5. Turn the ignition OFF.
6. WARNING: To avoid accidental deployment and possible personal injury, the backup power
supply must be depleted before repairing or
replacing any front or side air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) components and before
servicing, replacing, adjusting or striking components near the front or side air bag sensors, such
as doors, instrument panel, console, door latches, strikers, seats and hood latches. The side
impact sensors (if equipped) are located at or near the base of the B-pillars.
To deplete the backup power supply energy, disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least
one minute. Be sure to disconnect auxiliary batteries and power supplies (if equipped).
Disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least one minute.
Repowering Procedure
1. WARNING: The restraint system diagnostic tool is for restraint system service only. Remove
from vehicle prior to road use. Failure to
remove could result in injury and possible violation of vehicle safety standards.
Make sure all restraint system diagnostic tool(s) that may have been installed during the repair
have been removed from the vehicle and all SRS components are connected.
2. Turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON.
3. Install RCM fuses F2.5 (5A) and F2.7 (10A) to the CJB and close the cover.

Turn the ignition key from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the key back to ON and visually
monitor the air bag indicator with the air bag modules installed. The air bag indicator will light
continuously for approximately six seconds and then turn off. If an air bag supplemental restraint
system (SRS) fault is present, the air bag indicator will either:
- fail to light.
- remain lit continuously.
- flash.
The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been
turned from the OFF to the ON position. This is the time required for the restraints control module
(RCM) to complete the testing of the SRS. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and a SRS fault
exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator
and any SRS fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired.
Clear all continuous DTCs from the restraints control module using a scan tool.

^ remain lit continuously.
^ flash.
The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been
turned from the OFF to the RUN position. This is the time required for the Restraints Control
Module (RCM) to complete the testing of the SRS. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and an
SRS fault exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air bag
indicator will need to be repaired before diagnosis can continue.

Air Bag Control Module: Vehicle Damage Warnings
CAUTION: Electronic modules are sensitive to static electrical charges. If exposed to these
charges, damage can result.

Air Bag Control Module: Description and Operation
The Restraints Control Module (RCM) carries out the following functions:
^ signals the inflators to deploy the air bags in the event of a deployable crash
^ monitors the air bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) for faults
^ illuminates the air bag indicator if a fault is detected
^ flashes the air bag indicator to indicate the Lamp Fault Code (LFC) detected
^ communicates through the Data Link Connector (DLC) the current or historical Diagnostic
Trouble Codes (DTCs)
^ signals the instrument cluster to activate a chime if the air bag indicator is not available and
another SRS fault exists
NOTE: The safety sensor is internal to the RCM and is not serviced separately.
The RCM monitors the SRS for possible faults. If a fault is detected while the ignition switch is in
the RUN position, the RCM will flash the air bag indicator located in the instrument cluster.
When the ignition is cycled (turned off and then on), the air bag indicator will prove out by lighting
for six seconds and then off for two seconds. After the prove out, the air bag indicator will then flash
the two-digit LFC for any current SRS fault. If an SRS fault exists, the air bag indicator will flash the
LFC five times, and then remain illuminated for the rest of the key cycle. The RCM will also
communicate the current and historical DTCs through the DLC, to the scan tool. If the air bag
indicator does not function, and the system detects a fault condition, the RCM will signal the
instrument cluster to activate an audible chime. The chime is a series of five sets of five tone
bursts. If the chime is heard, the SRS and the air bag indicator require repair.
LFCs are prioritized. If two or more faults occur at the same time, the fault having the highest
priority will be displayed. After that fault has been corrected, the next highest priority fault will be
displayed.
The RCM includes a backup power supply. This feature provides sufficient backup power to deploy
the air bags in the event that the ignition circuit is damaged in a collision before the safing and air
bag sensors determine that a deployment is required. The backup power supply will deplete its
stored energy approximately one minute after the battery ground cable is disconnected.

Description and Operation
Safing Sensor: Description and Operation
The Restraints Control Module (RCM) carries out the following functions:
^ signals the inflators to deploy the air bags in the event of a deployable crash
^ monitors the air bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) for faults
^ illuminates the air bag indicator if a fault is detected
^ flashes the air bag indicator to indicate the Lamp Fault Code (LFC) detected
^ communicates through the Data Link Connector (DLC) the current or historical Diagnostic
Trouble Codes (DTCs)
^ signals the instrument cluster to activate a chime if the air bag indicator is not available and
another SRS fault exists
NOTE: The safety sensor is internal to the RCM and is not serviced separately.
The RCM monitors the SRS for possible faults. If a fault is detected while the ignition switch is in
the RUN position, the RCM will flash the air bag indicator located in the instrument cluster.
When the ignition is cycled (turned off and then on), the air bag indicator will prove out by lighting
for six seconds and then off for two seconds. After the prove out, the air bag indicator will then flash
the two-digit LFC for any current SRS fault. If an SRS fault exists, the air bag indicator will flash the
LFC five times, and then remain illuminated for the rest of the key cycle. The RCM will also
communicate the current and historical DTCs through the DLC, to the scan tool. If the air bag
indicator does not function, and the system detects a fault condition, the RCM will signal the
instrument cluster to activate an audible chime. The chime is a series of five sets of five tone
bursts. If the chime is heard, the SRS and the air bag indicator require repair.
LFCs are prioritized. If two or more faults occur at the same time, the fault having the highest
priority will be displayed. After that fault has been corrected, the next highest priority fault will be
displayed.
The RCM includes a backup power supply. This feature provides sufficient backup power to deploy
the air bags in the event that the ignition circuit is damaged in a collision before the safing and air
bag sensors determine that a deployment is required. The backup power supply will deplete its
stored energy approximately one minute after the battery ground cable is disconnected.

Air Bag Control Module: Description and Operation
The Restraints Control Module (RCM) carries out the following functions:
^ signals the inflators to deploy the air bags in the event of a deployable crash
^ monitors the air bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) for faults
^ illuminates the air bag indicator if a fault is detected
^ flashes the air bag indicator to indicate the Lamp Fault Code (LFC) detected
^ communicates through the Data Link Connector (DLC) the current or historical Diagnostic
Trouble Codes (DTCs)
^ signals the instrument cluster to activate a chime if the air bag indicator is not available and
another SRS fault exists
NOTE: The safety sensor is internal to the RCM and is not serviced separately.
The RCM monitors the SRS for possible faults. If a fault is detected while the ignition switch is in
the RUN position, the RCM will flash the air bag indicator located in the instrument cluster.
When the ignition is cycled (turned off and then on), the air bag indicator will prove out by lighting
for six seconds and then off for two seconds. After the prove out, the air bag indicator will then flash
the two-digit LFC for any current SRS fault. If an SRS fault exists, the air bag indicator will flash the
LFC five times, and then remain illuminated for the rest of the key cycle. The RCM will also
communicate the current and historical DTCs through the DLC, to the scan tool. If the air bag
indicator does not function, and the system detects a fault condition, the RCM will signal the
instrument cluster to activate an audible chime. The chime is a series of five sets of five tone
bursts. If the chime is heard, the SRS and the air bag indicator require repair.
LFCs are prioritized. If two or more faults occur at the same time, the fault having the highest
priority will be displayed. After that fault has been corrected, the next highest priority fault will be
displayed.
The RCM includes a backup power supply. This feature provides sufficient backup power to deploy
the air bags in the event that the ignition circuit is damaged in a collision before the safing and air
bag sensors determine that a deployment is required. The backup power supply will deplete its
stored energy approximately one minute after the battery ground cable is disconnected.

Depowering and Repowering Procedure
Depowering Procedure
WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag supplemental restraint system
(SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event
of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: Never probe the connectors on the air bag module. Doing so can result in air bag
deployment, which can result in personal injury.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices.
NOTE: If a seat equipped with a seat mounted side air bag and/or a safety belt pretensioner (if
equipped) system is being serviced, the supplemental restraint system (SRS) must be depowered.
NOTE: The air bag warning lamp illuminates when the RCM fuse is removed and the ignition
switch is ON. This is normal operation and does not indicate a supplemental restraint system
(SRS) fault.
NOTE: The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the
customer.
1. Turn all vehicle accessories OFF.
2. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
3. At the central junction box (CJB), located below the LH side of the instrument panel, remove the
cover and the restraints control module (RCM)
fuse F2.5 (5A) and F2.7 (10A) from the CJB.
4. Turn the ignition ON and visually monitor the air bag indicator for at least 30 seconds. The air
bag indicator will remain lit continuously (no
flashing) if the correct RCM fuse has been removed. If the air bag indicator does not remain lit
continuously, remove the correct RCM fuse before proceeding.
5. Turn the ignition OFF.
6. WARNING: To avoid accidental deployment and possible personal injury, the backup power
supply must be depleted before repairing or
replacing any front or side air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) components and before
servicing, replacing, adjusting or striking components near the front or side air bag sensors, such
as doors, instrument panel, console, door latches, strikers, seats and hood latches. The side
impact sensors (if equipped) are located at or near the base of the B-pillars.
To deplete the backup power supply energy, disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least
one minute. Be sure to disconnect auxiliary batteries and power supplies (if equipped).
Disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least one minute.
Repowering Procedure
1. WARNING: The restraint system diagnostic tool is for restraint system service only. Remove
from vehicle prior to road use. Failure to
remove could result in injury and possible violation of vehicle safety standards.
Make sure all restraint system diagnostic tool(s) that may have been installed during the repair
have been removed from the vehicle and all SRS components are connected.
2. Turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON.
3. Install RCM fuses F2.5 (5A) and F2.7 (10A) to the CJB and close the cover.
4. WARNING: Be sure that nobody is in the vehicle and that there is nothing blocking or set in front
of any air bag module when the
battery ground cable is connected.
Connect the battery ground cable.
5. Prove out the supplemental restraint system (SRS) as follows:
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Restraint Systems > Safety Belt Systems <--> [Seat Belt Systems] > Air Bag(s) Arming and
Disarming > System Information > Service and Repair > Air Bag Disarming and Arming > Page 7229
Turn the ignition key from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the key back to ON and visually
monitor the air bag indicator with the air bag modules installed. The air bag indicator will light
continuously for approximately six seconds and then turn off. If an air bag supplemental restraint
system (SRS) fault is present, the air bag indicator will either:
- fail to light.
- remain lit continuously.
- flash.
The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been
turned from the OFF to the ON position. This is the time required for the restraints control module
(RCM) to complete the testing of the SRS. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and a SRS fault
exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator
and any SRS fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired.
Clear all continuous DTCs from the restraints control module using a scan tool.

Seat Belt: Description and Operation
Safety Belt, Lap/Shoulder - Dual Locking Mode
WARNING: REAR-FACING INFANT SEATS SHOULD NEVER BE PLACED IN THE FRONT
SEATS.
The dual locking mode retractor on the shoulder belt portion of the combination lap/shoulder safety
belt for the front outboard passenger and both rear outboard seating positions, operates in two
ways. The driver single locking mode retractor on the shoulder belt portion of the combination
lap/shoulder safety belt works only in the vehicle sensitive mode.
1. In the vehicle-sensitive (emergency locking) mode, the shoulder belt retractor allows the
occupant freedom of movement, locking tight only on
hard braking, hard cornering or impacts of approximately 8 km/h (5 mph) or more. The front and
rear outboard seat belt retractors can also be made to lock by pulling/jerking on the belt.
2. In the automatic locking mode, the shoulder belt retractor automatically locks and remains
locked when the combination lap/shoulder safety belt is
buckled and does not allow the occupant freedom of movement. This mode provides tight
lap/shoulder belt fit on the occupant and on a child safety seat.
3. When the combination lap/shoulder belt is unbuckled and allowed to retract completely, the
retractor switches to the vehicle-sensitive (emergency)
locking mode.
The automatic locking mode must be used when installing a child safety seat in the front outboard
passenger and both rear outboard passenger seating positions.

Seat Belt: Testing and Inspection
Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) - Evaluation of Lockability and Release
WARNING: AFTER ANY VEHICLE COLLISION, THE SAFETY BELT SYSTEM AT ALL
OUTBOARD SEATING POSITIONS (EXCEPT DRIVER, WHICH HAS NO "AUTOMATIC
LOCKING RETRACTOR" FEATURE) MUST BE CHECKED BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN TO
VERIFY THAT THE "AUTOMATIC LOCKING RETRACTOR" FEATURE FOR CHILD SEATS IS
STILL FUNCTIONING PROPERLY, IN ADDITION TO OTHER CHECKS FOR PROPER SAFETY
BELT SYSTEM FUNCTION. A BELT AND RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED IF
THE SAFETY BELT ASSEMBLY'S "AUTOMATIC LOCKING RETRACTOR" FEATURE, OR ANY
OTHER SAFETY BELT FUNCTION, IS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY WHEN CHECKED
ACCORDING TO THE PROCEDURES. FAILURE TO REPLACE THE BELT AND RETRACTOR
ASSEMBLY COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY IN COLLISIONS.
1. Extend the safety belt to latch the tongue into the buckle across an empty seat without slack in
the safety belt, with the seat in the full down and
rear most position, seat back in an upright position, and if applicable, the D-ring adjusted in the full
down position.
2. Pull the shoulder belt to full extension to engage the retractor's Automatic Locking Retractor
(ALR) feature. Then allow the belt to retract freely in
the ALR mode, and let the retractor force set the proper belt tightness.
3. Pull on the shoulder belt to check that the belt has remained in the ALR mode. If the belt is not
locked, install a new belt and retractor assembly.
The safety belt should remain locked in the ALR mode across an empty seat.
4. To verify that the safety belt still automatically disengages from the ALR mode properly, with the
D-ring adjusted to the full up position, if
applicable, unlatch the safety belt tongue from the buckle and allow the safety belt to retract to its
stowed position. Pull on the shoulder belt to verify that the retractor assembly has converted
automatically out of the ALR mode. If the belt remains locked in the stowed position, a new belt and
retractor assembly must be installed. The safety belt should extract freely.

Seat Belt Buckle: Description and Operation
The driver and front outboard passenger safety belt buckle and pretensioner are secured to the
front seat cushion frame assembly. This allows the front safety belt buckle end to move with the
front seat.
The belt and buckle assembly pretensioner is a pyrotechnic device that removes excess webbing
from the safety belt system. The belt and buckle assembly pretensioner uses the same crash
sensor system as the air bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). When the belt and buckle
assembly pretensioner deploys, the buckle moves downward, pulling excess webbing from the lap
and shoulder safety belts.
If the safety belt buckle and pretensioner assembly is deployed, a new assembly must be installed.

Seat Belt Retractor: Description and Operation
WARNING: REAR-FACING INFANT SEATS SHOULD NEVER BE PLACED IN THE FRONT
SEATS.
The dual locking mode retractor on the shoulder belt portion of the combination lap/shoulder safety
belt for the front outboard passenger and both rear outboard seating positions, operates in two
ways. The driver single locking mode retractor on the shoulder belt portion of the combination
lap/shoulder safety belt works only in the vehicle sensitive mode.
1. In the vehicle-sensitive (emergency locking) mode, the shoulder belt retractor allows the
occupant freedom of movement, locking tight only on
hard braking, hard cornering or impacts of approximately 8 km/h (5 mph) or more. The front and
rear outboard seat belt retractors can also be made to lock by pulling/jerking on the belt.
2. In the automatic locking mode, the shoulder belt retractor automatically locks and remains
locked when the combination lap/shoulder safety belt is
buckled and does not allow the occupant freedom of movement. This mode provides tight
lap/shoulder belt fit on the occupant and on a child safety seat.
3. When the combination lap/shoulder belt is unbuckled and allowed to retract completely, the
retractor switches to the vehicle-sensitive (emergency)
locking mode.
The automatic locking mode must be used when installing a child safety seat in the front outboard
passenger and both rear outboard passenger seating positions.

Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) - Evaluation of Lockability and Release
WARNING: AFTER ANY VEHICLE COLLISION, THE SAFETY BELT SYSTEM AT ALL
OUTBOARD SEATING POSITIONS (EXCEPT DRIVER, WHICH HAS NO "AUTOMATIC
LOCKING RETRACTOR" FEATURE) MUST BE CHECKED BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN TO
VERIFY THAT THE "AUTOMATIC LOCKING RETRACTOR" FEATURE FOR CHILD SEATS IS
STILL FUNCTIONING PROPERLY, IN ADDITION TO OTHER CHECKS FOR PROPER SAFETY
BELT SYSTEM FUNCTION. A BELT AND RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED IF
THE SAFETY BELT ASSEMBLY'S "AUTOMATIC LOCKING RETRACTOR" FEATURE, OR ANY
OTHER SAFETY BELT FUNCTION, IS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY WHEN CHECKED
ACCORDING TO THE PROCEDURES. FAILURE TO REPLACE THE BELT AND RETRACTOR
ASSEMBLY COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY IN COLLISIONS.
1. Extend the safety belt to latch the tongue into the buckle across an empty seat without slack in
the safety belt, with the seat in the full down and
rear most position, seat back in an upright position, and if applicable, the D-ring adjusted in the full
down position.
2. Pull the shoulder belt to full extension to engage the retractor's Automatic Locking Retractor
(ALR) feature. Then allow the belt to retract freely in
the ALR mode, and let the retractor force set the proper belt tightness.
3. Pull on the shoulder belt to check that the belt has remained in the ALR mode. If the belt is not
locked, install a new belt and retractor assembly.
The safety belt should remain locked in the ALR mode across an empty seat.
4. To verify that the safety belt still automatically disengages from the ALR mode properly, with the
D-ring adjusted to the full up position, if
applicable, unlatch the safety belt tongue from the buckle and allow the safety belt to retract to its
stowed position. Pull on the shoulder belt to verify that the retractor assembly has converted
automatically out of the ALR mode. If the belt remains locked in the stowed position, a new belt and
retractor assembly must be installed. The safety belt should extract freely.

Seat Belt Tensioner: Description and Operation Occupant Restraints - Active
The driver and front outboard passenger safety belt buckle and pretensioner are secured to the
front seat cushion frame assembly. This allows the front safety belt buckle end to move with the
front seat.
The belt and buckle assembly pretensioner is a pyrotechnic device that removes excess webbing
from the safety belt system. The belt and buckle assembly pretensioner uses the same crash
sensor system as the air bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). When the belt and buckle
assembly pretensioner deploys, the buckle moves downward, pulling excess webbing from the lap
and shoulder safety belts.
If the safety belt buckle and pretensioner assembly is deployed, a new assembly must be installed.

Component Information > Description and Operation
Safing Sensor: Description and Operation
The Restraints Control Module (RCM) carries out the following functions:
^ signals the inflators to deploy the air bags in the event of a deployable crash
^ monitors the air bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) for faults
^ illuminates the air bag indicator if a fault is detected
^ flashes the air bag indicator to indicate the Lamp Fault Code (LFC) detected
^ communicates through the Data Link Connector (DLC) the current or historical Diagnostic
Trouble Codes (DTCs)
^ signals the instrument cluster to activate a chime if the air bag indicator is not available and
another SRS fault exists
NOTE: The safety sensor is internal to the RCM and is not serviced separately.
The RCM monitors the SRS for possible faults. If a fault is detected while the ignition switch is in
the RUN position, the RCM will flash the air bag indicator located in the instrument cluster.
When the ignition is cycled (turned off and then on), the air bag indicator will prove out by lighting
for six seconds and then off for two seconds. After the prove out, the air bag indicator will then flash
the two-digit LFC for any current SRS fault. If an SRS fault exists, the air bag indicator will flash the
LFC five times, and then remain illuminated for the rest of the key cycle. The RCM will also
communicate the current and historical DTCs through the DLC, to the scan tool. If the air bag
indicator does not function, and the system detects a fault condition, the RCM will signal the
instrument cluster to activate an audible chime. The chime is a series of five sets of five tone
bursts. If the chime is heard, the SRS and the air bag indicator require repair.
LFCs are prioritized. If two or more faults occur at the same time, the fault having the highest
priority will be displayed. After that fault has been corrected, the next highest priority fault will be
displayed.
The RCM includes a backup power supply. This feature provides sufficient backup power to deploy
the air bags in the event that the ignition circuit is damaged in a collision before the safing and air
bag sensors determine that a deployment is required. The backup power supply will deplete its
stored energy approximately one minute after the battery ground cable is disconnected.

ISSUE Some vehicles may experience a concern with the keyless entry keypad. In order to
properly diagnose the concern with the keyless entry keypad, it is important to identify whether the
keypad is a factory installed style (wired) or a Genuine Ford Accessory (GFA) radio frequency (RF)
style keypad.
ACTION Use the following Service Procedure to identify GFA RF keypads and provide diagnostic
service tips.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
IDENTIFICATION:
1. Production installed keyless entry keypads are mounted flush with the surface of the vehicle and
are wired directly to the module controlling the vehicle's keyless entry system. This style keypad
can be diagnosed using the appropriate Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 501-14.
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Accessories and Optional Equipment > Antitheft and Alarm Systems > Keyless Entry > Keyless
Entry Key-Pad > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Keyless Entry - Keypad Diagnostics > Page 7462
2. Dealer installed GFA RF keypads are adhesive backed and protrude approximately 1/2" (13
mm) from the surface of the vehicle and there are no specific diagnostics available in the WSM
(Figure 1).
NOTE
THIS RF KEYPAD WAS ALSO US[D IN PRODUCTION ON 2004 F-SUPER DUTY VEHICLES
BUILT PRIOR TO 12/3/2003. REFER TO WSM, SECTION 501-14 FOR RF KEYPAD
DIAGNOSTICS FOR THESE VEHICLES.
GENUINE FORD ACCESSORY KEYPAD DIAGNOSTIC TIPS
1. The keypad operates similarly to a remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter and is programmed
using a similar procedure.
Although the RF keypad is not specifically addressed in the WSM, the RKE transmitter
programming portion of the WSM, Section 501-14 can be used as a guide
NOTE
THE 7-8 AND 9-0 BUTTONS ON THE KEYPAD MUST BE PRESSED SIMULTANEOUSLY
DURING THE PROCEDURE IN ORDER FOR THE KEYPAD TO BE RECOGNIZED AS AN
ADDITIONAL REMOTE TRANSMITTER.
Since the GFA RF keypad is essentially another RKE transmitter, the transmitter diagnostic
pinpoint tests in the vehicle's WSM can also be referenced even though the buttons serving the
lock / unlock functions will differ
2. The GFA RF keypad is serviced as an assembly. The internal battery cannot be replaced
separately.
3. If the master code or owner selectable code is lost or forgotten, the GFA RF keypad must be
replaced. These codes are not stored in any vehicle module (with the exception of 2004 F-Super
Duty vehicles produced prior to 12/3/2003).
4. The GFA RF keypad and all RKE transmitters (the number of transmitters allowable will vary by
vehicle) must be reprogrammed together anytime the keypad is replaced, an RKE transmitter is
replaced, or the module controlling the keyless entry system on the vehicle (GEM/SJB/VSM/DDM
etc.) is replaced.
NOTE
THERE IS AN EXCEPTION TO TIP 4 FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH INTEGRATED
KEYHEAD TRANSMITTERS (IKTs) (FUSION/MILAN/ZEPHYR). THE GFA RF KEYPADS FOR
VEHICLES WITH IKTs MUST BE PROGRAMMED INDEPENDENTLY FROM THE IKTs. TURN
THE IGNITION FROM "OFF" TO "RUN" 8 TIMES WITHIN 10 SECONDS, WITH THE 8TH TIME
ENDING IN "RUN". THE DOOR LOCKS WILL CYCLE TO CONFIRM ENTERING
PROGRAMMING MODE. PRESS THE 7-8 AND 9-0 BUTTON ON THE KEYPAD
SIMULTANEOUSLY TO SEND A LOCK SIGNAL. TURN IGNITION TO OFF. THE LOCKS WILL
CYCLE AGAIN TO INDICATE THE END OF THE PROGRAMMING MODE.
5. The keypad will normally illuminate for 5 seconds after one or more buttons are pressed, and the
illumination will immediately turn off if the 7-8 and 9-0 buttons are pressed simultaneously (lock all
doors). The keypad contains an optical sensor and will not illuminate under bright lighting
conditions. The keypad may only illuminate briefly in colder temperatures in order to maximize the
battery power available to transmit a lock/unlock signal. The temperature at which this occurs will
vary depending upon the keypad battery age and condition. Both of these conditions are a normal
function of the Power Save Mode and do not indicate a need to replace the keypad.
6. After entering the keypad code, the system may unlock the driver's door, lock it, then unlock it
again, and the keypad will not even briefly illuminate. This is the Alert Mode and is an indication
that battery power is very low and the keypad must be replaced.
7. The keypad also contains an Anti-scan feature. If the wrong code has been entered 7 times (35
consecutive button presses) the keypad is disabled for one minute and the keypad lamp will flash
during this time.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Module] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 7474
Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse/Locations and Relay/Locations contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses and
relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams show the current feed circuit. The current path is shown
from the battery to the ignition switch and to all fuses. It also shows the circuits protected by each
fuse. The circuit is traced from the fuse to the component. All details (wires, splices, connectors)
between the fuse and the first component are shown.
Ground Distribution

Ford Workshop Manuals > Accessories and Optional Equipment > Multifunction Electronic Control Modules <--> [General
Module] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 7476
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contain the diagrams that show the complete details for
each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
WARNINGS
^ Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
^ Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires being under a vehicle.
^ Be sure that the Ignition Switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the
procedure.

Multifunction Electronic Control Modules: Description and Operation Principles of Operation (How
Does It Work?)
The Generic Electronic Module (GEM) constantly monitors its subsystems for concerns. If a
concern is found in one of the subsystems, the GEM will record the concern in the form of a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).
The ignition switch position is very important to the GEM function. Erratic or unexpected GEM
function can often be traced to problems with these GEM inputs.
The GEM controls a variety of systems:
^ interval rear window wiper
^ battery saver
^ illuminated entry
^ headlamp control
^ interior lamp control
^ power door locks
^ Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
^ accessory delay

Multifunction Electronic Control Modules: Diagram Information and Instructions
Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 7557
Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse/Locations and Relay/Locations contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses and
relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams show the current feed circuit. The current path is shown
from the battery to the ignition switch and to all fuses. It also shows the circuits protected by each
fuse. The circuit is traced from the fuse to the component. All details (wires, splices, connectors)
between the fuse and the first component are shown.
Ground Distribution

Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contain the diagrams that show the complete details for
each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse/Locations and Relay/Locations contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses and
relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams show the current feed circuit. The current path is shown
from the battery to the ignition switch and to all fuses. It also shows the circuits protected by each
fuse. The circuit is traced from the fuse to the component. All details (wires, splices, connectors)
between the fuse and the first component are shown.
Ground Distribution

Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contain the diagrams that show the complete details for
each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
WARNINGS
^ Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
^ Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires being under a vehicle.
^ Be sure that the Ignition Switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the
procedure.
^ Set the parking brake when working on any vehicle. An automatic transmission should be in
PARK. A manual transmission should be in NEUTRAL.
^ Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area to avoid danger of carbon monoxide.
^ Keep away from moving parts, especially the fan and belts, when the engine is running.
^ To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust
manifold, tailpipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery cell. An explosion could occur.
^ Do not smoke when working on a vehicle.
^ To avoid injury always remove rings, watches, loose hanging jewelry and avoid wearing loose
clothing.

Trailer Connector: Diagram Information and Instructions
Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse/Locations and Relay/Locations contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses and
relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams show the current feed circuit. The current path is shown
from the battery to the ignition switch and to all fuses. It also shows the circuits protected by each
fuse. The circuit is traced from the fuse to the component. All details (wires, splices, connectors)
between the fuse and the first component are shown.
Ground Distribution

Ford Workshop Manuals > Accessories and Optional Equipment > Trailer Connector > Component Information > Diagrams
> Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 7665
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contain the diagrams that show the complete details for
each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
WARNINGS
^ Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
^ Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires being under a vehicle.
^ Be sure that the Ignition Switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the
procedure.
^ Set the parking brake when working on any vehicle. An automatic transmission should be in
PARK. A manual transmission should be in NEUTRAL.
^ Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area to avoid danger of carbon monoxide.
^ Keep away from moving parts, especially the fan and belts, when the engine is running.
^ To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust
manifold, tailpipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery cell. An explosion could occur.
^ Do not smoke when working on a vehicle.
^ To avoid injury always remove rings, watches, loose hanging jewelry and avoid wearing loose
clothing.

Trailer Connector: Diagnostic Aids
Troubleshooting wiring harness and connector hidden concerns
The illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation in each illustration.
NOTE: Several components, such as the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), utilize gold plated
terminals in their connections to the wiring harness. If those terminals need to be replaced, they
must be replaced with a gold plated terminal.

fuse F2.5 (5A) and F2.7 (10A) from the CJB.
4. Turn the ignition ON and visually monitor the air bag indicator for at least 30 seconds. The air
bag indicator will remain lit continuously (no
flashing) if the correct RCM fuse has been removed. If the air bag indicator does not remain lit
continuously, remove the correct RCM fuse before proceeding.
5. Turn the ignition OFF.
6. WARNING: To avoid accidental deployment and possible personal injury, the backup power
supply must be depleted before repairing or
replacing any front or side air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) components and before
servicing, replacing, adjusting or striking components near the front or side air bag sensors, such
as doors, instrument panel, console, door latches, strikers, seats and hood latches. The side
impact sensors (if equipped) are located at or near the base of the B-pillars.
To deplete the backup power supply energy, disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least
one minute. Be sure to disconnect auxiliary batteries and power supplies (if equipped).
Disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least one minute.
Repowering Procedure
1. WARNING: The restraint system diagnostic tool is for restraint system service only. Remove
from vehicle prior to road use. Failure to
remove could result in injury and possible violation of vehicle safety standards.
Make sure all restraint system diagnostic tool(s) that may have been installed during the repair
have been removed from the vehicle and all SRS components are connected.
2. Turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON.
3. Install RCM fuses F2.5 (5A) and F2.7 (10A) to the CJB and close the cover.
4. WARNING: Be sure that nobody is in the vehicle and that there is nothing blocking or set in front
of any air bag module when the
battery ground cable is connected.
Connect the battery ground cable.
5. Prove out the supplemental restraint system (SRS) as follows:
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Body and Frame > Interior Moulding / Trim > Dashboard / Instrument Panel > Air Bag(s) Arming
and Disarming > System Information > Service and Repair > Air Bag Disarming and Arming > Page 8075
Turn the ignition key from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the key back to ON and visually
monitor the air bag indicator with the air bag modules installed. The air bag indicator will light
continuously for approximately six seconds and then turn off. If an air bag supplemental restraint
system (SRS) fault is present, the air bag indicator will either:
- fail to light.
- remain lit continuously.
- flash.
The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been
turned from the OFF to the ON position. This is the time required for the restraints control module
(RCM) to complete the testing of the SRS. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and a SRS fault
exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator
and any SRS fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired.
Clear all continuous DTCs from the restraints control module using a scan tool.

Turn the ignition switch from the OFF to the RUN position and visually monitor the air bag indicator
with the air bag modules or restraint system diagnostic tools installed. The air bag indicator will light
continuously for approximately six seconds and then turn off. If an air bag Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS) fault is present, the air bag indicator will either:
^ fail to light.
^ remain lit continuously.
^ flash.
The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been
turned from the OFF to the RUN position. This is the time required for the Restraints Control
Module (RCM) to complete the testing of the SRS. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and an
SRS fault exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air bag
indicator will need to be repaired before diagnosis can continue.

ISSUE Some vehicles may experience a concern with the keyless entry keypad. In order to
properly diagnose the concern with the keyless entry keypad, it is important to identify whether the
keypad is a factory installed style (wired) or a Genuine Ford Accessory (GFA) radio frequency (RF)
style keypad.
ACTION Use the following Service Procedure to identify GFA RF keypads and provide diagnostic
service tips.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
IDENTIFICATION:
1. Production installed keyless entry keypads are mounted flush with the surface of the vehicle and
are wired directly to the module controlling the vehicle's keyless entry system. This style keypad
can be diagnosed using the appropriate Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 501-14.
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Body and Frame > Locks > Keyless Entry > Keyless Entry Key-Pad > Component Information >
Technical Service Bulletins > Keyless Entry - Keypad Diagnostics > Page 8128
2. Dealer installed GFA RF keypads are adhesive backed and protrude approximately 1/2" (13
mm) from the surface of the vehicle and there are no specific diagnostics available in the WSM
(Figure 1).
NOTE
THIS RF KEYPAD WAS ALSO US[D IN PRODUCTION ON 2004 F-SUPER DUTY VEHICLES
BUILT PRIOR TO 12/3/2003. REFER TO WSM, SECTION 501-14 FOR RF KEYPAD
DIAGNOSTICS FOR THESE VEHICLES.
GENUINE FORD ACCESSORY KEYPAD DIAGNOSTIC TIPS
1. The keypad operates similarly to a remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter and is programmed
using a similar procedure.
Although the RF keypad is not specifically addressed in the WSM, the RKE transmitter
programming portion of the WSM, Section 501-14 can be used as a guide
NOTE
THE 7-8 AND 9-0 BUTTONS ON THE KEYPAD MUST BE PRESSED SIMULTANEOUSLY
DURING THE PROCEDURE IN ORDER FOR THE KEYPAD TO BE RECOGNIZED AS AN
ADDITIONAL REMOTE TRANSMITTER.
Since the GFA RF keypad is essentially another RKE transmitter, the transmitter diagnostic
pinpoint tests in the vehicle's WSM can also be referenced even though the buttons serving the
lock / unlock functions will differ
2. The GFA RF keypad is serviced as an assembly. The internal battery cannot be replaced
separately.
3. If the master code or owner selectable code is lost or forgotten, the GFA RF keypad must be
replaced. These codes are not stored in any vehicle module (with the exception of 2004 F-Super
Duty vehicles produced prior to 12/3/2003).
4. The GFA RF keypad and all RKE transmitters (the number of transmitters allowable will vary by
vehicle) must be reprogrammed together anytime the keypad is replaced, an RKE transmitter is
replaced, or the module controlling the keyless entry system on the vehicle (GEM/SJB/VSM/DDM
etc.) is replaced.
NOTE
THERE IS AN EXCEPTION TO TIP 4 FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH INTEGRATED
KEYHEAD TRANSMITTERS (IKTs) (FUSION/MILAN/ZEPHYR). THE GFA RF KEYPADS FOR
VEHICLES WITH IKTs MUST BE PROGRAMMED INDEPENDENTLY FROM THE IKTs. TURN
THE IGNITION FROM "OFF" TO "RUN" 8 TIMES WITHIN 10 SECONDS, WITH THE 8TH TIME
ENDING IN "RUN". THE DOOR LOCKS WILL CYCLE TO CONFIRM ENTERING
PROGRAMMING MODE. PRESS THE 7-8 AND 9-0 BUTTON ON THE KEYPAD
SIMULTANEOUSLY TO SEND A LOCK SIGNAL. TURN IGNITION TO OFF. THE LOCKS WILL
CYCLE AGAIN TO INDICATE THE END OF THE PROGRAMMING MODE.
5. The keypad will normally illuminate for 5 seconds after one or more buttons are pressed, and the
illumination will immediately turn off if the 7-8 and 9-0 buttons are pressed simultaneously (lock all
doors). The keypad contains an optical sensor and will not illuminate under bright lighting
conditions. The keypad may only illuminate briefly in colder temperatures in order to maximize the
battery power available to transmit a lock/unlock signal. The temperature at which this occurs will
vary depending upon the keypad battery age and condition. Both of these conditions are a normal
function of the Power Save Mode and do not indicate a need to replace the keypad.
6. After entering the keypad code, the system may unlock the driver's door, lock it, then unlock it
again, and the keypad will not even briefly illuminate. This is the Alert Mode and is an indication
that battery power is very low and the keypad must be replaced.
7. The keypad also contains an Anti-scan feature. If the wrong code has been entered 7 times (35
consecutive button presses) the keypad is disabled for one minute and the keypad lamp will flash
during this time.

ISSUE
This article is being written to clarify the proper procedures to prepare plastic fascia parts. Multiple
repair procedures for painting plastic fascia parts are being used in the field that are inconsistent
and may not provide adequate paint adhesion. Paint companies repair procedures are system
specific and do not lend themselves to generic repair procedures.
ACTION
Follow the repair information in this TSB flow chart to perform the initial steps for fascia paint repair
only. After completing the flow chart refer to paint company system recommendations for materials
and mixing instructions for the type of plastic being painted. Also listed in this TSB are some
important service tips to remember when preparing plastic parts for paint application.
SERVICE INFORMATION
For repair information, refer to flow chart Figure 1. Additional Service Tips:
- When washing plastic parts use Motorcraft Detail Wash (ZC-3-A) mixed at a ratio (1 oz. of
ZC-3-A) to 1 gallon of water.
- Use basecoat reducer for a wipe test on coated service parts.
- If the coating (adhesion promoter/primer) shrivels or lifts, remove only that layer of material by
Scotchbrite scuffing or machine sanding. Never remove material to bare plastic substrate, as this
will create more work in order to protect the substrate for application of paint.
- If the adhesion promoter or primer is intact, use a gray Scotchbrite pad and scuff the entire part to
continue preparation steps for normal paint application.
- Follow paint company recommendations for primer or basecoat application.

ISSUE
Vehicles that have small scratches, mars, dirt, and scuff marks found during pre-delivery or
reconditioning may be repaired without repainting using new Motorcraft polishing products. These
products may also be used effectively for collision damage repairs.
ACTION
Read this TSB in its entirety BEFORE beginning any repairs. Repair as outlined in the following
Service Procedures.
BACKGROUND
The OEM paint system has changed significantly the last 18 months. Previous paint systems
required a number days to be fully cured. The OEM paint system used today cures faster and is
also much harder. The hardness of the OEM system is similar to the hardness of current Refinish
paint system and as a result, a new polishing system is necessary. These products have been
tested on all Ford Motor Company OEM paint finishes and all Major Refinish paint brands. The
system has significantly better results than all other products tested for OEM and Refinish paint
systems.
NOTE THE USE OF FORD OR MOTORCRAFT BRAND PRODUCTS IS MANDATORY ON ALL
REPAIR CLAIMS PAID BY FORD UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED IN EMISSIONS, FIELD
SERVICE ACTIONS, CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAMS, TSB'S OR OTHER COMPANY
PUBLICATIONS. THE COST OF NON-FORD/MOTORCRAFT PRODUCTS USED FOR A
WARRANTY OR ESP/ESC, OR AWA REPAIR WITHOUT JUSTIFYING THEIR USE, (I.E.,
EMERGENCY REPAIR) IS NOT REIMBURSABLE. EXAMPLES OF FORD PRODUCTS ARE:
ADHESIVES, SEALERS, SOLVENTS, CLEANERS, WASHES, AND OTHER SPECIAL
PRODUCTS LISTED IN THE FORD CAR CARE PRODUCTS MANUAL.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
1. Make sure the area to be polished is clean and free of paint sealants and waxes. 2. To remove
dirt nibs, runs, or sags, sand the surface with a D.A. sander or by hand with P1500 grit sandpaper.
3. Apply the Motorcraft ZC-39-B backing pad to dual action sander. 4. Apply the Motorcraft
polishing disc (ZC-39-A kit) to the D.A. sander.
NOTE MAKE SURE THE POLISHING DISC IS CENTERED EXACTLY ON THE BACKING PAD,
OR "WILD SCRATCHES" MAY OCCUR.
5. Dampen the polishing disc with water from a spray bottle before use. 6. Damp polish the repair
area until the dirt, mar, etc. has been removed. The surface should now be semi-polished.
NOTE IF THE IMPERFECTION CANNOT BE REMOVED WITH THE POLISHING DISC, HAND
SAND WITH FINE SAND PAPER IN A STEP PROCESS (I.E. 600 GRIT, 1200 GRIT, 1500 GRIT).
THE POLISHING DISC WILL ONLY REMOVE 1500 GRIT SCRATCHES AND HIGHER.
7. To remove the sand scratches and also remove swirl marks, install a foam-polishing pad onto a
buffer. 8. Apply a small amount of the Motorcraft Finish Enhancement Compound on the foam pad
for the first time of pad use. Do not use a wool pad with
this product.
9. Move the pad around in a 2 foot area to spread out the material, then start up the buffer.
Recommended speed is 1750 rpm. Apply medium
pressure and let the polisher do the work. Verify the imperfection has been removed. If not, repeat
Step 9 until complete.
10. Wipe the repair area with a detailing cloth to complete the
repair.

WILL REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT.
^ AFTER DEPLOYMENT, THE AIR BAG SURFACE CAN CONTAIN DEPOSITS OF SODIUM
HYDROXIDE, A PRODUCT OF THE GAS GENERANT COMBUSTION THAT IS IRRITATING TO
THE SKIN. WASH YOUR HANDS WITH SOAP AND WATER AFTERWARD.
^ NEVER PROBE THE CONNECTORS ON THE AIR BAG MODULE. DOING SO CAN RESULT
IN AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, WHICH CAN RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY.
^ VEHICLE SENSOR ORIENTATION IS CRITICAL FOR PROPER SYSTEM OPERATION. IF A
VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH AN AIR BAG SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) IS
INVOLVED IN A COLLISION, INSPECT THE SENSOR MOUNTING BRACKET AND WIRING
PIGTAIL FOR DEFORMATION. REPLACE AND PROPERLY POSITION THE SENSOR OR ANY
OTHER DAMAGED SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) COMPONENTS WHETHER
OR NOT THE AIR BAG IS DEPLOYED.
^ TO AVOID ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY, THE BACKUP
POWER SUPPLY MUST BE DEPLETED BEFORE REPAIRING OR REPLACING ANY FRONT
OR SIDE AIR BAG SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) COMPONENTS AND
BEFORE SERVICING, REPLACING, ADJUSTING OR STRIKING COMPONENTS NEAR THE
FRONT OR SIDE AIR BAG SENSORS, SUCH AS DOORS, INSTRUMENT PANEL, CONSOLE,
DOOR LATCHES, STRIKERS, SEATS AND HOOD LATCHES.
REFER TO THE APPROPRIATE COMPONENT OR SYSTEM TO DETERMINE LOCATION OF
THE FRONT AIR BAG SENSORS.
THE SIDE AIR BAG SENSORS ARE LOCATED AT OR NEAR THE BASE OF THE B-PILLAR.
TO DEPLETE THE BACKUP POWER SUPPLY ENERGY, DISCONNECT THE BATTERY
GROUND CABLE AND WAIT AT LEAST ONE MINUTE. BE SURE TO DISCONNECT AUXILIARY
BATTERIES AND POWER SUPPLIES (IF EQUIPPED).
^ THE RESTRAINT SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC TOOL IS FOR RESTRAINT SYSTEM SERVICE
ONLY. REMOVE FROM VEHICLE PRIOR TO ROAD USE. FAILURE TO REMOVE COULD
RESULT IN INJURY AND POSSIBLE VIOLATION OF VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARDS.
NOTE:
^ If a seat equipped with a seat mounted side air bag system is being repaired the air bag system
must be deactivated per the deactivation procedure contained in Air Bag Systems.
^ Diagnostics or repairs are not to be carried out on a side air bag system or a safety belt
pretensioner (if equipped) with the seat in the vehicle. Prior to attempting to diagnose/repair the
side air bag system or a safety belt pretensioner (if equipped) the seat must be removed from the
vehicle and the restraint system diagnostic tool must be installed in side air bag connector at the
floor connector. The restraint system diagnostic tool must be removed prior to operating the
vehicle.
^ Diagnostics may be carried out on seat systems other than the side air bag system or a safety
belt pretensioner (if equipped) (lumbar, climate controlled, heated, power seat track) with the seat
installed in the vehicle as long as the restraint system diagnostic tool is installed under the seat in
the side air bag to floor connector.
^ A repair is made by installing a new part only. If a new part is installed and the new part does not
correct the condition, install the original part and carry out the diagnostic procedure again.
^ If a side air bag deployment took place, a new seatback pad, trim cover, and side air bag module
must be installed. A new seatback frame should be installed if necessary.
1. Disconnect the battery ground cable.

Brake Switch (Cruise Control): Description and Operation
Brake Pressure Applied Brake Deactivator Switch
The Brake Pressure Applied (BPA) switch also sometimes called the brake deactivator switch for
vehicle speed control deactivation. Is a normally closed switch, witch supplies battery positive
voltage (B+) to the PCM when the brake pedal is NOT applied. When the brake pedal is
depressed, the normally closed switch will open and power is removed from the PCM.
On some applications the normally closed BPA switch along with the normally open brake pedal
position (BPP) switch are used for a brake rationality test within the PCM. The PCM misfire monitor
profile learn function can be disable if a brake switch failure occurs. If one or both brake pedal
inputs to the PCM did not change states when they were expected to a diagnostic trouble code
P1572 can be set by the PCM strategy.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators > Cigarette Lighter > Component Information
> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8438
Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse/Locations and Relay/Locations contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses and
relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams show the current feed circuit. The current path is shown
from the battery to the ignition switch and to all fuses. It also shows the circuits protected by each
fuse. The circuit is traced from the fuse to the component. All details (wires, splices, connectors)
between the fuse and the first component are shown.
Ground Distribution

Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contain the diagrams that show the complete details for
each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
WARNINGS
^ Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
^ Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires being under a vehicle.
^ Be sure that the Ignition Switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the
procedure.
^ Set the parking brake when working on any vehicle. An automatic transmission should be in
PARK. A manual transmission should be in NEUTRAL.
^ Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area to avoid danger of carbon monoxide.
^ Keep away from moving parts, especially the fan and belts, when the engine is running.
^ To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust
manifold, tailpipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery cell. An explosion could occur.
^ Do not smoke when working on a vehicle.
^ To avoid injury always remove rings, watches, loose hanging jewelry and avoid wearing loose
clothing.

Troubleshooting wiring harness and connector hidden concerns
The illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation in each illustration.
NOTE: Several components, such as the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), utilize gold plated
terminals in their connections to the wiring harness. If those terminals need to be replaced, they
must be replaced with a gold plated terminal.

Depowering and Repowering Procedure
Depowering Procedure
WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag supplemental restraint system
(SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event
of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: Never probe the connectors on the air bag module. Doing so can result in air bag
deployment, which can result in personal injury.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices.
NOTE: If a seat equipped with a seat mounted side air bag and/or a safety belt pretensioner (if
equipped) system is being serviced, the supplemental restraint system (SRS) must be depowered.
NOTE: The air bag warning lamp illuminates when the RCM fuse is removed and the ignition
switch is ON. This is normal operation and does not indicate a supplemental restraint system
(SRS) fault.
NOTE: The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the
customer.
1. Turn all vehicle accessories OFF.
2. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
3. At the central junction box (CJB), located below the LH side of the instrument panel, remove the
cover and the restraints control module (RCM)
fuse F2.5 (5A) and F2.7 (10A) from the CJB.
4. Turn the ignition ON and visually monitor the air bag indicator for at least 30 seconds. The air
bag indicator will remain lit continuously (no
flashing) if the correct RCM fuse has been removed. If the air bag indicator does not remain lit
continuously, remove the correct RCM fuse before proceeding.
5. Turn the ignition OFF.
6. WARNING: To avoid accidental deployment and possible personal injury, the backup power
supply must be depleted before repairing or
replacing any front or side air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) components and before
servicing, replacing, adjusting or striking components near the front or side air bag sensors, such
as doors, instrument panel, console, door latches, strikers, seats and hood latches. The side
impact sensors (if equipped) are located at or near the base of the B-pillars.
To deplete the backup power supply energy, disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least
one minute. Be sure to disconnect auxiliary batteries and power supplies (if equipped).
Disconnect the battery ground cable and wait at least one minute.
Repowering Procedure
1. WARNING: The restraint system diagnostic tool is for restraint system service only. Remove
from vehicle prior to road use. Failure to
remove could result in injury and possible violation of vehicle safety standards.
Make sure all restraint system diagnostic tool(s) that may have been installed during the repair
have been removed from the vehicle and all SRS components are connected.
2. Turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON.
3. Install RCM fuses F2.5 (5A) and F2.7 (10A) to the CJB and close the cover.
4. WARNING: Be sure that nobody is in the vehicle and that there is nothing blocking or set in front
of any air bag module when the

Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming: Service and Repair Prove Out Procedure
Turn the ignition switch from the OFF to the RUN position and visually monitor the air bag indicator
with the air bag modules or restraint system diagnostic tools installed. The air bag indicator will light
continuously for approximately six seconds and then turn off. If an air bag Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS) fault is present, the air bag indicator will either:
^ fail to light.
^ remain lit continuously.
^ flash.
The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been
turned from the OFF to the RUN position. This is the time required for the Restraints Control
Module (RCM) to complete the testing of the SRS. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and an
SRS fault exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air bag
indicator will need to be repaired before diagnosis can continue.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
Check Engine, Service Engine Soon Or ISO Standard Engine Symbol
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) (Figure 15) alerts the driver that the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) has detected an On Board Diagnostic (OBD) II emission-related component or
system fault. When this occurs, an OBD II Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be set.
^ The MIL is located on the instrument cluster and is labeled CHECK ENGINE, SERVICE ENGINE
SOON or ISO standard engine symbol (Figure 16).
^ Power is supplied to the MIL whenever the ignition switch is in the RUN or START position.
^ The MIL will remain on in the RUN/START mode as a bulb check during the instrument cluster
proveout for approximately 4 seconds.
^ If the MIL remains on after the bulb check: The PCM illuminates the MIL for an emission related concern and a DTC will be present.
- The instrument cluster will illuminate the MIL if the PCM does not send a control message to the
instrument cluster.
- The PCM is operating in the Hardware Limited Operation Strategy (HLOS).
- The MIL circuit is shorted to ground.
^ If the MIL remains off (during the bulb check); Bulb is damaged.
- MIL circuit is open.
^ To turn off the MIL after a repair, a reset command from the Scan Tool must be sent, or three
consecutive drive cycles must be completed without a fault.
^ For any MIL concern, go to Symptom Charts. See: Powertrain Management/Computers and
Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes/Reading
Diagnostic Trouble Codes/Performance Diagnostic Procedures/Quick Test
^ If the MIL blinks at a steady rate, a severe misfire condition could possibly exist.
^ If the MIL blinks erratically, an intermittent open B+ to the bulb or an intermittent short to ground
in the MIL circuit exist. Also, the PCM can reset while cranking if battery voltage is low.

line applications.
ISSUE
Corporate, municipal, or police fleets may have had their Ford Motor Company vehicle modified to
flash the brake lamps whenever the "police lights" or other aftermarket lights are turned on. These
added "police lights" have the potential to disable the brake shift interlock system. The brake shift
interlock feature prevents the vehicle from being shifted from park unless the brake pedal is
depressed. Disabling of the brake shift interlock feature may enable the operator to inadvertently
apply the accelerator instead of the brake pedal when shifting from Park to Drive or Reverse gears.
ACTION
As appropriate, dealers should advise owners (including corporate, municipal, and police agencies)
that any vehicle that has been modified with a connection to the brake circuit, or that electrically
interfaces with the brake lamps in that manner, should be disconnected IMMEDIATELY and the
emergency lighting system should be modified in a manner that does not interfere with normal
service operation or the brake shift interlock. In addition, if the high-mount stoplamp flashes when
the "police lights" are on, the modification does not conform with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards

ISSUE
Corporate, municipal, or police fleets may have had their Ford Motor Company vehicle modified to
flash the brake lamps whenever the "police lights" or other aftermarket lights are turned on. These
added "police lights" have the potential to disable the brake shift interlock system. The brake shift
interlock feature prevents the vehicle from being shifted from park unless the brake pedal is
depressed. Disabling of the brake shift interlock feature may enable the operator to inadvertently
apply the accelerator instead of the brake pedal when shifting from Park to Drive or Reverse gears.
ACTION
As appropriate, dealers should advise owners (including corporate, municipal, and police agencies)
that any vehicle that has been modified with a connection to the brake circuit, or that electrically
interfaces with the brake lamps in that manner, should be disconnected IMMEDIATELY and the
emergency lighting system should be modified in a manner that does not interfere with normal
service operation or the brake shift interlock. In addition, if the high-mount stoplamp flashes when
the "police lights" are on, the modification does not conform with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards

(FMVSS) 108 which requires that the high-mount stoplamp only illuminate when applying the
brakes.
Installation of warning lights should only be performed with a completely separate electrical system,
without connection to any existing vehicle wiring. Connection of aftermarket electrical equipment
into the brake lamp circuit or any other circuit which is connected to the Powertrain Control Module

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Brake Pedal Position Switch: Description and Operation Brake Pedal Position Switch
Brake Pedal Position Switch
Typical Brake Pedal Position Switch
The Brake Pedal Position (BPP) switch (Figure 21) is used by the PCM to disengage the
transmission torque converter clutch and on some applications as an input to the idle speed control
for idle quality and for vehicle speed control deactivation. On most applications the BPP switch is
hard wired to the PCM and supplies battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is
applied. On other applications the BPP switch signal is broadcast over the SCP link via another
module to be received by the PCM.
On applications where the BPP switch is hard wired to the PCM and stoplamp circuit, if all
stoplamp bulbs are burned out (open), high voltage is present at the PCM due to a pull-up resistor
in the PCM. This provides fail-safe operation in the event the circuit to the stoplamp bulbs has
failed.

Brake Pedal Position Switch: Description and Operation Brake Pressure Applied Brake Deactivator
Switch
Brake Pressure Applied Brake Deactivator Switch
The Brake Pressure Applied (BPA) switch also sometimes called the brake deactivator switch for
vehicle speed control deactivation. Is a normally closed switch, witch supplies battery positive
voltage (B+) to the PCM when the brake pedal is NOT applied. When the brake pedal is
depressed, the normally closed switch will open and power is removed from the PCM.
On some applications the normally closed BPA switch along with the normally open brake pedal
position (BPP) switch are used for a brake rationality test within the PCM. The PCM misfire monitor
profile learn function can be disable if a brake switch failure occurs. If one or both brake pedal
inputs to the PCM did not change states when they were expected to a diagnostic trouble code
P1572 can be set by the PCM strategy.

Troubleshooting wiring harness and connector hidden concerns
The illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation in each illustration.
NOTE: Several components, such as the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), utilize gold plated
terminals in their connections to the wiring harness. If those terminals need to be replaced, they
must be replaced with a gold plated terminal.

Courtesy Lamp: Description and Operation
The Generic Electronic Module (GEM) supplies voltage and ground to the interior courtesy lamps
when any of the following inputs are received:
^ any door becomes ajar
^ liftgate or liftgate glass becomes ajar
^ remote keyless entry unlock signal is received
^ a key cylinder switch is turned to UNLOCK
All interior courtesy lamps are turned off when any of the following occurs:
^ all the doors, liftgate and liftgate glass are closed
^ the ignition switch is turned to RUN
^ a key cylinder switch is turned to LOCK
^ remote keyless entry lock signal is received
The illuminated entry feature is another feature which activates the interior lamps. This feature
operates as follows:
The GEM illuminates the interior lamps at 80 percent brightness when an unlock signal is received
from a remote keyless entry transmitter, key cylinder switch, or door handle lifted when locked. If
no door ajar signal is received the GEM will time out and turn the interior lights off. The illuminated
entry feature will be canceled when any of the following conditions are met:
^ the remote transmitter lock button is pressed and the courtesy lamp control is not activated.
^ the ignition is in the RUN or START position and the interior lamp control is not activated.
Battery Saver
The GEM is equipped with a battery saver which will turn the lights off after 45 minutes of inactivity.
This feature is an internal function of the GEM software.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

Information and Instructions > Page 8757
Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse/Locations and Relay/Locations contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses and
relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams show the current feed circuit. The current path is shown
from the battery to the ignition switch and to all fuses. It also shows the circuits protected by each
fuse. The circuit is traced from the fuse to the component. All details (wires, splices, connectors)
between the fuse and the first component are shown.
Ground Distribution

Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > License Plate Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 8759
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contain the diagrams that show the complete details for
each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
WARNINGS
^ Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
^ Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires being under a vehicle.
^ Be sure that the Ignition Switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the
procedure.
^ Set the parking brake when working on any vehicle. An automatic transmission should be in
PARK. A manual transmission should be in NEUTRAL.
^ Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area to avoid danger of carbon monoxide.
^ Keep away from moving parts, especially the fan and belts, when the engine is running.
^ To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust
manifold, tailpipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery cell. An explosion could occur.
^ Do not smoke when working on a vehicle.
^ To avoid injury always remove rings, watches, loose hanging jewelry and avoid wearing loose
clothing.

Brake Pedal Position Switch: Description and Operation Brake Pedal Position Switch
Brake Pedal Position Switch
Typical Brake Pedal Position Switch
The Brake Pedal Position (BPP) switch (Figure 21) is used by the PCM to disengage the
transmission torque converter clutch and on some applications as an input to the idle speed control
for idle quality and for vehicle speed control deactivation. On most applications the BPP switch is
hard wired to the PCM and supplies battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is
applied. On other applications the BPP switch signal is broadcast over the SCP link via another
module to be received by the PCM.
On applications where the BPP switch is hard wired to the PCM and stoplamp circuit, if all
stoplamp bulbs are burned out (open), high voltage is present at the PCM due to a pull-up resistor
in the PCM. This provides fail-safe operation in the event the circuit to the stoplamp bulbs has
failed.

Brake Pedal Position Switch: Description and Operation Brake Pressure Applied Brake Deactivator
Switch
Brake Pressure Applied Brake Deactivator Switch
The Brake Pressure Applied (BPA) switch also sometimes called the brake deactivator switch for
vehicle speed control deactivation. Is a normally closed switch, witch supplies battery positive
voltage (B+) to the PCM when the brake pedal is NOT applied. When the brake pedal is
depressed, the normally closed switch will open and power is removed from the PCM.
On some applications the normally closed BPA switch along with the normally open brake pedal
position (BPP) switch are used for a brake rationality test within the PCM. The PCM misfire monitor
profile learn function can be disable if a brake switch failure occurs. If one or both brake pedal
inputs to the PCM did not change states when they were expected to a diagnostic trouble code
P1572 can be set by the PCM strategy.

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Tail Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 8906
System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Tail Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 8907
Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse/Locations and Relay/Locations contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses and
relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams show the current feed circuit. The current path is shown
from the battery to the ignition switch and to all fuses. It also shows the circuits protected by each
fuse. The circuit is traced from the fuse to the component. All details (wires, splices, connectors)
between the fuse and the first component are shown.
Ground Distribution
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Tail Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 8909
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contain the diagrams that show the complete details for
each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
WARNINGS
^ Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
^ Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires being under a vehicle.
^ Be sure that the Ignition Switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the
procedure.
^ Set the parking brake when working on any vehicle. An automatic transmission should be in
PARK. A manual transmission should be in NEUTRAL.
^ Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area to avoid danger of carbon monoxide.
^ Keep away from moving parts, especially the fan and belts, when the engine is running.
^ To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust
manifold, tailpipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery cell. An explosion could occur.
^ Do not smoke when working on a vehicle.
^ To avoid injury always remove rings, watches, loose hanging jewelry and avoid wearing loose

Troubleshooting wiring harness and connector hidden concerns
The illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical

Introduction To Ford Diagrams
Note
All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles. It is
important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

System Overview
Each major vehicle system includes a complete system overview diagram prior to each set of
diagrams. It is important to realize that this is only a high level overview of the complete system
connectivity. It includes component operational information (1), component name and base part
number (2), and basic component internals (3). It does not include specific circuit information,
connector or pin numbers, splices or grounds. That information is found on the subsequent
diagrams in the set.

and Instructions > Page 8932
Diagram 3-3
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams. A full
representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various
components is given in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the
ground connections are shown in the Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
A dashed line indicates that the splice is not shown completely. A reference is given to the diagram
where the splice appears in full.
Component Referencing (4)
Each component on a diagram has a reference to the component location view for that component
(i.e. 151-1, 151-10, etc.). These view references are located to the right of each component shown
in a diagram. The views themselves can be found at Vehicle Locations. See: Locations/Component
Locations/Component Location Views
Component Names, Notes and Base Part Numbers (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here. The base part number for a component is listed in parentheses
next to or under a component.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number (i.e. A166, A205, etc.)
located to the upper right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component
name on one of the A-Z Component Lists, a brief description of the component's location can be
found. See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse/Locations and Relay/Locations contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses and
relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams show the current feed circuit. The current path is shown
from the battery to the ignition switch and to all fuses. It also shows the circuits protected by each
fuse. The circuit is traced from the fuse to the component. All details (wires, splices, connectors)
between the fuse and the first component are shown.
Ground Distribution

Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Trailer Lamps > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 8934
Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contain the diagrams that show the complete details for
each ground connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting
several components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection
details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Component and Connector Information
Locations information that can be found at the vehicle level will help the user find where the various
items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. See: Locations
Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be found
on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
"Connector Views" show the views of the pins and/or cavities of all connectors. The pin and cavity
sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the connector
housing is indicated next to the connector number when available. The harness causal number is
located above the connector view and below the connector number. The circuit function charts are
located below each connector. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
WARNINGS
^ Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
^ Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires being under a vehicle.
^ Be sure that the Ignition Switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the
procedure.
^ Set the parking brake when working on any vehicle. An automatic transmission should be in
PARK. A manual transmission should be in NEUTRAL.
^ Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area to avoid danger of carbon monoxide.
^ Keep away from moving parts, especially the fan and belts, when the engine is running.
^ To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust
manifold, tailpipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery cell. An explosion could occur.
^ Do not smoke when working on a vehicle.
^ To avoid injury always remove rings, watches, loose hanging jewelry and avoid wearing loose
clothing.

This article supersedes TSB 04-18-9 to update vehicle applications and service procedure.
ISSUE Some vehicles may exhibit inoperative electric rear window defroster (heated back lite) grid
lines, integral antenna concerns causing radio reception issues or terminal tabs pulled from the
rear window glass.
ACTION Follow the diagnostic and repair procedures included in this article to inspect and service
rear defroster grid lines, integral antenna concerns or broken terminal tabs.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
Warrantable/Non Warrantable repairs
Warrantable grid line repairs typically can be identified by one inoperative grid line with a small
discoloration at the area of concern, approximately the size of a pinhead. Grid line(s) that are
scratched or have the silver material removed are not warrantable and should be addressed with
the customer. Replacement of backglass for grid line or bus bar tarnishing is not a warrantable
repair. Tarnishing of the silver lines or bus bars is a normal condition. Please refer to the Heated
Back Lite Damageability Job Aid for additional information and examples of defects and damage.
NOTE
THE GRID LINE MATERIAL IS NOT EMBEDDED INTO THE GLASS BUT IS BAKED TO THE
GLASS SURFACE AND CONSEQUENTLY CAN BE SCRAPED OFF. INOPERATIVE LINES MAY
APPEAR TO THE EYE TO BE UNDAMAGED DUE TO RESIDUE REMAINING ON
Ford Escape 4wd Workshop Manual (V6-182 3.0L VIN 1 SFI (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Windows and Glass > Rear Defogger > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins >
A/C/Audio - Defroster/Antenna Grid Diagnosis/Repair > Page 8989
THE GLASS AND WILL REQUIRE DIAGNOSIS WITH A VOLTMETER OR 12V TEST LAMP AS
EXPLAINED IN THIS ARTICLE.
Examples Of Non-Warrantable Grid Line Damage
^ Ice scraper damage to grid lines
^ Animal scratches on grid lines
^ Window tint film/removal of the film which damages grid lines
^ Stickers placed over grids which upon removal, removes the grid line material
^ License plate (steel type placed against the inside of back glass) which rubs on the grid line
causing damage
^ Temporary license plate (paper stuck on to the inside of the back glass) which upon removal
removes grid line material
^ Cargo or lumber rubbing against the glass which removes grid line material
^ Cellular phone antenna installation/removal which damages grid line material
NOTE
AN UNDAMAGED GRIDLINE WILL HAVE SMALL RIDGES THAT PROJECT ABOVE THE
SURFACE OF THE GLASS AND CAN EASILY BE FELT WHEN RUNNING A FINGERNAIL
ACROSS THEM.
GRIDLINES THAT HAVE BEEN "RAZOR BLADED" WILL FEEL SMOOTH WHEN A FINGERNAIL
IS DRAGGED ACROSS THE AFFECTED AREA. THERE MAY BE SOME RESIDUE LEFT ON
THE GLASS THAT APPEARS TO BE GRID MATERIAL BUT A CHECK WITH A VOLTMETER OR
12V TEST LAMP, AS EXPLAINED IN THIS ARTICLE, WILL CONFIRM AN OPEN CIRCUIT. GRID
LINE INOPERATIVE - DIAGNOSTICS
1. Reference Workshop Manual Section 501-11 and the Wiring Diagram Section 56 to verify power
and ground to the back-glass.
2. Connect a test lamp or DVOM to a good body ground.
3. Turn the ignition key to the run position and depress and release the rear defroster button to turn
the system on. THE GRID IS ENERGIZED FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES EACH TIME
THE DEFROSTER BUTTON IS PRESSED.
4. Starting from the top grid line at the center of the back-glass, touch the test lamp or DVOM +
lead to each grid line. (Use caution not to damage grid lines). The DVOM should read
approximately 1/2 of the battery voltage on each line at the center of the back-glass. If using a test
light, the bulb should be approximately the same brightness on each line from top to bottom. If the
DVOM or light indicates a high voltage or no voltage on any grid line, move along the concern grid
line with the + test lead or test lamp until the voltage changes suddenly. This is the area of
concern, use chalk to mark the area of concern and mark the outside of the glass at that same
area.
5. Repair per the Grid Line Repair Procedure.
GRID LINE REPAIR PROCEDURE
NOTE
LONG GAPS ARE ALMOST ALWAYS DUE TO DAMAGE AND ARE NOT WARRANTABLE,
HOWEVER THEY CAN BE REPAIRED. THE LONGER THE GAP THE MORE IMPORTANT IT IS
TO APPLY A MINIMUM SIX (6) COATS OF CONDUCTIVE REPAIR MATERIAL WITH THE FIVE
(5) MINUTE DRY TIME BETWEEN EACH COAT. APPLYING LESS COATS OR NOT ALLOWING
DRY TIME BETWEEN COATS WILL PRODUCE REPAIRED RESISTANCE THAT IS GREATER
THAN OEM RESISTANCE, RESULTING IN POOR DEFROST PERFORMANCE AND
EXCESSIVE LOCALIZED HEATING. REPAIRED LONG GAPS ARE GENERALLY NOT
VISUALLY PLEASING UNLESS EXTREME CARE IS TAKEN WHEN TAPING AFFECTED GRID
LINE AREAS.
NOTE
IF THE BROWN COLOR UNDER THE GRID LINE IS DAMAGED OR MISSING (THIS IS VERY
RARE), IT WILL BE NECESSARY TO APPLY BROWN ACRYLIC LACQUER TOUCH-UP PAINT
FOR COLOR MATCH. THIS PAINT MUST MEET SPECIFICATION ESR-M2P100-C AND
SHOULD BE APPLIED TO THE GLASS PRIOR TO APPLYING THE REAR WINDOW
DEFROSTER REPAIR COMPOUND.

Service inoperative grid lines on rear window glass using Motorcraft Defroster Repair PM-11 or
equivalent meeting Ford specification ESB-M4J58-A as follows:
Surface Preparation
1. Bring vehicle inside and warm it to 60° F (16° C) or above.
2. Do not use scrapers, sharp instruments, or abrasive window cleaners on the interior surface of
the rear window glass as this may cause damage to the grid lines. Clean the entire grid line service
area with Ultra Clear Spray Glass Cleaner ZC-23 or equivalent meeting Ford specification
ESR-M14P5-A to remove all dirt, wax, grease, oil or other foreign matter. It is important that the
repair area be clean and dry.
NOTE
THE REPAIR AREA HOWEVER SHOULD BE CLEANED WITH STEEL WOOL OR AN ABRASIVE
PAD SUCH AS SCOTCHBRITE TO REMOVE GRIME.
Mixing
The bottle of Rear Window Defroster Repair compound and touch-up paint (if needed) must be at
room temperature. Shake the bottle for at least one (1) minute for thorough mixing. Shake
frequently during use.
Application
1. Mark location of open grid on the outside of the back window glass (performed in diagnostics).
Place protective covering over the package tray as necessary.
2. Using "fine line tape", mask off the area directly above and below open grid line (Figure 1). It is
best to extend the tape 26 mm (1") beyond the concern area in both directions. The open should
be at the center of the mask and tape gap must be no wider than the existing grid line. Other types
of tape may be used but end results of the repair may not appear as visually acceptable due to
ease of application and tape edge finish.
3. If the brown layer of the grid is not broken or missing, apply only the silver grid repair compound
to the open grid line. Apply the correct coating in several smooth continuous strokes (allowing five
(5) minutes drying time between coats) across the open grid line area using the brush applicator in
the cap. Extend the service coating at least 6 mm (.25") on both sides of the open grid line area.
Apply a minimum of six (6) coats of the grid repair compound.
4. If both brown and silver layers of the grid are broken or missing, apply a coating of brown
lacquer touch-up paint across the open line area first. Take care to paint only the area missing the
color. Two (2) coats may be necessary to obtain the proper color. Allow the touch-up paint to dry at
least five (5) minutes between coats. Apply six (6) coats of grid repair compound.
NOTE
THE INTERIOR SIDE OF THE GRID LINES ARE NOT PAINTED, BUT DUE TO THE SILVER
TARNISHING WILL TEND TO CHANGE THE GRID TO A GOLD OR BROWN COLOR. THE
REPAIRED AREA WILL BE BRIGHT SILVER AND WILL ALSO TARNISH OVER

A/C/Audio - Defroster/Antenna Grid Diagnosis/Repair > Page 8991
TIME TO MATCH THE REST OF THE GRID.
5. After five (5) minutes of dry time of the final coat of grid repair compound, remove the tape, step
outside and inspect the repaired area. If the repair compound is visible above or below the grid, the
excess can be removed. This may be done by placing a single-edge razor blade on the back
window glass parallel to grid and scrape gently toward grid. A wider/thicker line will perform better
but may not be cosmetically appealing.
CAUTION
BE CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE GRID LINE WITH RAZOR BLADE. VERIFY ALL OF THE GRID
LINES FUNCTION PROPERLY WHEN FINISHED.
Curing
The service coating will air-dry in approximately one (1) minute and the system can be energized
after five minutes. Maximum hardness and adhesion occur after approximately 24 hours.
SOLDER METHOD OF LEAD TERMINAL
NOTE
THE REAR WINDOW MUST BE AT A MINIMUM OF 60° F (16° C) BEFORE A REPAIR IS MADE.
PLACE PROTECTIVE COVERING OVER THE PACKAGE TRAY AS NECESSARY.
The new terminal will cover the original terminal location, but must be placed so that the new
terminal conductive areas will be placed on a good conductive base. This area should be cleaned
with steel wool or an abrasive pad to remove grime from the buss-bar. The area should then be
cleaned with Ultra Clear Spray Glass Cleaner, ZC-23, or equivalent meeting Ford specification
ESR-M14P5-A to remove all dirt, wax, grease, oil or other foreign matter. It is important that the
repair area be clean and dry and appear metallic. Depending on the buss-bar condition, rigorous
polishing with steel wool may be required. Please note that the entire buss-bar may be cleaned to
improve appearance.
CAUTION
DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF FLAME TORCH OR FLAME HEATED SOLDERING GUN FOR THIS
PROCEDURE. TESTING INDICATED INADEQUATE HEAT GENERATION AT THE TIP AND THE
EXHAUST HEAT CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO PLASTIC TRIM PARTS IN THE AREA. USE ONLY
AN ELECTRIC SOLDERING GUN WITH 100 WATTS OR MORE OF POWER.
BEFORE USING THE SOLDERING GUN, BE SURE TO MELT A SMALL AMOUNT OF ROSIN
CORE SOLDER TO THE TIP. THE SOLDER WILL ASSIST IN ACHIEVING BETTER HEAT
TRANSFER FROM THE SOLDERING GUN TIP TO THE NEW TERMINAL.
The new terminal has pre-applied solder, flux and temperature sensitive paint. The paint provides a
visual indication when the terminal has reached the proper temperature to melt the solder on the
terminal. When the proper temperature is achieved the temperature paint will liquefy and change
color.

A/C/Audio - Defroster/Antenna Grid Diagnosis/Repair > Page 8992
Use terminal type A (Figure 2) for all tab locations except on the Focus vehicle line. For the Focus,
use type B (Figure 3).
NOTE
DEPENDING ON THE ORIGINAL TERMINAL LOCATION, AND WHETHER THE TERMINAL IS
COVERED BY PILLAR TRIM, WILL DETERMINE WHERE TO LOCATE THE NEW TERMINAL.
SOME GRID LINE BUSS-BARS MAY ONLY ALLOW THE PLACEMENT OF THE TERMINAL
ABOVE OR BELOW THE ORIGINAL TAB LOCATION DUE TO SPACE LIMITATIONS, BUT FOR
MOST VEHICLE APPLICATIONS THE REPLACEMENT TAB LOCATION WILL COVER THE
ORIGINAL TAB LOCATION BUT STILL ALLOW THE REPLACEMENT TAB TO ATTACH TO THE
BUSS-BAR ON GOOD CONDUCTIVE MATERIAL.
1. Place the replacement terminal over the original tab location making sure the conductive areas
of the terminal will be on a good conductive area. Do not place the terminal tab foot on the original
location which does not have conductive material (figure 4).
2. Hold the terminal in place with an item such as regular lead pencil at a 90 degree angle from the
terminal. (Terminal type B can be held in place with tape.) (Holding at other than a 90 degree angle
may allow the terminal to slip when the solder liquefies).
3. Place the soldering gun tip on the top of the terminal but not on the painted areas of the tab.
Energize the soldering gun and watch for the painted area of the terminal to liquefy and change
color. The paint should liquefy in approximately 25-45 seconds after heating. As soon as the paint
color completely changes on either side of the terminal, de-energize the soldering gun and
continue to hold the terminal in place with the soldering gun and pencil for an additional thirty (30)
seconds.
4. Remove the soldering gun and pencil from the terminal. The terminal should be allowed to cool
for another two (2) minutes before the wiring lead is attached to the terminal.
5. Attach the electrical lead connection to this terminal, turn on the rear defroster, and verify
operation.

quarter window glass will be equipped with new locating tabs.
3. Using a soft brush or vacuum, remove any foreign material or dirt from the pinch weld.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: After installing the urethane installed glass, the vehicle should not be driven until the
urethane adhesive has cured. The curing time at temperatures above 13°C (55°F) and relative
humidity above 50% is 12 - 24 hours. (Refer to the Essex drive away chart for the cure times as
temperatures and humidity vary.) Inadequate curing of the urethane adhesive will adversely affect
the strength of the urethane bond.
1. Dry fit the quarter window glass, making alignment marks with tape or non-staining grease
pencil.

CAUTION: Use caution when applying Urethane Metal Primer Essex U-413. Apply a light amount
of primer. Too much primer will run and damage the painted surface.
4. Clean the inside of the quarter glass surface with alcohol-free cleaner, making sure the ceramic
coated area is clean. 5. Apply Urethane Glass Prep Essex U-401 meeting Ford specification
WSB-M2G314-B twice around the glass surface to urethaned.
NOTE: Wipe off the glass prep immediately after each application because it flash dries.
6. Apply Glass Primer Essex U-402 meeting Ford specification WSB-M5B280-C to the same area
that was prepped in the previous step. Allow five
minutes to dry.
7. Cut the urethane adhesive applicator tip to specification.
8. Apply a bead of Urethane Adhesive Essex 400-HV or Essex U-216, which meets Ford
specification WSB-M2G316-B. Start at the bottom and
work around to the sides of the quarter window glass.
NOTE: Use caution when applying urethane adhesive. Apply to the outside edges of locating tabs
on the glass surface.

ELECTRICAL - REAR WIPER ARM REMOVAL - SERVICE TIP
FORD: 2001-2004 ESCAPE
ISSUE Some Escape vehicles may exhibit the rear wiper arm being seized to the motor and
difficult to remove. This may be caused by an insufficient amount of anti-seize compound on the
arm/motor shaft splines.
ACTION For vehicle service requiring the removal of the rear wiper arm, the following Service
Procedure will help to free the wiper arm from the motor shaft.
NOTE
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE WIPER ARM BY CUTTING THE MOTOR SHAFT WITH A
HACKSAW OR GRIND TOOL. CUTTING THE MOTOR SHAFT WILL MAKE THE MOTOR
UNUSABLE REQUIRING REPLACEMENT. IN ADDITION, DAMAGE TO THE LIFTGATE GLASS
MAY OCCUR. HOWEVER IF THE REASON FOR SERVICE IS DUE TO AN INOPERABLE REAR
WIPER MOTOR AND THE WIPER ARM IS SEIZED, THEN CUTTING THE MOTOR SHAFT IS AN
ACCEPTABLE MEANS OF REMOVAL. USE CAUTION AS TO NOT DAMAGE THE VEHICLE'S
PAINT, GLASS, BODY PANELS, ETC. INSTALL PROTECTIVE TAPE AND/OR AN PROTECTIVE
COVERING AROUND THE LIFTGATE AREA AND BELOW REAR WIPER MOTOR.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
1. Confirm that wiper arm is seized on motor and that the wiper arm retainer latch is in the "release"
position.
2. Mark and LIGHTLY center punch the exact center of arm mount "circle" (area over motor shaft).
3. Carefully drill through wiper arm using 1/8" drill bit. Do not drill into the motor shaft.
NOTE
PREVENT METAL SHAVINGS FROM FALLING ONTO THE BODY OR PAINT AS DAMAGE MAY
OCCUR.
4. Enlarge the drilled hole using 3/8" drill bit.
5. Apply a small amount of penetrating oil at contact area of splines for wiper arm and motor.
6. Tap on joint area lightly to create vibration and facilitate penetrating oil working into splines of
arm and motor.
7. Allow the oil to sit and penetrate for several minutes.
NOTE
BE SURE THE WIPER ARM RETAINER CLIP IS IN THE "RELEASE" POSITION BEFORE
CONTINUING WITH STEP 8.
8. Install a puller with a 5/16" or smaller center screw (e.g. Battery Clamp Puller) to the wiper arm
so that jaws of puller are pulling against the arm, and center post of puller is pressing against
center of wiper motor shaft.
NOTE
ENSURE THAT JAWS OF PULLER ARE PULLING AGAINST WIPER ARM AND NOT MOTOR
SHAFT BUSHING.
9. Tighten puller in very small increments while tapping lightly on the wiper arm and center shaft of
puller.
With pressure applied to the wiper arm and shaft a light shock should pop arm off of motor shaft.
NOTE
BE CAREFUL THAT ARM & PULLER DO NOT FALL AND DAMAGE THE LIFTGATE AND/OR
BUMPER.
10. When installing the new wiper arm, remove all corrosion/rust from motor splines and apply
anti-seize compound to splines of arm and motor.

ELECTRICAL - REAR WIPER ARM REMOVAL - SERVICE TIP
FORD: 2001-2004 ESCAPE
ISSUE Some Escape vehicles may exhibit the rear wiper arm being seized to the motor and
difficult to remove. This may be caused by an insufficient amount of anti-seize compound on the
arm/motor shaft splines.
ACTION For vehicle service requiring the removal of the rear wiper arm, the following Service
Procedure will help to free the wiper arm from the motor shaft.
NOTE
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE WIPER ARM BY CUTTING THE MOTOR SHAFT WITH A
HACKSAW OR GRIND TOOL. CUTTING THE MOTOR SHAFT WILL MAKE THE MOTOR
UNUSABLE REQUIRING REPLACEMENT. IN ADDITION, DAMAGE TO THE LIFTGATE GLASS
MAY OCCUR. HOWEVER IF THE REASON FOR SERVICE IS DUE TO AN INOPERABLE REAR
WIPER MOTOR AND THE WIPER ARM IS SEIZED, THEN CUTTING THE MOTOR SHAFT IS AN
ACCEPTABLE MEANS OF REMOVAL. USE CAUTION AS TO NOT DAMAGE THE VEHICLE'S
PAINT, GLASS, BODY PANELS, ETC. INSTALL PROTECTIVE TAPE AND/OR AN PROTECTIVE
COVERING AROUND THE LIFTGATE AREA AND BELOW REAR WIPER MOTOR.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
1. Confirm that wiper arm is seized on motor and that the wiper arm retainer latch is in the "release"
position.
2. Mark and LIGHTLY center punch the exact center of arm mount "circle" (area over motor shaft).
3. Carefully drill through wiper arm using 1/8" drill bit. Do not drill into the motor shaft.
NOTE
PREVENT METAL SHAVINGS FROM FALLING ONTO THE BODY OR PAINT AS DAMAGE MAY
OCCUR.
4. Enlarge the drilled hole using 3/8" drill bit.
5. Apply a small amount of penetrating oil at contact area of splines for wiper arm and motor.
6. Tap on joint area lightly to create vibration and facilitate penetrating oil working into splines of
arm and motor.
7. Allow the oil to sit and penetrate for several minutes.
NOTE
BE SURE THE WIPER ARM RETAINER CLIP IS IN THE "RELEASE" POSITION BEFORE
CONTINUING WITH STEP 8.
8. Install a puller with a 5/16" or smaller center screw (e.g. Battery Clamp Puller) to the wiper arm
so that jaws of puller are pulling against the arm, and center post of puller is pressing against
center of wiper motor shaft.
NOTE
ENSURE THAT JAWS OF PULLER ARE PULLING AGAINST WIPER ARM AND NOT MOTOR
SHAFT BUSHING.
9. Tighten puller in very small increments while tapping lightly on the wiper arm and center shaft of
puller.
With pressure applied to the wiper arm and shaft a light shock should pop arm off of motor shaft.
NOTE
BE CAREFUL THAT ARM & PULLER DO NOT FALL AND DAMAGE THE LIFTGATE AND/OR
BUMPER.
10. When installing the new wiper arm, remove all corrosion/rust from motor splines and apply
anti-seize compound to splines of arm and motor.
