The A/CCR is wired normally open. There is no direct electrical connection between the A/C switch or electronic automatic temperature control (EATC) module and the A/C clutch. The PCM receives a signal indicating that A/C is requested. For some applications, this message is sent through the communications network. When A/C is requested, the PCM checks other A/C related inputs that are available, such as A/C pressure switch and A/C cycling switch. If these inputs indicate A/C operation is OK, and the engine conditions are OK (coolant temperature, engine RPM, throttle position), the PCM grounds the A/CCR output, closing the relay contacts and sending voltage to the A/CCR.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation Electronic Throttle Control Module: Description and Operation TORQUE BASED ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL (ETC) Overview The torque based ETC is a hardware and software strategy that delivers an engine output torque (via throttle angle) based on driver demand (pedal position). It uses an electronic throttle body, the powertrain control module (PCM), and an accelerator pedal assembly to control the throttle opening and engine torque. The ETC system replaces the standard cable operated accelerator pedal, idle air control (IAC) valve, 3-wire throttle position (TP) sensor, and mechanical throttle body. Torque based ETC enables aggressive automatic transmission shift schedules (earlier upshifts and later downshifts). This is possible by adjusting the throttle angle to achieve the same wheel torque during shifts, and by calculating this desired torque, the system prevents engine lugging (low RPM and low manifold vacuum) while still delivering the performance and torque requested by the driver. It also enables many fuel economy/emission improvement technologies such as variable camshaft timing (VCT) (deliver same torque during transitions). Torque based ETC also results in less intrusive vehicle and engine speed limiting, along with smoother traction control. Other benefits of ETC are: eliminate cruise control actuators - eliminate idle air control (IAC) valve - better airflow range - packaging (no cable) - more responsive powertrain at altitude and improved shift quality It should be noted that the ETC system illuminates a powertrain malfunction indicator (wrench) on the instrument cluster when a concern is present. Concerns are accompanied by diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and may also illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). Electronic Throttle Body (ETB) The ETB has the following characteristics: 1. The throttle actuator control (TAC) motor is a DC motor controlled by the PCM (requires 2-wires). The gear ratio from the motor to the throttle plate shaft is 17:1. 2. There are 2 designs: parallel and in-series. The parallel design has the motor under the bore parallel to the plate shaft. The motor housing is integrated into the main housing. The in-series design has a separate motor housing. 3. Two springs are used: one is used to close the throttle (main spring) and the other is in a plunger assembly that results in a default angle when no power is applied. This is for limp home reasons (the force of the plunger spring is 2 times stronger than the main spring). The default angle is usually set to result in a top vehicle speed of 48 km/h (30 mph). Typically this throttle angle is 7 to 8 degrees from the hard-stop angle. 4. The closed throttle plate hard stop is used to prevent the throttle from binding in the bore (~0.75 degree). This hard stop setting is not adjustable and is set to result in less airflow than the minimum engine airflow required at idle. 5. Unlike cable operated throttle bodies, the intent for the ETB is not to have a hole in the throttle plate or to use plate sealant. The hole is not required in the ETB because the required idle airflow is provided by the plate angle in the throttle body assembly. This plate angle controls idle, idle quality, and eliminates the need for an IAC valve. 6. The TP sensor has 2 signal circuits in the sensor for redundancy. The redundant throttle position signals are required for increased monitoring reasons. The first TP signal (TP1) has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and the second signal (TP2) has a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation the negative slope TP signal (TP1) is used by the control strategy as the indication of throttle position. The TP sensor assembly requires 4 circuits. 5-volt reference voltage - Signal return (ground) - TP1 voltage with negative voltage slope (5-0 volts) - TP2 voltage with positive voltage slope (0-5 volts) Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensors Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 185 Electronic Throttle Body (ETB) And Accelerator Pedal Assembly The ETC strategy uses pedal position sensors as an input to determine the driver demand. 1. There are 3 pedal position signals required for system monitoring. APP1 has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and APP2 and APP3 both have a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation APP1 is used as the indication of pedal position by the strategy. 2. There are 2 VREF circuits, 2 signal return circuits, and 3 signal circuits (a total of 7 circuits and pins) between the PCM and the APP sensor assembly. 2 reference voltage circuits (5 volts) - 2 signal return (ground) circuits - APP1 voltage with negative voltage slope (5-0 volts) - APP2 voltage with positive voltage slope (0-5 volts) - APP3 voltage with positive voltage slope (0-5 volts) 3. The pedal position signal is convened to pedal travel degrees (rotary angle) by the PCM. The software then converts these degrees to counts, which is the input to the torque based strategy. 4. The 3 pedal position signals make sure the PCM receives a correct input even if 1 signal has a concern. The PCM determines if a signal is incorrect by calculating where it should be, inferred from the other signals. A value is substituted for an incorrect signal if 2 of the 3 signals are incorrect. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) System Strategy Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 186 ETC System The torque based ETC strategy was developed to improve fuel economy and to accommodate variable camshaft timing (VCT). This is possible by not coupling the throttle angle to the driver pedal position. Uncoupling the throttle angle (produce engine torque) from the pedal position (driver demand) allows the powertrain control strategy to optimize fuel control and transmission shift schedules while delivering the requested wheel torque. The ETC monitor system is distributed across 2 processors within the PCM: the main powertrain control processor unit (CPU) and a monitoring processor called an enhanced-quizzer (E-Quizzer) processor. The primary monitoring function is carried out by the independent plausibility check (IPC) software, which resides on the main processor. It is responsible for determining the driver-demanded torque and comparing it to an estimate of the actual torque delivered. If the generated torque exceeds driver demand by a specified amount, the IPC takes appropriate corrective action. ETC System Failure Mode And Effects Management (Part 1) Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 187 ETC System Failure Mode And Effects Management (Part 2) Since the IPC and the main controller share the same processor, they are subject to a number of potential common failure modes. The E-Quizzer processor was added to redundantly monitor selected PCM inputs and to act as an intelligent watchdog and monitor the performance of the IPC and the main processor. If it determines that the IPC function is impaired in any way, it takes appropriate failure mode and effects management (FMEM) actions.

It is a separate chip embedded in the PCM. The desired angle is communicated from the main CPU via a 312.5 Hz duty cycle (DC) signal. The TPPC interprets the duty cycle signal as follows: Less than 4% - Out of range, limp home default position. - Greater than or equal to 4% but less than 6% - Commanded default position, closed. - Greater than or equal to 6% but less than 7% - Commanded default position. Used for key ON, engine OFF. - Greater than or equal to 7% but less than 8% - Enable ice breaker mode. Used to clear potential ice buildup in the throttle body. - Greater than or equal to 8% but less than 10% - Closed against hard-stop. Used to learn zero throttle angle position (hard stop) after key-up. - Greater than or equal to 10% but less than or equal to 92% - Normal operation, between 0 degrees (hard stop) and 82 degrees, 10% duty cycle equals 0 degrees throttle angle, 92% duty cycle equals 82 degrees throttle angle. - Greater than 92% but less than or equal to 96% - Wide open throttle, 82 to 86 degrees throttle angle. - Greater than 96% but less than or equal to 100% - Out of range, limp home default position. The desired angle is relative to the hard-stop angle. The hard stop angle is learned during each key-up process before the main CPU requests the throttle plate be closed against the hard stop. The output of the TPPC is a voltage request to the H driver (also in PCM). The H driver is capable of positive or negative voltage to the electronic throttle body motor.

This will allow the sludge compensation strategy to learn. 3. With the vehicle in park or neutral and A/C off, start vehicle and allow engine to reach normal operating temperature(greater than 170 °F (77 °C) coolant temperature). Run an additional 5 minutes to allow sufficient learning time. 4. While the engine is running, using IDS datalogger or equivalent, check the PID value of ETC_TRIM. a. If ETC_TRIM value is 3.5 degrees, and/or DTC PuSE is present, then replace the electronic throttle body (ETB), following Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 303-04B. b. If ETC_TRIM value is less than 3.5 degrees and DTC PuSE is not present, but driveability concerns persist, the ETB is not the likely cause of the concern and replacement is not necessary. Continue with normal PC/ED diagnostics.

ISSUE Some 2004-2007 Explorer 4dr/Mountaineer vehicles may exhibit the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on with diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P0463 or an erratic fuel gauge concern. This could be from sulphur contamination in the fuel, causing an open or high resistance on the fuel sender card. ACTION Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition. SERVICE PROCEDURE 1. For vehicles with customer symptom of erratic fuel gauge operation (with no MIL on), proceed to Step 1a. For vehicles with a customer symptom including the MIL on, proceed to Step 1b. If unable to verify the concern, do not continue with this TSB. a. Follow the appropriate pinpoint test (PPT) for "Fuel Gauge Inaccurate" in Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 413-01. If PPT test results lead to fuel pump module replacement, proceed to Step 2. If PPT test results isolate any problem other than fuel pump module replacement, repair as indicated and do not continue with this TSB. b. Install diagnostic scan tool to retrieve DTCs. If DTC P0463 is retrieved, proceed to Step 2. If DTC P0463 is not retrieved, this TSB does not apply, follow normal WSM diagnostics. 2. Remove fuel tank per WSM, Section 310-01. 3. Remove fuel pump assembly from fuel tank per WSM, Section 310-01. See Figure 1 (Chart) to determine if a kit (contains a fuel level sensor assembly, a wire harness and heat shrink tube) or fuel pump assembly is required for repair. For vehicles that can be serviced with a kit go to Step 4. For vehicles that require fuel pump assembly replacement, go to Step 12. 4. Remove the fuel level sensor assembly (sender card/float rod assembly) from the fuel pump assembly per WSM, Section 310-01.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

The EEPROM contains the vehicle strategy including calibration information specific to the vehicle, and is capable of being programmed or flashed repeatedly. As part of the calibration there is an area referred to as the vehicle identification (VID) block. The VID block is programmed when installing a new PCM as described under Programming the VID Block for a Replacement PCM. Failure to carry out this procedure may generate DTCs P1635 or P1639. The VID block in an existing PCM can also be tailored to accommodate various hardware or parameter changes made to the vehicle since production. Failure to carry out this procedure properly may generate DTC P1635, Tire/Axle Ratio out of Acceptable Range. An incorrect tire/axle ratio is one of the main causes for DTC P1639. This is described under Making Changes to the VID Block and also under Making Changes to the PCM Calibration. The VID block contains many items used by the strategy for a variety of functions. Some of these items include the vehicle identification number (VIN), octane adjust, fuel octane, fuel type, vehicle speed limit, tire size, axle ratio, the presence of speed control, and 4-wheel drive electronic shift-on-the-fly (ESOF) versus manual shift-on-the-fly (MSOF). Only items applicable to the vehicle hardware and supported by the VID block is displayed on the scan tool. When changing items in the VID block, the strategy places range limits on certain items such as tire and axle ratio. The number of times the VID block may be reconfigured is limited. When this limit is reached, the scan tool displays a message indicating the need to flash the PCM again to reset the VID block. Programming can be carried out by a local Ford dealer or any non-Ford facility. Refer to the scan tool manufacturer's instruction manual for details. Programming the VID Block for a Replacement PCM A new PCM contains the latest strategy and calibration level for a particular vehicle. However, the VID block is blank and needs programming. There are 2 procedures available. The first is an automatic data transfer from the old PCM to the new PCM, and the second is manual data entry into the new PCM. Automatic data transfer is carried out if the old PCM is capable of communicating. This is done by using a scan tool to retrieve data from the old PCM before removing it from the vehicle. The stored data can then be downloaded to the new PCM after it has been installed. Carry out manual data entry if the old module is damaged or incapable of communicating. Remove and install a new PCM. Using a compatible scan tool, select and carry out the module/parameter programming, referring to the scan tool manufacturer's instruction manual. Make certain that all parameters are included. Failure to properly program tire size in revolutions per mile, (rev/mile equals 63,360 divided by the tire circumference in inches), axle ratio, 4x4/4x2, and/or MSOF/ESOF may result in DTCs P1635 and P1639. You may be instructed to contact the As-Built Data Center for the information needed to manually update the VID block with the scan tool. Contact the center only if the old PCM cannot be used or the data is corrupt. For Ford and Lincoln Mercury technicians, contact your National Hotline or the Professional Technician Society (PTS) website for As-Built data listed under the Service Publications Index. Non-Ford technicians use the Motorcraft(R) website at www.motorcraft.com. From the Motorcraft(R) homepage, use the search function to find the Module Programming or As-Built Data. For Ford and Lincoln Mercury technicians, check the Programmable Module Installation link on the PTS website for quick Programmable Module data information by vehicle. Making Changes to the VID Block A PCM which is programmed may require changes to be made to certain VID information to accommodate the vehicle hardware. Refer to Module Reprogramming on the scan tool. Making Changes to the PCM Calibration At certain times, the entire EEPROM needs to be completely reprogrammed. This is due to changes made to the strategy or calibration after production, or the need to reset the VID block because it has reached its limit. Refer to Module Reprogramming on the scan tool.

ISSUE Various 2001-2007 vehicles are equipped with a restraints control module (RCM) that report diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) which provide general fault information. These DTCs require accessing the associated bit-mapped PIDs (fault PIDs) to identify the specific fault. Most 2001-2006 Workshop Manuals (WSM) were written using New Generation STAR Tester (NGS) terminology and navigation which does not translate well when using Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS), Portable Diagnostic Software (PDS) or Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS). ACTION Refer to the Service Tips to assist with navigation of both the WSM and the scan tool being used. SERVICE TIPS DTCs And Associated Fault PIDs Description Many of the continuous memory and on-demand DTCs that can be present in the RCM provide general fault information and require accessing the associated bit-mapped PIDs (fault PIDs) to identify the specific concern. DTCs that use fault PIDs are conceptually different from conventional DTCs. Conventional DTCs identify a specific concern for a given component and point to a particular diagnostic path. In the diagnostic path, PIDs are sometimes used to determine the root cause.

The DTC identifies the component(s) or type of component(s) in which the concern exists. The next level, fault PIDs, identifies the specific device and fault condition. Fault PIDs are available for both on-demand (active) and continuous memory (historic or intermittent) DTCs. A scan tool must be used to view the DTCs and their fault PIDs. The table lists those DTCs that are supported by associated fault PIDs. (Figures 1-5) VIEWING FAULT PIDS USING SCAN TOOLS WSM Direction to FLAG DTC/View Fault PIDs The information in viewing fault PIDs in the WSM has evolved over the years as the scan tools have transitioned. Examples of how the WSM may direct you to view fault PIDs are: ^ FLAG DTC XXXXX/Record All Flagged Faults (2001-2006 WS Ms) Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Restraint Systems > Air Bag Control Module > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Restraints - Control Module DTCs & Associated Fault PIDs > Page 294 ^ View and Record DTC XXXXX Fault PIDs (2007 WSM) ^ DataLogger/View and Record DTC XXXXX Fault Pids (2008 and future WSMs) In each instance the direction is the same (view fault PIDs to identify the specific component and fault condition) but how they are accessed by the scan tools, as well as the scan tool terminology, will vary. FLAG the DTC - View the Fault PIDs For example, the "Flag" DTC feature is specific to NGS/NGS+. When using IDS/PDS it is necessary to view the fault PIDs from DataLogger. Using IDS/PDS NOTE WHEN USING IDS/PDS, MOVE THE CURSOR OVER THE PID OR SELECT THE PID TO DISPLAY ITS DEFINITION AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN. WHEN USING PDS, HIGHLIGHT OR MOVE THE STYLUS OVER THE PID TO SEE THE PID DEFINITION. 1. Perform a self test of the RCM and/or OCS module to retrieve on-demand and continuous memory DTCs. 2. To view the fault PIDs associated with an on-demand DTC: a. Toolbox b. DataLogger c. Modules d. RCM 3. Monitor all "_OD" PID(s) matching the DTC present; follow diagnostic procedure for the PID that reads "FAULT". ^ For example, a B2296 fault is present. In DataLogger the fault PID 2296_18_OD PID reads "FAULT' indicating a front internal crash sensor fault. 4. To view the fault PIDs associated with a continuous memory DTC: a. Toolbox b. DataLogger c. Modules d. RCM 5. Monitor all "_CM" PID(s) matching the DTC present; follow diagnostic procedure for the PID that reads "FAULT". For example, a B2296 fault is present. In DataLogger the fault PID 2296_18_CM PID reads "FAULT" indicating a front internal crash sensor fault. IDS/PDS Fault PID Naming Conventions The fault PIDs as displayed on IDS/PDS uses a strategy associating it with the DTC. For example, the fault PIDs 2296_18_OD and 2296_18_CM break down as follows: ^ 2296 - The DTC number minus the "B" (body) or "C" (chassis) designation. ^ 18 - An identifier used to distinguish between each of the fault PIDs associated with the DTC. ^ OD - Identifies the fault PID as an on-demand fault. ^ CM - Identifies the fault PID as a continuous memory (intermittent) fault.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in the inadvertent deployment of the safety canopy and risk of personal injury. - The restraints control module (RCM) orientation is critical for correct system operation. If a vehicle equipped with an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) has been involved in a collision in which the center tunnel area has been damaged, inspect the mounting and bracket for deformation. If damaged, a new RCM must be installed whether or not the air bags have deployed. In addition, make sure the area of the RCM mounting is restored to its original condition. CAUTION: When installing a new RCM on vehicles built 7/31/06 or after, it is necessary to carry out programmable module installation (PMI). NOTE: When installing a new RCM, always make sure the correct RCM is being installed. If an incorrect RCM is installed, erroneous DTCs will result. The RCM carries out the following functions: - deploys the air bag(s) in the event of a deployable crash. - activates the safety belt buckle pretensioner and safety belt adaptive load limiting retractor to control tension on the safety belt. - monitors the SRS for faults. - requests the illumination of the air bag indicator if a fault is detected. - communicates through the DLC the on-demand or continuous DTCs. The RCM monitors the SRS for possible faults. If a fault is detected while the ignition switch is in the ON position, the RCM will request illumination of 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 6 seconds and then off. If a SRS fault exists, the air bag indicator will illuminate and remain illuminated for the rest of the key cycle. The RCM will also communicate the on-demand (current) and continuous (historical) DTCs through the DLC, to the scan tool. If the RCM requests illumination of the air bag indicator and the air bag indicator does not function, the instrument cluster module will automatically activate an audible chime. The chime is a series of 5 sets of 5 tone bursts. If the chime is heard, the SRS and the air bag indicator require repair. 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 lost or damaged during impact. The backup power supply will deplete its stored energy approximately one minute after the battery ground cable is disconnected.

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. Install a new sensor and correctly position the sensor or any other damaged SRS components whether or not the air bag is deployed. - The tightening torque of the air bag RCM retaining nuts is critical for correct system operation. - To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices. CAUTION: - Electronic modules are sensitive to static electrical charges. If exposed to these charges, damage can result. - When installing a new RCM on vehicles built 7/31/06 or after, it is necessary to carry out programmable module installation (PMI). See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Information Bus/Testing and Inspection/Programming and Relearning NOTE: - When installing a new RCM, always make sure the correct RCM is being installed. If an incorrect RCM is installed, erroneous DTCs will result. - 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 SRS fault. - The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer. - Repair is made by installing a new part only. If the new part does not correct the condition, install the original part and carry out the diagnostic procedure again. Vehicles built 7/31/06 or after 1.

Light pressure is needed to get the connector into position on the RCM before using the lever to fully seat the connector. With the large RCM electrical connector uniformly aligned to the RCM, lightly push in until a subtle audible click is heard and a slight resistance is felt. - Using the connector position assurance lever, pivot it toward the RCM, drawing the connector into the RCM. Make sure the thumb tab is engaged to the retainer on the RCM and locked in place. 7. Install the floor console. 8. Repower the system. Do not prove out the SRS at this time. Vehicles built 7/31/06 or after 9. Carry out the steps necessary to complete PMI. All vehicles 10. Prove out the supplemental restraint system (SRS) as follows: Turn the ignition switch from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the ignition switch 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 6 seconds and then turn off. If an air bag SRS fault is present, the air bag indicator will: fail to light. - remain lit continuously. - flash at a 5 Hz rate (RCM not configured). The air bag indicator might not light 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 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 5 sets of 5 beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator and any SRS fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired. Clear all continuous diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) from the RCM and occupant classification sensor (OCS) module using a scan tool.

ISSUE Various 2001-2007 vehicles are equipped with a restraints control module (RCM) that report diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) which provide general fault information. These DTCs require accessing the associated bit-mapped PIDs (fault PIDs) to identify the specific fault. Most 2001-2006 Workshop Manuals (WSM) were written using New Generation STAR Tester (NGS) terminology and navigation which does not translate well when using Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS), Portable Diagnostic Software (PDS) or Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS). ACTION Refer to the Service Tips to assist with navigation of both the WSM and the scan tool being used. SERVICE TIPS DTCs And Associated Fault PIDs Description Many of the continuous memory and on-demand DTCs that can be present in the RCM provide general fault information and require accessing the associated bit-mapped PIDs (fault PIDs) to identify the specific concern. DTCs that use fault PIDs are conceptually different from conventional DTCs. Conventional DTCs identify a specific concern for a given component and point to a particular diagnostic path. In the diagnostic path, PIDs are sometimes used to determine the root cause.

The DTC identifies the component(s) or type of component(s) in which the concern exists. The next level, fault PIDs, identifies the specific device and fault condition. Fault PIDs are available for both on-demand (active) and continuous memory (historic or intermittent) DTCs. A scan tool must be used to view the DTCs and their fault PIDs. The table lists those DTCs that are supported by associated fault PIDs. (Figures 1-5) VIEWING FAULT PIDS USING SCAN TOOLS WSM Direction to FLAG DTC/View Fault PIDs The information in viewing fault PIDs in the WSM has evolved over the years as the scan tools have transitioned. Examples of how the WSM may direct you to view fault PIDs are: ^ FLAG DTC XXXXX/Record All Flagged Faults (2001-2006 WS Ms) Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Restraint Systems > Seat Belt Control Module > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Restraints - Control Module DTCs & Associated Fault PIDs > Page 315 ^ View and Record DTC XXXXX Fault PIDs (2007 WSM) ^ DataLogger/View and Record DTC XXXXX Fault Pids (2008 and future WSMs) In each instance the direction is the same (view fault PIDs to identify the specific component and fault condition) but how they are accessed by the scan tools, as well as the scan tool terminology, will vary. FLAG the DTC - View the Fault PIDs For example, the "Flag" DTC feature is specific to NGS/NGS+. When using IDS/PDS it is necessary to view the fault PIDs from DataLogger. Using IDS/PDS NOTE WHEN USING IDS/PDS, MOVE THE CURSOR OVER THE PID OR SELECT THE PID TO DISPLAY ITS DEFINITION AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN. WHEN USING PDS, HIGHLIGHT OR MOVE THE STYLUS OVER THE PID TO SEE THE PID DEFINITION. 1. Perform a self test of the RCM and/or OCS module to retrieve on-demand and continuous memory DTCs. 2. To view the fault PIDs associated with an on-demand DTC: a. Toolbox b. DataLogger c. Modules d. RCM 3. Monitor all "_OD" PID(s) matching the DTC present; follow diagnostic procedure for the PID that reads "FAULT". ^ For example, a B2296 fault is present. In DataLogger the fault PID 2296_18_OD PID reads "FAULT' indicating a front internal crash sensor fault. 4. To view the fault PIDs associated with a continuous memory DTC: a. Toolbox b. DataLogger c. Modules d. RCM 5. Monitor all "_CM" PID(s) matching the DTC present; follow diagnostic procedure for the PID that reads "FAULT". For example, a B2296 fault is present. In DataLogger the fault PID 2296_18_CM PID reads "FAULT" indicating a front internal crash sensor fault. IDS/PDS Fault PID Naming Conventions The fault PIDs as displayed on IDS/PDS uses a strategy associating it with the DTC. For example, the fault PIDs 2296_18_OD and 2296_18_CM break down as follows: ^ 2296 - The DTC number minus the "B" (body) or "C" (chassis) designation. ^ 18 - An identifier used to distinguish between each of the fault PIDs associated with the DTC. ^ OD - Identifies the fault PID as an on-demand fault. ^ CM - Identifies the fault PID as a continuous memory (intermittent) fault.

If the cooling fan clutch is moving at a relatively low speed, the sensor produces a signal with a low frequency. As the cooling fan clutch speed increases, the sensor generates a signal with a higher frequency. The powertrain control module (PCM) uses the frequency signal generated by the FSS as a feedback for closed loop control of the cooling fan clutch.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes 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 PCM uses the ECT input for fuel control and for cooling fan control. There are 3 types of ECT sensors, threaded, push-in, and twist-lock. The ECT sensor is located in an engine coolant passage.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature increases., and the resistance 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. The CHT sensor is installed in the 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 initiates a fail-safe cooling strategy based on information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system concern 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.

The BPP switch provides a signal to the PCM indicating that the brakes are applied. The BPP switch is normally open and is mounted on the brake pedal support. Depending on the vehicle application the BPP switch can be hardwired as follows: - to the PCM supplying battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is applied. - to the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, or lighting control module (LCM), the BPP signal is then broadcast over the network to be received by the PCM. - to the ABS traction control/stability assist module. The ABS module interprets the BPP switch input along with other ABS inputs and generates an output called the driver brake application (DBA) signal. The DBA signal is then sent to the PCM and to other BPP signal users.

A normally closed switch supplies battery positive voltage (B+) to the PCM when the brake pedal is not applied. When the brake pedal is applied, the normally closed switch opens and power is removed from the PCM. On some applications the normally closed BPS, along with the normally open BPP switch, are used for a brake rationality test within the PCM. The PCM misfire monitor profile learn function may be disabled if a brake switch concern occurs. If one or both brake pedal inputs to the PCM is not changing states when they were expected to, a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is set by the PCM strategy.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to temperature. Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors.

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 sensor measures the temperature of the engine oil. The sensor is typically threaded into the engine oil lubrication system. The PCM can use the EOT sensor input to determine the following: - On variable camshaft timing (VCT) applications the EOT input is used to adjust the VCT control gains and logic for camshaft timing. - The PCM can use EOT sensor input in conjunction with other PCM inputs to determine oil degradation. - The PCM can use EOT sensor input to initiate a soft engine shutdown. To prevent engine damage from occurring as a result of high oil temperatures, the PCM has the ability to initiate a soft engine shutdown. Whenever engine RPM exceeds a calibrated level for a certain period of time, the PCM begins reducing power by disabling engine cylinders.

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 the resistance 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 changes 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, improve defrost/demist performance, and reduce A/C clutch cycling. NOTE: These values can vary 15% due to sensor and VREF variations. Voltage values were calculated for VREF equals 5.0 volts.

ISSUE Some 2004-2007 Explorer 4dr/Mountaineer vehicles may exhibit the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on with diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P0463 or an erratic fuel gauge concern. This could be from sulphur contamination in the fuel, causing an open or high resistance on the fuel sender card. ACTION Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition. SERVICE PROCEDURE 1. For vehicles with customer symptom of erratic fuel gauge operation (with no MIL on), proceed to Step 1a. For vehicles with a customer symptom including the MIL on, proceed to Step 1b. If unable to verify the concern, do not continue with this TSB. a. Follow the appropriate pinpoint test (PPT) for "Fuel Gauge Inaccurate" in Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 413-01. If PPT test results lead to fuel pump module replacement, proceed to Step 2. If PPT test results isolate any problem other than fuel pump module replacement, repair as indicated and do not continue with this TSB. b. Install diagnostic scan tool to retrieve DTCs. If DTC P0463 is retrieved, proceed to Step 2. If DTC P0463 is not retrieved, this TSB does not apply, follow normal WSM diagnostics. 2. Remove fuel tank per WSM, Section 310-01. 3. Remove fuel pump assembly from fuel tank per WSM, Section 310-01. See Figure 1 (Chart) to determine if a kit (contains a fuel level sensor assembly, a wire harness and heat shrink tube) or fuel pump assembly is required for repair. For vehicles that can be serviced with a kit go to Step 4. For vehicles that require fuel pump assembly replacement, go to Step 12. 4. Remove the fuel level sensor assembly (sender card/float rod assembly) from the fuel pump assembly per WSM, Section 310-01.

ISSUE Some 2004-2007 Explorer 4dr/Mountaineer vehicles may exhibit the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on with diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P0463 or an erratic fuel gauge concern. This could be from sulphur contamination in the fuel, causing an open or high resistance on the fuel sender card. ACTION Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition. SERVICE PROCEDURE 1. For vehicles with customer symptom of erratic fuel gauge operation (with no MIL on), proceed to Step 1a. For vehicles with a customer symptom including the MIL on, proceed to Step 1b. If unable to verify the concern, do not continue with this TSB. a. Follow the appropriate pinpoint test (PPT) for "Fuel Gauge Inaccurate" in Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 413-01. If PPT test results lead to fuel pump module replacement, proceed to Step 2. If PPT test results isolate any problem other than fuel pump module replacement, repair as indicated and do not continue with this TSB. b. Install diagnostic scan tool to retrieve DTCs. If DTC P0463 is retrieved, proceed to Step 2. If DTC P0463 is not retrieved, this TSB does not apply, follow normal WSM diagnostics. 2. Remove fuel tank per WSM, Section 310-01. 3. Remove fuel pump assembly from fuel tank per WSM, Section 310-01. See Figure 1 (Chart) to determine if a kit (contains a fuel level sensor assembly, a wire harness and heat shrink tube) or fuel pump assembly is required for repair. For vehicles that can be serviced with a kit go to Step 4. For vehicles that require fuel pump assembly replacement, go to Step 12. 4. Remove the fuel level sensor assembly (sender card/float rod assembly) from the fuel pump assembly per WSM, Section 310-01.

The fuel pump is located inside the FP module reservoir and supplies fuel through the FP module manifold to the engine and FP module jet pump. The jet pump continuously refills the reservoir with fuel, and a check valve located in the manifold outlet maintains system pressure when the fuel pump is not energized. A flapper valve located in the bottom of the reservoir allows fuel to enter the reservoir and prime the fuel pump during the initial fill. FUEL PUMP (FP) MODULE AND RESERVOIR The FP module is mounted inside the fuel tank in a reservoir. The pump has a discharge check valve that maintains the system pressure after the key has been turned off to minimize starting concerns. The reservoir prevents fuel flow interruptions during extreme vehicle maneuvers with low tank fill levels.

PARK is a good position to check for intermittent open circuits (with scan tool monitoring TRD). ^ TR4, TR3A, TR2 and TR1 are all open in OVERDRIVE, so OVERDRIVE is a good position to check for shorts to ground. To determine the shorted components while observing TRD, unplug the TR and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present unplug the transmission harness and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present, then the short is in the PCM or vehicle harness. Remove the suspect circuit(s) wire terminal from the PCM connector. If the short is still present, then the PCM has an internal failure, otherwise the failure is in the vehicle harness.

The BPP switch provides a signal to the PCM indicating that the brakes are applied. The BPP switch is normally open and is mounted on the brake pedal support. Depending on the vehicle application the BPP switch can be hardwired as follows: - to the PCM supplying battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is applied. - to the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, or lighting control module (LCM), the BPP signal is then broadcast over the network to be received by the PCM. - to the ABS traction control/stability assist module. The ABS module interprets the BPP switch input along with other ABS inputs and generates an output called the driver brake application (DBA) signal. The DBA signal is then sent to the PCM and to other BPP signal users.

Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at 200°C (392°F) above the ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire. The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the mass air 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. This input is also used in determining transmission electronic pressure control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling. The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner assembly. Most MAF sensors have integrated bypass technology with an integrated intake air temperature (IAT) sensor. The hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced as an assembly. Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes 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 PCM uses the ECT input for fuel control and for cooling fan control. There are 3 types of ECT sensors, threaded, push-in, and twist-lock. The ECT sensor is located in an engine coolant passage.

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 10-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 for the CKP sensor configuration. The PCM also uses the CKP signal to determine if a misfire has occurred by measuring rapid deceleration between teeth.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature increases., and the resistance 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. The CHT sensor is installed in the 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 initiates a fail-safe cooling strategy based on information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system concern 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.

Both sensors are thermistor type devices and operate as described. One is located before the supercharger at the air cleaner for standard OBD/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 spark and to help determine charge air cooler (CAC) efficiency.

A high concentration of oxygen (lean air/fuel ratio) in the exhaust produces a voltage signal less than 0.4 volt. A low concentration of oxygen (rich air/fuel ratio) produces a 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 a temperature of 800°C (1,472°F). At approximately 300°C (572°F) the engine can enter closed loop operation. The VPWR circuit supplies voltage to the heater. The PCM turns the heater on by providing the ground when the correct conditions occur. The heater allows the engine to enter closed loop operation sooner. The use of this heater requires the HO2S heater control to be duty cycled, to prevent damage to the heater.

The PSP switch is a normally closed switch that opens as the hydraulic pressure increases. The PCM provides a low current voltage on the PSP circuit. When the PSP switch is closed, this voltage is pulled low through the SIG RTN circuit. 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 the transmission electronic pressure control (EPC) pressure during increased engine load, for example during parking maneuvers Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Sensors and Switches > Sensors and Switches - Powertrain Management > Sensors and Switches - Computers and Control Systems > Power Steering Pressure Switch > Component Information > Description and Operation > Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Switch > Page 824 Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Sensor POWER STEERING PRESSURE (PSP) SENSOR Typical Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Sensor The PSP sensor monitors the hydraulic pressure within the power steering system.

The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor receives this signal through 2 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 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.

The redundant ETB position signals are required for increased monitoring. The first ETB position sensor signal (TP1) has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and the second signal (TP2) has a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation the negative slope ETB position sensor signal (TP1) is used by the control strategy as the indication of throttle position. The 2 ETB position sensor signals make sure the PCM receives a correct input even if 1 signal has a concern. There is 1 reference voltage circuit and 1 signal return circuit for the sensor.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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.

PARK is a good position to check for intermittent open circuits (with scan tool monitoring TRD). ^ TR4, TR3A, TR2 and TR1 are all open in OVERDRIVE, so OVERDRIVE is a good position to check for shorts to ground. To determine the shorted components while observing TRD, unplug the TR and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present unplug the transmission harness and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present, then the short is in the PCM or vehicle harness. Remove the suspect circuit(s) wire terminal from the PCM connector. If the short is still present, then the PCM has an internal failure, otherwise the failure is in the vehicle harness.

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 that is generated.

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.

Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at 200°C (392°F) above the ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire. The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the mass air 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. This input is also used in determining transmission electronic pressure control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling. The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner assembly. Most MAF sensors have integrated bypass technology with an integrated intake air temperature (IAT) sensor. The hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced as an assembly. Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.

The electrical resistance of a strain gauge increases as pressure increases, and the resistance decreases as the 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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

The PSP switch is a normally closed switch that opens as the hydraulic pressure increases. The PCM provides a low current voltage on the PSP circuit. When the PSP switch is closed, this voltage is pulled low through the SIG RTN circuit. 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 the transmission electronic pressure control (EPC) pressure during increased engine load, for example during parking maneuvers Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Sensors and Switches > Sensors and Switches - Steering and Suspension > Sensors and Switches - Steering > Power Steering Pressure Switch > Component Information > Description and Operation > Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Switch > Page 1127 Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Sensor POWER STEERING PRESSURE (PSP) SENSOR Typical Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Sensor The PSP sensor monitors the hydraulic pressure within the power steering system.

It will be necessary to wake them up so they will transmit the latest tire pressure information to the Smart Junction Box (SJB). NOTE: The tire pressure sensor training procedure must be done on a single vehicle, in an area without radio frequency noise and at least 1 m (3 ft) away from other vehicles equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). Radio frequency noise is generated by electrical motors and appliance operation, cellular telephones, remote transmitters, power inverters and portable entertainment equipment. NOTE: If a sensor does not respond to the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool, attempt to activate the same sensor with the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool. If the sensor still does not respond, move the vehicle to rotate the wheels at least one-fourth of a turn and attempt to activate the same sensor again. NOTE: The SJB has a 2-minute time limit between sensor responses. If the SJB does not recognize any 1 of the 4 tire pressure sensors during this time limit, the horn will sound twice and the message center (if equipped) will display TIRE NOT TRAINED REPEAT and the entire procedure must be repeated. NOTE: For vehicles with different front and rear tire pressures (such as the E-Series and certain F-Series), the tire pressure sensors must be trained following a tire rotation. Failure to train the sensors will cause the TPMS indicator to illuminate. For vehicles with the same tire pressure for front and rear tires, tire rotation will not affect the system. 1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position, then press and release the brake pedal. 2. Cycle the ignition switch from the OFF position to the RUN position 3 times, ending in the RUN position. 3. Press and release the brake pedal. 4. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position. 5. Turn the ignition switch from the OFF position to the RUN position 3 times, ending in the RUN position. - The horn will sound once and the TPMS indicator will flash if the training mode has been entered successfully. If equipped, the message center will display TRAIN LF TIRE. NOTE: It may take up to 6 seconds to activate a tire pressure sensor. During this time, the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool must remain in place 180 degrees from the valve stem. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Sensors and Switches > Sensors and Switches - Steering and Suspension > Sensors and Switches - Wheels and Tires > Tire Pressure Sensor > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Page 1141 6. Place the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool on the LF tire sidewall opposite (180 degrees) from the valve stem. Press and release the test button on the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool. The horn will sound briefly to indicate that the tire pressure sensor has been recognized by the SJB. 7. Within 2 minutes of the horn sounding, place the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool on the RF tire sidewall opposite (180 degrees) from the valve stem and press and release the test button to train the RF tire pressure sensor. NOTE: Do not wait more than 2 minutes between training each sensor or the SJB will time out and the entire procedure must be repeated. 8. Repeat Step 7 for the RR and LR tires. The procedure is completed after the last tire has been trained. When the training procedure is complete, the message center (if equipped) will display TIRE TRAINING COMPLETE. For vehicles not equipped with a message center, successful completion of the training procedure will be verified by turning the ignition switch to the OFF position without the horn sounding. If the horn sounds twice when the switch is turned to the OFF position, the training procedure was not successful. 9. Using the scan tool, locate the updated TPMS sensor identifiers trained to the SJB and document them on the applicable warranty claim. NOTE: This step is required to clear DTC C2780, cause the SJB to exit the manufacturing mode and to make sure there are no other concerns with a newly programmed SJB. 10. If the sensors are being trained due to the installation of a new SJB, clear any DTCs and carry out the SJB On-Demand Self Test.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed.

The BPP switch provides a signal to the PCM indicating that the brakes are applied. The BPP switch is normally open and is mounted on the brake pedal support. Depending on the vehicle application the BPP switch can be hardwired as follows: - to the PCM supplying battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is applied. - to the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, or lighting control module (LCM), the BPP signal is then broadcast over the network to be received by the PCM. - to the ABS traction control/stability assist module. The ABS module interprets the BPP switch input along with other ABS inputs and generates an output called the driver brake application (DBA) signal. The DBA signal is then sent to the PCM and to other BPP signal users.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

PARK is a good position to check for intermittent open circuits (with scan tool monitoring TRD). ^ TR4, TR3A, TR2 and TR1 are all open in OVERDRIVE, so OVERDRIVE is a good position to check for shorts to ground. To determine the shorted components while observing TRD, unplug the TR and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present unplug the transmission harness and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present, then the short is in the PCM or vehicle harness. Remove the suspect circuit(s) wire terminal from the PCM connector. If the short is still present, then the PCM has an internal failure, otherwise the failure is in the vehicle harness.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Sensors and Switches > Sensors and Switches - Transmission and Drivetrain > Sensors and Switches - A/T > Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 1320 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,catalytic converter and muffler. - Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery.

The LF caster can be adjusted by loosening the lower control arm rearward nut to allow the lower arm to be moved in the slotted frame hole. Front toe is adjusted by the use of the front wheel spindle tie rods. The rear camber is adjusted by replacing the upper arm inboard flag nut with a non-flag nut to allow the arm to be adjusted in the slotted frame holes. The rear toe is adjusted through the use of the rear toe link cam bolt. Camber Negative and Positive Camber Camber is the vertical tilt of the wheel when viewed from the front. Camber can be positive or negative and has a direct effect on tire wear. Caster Caster Caster is the deviation from vertical of an imaginary line drawn through the ball joints when viewed from the side. The caster specifications will give the vehicle the best directional stability characteristics when loaded and driven. The caster setting is not related to tire wear.

Ride Height Front Ride Height Measurement Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Alignment > System Information > Specifications > Page 1393 Rear Ride Height Measurement Thrust Angle (Dogtracking) Thrust Angle (Dogtracking) Thrust angle (also known as dogtracking) is the condition in which the rear axle is not square to the chassis. Heavily crowned roads can give the illusion of incorrect thrust angle. Wander Wander is the tendency of the vehicle to require frequent, random left and right steering wheel corrections to maintain a straight path down a level road. Shimmy Shimmy, as observed by the driver, is large, consistent, rotational oscillations of the steering wheel resulting from large, side-to-side (lateral) tire/wheel movements. Shimmy is usually experienced near 64 km/h (40 mph), and can begin or be amplified when the tire contacts pot holes or irregularities in the road surface. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Alignment > System Information > Specifications > Page 1394 Nibble Sometimes confused with shimmy, nibble is a condition resulting from tire interaction with various road surfaces and observed by the driver as small rotational oscillations of the steering wheel. Poor Returnability/Sticky Steering Poor returnability and sticky steering is used to describe the poor return of the steering wheel to center after a turn or the steering correction is completed. Drift/Pull Pull is a tugging sensation, felt by the hands on the steering wheel, that must be overcome to keep the vehicle going straight. Drift describes what a vehicle with this condition does with hands off the steering wheel. ^ A vehicle-related drift/pull, on a flat road, will cause a consistent deviation from the straight-ahead path and require constant steering input in the opposite direction to counteract the effect. ^ Drift/pull may be induced by conditions external to the vehicle, such as wind or road camber.

It can be the result of a damaged or incorrectly aligned grooved pulley. To correct, determine the area where the noise comes from. Check each of the pulleys in that area with a straightedge to the crankshaft pulley. Look for accessory pulleys out of position in the fore/aft direction or at an angle to the straightedge. CAUTION: Do not apply any fluids or belt dressing to the accessory drive belt or pulleys. Drive belt squeal may be an intermittent or constant noise that occurs when the drive belt slips on an accessory pulley under certain conditions. A short intermittent squeal may occur during engine start-up and shut down or during very rapid engine acceleration and decelerations, such as: ^ wide open throttle 1-2 and 2-3 shifts or 2-3 and 3-4 back out shifts on automatic transmissions. ^ wide open throttle 1-2 and 2-3 shifts and any combination of rapid downshifting on manual transmissions. These special short-term transient events are expected, and are due to the higher system inertias required to meet the electrical and cooling demands on today's vehicle systems. Constant or reoccurring drive belt squeal can occur: ^ if the A/C discharge pressure goes above specifications: ^ the A/C system is overcharged. ^ the A/C condenser core airflow is blocked. ^ if the A/C off equalized pressure (the common discharged and suction pressure that occurs after several minutes) exceeds specifications. ^ if any of the accessories are damaged or have a worn or damaged bearing. All accessories should be rotatable by hand in the unloaded condition. If not, inspect the accessory. ^ if there is evidence of fluid contamination on the accessory drive belt. When the drive belt has been exposed to fluid contamination during vehicle operation, such as leaks from the power steering system, A/C system or cooling system, clean all pulleys with soap and water, rinse with clean water and install a new accessory drive belt. If the drive belt has been exposed to fluids in a localized area during routine vehicle service, such as replacement of hoses or fluids, the drive belt and pulleys should be washed with soap and water immediately (prior to starting the engine), and rinsed with clean water. ^ if the accessory drive belt is too long. A drive belt that is too long will allow the accessory drive belt tensioner arm to go all the way to the arm travel stop under certain load conditions, which will release tension to the drive belt. If the accessory drive belt tensioner indicator is outside the normal installation wear range window, install a new accessory drive belt. ^ NOTE: The accessory drive belt tensioner arm should rotate freely without binding. Install a new accessory drive belt tensioner if the drive belt tensioner is worn or damaged. Drive Belt - Incorrect Installation Drive Belt - Incorrect Installation CAUTION: Incorrect accessory drive belt installation will cause excessive drive belt wear and can cause the drive belt to come off the pulleys. Non-standard accessory drive belts can track differently or incorrectly. If an accessory drive belt tracks incorrectly, install a new accessory drive belt to avoid performance failure or loss of the drive belt. Incorrect Installation Incorrect Installation Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Drive Belt > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview > Page 1465 Correct Installation Correct Installation With the engine running, check accessory drive belt tracking on all pulleys. If the edge of the accessory drive belt rides beyond the edge of the pulleys, noise and premature wear will occur. Make sure the accessory drive belt rides correctly on the pulley. If an accessory drive belt tracking condition exists, proceed with the following: ^ Visually check the accessory drive belt tensioner for damage, especially the mounting pad surface. If the accessory drive belt tensioner is not installed correctly, the mounting surface pad will be out of position. This will result in chirp and squeal noises. ^ With the engine running, visually observe the grooves in the pulleys (not the pulley flanges or the pulley forward faces) for excessive wobble. Install new components as necessary. ^ Check all accessories, mounting brackets and the accessory drive belt tensioner for any interference that would prevent the component from mounting correctly. Correct any interference condition and recheck the accessory drive belt tracking. ^ Tighten all accessories, mounting brackets and accessory drive belt tensioner retaining hardware to specification. Recheck the accessory drive belt tracking. 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. With the engine off, check routing of the accessory drive belt. Refer to the illustrations under Description and Operation. 2. NOTE: The accessory drive belt tensioner spring is very strong and requires substantial force to release. Using a suitable, commercially available serpentine belt tensioner release tool, release the tension on the belt and detach the accessory drive belt in the area of the tensioner. 3. Using a suitable, commercially available serpentine belt tensioner release tool, move 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 tensioner spring. 4. Rotate the tensioner pulley by hand and check for a binding, contaminated or seized condition. Install a new accessory drive belt tensioner if necessary. 5. Inspect the area surrounding the accessory drive belt tensioner for oil leaks or contamination and repair any leaks. Install a new accessory drive belt tensioner as necessary. 6. If the accessory drive belt tensioner meets the above criteria, proceed to testing the tensioner dynamically. If the accessory drive belt tensioner does not meet the above criteria, install a new tensioner. Belt Tensioner - Dynamics Belt Tensioner - Dynamics The accessory drive belt tensioner can be checked dynamically as follows: 1. With the engine running, observe the accessory drive belt tensioner movement. The accessory drive tensioner should move (respond) when the air conditioning clutch cycles (if equipped), or when the engine is accelerated rapidly. If the accessory drive belt tensioner movement is excessive without air conditioning clutch cycling or engine acceleration, check belt rideout. Excessive belt rideout (uneven depth of grooves in the belt) can cause excessive accessory drive belt tensioner movement. Check rideout condition by installing a new belt. If excessive accessory drive belt tensioner movement still exists, install a new accessory drive belt tensioner.

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 Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) 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 1507 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.

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.

Using a suitable torque converter/fluid cooler cleaner, clean and backflush the transmission fluid cooler tubes. CAUTION: Do not use water-based cleaners, mineral spirits, brake cleaner or solvents that may contain acetone, xylene or heptane to clean and/or flush the transmission assembly, transmission components and the torque converter or transmission damage will occur. Use only clean transmission fluid designated for the transmission/converter being serviced. When internal wear or damage has occurred in the transmission, metal particles, clutch plate material or band material may have been carried into the transmission fluid cooler. These contaminants are a major cause of recurring transmission concerns and must be removed from the system before the transmission is put back in use. 1. Conduct backflushing with a suitable torque converter/transmission fluid cooler cleaner. Test the equipment to make sure that a vigorous fluid flow is present before proceeding. Install a new system filter if flow is weak or contaminated. 2. Remove and discard the in-line transmission fluid filter, if equipped. 3. To aid in attaching the cleaner to the transmission steel cooler lines, connect 2 additional rubber hoses to the transmission end of the steel transmission cooler lines as described. ^ Connect the cleaner tank pressure line to the steel transmission cooler return line (longest line). ^ Connect a tank return hose to the steel transmission cooler pressure line (shorter line). Place the outlet end of this hose in the solvent tank reservoir. 4. Turn on the pump and allow the transmission fluid to circulate a minimum of 5 minutes (cycling switch on and off will help dislodge contaminants in the cooler system). 5. Switch off the pump and disconnect the pressure hose from the transmission cooler return line. 6. Use compressed air to blow out the cooler(s) and lines (blow air into the transmission cooler return line) until all the fluid is removed. 7. Remove the rubber return hose from the remaining steel cooler line.

It is not necessary to add additional dye to the refrigerant system before diagnosing leaks, even if a significant amount of refrigerant has been removed from the system. Replacement suction accumulators are shipped with a fluorescent dye "wafer" included in the desiccant bag which will dissolve after approximately 30 minutes of continued A/C operation. It is not necessary to add dye after flushing or filtering the refrigerant system because a new suction accumulator is installed as part of the flushing or filtering procedure. Additional refrigerant system dye should only be added if more than 50% of the refrigerant system lubricant capacity has been lost due to a fitting separation, hose rupture or other damage.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams.

It will be necessary to wake them up so they will transmit the latest tire pressure information to the Smart Junction Box (SJB). NOTE: The tire pressure sensor training procedure must be done on a single vehicle, in an area without radio frequency noise and at least 1 m (3 ft) away from other vehicles equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). Radio frequency noise is generated by electrical motors and appliance operation, cellular telephones, remote transmitters, power inverters and portable entertainment equipment. NOTE: If a sensor does not respond to the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool, attempt to activate the same sensor with the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool. If the sensor still does not respond, move the vehicle to rotate the wheels at least one-fourth of a turn and attempt to activate the same sensor again. NOTE: The SJB has a 2-minute time limit between sensor responses. If the SJB does not recognize any 1 of the 4 tire pressure sensors during this time limit, the horn will sound twice and the message center (if equipped) will display TIRE NOT TRAINED REPEAT and the entire procedure must be repeated. NOTE: For vehicles with different front and rear tire pressures (such as the E-Series and certain F-Series), the tire pressure sensors must be trained following a tire rotation. Failure to train the sensors will cause the TPMS indicator to illuminate. For vehicles with the same tire pressure for front and rear tires, tire rotation will not affect the system. 1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position, then press and release the brake pedal. 2. Cycle the ignition switch from the OFF position to the RUN position 3 times, ending in the RUN position. 3. Press and release the brake pedal. 4. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position. 5. Turn the ignition switch from the OFF position to the RUN position 3 times, ending in the RUN position. - The horn will sound once and the TPMS indicator will flash if the training mode has been entered successfully. If equipped, the message center will display TRAIN LF TIRE. NOTE: It may take up to 6 seconds to activate a tire pressure sensor. During this time, the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool must remain in place 180 degrees from the valve stem. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Wheels and Tires > Sensors and Switches - Wheels and Tires > Tire Pressure Sensor > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Page 1786 6. Place the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool on the LF tire sidewall opposite (180 degrees) from the valve stem. Press and release the test button on the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool.

Within 2 minutes of the horn sounding, place the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool on the RF tire sidewall opposite (180 degrees) from the valve stem and press and release the test button to train the RF tire pressure sensor. NOTE: Do not wait more than 2 minutes between training each sensor or the SJB will time out and the entire procedure must be repeated. 8. Repeat Step 7 for the RR and LR tires. The procedure is completed after the last tire has been trained. When the training procedure is complete, the message center (if equipped) will display TIRE TRAINING COMPLETE. For vehicles not equipped with a message center, successful completion of the training procedure will be verified by turning the ignition switch to the OFF position without the horn sounding. If the horn sounds twice when the switch is turned to the OFF position, the training procedure was not successful. 9. Using the scan tool, locate the updated TPMS sensor identifiers trained to the SJB and document them on the applicable warranty claim. NOTE: This step is required to clear DTC C2780, cause the SJB to exit the manufacturing mode and to make sure there are no other concerns with a newly programmed SJB. 10. If the sensors are being trained due to the installation of a new SJB, clear any DTCs and carry out the SJB On-Demand Self Test.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System Wheel Hub: Testing and Inspection Driveline System Inspection and Verification Certain axle and driveline symptoms are also common to the engine, transmission, wheel bearings, tires and other parts of the vehicle. For this reason, be sure that the cause of the concern is in the axle before disassembling, adjusting or repairing the axle. Refer to Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. Certain driveshaft vibration symptoms are common to the front engine accessory drive (FEAD), the engine, transmission or tires. Be sure the cause of the concern is the driveshaft before repairing or installing a new driveshaft. Refer to Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. Noise Acceptability A gear-driven unit will produce a certain amount of noise. Some noise is acceptable and audible at certain speeds or under various driving conditions, such as a newly paved blacktop road. Slight noise is not detrimental to the operation of the axle and is considered normal. Universal Joint (U-Joint) Inspection Place the vehicle on a frame hoist and rotate the driveshaft by hand. Check for rough operation or seized U-joints. Install a new U-joint if it shows signs of seizure, excessive wear or incorrect seating. Analysis of Leakage Clean up the leaking area enough to identify the exact source. An axle leak can be caused by: ^ Axle lubricant level is too high ^ Worn or damaged axle shaft seals or differential seals ^ Differential housing is cracked ^ Flange yoke seal is worn or damaged ^ Pinion flange is scored or damaged ^ Axle cover is not sealed ^ Vent is plugged Repair the axle as necessary. Make sure the axle lubricant is at the correct level. Axle Vent NOTE: If a plugged vent cannot be cleared, install a new vent. NOTE: If the vent is removed from the housing for any reason, a new vent must be installed. A plugged vent will cause excessive seal lip wear due to internal pressure buildup. If a leak occurs, check the vent. Make sure the vent hose is not kinked. Remove the hose from the vent nipple and clear the hose of any foreign material. While the hose is removed, pass a length of mechanic's wire or a small diameter Allen wrench in and out of the vent to clean it. Connect the hose when done. Flange Yoke Seal Leaks at the axle drive pinion seal originate for these reasons: ^ The seal is not correctly installed ^ A poor quality seal journal surface Any damage to the seal bore (dings, dents, gouges or other imperfections) will distort the seal casing and allow leakage past the outer edge of the axle drive pinion seal. The axle drive pinion seal can be torn, cut or gouged if it is not installed carefully. The spring that holds the axle drive pinion seal against the pinion flange can be knocked out, which can allow leakage past the lip. The rubber lips can occasionally become hard (like plastic) with cracks at the oil lip contact point. The contact point on the pinion flange may blacken, indicating excessive heat. Marks, nicks, gouges or rough surface texture on the seal journal of the pinion flange will also cause leaks. A new pinion flange must be installed if any of these conditions exist. Metal chips or sand trapped at the sealing lip can also cause oil leaks. This can cause a wear groove on the pinion flange and heavy pinion seal wear. When a seal leak occurs, install a new seal and check the vent and the vent hose to make sure they are clean and free of foreign material. Analysis of Vibration WARNING: An all-wheel drive (AWD) vehicle will always have all wheels (on both axles) driving. If only one wheel/axle is raised off the floor and the axle is driven by the engine, the wheel/axle on the floor could drive the vehicle off the stand or jack. Be sure all wheels are off the floor. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 1871 Few vibration conditions are caused by the front or rear axle. For a vibration concern, follow the diagnosis procedure in Vehicle/Testing and Inspection unless there is a good reason to suspect the axle. Tires WARNING: Do not balance the wheels and tires while they are mounted on the vehicle. Possible tire disintegration or differential failure could result, causing personal injury or extensive component damage. Use an off-vehicle wheel and tire balancer only. Most vibration is caused by tires, driveline angle or driveline imbalance. Vibration is a concern with modern, high-mileage tires if they are not "true" both radially and laterally. They are more susceptible to vibration around the limits of radial and lateral runout of the tire and wheel assembly. They also require more accurate balancing. Wheel and tire runout checks, truing and balancing are normally done before axle inspection. Driveline Imbalance Driveline imbalance can be caused by excessive looseness in the driveshaft, damaged driveshaft tubing, looseness or high runout at the driveshaft attachments (axle and transfer case flanges). Excessive looseness in the driveshaft can be caused by CV joint or universal joint wear, as well as loose fitting slip-yoke splines. Inspect and install new driveshaft components as necessary. Driveline Angle Driveline Angle Driveline angularity is the angular relationship between the engine crankshaft, the driveshaft and the rear axle pinion. Some of the factors determining driveline angularity include ride height, rear spring and engine mounts. An incorrect driveline (pinion) angle can often be detected by examining the driving condition in which the vibration occurs. ^ A vibration during coastdown, from 72 to 56 km/h (45 to 35 mph), is often caused by an excessive U-joint angle at the axle (pinion nose downward). ^ A vibration during acceleration, from 56 to 72 km/h (35 to 45 mph), may indicate an excessive U-joint angle at the axle (pinion nose upward). When these conditions exist, check the driveline angles. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 1872 Universal Joint (U-Joint) Wear Place the vehicle on a frame hoist and rotate the driveshaft by hand. Check for rough operation or seized U-joints. Install a new U-joint if it shows signs of seizure, excessive wear or incorrect seating. Wheel Hub Bolt Circle Runout NOTE: The brake discs must be removed to carry out all runout measurements. 1. Position the special tool on the wheel hub bolt, as close to the hub face as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way. 2. Rotate the hub until the next bolt is contacted. Record the measurement and continue until each bolt is checked. The difference between the maximum and minimum contact readings will be the total wheel hub bolt circle runout. The runout must not exceed 0.38 mm (0.015 inch). Pilot Runout 1. Position the special tools on the pilot, as close to the hub as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way. 2. Rotate the hub one full turn and note the maximum and minimum readings. The difference between the maximum and minimum readings will be the total pilot runout. Pilot runout must not exceed 0.15 mm (0.006 inch). Wheel Hub Runout 1. Position the special tool on the wheel hub, as close to the outer edge as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way. 2. Rotate the hub one full turn and note the maximum and minimum readings. The difference between the maximum and minimum readings will be the total wheel hub runout. The runout must not exceed 0.127 mm (0.005 inch). Drive Pinion Stem and Pinion Flange Check the pinion flange runout when all other checks have failed to show the cause of the vibration. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 1873 One cause of excessive pinion flange runout is incorrect installation of the axle drive pinion seal. Check to determine if the spring on the seal lip has been dislodged. Halfshafts NOTE: Constant velocity (CV) joints must not be installed unless disassembly and inspection reveals unusual wear. NOTE: While inspecting the boots, watch for indentations ("dimples") in the boot convolutions. Indentations must be removed. ^ Inspect the boots for evidence of cracks, tears or splits. ^ Inspect the underbody for any indication of grease splatter near the boots outboard and inboard locations. This is an indication of boot/clamp damage. Axle Noise NOTE: Before disassembling the axle to diagnose and correct gear noise, eliminate the tires, exhaust, trim items, roof racks and wheel bearings as possible causes. Follow the diagnostic procedures in Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. The noises described as follows usually have specific causes that can be diagnosed by observation as the unit is disassembled. The initial clues are the type of noise heard during the road test. Gear Howl and Whine Howling or whining of the ring gear and pinion is due to an incorrect gear pattern, gear damage or incorrect bearing preload. Bearing Whine Bearing whine is a high-pitched sound similar to a whistle. It is usually caused by worn/damaged pinion bearings, which are operating at driveshaft speed. Bearing noise occurs at all driving speeds. This distinguishes it from gear whine which usually comes and goes as speed changes. As noted, pinion bearings make a high-pitched, whistling noise, usually at all speeds. If however there is only one pinion bearing that is worn/damaged, the noise may vary in different driving phases. New pinion bearings must not be installed unless they are scored or damaged, or there is a specific pinion bearing noise. A worn/damaged bearing will normally be obvious at disassembly. Examine the large end of the rollers for wear. If the pinion bearings original blend radius has worn to a sharp edge, a new pinion bearing must be installed. A wheel bearing noise can be mistaken for a pinion bearing noise. On rear wheel drive (RWD) vehicles, check the wheel bearing for a spalled cup and spalled/damaged rollers. Install a new wheel bearing if any of these concerns are detected. On four wheel drive (4WD) vehicles, check the wheel bearing for rotating smoothness and end play. Chuckle Chuckle that occurs on the coast driving phase is usually caused by excessive clearance between the differential gear hub and the differential case bore. Damage to a gear tooth on the coast side can cause a noise identical to a chuckle. A very small tooth nick or ridge on the edge of a tooth can cause the noise. Clean the gear tooth nick or ridge with a small grinding wheel. If the damaged area is larger than 3.2 mm (1/8 inch), install a new gearset. To check the ring gear and pinion, remove as much lubricant as possible from the gears with clean solvent. Wipe the gears dry or blow them dry with compressed air. Look for scored or damaged teeth. Also look for cracks or other damage. If either gear is scored or damaged badly, a new ring gear and pinion must be installed. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 1874 If metal has broken loose, the axle housing must be cleaned to remove particles that will cause damage. At this time, any other damaged parts in the axle housing must also be installed new. Knock Knock, which can occur in all driving phases, has several causes including damaged teeth or gearset. 1. NOTE: Measure the end play with a Dial Indicator with Bracketry and not by feel. Knock is also caused by excessive end play in the axle shafts. Up to 0.762 mm (0.030 inch) is allowed in semi-float axles. The frequency of the knock will be less because the axle shaft speed is slower than the driveshaft. Clunk Clunk is a metallic noise heard when the automatic transmission is engaged in REVERSE or DRIVE. The noise can also occur when throttle is applied or released. It is caused by backlash somewhere in the driveline or loose suspension components; it is felt or heard in the axle. Additionally, clunk may be heard upon initial drive-away. This occurs as engine torque shifts vehicle weight, forcing changes in driveline angles which prevent the driveshaft slip-yoke from sliding on the output shaft. To correct this condition, lubricate the slip-yoke splines. Bearing Rumble Bearing rumble sounds like marbles being tumbled. This condition is usually caused by a worn/damaged wheel bearing. The lower pitch is because the wheel bearing turns at only about 1/3 of the driveshaft speed. Wheel bearing noise also may be high-pitched, similar to gear noise, but will be evident in all 4 driving modes.

A gear driven unit will produce a certain amount of noise. Some noise is acceptable and audible at certain speeds or under various driving conditions. Certain conditions, such as road conditions and weather, will amplify normal vehicle noise. Certain rear axle and driveline concern symptoms are also common to the engine, transmission, rear wheel bearings and tire. For this reason, be sure the cause of the concern is in the axle before repairing or installing any axle components. This is a guide to diagnose a driveline concern: ^ Verify and document the customer concern. ^ Carry out a preliminary investigation. ^ Road test the vehicle. ^ Find the cause of the problem. ^ Inspect the components. 1. Verify and document the customer concern. 1 When was it first noticed? 2 Did it appear suddenly or gradually? 3 Did anything unusual occur that would coincide with it or precede it? 4 Has the driveline system been repaired before or new components installed? ^ Check the vehicle service record. Note any repairs other than driveline, such as brakes or suspension. 5 Are there any special conditions that will affect the concern or will alter the concern? For example, ^ road speed. ^ type of road. ^ drive mode. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 1876 ^ temperature. ^ vehicle loaded or unloaded. 6 Is the condition constant or intermittent? Can the concern be duplicated at any time? 7 Check for TSBs. 2. NOTE: If the inspection reveals an obvious concern, repair the vehicle. Do a preliminary investigation. Visually inspect for obvious signs of damage. 1 Inspect the driveshaft: ^ for build up of any foreign material. ^ for damage, such as a bent tube or missing weights. ^ U-joints, CV joints or flex couplers for wear or damage. 2 Inspect the axle: ^ for signs of leakage at the drain or fill plug, differential seal, vent or halfshaft seals. a plugged vent or vent tube will cause a leak. ^ for damage, such as cracks, bent halfshafts or dented rear cover. ^ for missing fasteners. 3 Inspect other suspect components/systems: ^ inspect the suspension for broken springs, damaged shock absorbers and worn suspension bushings. ^ inspect the rear brake components - lines, cables and calipers. ^ inspect the tires; are they in good condition and do they match? 3. NOTE: A road test is necessary for any customer concern of noise or vibration. Road test the vehicle. 1 During the road test, use these driving methods to diagnose the problem. Is the concern most noticeable: ^ from a stop? ^ on shifts from REVERSE to DRIVE? ^ on turns? sweeping type turn. - tight turn (to the stop). ^ in DRIVE? accelerating the vehicle, definite throttle depression, applying engine torque. ^ in CRUISE? - maintaining a constant speed with the throttle applied. ^ in COAST? decelerating with the throttle closed. 2 Record when the concern occurs. Write down the kph (mph) range at which the noise/vibration occurs. 4. Find the cause of the problem. 1 Compare the inspection and road test results with the chart. 2 Use this diagnostic routine chart to identify the probable cause and know what corrective actions should be taken to repair the component/vehicle and to prevent a reoccurrence.

NOTE: If the conclusion of the road test points to an axle assembly section (ring and pinion or differential case) concern, carry out a visual inspection of the rear axle. Inspect the axle components. 1 Remove the axle assembly. 2 Remove the differential housing cover. Drain the axle lubricant through a white cloth. Check the fluid for: ^ any foreign material. ^ metal particles. ^ burnt odor. 3 NOTE: When inspecting the axle, do not clean the components immediately. Cleaning may remove diagnostic evidence. Inspect the axle components. ^ Look for: loose fasteners. - notches or visible steps or grooves created by wear. - pitting or cracking along gear contact lines. - scuffing or deformations. - discolorations. - nicks or ridges on gear teeth. ^ Clean the axle components for inspection. Remove as much lubricant as possible with clean solvent. Wipe the components or blow them dry with compressed air. ^ Re-inspect for: Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 1878 - loose fasteners. - notches or visible steps or grooves created by wear. - pitting or cracking along gear contact lines. - scuffing or deformations. - discolorations. - nicks or ridges on gear teeth. ^ Check backlash and carry out a ring and pinion pattern test.

There are 4 types of VCT systems. Exhaust phase shifting (EPS) system - the exhaust cam is the active cam being retarded. - Intake phase shifting (IPS) system - the intake cam is the active cam being advanced. - Dual equal phase shifting (DEPS) system - both intake and exhaust cams are phase shifted and equally advanced or retarded. - Dual independent phase shifting (DIPS) system - where both the intake and exhaust cams are shifted independently. All systems have 4 operational modes: idle, part throttle, wide open throttle (WOT), and default mode. At idle and low engine speeds with closed throttle, the powertrain control module (PCM) determines the phase angle based on air flow, engine oil temperature and engine coolant temperature. At part and wide open throttle the PCM determines the phase angle based on engine RPM, load, and throttle position. VCT systems provide reduced emissions and enhanced engine power, fuel economy and idle quality. IPS systems also have the added benefit of improved torque. In addition, some VCT system applications can eliminate the need for an external exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system. The elimination of the EGR system is accomplished by controlling the overlap time between the intake valve opening and exhaust valve closing. Currently, both the IPS and DEPS systems are used. Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) System VCT System The VCT system consists of an electric hydraulic positioning control solenoid, a camshaft position (CMP) sensor, and a trigger wheel. The CMP trigger wheel has a number of equally spaced teeth equal to the number (n) of cylinders on a bank plus one extra tooth (n+1). Four cylinder and V8 engines use a CMP 4+1 tooth trigger wheel. V6 engines use a CMP 3+1 tooth trigger wheel. The extra tooth placed between the equally spaced teeth represents the CMP signal for that bank. A crankshaft position sensor (CKP) provides the PCM with crankshaft positioning information in 10 degree increments. 1. The PCM receives input signals from the intake air temperature (IAT) sensor, engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor, engine oil temperature (EOT) sensor, CMP, throttle position (TP) sensor, mass air flow (MAF) sensor, and CKP to determine the operating conditions of the engine. At idle and low engine speeds with closed throttle, the PCM controls the camshaft position based on ECT, EOT, IAT, and MAF. During part and wide open throttle, the camshaft position is determined by engine RPM, load and throttle position. The VCT system does not operate until the engine is at normal operating temperature. 2. The VCT system is enabled by the PCM when the correct conditions are met. 3. The CKP signal is used as a reference for CMP positioning. 4. The VCT solenoid valve is an integral part of the VCT system. The solenoid valve controls the flow of engine oil in the VCT actuator assembly. As the PCM controls the duty cycle of the solenoid valve, oil pressure/flow advances or retards the cam timing. Duty cycles near 0% or 100% represent rapid movement of the camshaft. Retaining a fixed camshaft position is accomplished by dithering (oscillating) the solenoid valve duty cycle. The PCM calculates and determines the desired camshaft position. It continually updates the VCT solenoid duty cycle until the desired position is achieved. A difference between the desired and actual camshaft position represents a position error in the PCM VCT control loop. The PCM disables the VCT and places the camshaft in a default position if a concern is detected. A related DTC is also set when the concern is detected. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Engine > Actuators and Solenoids - Engine > Variable Valve Timing Actuator > Component Information > Diagrams > Page 1906 5. When the VCT solenoid is energized, engine oil is allowed to flow to the VCT actuator assembly which advances or retards the camshaft timing. One half of the VCT actuator is coupled to the camshaft and the other half is connected to the timing chain. Oil chambers between the 2 halves couple the camshaft to the timing chain. When the flow of oil is shifted from one side of the chamber to the other, the differential change in oil pressure forces the camshaft to rotate in either an advance or retard position depending on the oil flow.

There are 4 types of VCT systems. Exhaust phase shifting (EPS) system - the exhaust cam is the active cam being retarded. - Intake phase shifting (IPS) system - the intake cam is the active cam being advanced. - Dual equal phase shifting (DEPS) system - both intake and exhaust cams are phase shifted and equally advanced or retarded. - Dual independent phase shifting (DIPS) system - where both the intake and exhaust cams are shifted independently. All systems have 4 operational modes: idle, part throttle, wide open throttle (WOT), and default mode. At idle and low engine speeds with closed throttle, the powertrain control module (PCM) determines the phase angle based on air flow, engine oil temperature and engine coolant temperature. At part and wide open throttle the PCM determines the phase angle based on engine RPM, load, and throttle position. VCT systems provide reduced emissions and enhanced engine power, fuel economy and idle quality. IPS systems also have the added benefit of improved torque. In addition, some VCT system applications can eliminate the need for an external exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system. The elimination of the EGR system is accomplished by controlling the overlap time between the intake valve opening and exhaust valve closing. Currently, both the IPS and DEPS systems are used. Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) System VCT System The VCT system consists of an electric hydraulic positioning control solenoid, a camshaft position (CMP) sensor, and a trigger wheel. The CMP trigger wheel has a number of equally spaced teeth equal to the number (n) of cylinders on a bank plus one extra tooth (n+1). Four cylinder and V8 engines use a CMP 4+1 tooth trigger wheel. V6 engines use a CMP 3+1 tooth trigger wheel. The extra tooth placed between the equally spaced teeth represents the CMP signal for that bank. A crankshaft position sensor (CKP) provides the PCM with crankshaft positioning information in 10 degree increments. 1. The PCM receives input signals from the intake air temperature (IAT) sensor, engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor, engine oil temperature (EOT) sensor, CMP, throttle position (TP) sensor, mass air flow (MAF) sensor, and CKP to determine the operating conditions of the engine. At idle and low engine speeds with closed throttle, the PCM controls the camshaft position based on ECT, EOT, IAT, and MAF. During part and wide open throttle, the camshaft position is determined by engine RPM, load and throttle position. The VCT system does not operate until the engine is at normal operating temperature. 2. The VCT system is enabled by the PCM when the correct conditions are met. 3. The CKP signal is used as a reference for CMP positioning. 4. The VCT solenoid valve is an integral part of the VCT system. The solenoid valve controls the flow of engine oil in the VCT actuator assembly. As the PCM controls the duty cycle of the solenoid valve, oil pressure/flow advances or retards the cam timing. Duty cycles near 0% or 100% represent rapid movement of the camshaft. Retaining a fixed camshaft position is accomplished by dithering (oscillating) the solenoid valve duty cycle. The PCM calculates and determines the desired camshaft position. It continually updates the VCT solenoid duty cycle until the desired position is achieved. A difference between the desired and actual camshaft position represents a position error in the PCM VCT control loop. The PCM disables the VCT and places the camshaft in a default position if a concern is detected. A related DTC is also set when the concern is detected.

When the VCT solenoid is energized, engine oil is allowed to flow to the VCT actuator assembly which advances or retards the camshaft timing. One half of the VCT actuator is coupled to the camshaft and the other half is connected to the timing chain. Oil chambers between the 2 halves couple the camshaft to the timing chain. When the flow of oil is shifted from one side of the chamber to the other, the differential change in oil pressure forces the camshaft to rotate in either an advance or retard position depending on the oil flow.

NOTE: Up to 15 cracks in a rib over a distance of 100 mm (4.0 inch) can be considered acceptable. If damage exceeds the acceptable limit or any chunks are found to be missing from the ribs, a new belt must be installed. Check the belt for cracks. Up to 15 cracks in a rib over a distance of 100 mm (4.0 inch) can be considered acceptable. If cracks exceed this standard, install a new belt. 6. The condition of the V-ribbed drive belt should be compared against the illustration and appropriate action taken. 1 Small scattered deposits of rubber material. This is not a concern, therefore, installation of a new belt is not required. 2 Longer deposit areas building up to 50% of the rib height. This is not considered a concern but it can result in excessive noise. If noise is apparent, install a new belt. 3 Heavy deposits building up along the grooves resulting in a possible noise and belt stability concern. If heavy deposits are apparent, install a new belt. V-Ribbed Serpentine Belt With Piling NOTE: Piling is an excessive buildup in the V-grooves of the belt.

It can be the result of a damaged or incorrectly aligned grooved pulley. To correct, determine the area where the noise comes from. Check each of the pulleys in that area with a straightedge to the crankshaft pulley. Look for accessory pulleys out of position in the fore/aft direction or at an angle to the straightedge. CAUTION: Do not apply any fluids or belt dressing to the accessory drive belt or pulleys. Drive belt squeal may be an intermittent or constant noise that occurs when the drive belt slips on an accessory pulley under certain conditions. A short intermittent squeal may occur during engine start-up and shut down or during very rapid engine acceleration and decelerations, such as: ^ wide open throttle 1-2 and 2-3 shifts or 2-3 and 3-4 back out shifts on automatic transmissions. ^ wide open throttle 1-2 and 2-3 shifts and any combination of rapid downshifting on manual transmissions. These special short-term transient events are expected, and are due to the higher system inertias required to meet the electrical and cooling demands on today's vehicle systems. Constant or reoccurring drive belt squeal can occur: ^ if the A/C discharge pressure goes above specifications: ^ the A/C system is overcharged. ^ the A/C condenser core airflow is blocked. ^ if the A/C off equalized pressure (the common discharged and suction pressure that occurs after several minutes) exceeds specifications. ^ if any of the accessories are damaged or have a worn or damaged bearing. All accessories should be rotatable by hand in the unloaded condition. If not, inspect the accessory. ^ if there is evidence of fluid contamination on the accessory drive belt. When the drive belt has been exposed to fluid contamination during vehicle operation, such as leaks from the power steering system, A/C system or cooling system, clean all pulleys with soap and water, rinse with clean water and install a new accessory drive belt. If the drive belt has been exposed to fluids in a localized area during routine vehicle service, such as replacement of hoses or fluids, the drive belt and pulleys should be washed with soap and water immediately (prior to starting the engine), and rinsed with clean water. ^ if the accessory drive belt is too long. A drive belt that is too long will allow the accessory drive belt tensioner arm to go all the way to the arm travel stop under certain load conditions, which will release tension to the drive belt. If the accessory drive belt tensioner indicator is outside the normal installation wear range window, install a new accessory drive belt. ^ NOTE: The accessory drive belt tensioner arm should rotate freely without binding. Install a new accessory drive belt tensioner if the drive belt tensioner is worn or damaged. Drive Belt - Incorrect Installation Drive Belt - Incorrect Installation CAUTION: Incorrect accessory drive belt installation will cause excessive drive belt wear and can cause the drive belt to come off the pulleys. Non-standard accessory drive belts can track differently or incorrectly. If an accessory drive belt tracks incorrectly, install a new accessory drive belt to avoid performance failure or loss of the drive belt. Incorrect Installation Incorrect Installation Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Engine > Drive Belts, Mounts, Brackets and Accessories > Drive Belt > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview > Page 2076 Correct Installation Correct Installation With the engine running, check accessory drive belt tracking on all pulleys. If the edge of the accessory drive belt rides beyond the edge of the pulleys, noise and premature wear will occur. Make sure the accessory drive belt rides correctly on the pulley. If an accessory drive belt tracking condition exists, proceed with the following: ^ Visually check the accessory drive belt tensioner for damage, especially the mounting pad surface. If the accessory drive belt tensioner is not installed correctly, the mounting surface pad will be out of position. This will result in chirp and squeal noises. ^ With the engine running, visually observe the grooves in the pulleys (not the pulley flanges or the pulley forward faces) for excessive wobble. Install new components as necessary. ^ Check all accessories, mounting brackets and the accessory drive belt tensioner for any interference that would prevent the component from mounting correctly. Correct any interference condition and recheck the accessory drive belt tracking. ^ Tighten all accessories, mounting brackets and accessory drive belt tensioner retaining hardware to specification. Recheck the accessory drive belt tracking. 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. With the engine off, check routing of the accessory drive belt. Refer to the illustrations under Description and Operation. 2. NOTE: The accessory drive belt tensioner spring is very strong and requires substantial force to release. Using a suitable, commercially available serpentine belt tensioner release tool, release the tension on the belt and detach the accessory drive belt in the area of the tensioner. 3. Using a suitable, commercially available serpentine belt tensioner release tool, move 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 tensioner spring. 4. Rotate the tensioner pulley by hand and check for a binding, contaminated or seized condition. Install a new accessory drive belt tensioner if necessary. 5. Inspect the area surrounding the accessory drive belt tensioner for oil leaks or contamination and repair any leaks. Install a new accessory drive belt tensioner as necessary. 6. If the accessory drive belt tensioner meets the above criteria, proceed to testing the tensioner dynamically. If the accessory drive belt tensioner does not meet the above criteria, install a new tensioner. Belt Tensioner - Dynamics Belt Tensioner - Dynamics The accessory drive belt tensioner can be checked dynamically as follows: 1. With the engine running, observe the accessory drive belt tensioner movement. The accessory drive tensioner should move (respond) when the air conditioning clutch cycles (if equipped), or when the engine is accelerated rapidly. If the accessory drive belt tensioner movement is excessive without air conditioning clutch cycling or engine acceleration, check belt rideout. Excessive belt rideout (uneven depth of grooves in the belt) can cause excessive accessory drive belt tensioner movement. Check rideout condition by installing a new belt. If excessive accessory drive belt tensioner movement still exists, install a new accessory drive belt tensioner.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes 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 sensor measures the temperature of the engine oil. The sensor is typically threaded into the engine oil lubrication system. The PCM can use the EOT sensor input to determine the following: - On variable camshaft timing (VCT) applications the EOT input is used to adjust the VCT control gains and logic for camshaft timing. - The PCM can use EOT sensor input in conjunction with other PCM inputs to determine oil degradation. - The PCM can use EOT sensor input to initiate a soft engine shutdown. To prevent engine damage from occurring as a result of high oil temperatures, the PCM has the ability to initiate a soft engine shutdown. Whenever engine RPM exceeds a calibrated level for a certain period of time, the PCM begins reducing power by disabling engine cylinders.

There are 4 types of VCT systems. Exhaust phase shifting (EPS) system - the exhaust cam is the active cam being retarded. - Intake phase shifting (IPS) system - the intake cam is the active cam being advanced. - Dual equal phase shifting (DEPS) system - both intake and exhaust cams are phase shifted and equally advanced or retarded. - Dual independent phase shifting (DIPS) system - where both the intake and exhaust cams are shifted independently. All systems have 4 operational modes: idle, part throttle, wide open throttle (WOT), and default mode. At idle and low engine speeds with closed throttle, the powertrain control module (PCM) determines the phase angle based on air flow, engine oil temperature and engine coolant temperature. At part and wide open throttle the PCM determines the phase angle based on engine RPM, load, and throttle position. VCT systems provide reduced emissions and enhanced engine power, fuel economy and idle quality. IPS systems also have the added benefit of improved torque. In addition, some VCT system applications can eliminate the need for an external exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system. The elimination of the EGR system is accomplished by controlling the overlap time between the intake valve opening and exhaust valve closing. Currently, both the IPS and DEPS systems are used. Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) System VCT System The VCT system consists of an electric hydraulic positioning control solenoid, a camshaft position (CMP) sensor, and a trigger wheel. The CMP trigger wheel has a number of equally spaced teeth equal to the number (n) of cylinders on a bank plus one extra tooth (n+1). Four cylinder and V8 engines use a CMP 4+1 tooth trigger wheel. V6 engines use a CMP 3+1 tooth trigger wheel. The extra tooth placed between the equally spaced teeth represents the CMP signal for that bank. A crankshaft position sensor (CKP) provides the PCM with crankshaft positioning information in 10 degree increments. 1. The PCM receives input signals from the intake air temperature (IAT) sensor, engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor, engine oil temperature (EOT) sensor, CMP, throttle position (TP) sensor, mass air flow (MAF) sensor, and CKP to determine the operating conditions of the engine. At idle and low engine speeds with closed throttle, the PCM controls the camshaft position based on ECT, EOT, IAT, and MAF. During part and wide open throttle, the camshaft position is determined by engine RPM, load and throttle position. The VCT system does not operate until the engine is at normal operating temperature. 2. The VCT system is enabled by the PCM when the correct conditions are met. 3. The CKP signal is used as a reference for CMP positioning. 4. The VCT solenoid valve is an integral part of the VCT system. The solenoid valve controls the flow of engine oil in the VCT actuator assembly. As the PCM controls the duty cycle of the solenoid valve, oil pressure/flow advances or retards the cam timing. Duty cycles near 0% or 100% represent rapid movement of the camshaft. Retaining a fixed camshaft position is accomplished by dithering (oscillating) the solenoid valve duty cycle. The PCM calculates and determines the desired camshaft position. It continually updates the VCT solenoid duty cycle until the desired position is achieved. A difference between the desired and actual camshaft position represents a position error in the PCM VCT control loop. The PCM disables the VCT and places the camshaft in a default position if a concern is detected. A related DTC is also set when the concern is detected. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Engine > Timing Components > Variable Valve Timing > Variable Valve Timing Actuator > Component Information > Diagrams > Page 2221 5. When the VCT solenoid is energized, engine oil is allowed to flow to the VCT actuator assembly which advances or retards the camshaft timing. One half of the VCT actuator is coupled to the camshaft and the other half is connected to the timing chain. Oil chambers between the 2 halves couple the camshaft to the timing chain. When the flow of oil is shifted from one side of the chamber to the other, the differential change in oil pressure forces the camshaft to rotate in either an advance or retard position depending on the oil flow.

For variable speed electric fan(s): Edge/MKX, Five Hundred/Freestyle/Montego, Fusion/Milan/MKZ, Crown Victoria/Grand Marquis, Town Car: FCV Duty Cycle Output From PCM (Negative Duty Cycle) The PCM controls the fan speed and operation using a duty cycle output on the fan control variable (FCV) circuit. The fan controller (located at or integral to the engine cooling fan assembly) receives the FCV command and operates the cooling fan at the speed requested (by varying the power applied to the fan motor).

If the cooling fan clutch is moving at a relatively low speed, the sensor produces a signal with a low frequency. As the cooling fan clutch speed increases, the sensor generates a signal with a higher frequency. The powertrain control module (PCM) uses the frequency signal generated by the FSS as a feedback for closed loop control of the cooling fan clutch.

Once viscous fluid is in the working chamber, shearing of the fluid results in fan rotation. The cooling fan clutch actuator valve is activated with a pulse width modulated (PWM) output signal from the PCM. By opening and closing the fluid port valve, the PCM can control the cooling fan clutch speed. The cooling fan clutch speed is measured by a Hall-effect sensor and is monitored by the PCM during closed loop operation. The PCM optimizes fan speed based on engine coolant temperature (ECT), engine oil temperature (EOT), transmission fluid temperature (TFT), intake air temperature (IAT), or air conditioning requirements. When an increased demand for fan speed is requested for vehicle cooling, the PCM monitors the fan speed through the Hall-effect sensor. If a fan speed increase is required, the PCM outputs the PWM signal to the fluid port, providing the required fan speed increase.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes 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 PCM uses the ECT input for fuel control and for cooling fan control. There are 3 types of ECT sensors, threaded, push-in, and twist-lock. The ECT sensor is located in an engine coolant passage.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature increases., and the resistance 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. The CHT sensor is installed in the 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 initiates a fail-safe cooling strategy based on information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system concern 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.

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 Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Cooling System > Heater Hose > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Customer Interest for Heater Hose: > 06-21-19 > Oct > 06 > A/C - Heater Core Electrolysis/Leakage > Page 2366 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 the cooling fan clutch is moving at a relatively low speed, the sensor produces a signal with a low frequency. As the cooling fan clutch speed increases, the sensor generates a signal with a higher frequency. The powertrain control module (PCM) uses the frequency signal generated by the FSS as a feedback for closed loop control of the cooling fan clutch.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes 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 PCM uses the ECT input for fuel control and for cooling fan control. There are 3 types of ECT sensors, threaded, push-in, and twist-lock. The ECT sensor is located in an engine coolant passage.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature increases., and the resistance 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. The CHT sensor is installed in the 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 initiates a fail-safe cooling strategy based on information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system concern 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.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Exhaust System > Catalytic Converter > Component Information > Description and Operation Catalytic Converter: Description and Operation CATALYST AND EXHAUST SYSTEMS Overview V-Engines In-Line Engines The catalytic converter and exhaust Systems 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). The major air pollutants of CO, NOx, and HCs, and their emission into the atmosphere must be controlled. The exhaust system generally consists of an exhaust manifold, front exhaust pipe, front heated oxygen sensor (HO2S), rear exhaust pipe, catalyst HO2S, a muffler, and an exhaust tailpipe. The catalytic converter is typically installed between the front and rear exhaust pipes. On some vehicle applications, more than one catalyst is used between the front and rear exhaust pipes. Catalytic converter efficiency is monitored by the on board diagnostic (OBD) system strategy in the PCM. For information on the OBD catalyst monitor, refer to the description for the Catalyst Efficiency Monitor. See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes/Monitors/Catalyst Efficiency Monitor The number of HO2Ss used in the exhaust stream and the location of these sensors depend on the vehicle emission certification level (LEV, LEV-II, ULEV, PZEV). On most vehicles only 2 HO2Ss are used in an exhaust stream. The front sensors (HO2S11/HO2S21) before the catalyst are used for primary fuel control while the ones after the catalyst (HO2S12/HO2S22) are used to monitor catalyst efficiency. However, some partial zero emission vehicles (PZEV) use 3 HO2Ss for each engine bank. The stream 1 sensors (HO2S11/HO2S21) located before the catalyst are used for primary fuel control, the stream 2 sensors (HO2S12/HO2S22) are used to monitor the light-off catalyst, and the stream 3 sensors (HO2S13/HO2S23) located after the catalyst are used for long term fuel trim control to optimize catalyst efficiency (fore aft oxygen sensor control). Current PZEV vehicles use only a 4-cylinder engine, so only the bank 1 HO2Ss are used. Catalytic Converter Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Exhaust System > Catalytic Converter > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 2418 A catalyst is a material that remains unchanged when it initiates and increases the speed of a chemical reaction. A catalyst also enables 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 246°C to 302°C (475°F to 575°F). A fast light catalyst is a 3-way catalyst (TWC) that is located as close to the exhaust manifold as possible. Because the light off catalyst is located close to the exhaust manifold it lights off faster and reduces emissions more quickly than the catalyst located under the body. Once the catalyst lights off, the catalyst quickly reaches the maximum conversion efficiency for that catalyst. Three-Way Catalyst (TWC) Conversion Efficiency 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. Deviations outside of this window greatly decrease the conversion efficiency. For example a rich mixture decreases the HC and CO conversion efficiency while a lean mixture decreases the NOx conversion efficiency. Exhaust System Typical Bank 1 Catalyst 2 HO2S Configuration Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Exhaust System > Catalytic Converter > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 2419 Typical Bank 1 Catalyst 3 HO2S Configuration 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. A HO2S is mounted on the front exhaust pipe before the catalyst. The catalytic converter reduces the concentration of CO, unburned HCs, and NOx in the exhaust emissions to an acceptable level. The reduced exhaust emissions are directed from the catalytic converter past another HO2S mounted in the rear exhaust pipe and then on into the muffler. Finally, the exhaust emissions are directed to the atmosphere through an exhaust tailpipe. On some PZEV, there is a total of 3 HO2S in the exhaust stream. One near the exhaust manifold (stream 1), one in the middle of the light-off catalyst (stream 2), and the third (stream 3) is mounted after the light-off catalyst. Underbody Catalyst The underbody catalyst is located after the light off catalyst. The underbody catalyst may be in line with the light off catalyst, or the underbody catalyst may be common to 2 light off catalysts, forming a Y pipe configuration. For an exact configuration of the catalyst and exhaust system for a specific vehicle, refer to Catalytic Converter, Exhaust System. Three-Way Catalytic (TWC) Converter The 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 3-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. Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) The HO2Ss provide the powertrain control module (PCM) with voltage and frequency information related to the oxygen content of the exhaust gas. 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 also reduces the noise produced by exhaust gases as they travel from the catalytic converter to the atmosphere.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation Electronic Throttle Control Module: Description and Operation TORQUE BASED ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL (ETC) Overview The torque based ETC is a hardware and software strategy that delivers an engine output torque (via throttle angle) based on driver demand (pedal position). It uses an electronic throttle body, the powertrain control module (PCM), and an accelerator pedal assembly to control the throttle opening and engine torque. The ETC system replaces the standard cable operated accelerator pedal, idle air control (IAC) valve, 3-wire throttle position (TP) sensor, and mechanical throttle body. Torque based ETC enables aggressive automatic transmission shift schedules (earlier upshifts and later downshifts). This is possible by adjusting the throttle angle to achieve the same wheel torque during shifts, and by calculating this desired torque, the system prevents engine lugging (low RPM and low manifold vacuum) while still delivering the performance and torque requested by the driver. It also enables many fuel economy/emission improvement technologies such as variable camshaft timing (VCT) (deliver same torque during transitions). Torque based ETC also results in less intrusive vehicle and engine speed limiting, along with smoother traction control. Other benefits of ETC are: eliminate cruise control actuators - eliminate idle air control (IAC) valve - better airflow range - packaging (no cable) - more responsive powertrain at altitude and improved shift quality It should be noted that the ETC system illuminates a powertrain malfunction indicator (wrench) on the instrument cluster when a concern is present. Concerns are accompanied by diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and may also illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). Electronic Throttle Body (ETB) The ETB has the following characteristics: 1. The throttle actuator control (TAC) motor is a DC motor controlled by the PCM (requires 2-wires). The gear ratio from the motor to the throttle plate shaft is 17:1. 2. There are 2 designs: parallel and in-series. The parallel design has the motor under the bore parallel to the plate shaft. The motor housing is integrated into the main housing. The in-series design has a separate motor housing. 3. Two springs are used: one is used to close the throttle (main spring) and the other is in a plunger assembly that results in a default angle when no power is applied. This is for limp home reasons (the force of the plunger spring is 2 times stronger than the main spring). The default angle is usually set to result in a top vehicle speed of 48 km/h (30 mph). Typically this throttle angle is 7 to 8 degrees from the hard-stop angle. 4. The closed throttle plate hard stop is used to prevent the throttle from binding in the bore (~0.75 degree). This hard stop setting is not adjustable and is set to result in less airflow than the minimum engine airflow required at idle. 5. Unlike cable operated throttle bodies, the intent for the ETB is not to have a hole in the throttle plate or to use plate sealant. The hole is not required in the ETB because the required idle airflow is provided by the plate angle in the throttle body assembly. This plate angle controls idle, idle quality, and eliminates the need for an IAC valve. 6. The TP sensor has 2 signal circuits in the sensor for redundancy. The redundant throttle position signals are required for increased monitoring reasons. The first TP signal (TP1) has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and the second signal (TP2) has a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation the negative slope TP signal (TP1) is used by the control strategy as the indication of throttle position. The TP sensor assembly requires 4 circuits. 5-volt reference voltage - Signal return (ground) - TP1 voltage with negative voltage slope (5-0 volts) - TP2 voltage with positive voltage slope (0-5 volts) Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensors Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 2454 Electronic Throttle Body (ETB) And Accelerator Pedal Assembly The ETC strategy uses pedal position sensors as an input to determine the driver demand. 1. There are 3 pedal position signals required for system monitoring. APP1 has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and APP2 and APP3 both have a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation APP1 is used as the indication of pedal position by the strategy. 2. There are 2 VREF circuits, 2 signal return circuits, and 3 signal circuits (a total of 7 circuits and pins) between the PCM and the APP sensor assembly. 2 reference voltage circuits (5 volts) - 2 signal return (ground) circuits - APP1 voltage with negative voltage slope (5-0 volts) - APP2 voltage with positive voltage slope (0-5 volts) - APP3 voltage with positive voltage slope (0-5 volts) 3. The pedal position signal is convened to pedal travel degrees (rotary angle) by the PCM. The software then converts these degrees to counts, which is the input to the torque based strategy. 4. The 3 pedal position signals make sure the PCM receives a correct input even if 1 signal has a concern. The PCM determines if a signal is incorrect by calculating where it should be, inferred from the other signals. A value is substituted for an incorrect signal if 2 of the 3 signals are incorrect. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) System Strategy Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 2455 ETC System The torque based ETC strategy was developed to improve fuel economy and to accommodate variable camshaft timing (VCT). This is possible by not coupling the throttle angle to the driver pedal position. Uncoupling the throttle angle (produce engine torque) from the pedal position (driver demand) allows the powertrain control strategy to optimize fuel control and transmission shift schedules while delivering the requested wheel torque. The ETC monitor system is distributed across 2 processors within the PCM: the main powertrain control processor unit (CPU) and a monitoring processor called an enhanced-quizzer (E-Quizzer) processor. The primary monitoring function is carried out by the independent plausibility check (IPC) software, which resides on the main processor. It is responsible for determining the driver-demanded torque and comparing it to an estimate of the actual torque delivered. If the generated torque exceeds driver demand by a specified amount, the IPC takes appropriate corrective action. ETC System Failure Mode And Effects Management (Part 1) Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Powertrain Management > Relays and Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 2456 ETC System Failure Mode And Effects Management (Part 2) Since the IPC and the main controller share the same processor, they are subject to a number of potential common failure modes. The E-Quizzer processor was added to redundantly monitor selected PCM inputs and to act as an intelligent watchdog and monitor the performance of the IPC and the main processor. If it determines that the IPC function is impaired in any way, it takes appropriate failure mode and effects management (FMEM) actions.

It is a separate chip embedded in the PCM. The desired angle is communicated from the main CPU via a 312.5 Hz duty cycle (DC) signal. The TPPC interprets the duty cycle signal as follows: Less than 4% - Out of range, limp home default position. - Greater than or equal to 4% but less than 6% - Commanded default position, closed. - Greater than or equal to 6% but less than 7% - Commanded default position. Used for key ON, engine OFF. - Greater than or equal to 7% but less than 8% - Enable ice breaker mode. Used to clear potential ice buildup in the throttle body. - Greater than or equal to 8% but less than 10% - Closed against hard-stop. Used to learn zero throttle angle position (hard stop) after key-up. - Greater than or equal to 10% but less than or equal to 92% - Normal operation, between 0 degrees (hard stop) and 82 degrees, 10% duty cycle equals 0 degrees throttle angle, 92% duty cycle equals 82 degrees throttle angle. - Greater than 92% but less than or equal to 96% - Wide open throttle, 82 to 86 degrees throttle angle. - Greater than 96% but less than or equal to 100% - Out of range, limp home default position. The desired angle is relative to the hard-stop angle. The hard stop angle is learned during each key-up process before the main CPU requests the throttle plate be closed against the hard stop. The output of the TPPC is a voltage request to the H driver (also in PCM). The H driver is capable of positive or negative voltage to the electronic throttle body motor.

Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) may be illuminated with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P0506 and/or P0505. These conditions may appear after battery disconnect, dead battery condition, or keep alive memory (KAM) reset. The symptoms may be due to engine deposits in the throttle leading to air[low less than desired. ACTION Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition. SERVICE PROCEDURE 1. Reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM) to the latest calibration using IDS release 53.9 and higher or 54.1 and higher. This new calibration is not included in the VCM 2008.1 DVD. Calibration files may also be obtained at the website. The calibration contains a sludge compensation strategy for the throttle body. 2. Turn the key off to re-initialize the PCM. This will allow the sludge compensation strategy to learn. 3. With the vehicle in park or neutral and A/C off, start vehicle and allow engine to reach normal operating temperature(greater than 170 °F (77 °C) coolant temperature). Run an additional 5 minutes to allow sufficient learning time. 4. While the engine is running, using IDS datalogger or equivalent, check the PID value of ETC_TRIM. a. If ETC_TRIM value is 3.5 degrees, and/or DTC PuSE is present, then replace the electronic throttle body (ETB), following Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 303-04B. b. If ETC_TRIM value is less than 3.5 degrees and DTC PuSE is not present, but driveability concerns persist, the ETB is not the likely cause of the concern and replacement is not necessary. Continue with normal PC/ED diagnostics.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,catalytic converter and muffler. - Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery.

The EEPROM contains the vehicle strategy including calibration information specific to the vehicle, and is capable of being programmed or flashed repeatedly. As part of the calibration there is an area referred to as the vehicle identification (VID) block. The VID block is programmed when installing a new PCM as described under Programming the VID Block for a Replacement PCM. Failure to carry out this procedure may generate DTCs P1635 or P1639. The VID block in an existing PCM can also be tailored to accommodate various hardware or parameter changes made to the vehicle since production. Failure to carry out this procedure properly may generate DTC P1635, Tire/Axle Ratio out of Acceptable Range. An incorrect tire/axle ratio is one of the main causes for DTC P1639. This is described under Making Changes to the VID Block and also under Making Changes to the PCM Calibration. The VID block contains many items used by the strategy for a variety of functions. Some of these items include the vehicle identification number (VIN), octane adjust, fuel octane, fuel type, vehicle speed limit, tire size, axle ratio, the presence of speed control, and 4-wheel drive electronic shift-on-the-fly (ESOF) versus manual shift-on-the-fly (MSOF). Only items applicable to the vehicle hardware and supported by the VID block is displayed on the scan tool. When changing items in the VID block, the strategy places range limits on certain items such as tire and axle ratio. The number of times the VID block may be reconfigured is limited. When this limit is reached, the scan tool displays a message indicating the need to flash the PCM again to reset the VID block. Programming can be carried out by a local Ford dealer or any non-Ford facility. Refer to the scan tool manufacturer's instruction manual for details. Programming the VID Block for a Replacement PCM A new PCM contains the latest strategy and calibration level for a particular vehicle. However, the VID block is blank and needs programming. There are 2 procedures available. The first is an automatic data transfer from the old PCM to the new PCM, and the second is manual data entry into the new PCM. Automatic data transfer is carried out if the old PCM is capable of communicating. This is done by using a scan tool to retrieve data from the old PCM before removing it from the vehicle. The stored data can then be downloaded to the new PCM after it has been installed. Carry out manual data entry if the old module is damaged or incapable of communicating. Remove and install a new PCM. Using a compatible scan tool, select and carry out the module/parameter programming, referring to the scan tool manufacturer's instruction manual. Make certain that all parameters are included. Failure to properly program tire size in revolutions per mile, (rev/mile equals 63,360 divided by the tire circumference in inches), axle ratio, 4x4/4x2, and/or MSOF/ESOF may result in DTCs P1635 and P1639. You may be instructed to contact the As-Built Data Center for the information needed to manually update the VID block with the scan tool. Contact the center only if the old PCM cannot be used or the data is corrupt. For Ford and Lincoln Mercury technicians, contact your National Hotline or the Professional Technician Society (PTS) website for As-Built data listed under the Service Publications Index. Non-Ford technicians use the Motorcraft(R) website at www.motorcraft.com. From the Motorcraft(R) homepage, use the search function to find the Module Programming or As-Built Data. For Ford and Lincoln Mercury technicians, check the Programmable Module Installation link on the PTS website for quick Programmable Module data information by vehicle. Making Changes to the VID Block A PCM which is programmed may require changes to be made to certain VID information to accommodate the vehicle hardware. Refer to Module Reprogramming on the scan tool. Making Changes to the PCM Calibration At certain times, the entire EEPROM needs to be completely reprogrammed. This is due to changes made to the strategy or calibration after production, or the need to reset the VID block because it has reached its limit. Refer to Module Reprogramming on the scan tool.

There are 3 pedal position signals in the sensor. Signal 1, APPS1, has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and signals 2 and 3, APPS2 and APPS3, both have a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation APPS1 is used as the indication of pedal position by the strategy. The 3 pedal position signals make sure the PCM receives a correct input even if 1 signal has a concern. There are 2 reference voltage circuits and 2 signal return circuits for the sensor.

Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at 200°C (392°F) above the ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire. The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the mass air 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. This input is also used in determining transmission electronic pressure control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling. The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner assembly. Most MAF sensors have integrated bypass technology with an integrated intake air temperature (IAT) sensor. The hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced as an assembly. Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.

The CMP sensor identifies when piston number 1 is on its compression stroke. A signal is then sent to the PCM and used for synchronizing the sequential firing of the fuel injectors. Coil-on-plug (COP) ignition applications use the CMP signal to select the correct ignition coil to fire. Vehicles with 2 CMP sensors are equipped with variable camshaft timing (VCT). They use the second sensor to identify the position of the camshaft on bank 2 as an input to the PCM. There are 2 types of CMP sensors: the 3-pin connector Hall-effect type sensor and the 2-pin connector variable reluctance type sensor.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes 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 PCM uses the ECT input for fuel control and for cooling fan control. There are 3 types of ECT sensors, threaded, push-in, and twist-lock. The ECT sensor is located in an engine coolant passage.

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 10-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 for the CKP sensor configuration. The PCM also uses the CKP signal to determine if a misfire has occurred by measuring rapid deceleration between teeth.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature increases., and the resistance 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. The CHT sensor is installed in the 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 initiates a fail-safe cooling strategy based on information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system concern 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.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and the resistance 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 air flow.

Currently there are 2 design types of IAT sensors used, a stand-alone/non-integrated type and a integrated type. Both types function the same, however the integrated type is incorporated into the mass air flow (MAF) sensor instead of being a stand alone sensor. Supercharged vehicles use 2 IAT sensors. Both sensors are thermistor type devices and operate as described. One is located before the supercharger at the air cleaner for standard OBD/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 spark and to help determine charge air cooler (CAC) efficiency.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes 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 sensor measures the temperature of the engine oil. The sensor is typically threaded into the engine oil lubrication system. The PCM can use the EOT sensor input to determine the following: - On variable camshaft timing (VCT) applications the EOT input is used to adjust the VCT control gains and logic for camshaft timing. - The PCM can use EOT sensor input in conjunction with other PCM inputs to determine oil degradation. - The PCM can use EOT sensor input to initiate a soft engine shutdown. To prevent engine damage from occurring as a result of high oil temperatures, the PCM has the ability to initiate a soft engine shutdown. Whenever engine RPM exceeds a calibrated level for a certain period of time, the PCM begins reducing power by disabling engine cylinders.

A high concentration of oxygen (lean air/fuel ratio) in the exhaust produces a voltage signal less than 0.4 volt. A low concentration of oxygen (rich air/fuel ratio) produces a 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 a temperature of 800°C (1,472°F). At approximately 300°C (572°F) the engine can enter closed loop operation. The VPWR circuit supplies voltage to the heater. The PCM turns the heater on by providing the ground when the correct conditions occur. The heater allows the engine to enter closed loop operation sooner. The use of this heater requires the HO2S heater control to be duty cycled, to prevent damage to the heater.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

PARK is a good position to check for intermittent open circuits (with scan tool monitoring TRD). ^ TR4, TR3A, TR2 and TR1 are all open in OVERDRIVE, so OVERDRIVE is a good position to check for shorts to ground. To determine the shorted components while observing TRD, unplug the TR and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present unplug the transmission harness and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present, then the short is in the PCM or vehicle harness. Remove the suspect circuit(s) wire terminal from the PCM connector. If the short is still present, then the PCM has an internal failure, otherwise the failure is in the vehicle harness.

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 that is generated.

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.

The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor receives this signal through 2 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 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.

Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at 200°C (392°F) above the ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire. The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the mass air 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. This input is also used in determining transmission electronic pressure control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling. The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner assembly. Most MAF sensors have integrated bypass technology with an integrated intake air temperature (IAT) sensor. The hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced as an assembly. Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.

The electrical resistance of a strain gauge increases as pressure increases, and the resistance decreases as the 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.

The sensor uses the intake manifold vacuum as a reference to determine the pressure difference between the fuel rail and the intake manifold. The relationship between fuel pressure and fuel temperature is used to determine the possible presence of fuel vapor in the fuel rail. The temperature sensing portion of the FRPT sensor is a thermistor device in which resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to temperature. Both the pressure and temperature signals are used to control the speed of the fuel pump. The speed of the fuel pump sustains fuel rail pressure which preserves 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.

The redundant ETB position signals are required for increased monitoring. The first ETB position sensor signal (TP1) has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and the second signal (TP2) has a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation the negative slope ETB position sensor signal (TP1) is used by the control strategy as the indication of throttle position. The 2 ETB position sensor signals make sure the PCM receives a correct input even if 1 signal has a concern. There is 1 reference voltage circuit and 1 signal return circuit for the sensor.

There are 3 pedal position signals in the sensor. Signal 1, APPS1, has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and signals 2 and 3, APPS2 and APPS3, both have a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation APPS1 is used as the indication of pedal position by the strategy. The 3 pedal position signals make sure the PCM receives a correct input even if 1 signal has a concern. There are 2 reference voltage circuits and 2 signal return circuits for the sensor.

Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at 200°C (392°F) above the ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire. The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the mass air 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. This input is also used in determining transmission electronic pressure control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling. The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner assembly. Most MAF sensors have integrated bypass technology with an integrated intake air temperature (IAT) sensor. The hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced as an assembly. Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and the resistance 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 air flow. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Intake Air Temperature Sensor > Component Information > Locations > Page 2836 The IAT sensor provides a quicker temperature change response time than the ECT or CHT sensor. Currently there are 2 design types of IAT sensors used, a stand-alone/non-integrated type and a integrated type. Both types function the same, however the integrated type is incorporated into the mass air flow (MAF) sensor instead of being a stand alone sensor. Supercharged vehicles use 2 IAT sensors. Both sensors are thermistor type devices and operate as described. One is located before the supercharger at the air cleaner for standard OBD/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 spark and to help determine charge air cooler (CAC) efficiency.

The BPP switch provides a signal to the PCM indicating that the brakes are applied. The BPP switch is normally open and is mounted on the brake pedal support. Depending on the vehicle application the BPP switch can be hardwired as follows: - to the PCM supplying battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is applied. - to the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, or lighting control module (LCM), the BPP signal is then broadcast over the network to be received by the PCM. - to the ABS traction control/stability assist module. The ABS module interprets the BPP switch input along with other ABS inputs and generates an output called the driver brake application (DBA) signal. The DBA signal is then sent to the PCM and to other BPP signal users.

A normally closed switch supplies battery positive voltage (B+) to the PCM when the brake pedal is not applied. When the brake pedal is applied, the normally closed switch opens and power is removed from the PCM. On some applications the normally closed BPS, along with the normally open BPP switch, are used for a brake rationality test within the PCM. The PCM misfire monitor profile learn function may be disabled if a brake switch concern occurs. If one or both brake pedal inputs to the PCM is not changing states when they were expected to, a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is set by the PCM strategy.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

The gear ratio from the motor to the throttle plate shaft is 17:1. There are 2 designs for the TAC, parallel and in-series. The parallel design has the motor under the bore parallel to the plate shaft. The motor housing is integrated into the main housing. The in-series design has a separate motor housing. Two springs are used; one is used to close the throttle (main spring) and the other is in a plunger assembly that results in a default angle when no power is applied. The force of the plunger spring is 2 times stronger than the main spring. The default angle is usually set to result in a top vehicle speed of 48 km/h (30 mph). Typically this throttle angle is 7 to 8 degree from the hard stop angle. The closed throttle plate hard stop is used to prevent the throttle from binding in the bore (~ 0.75 degree). This hard stop setting is not adjustable and is set to result in less airflow than the minimum engine airflow required at idle. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation Electronic Throttle Control Module: Description and Operation TORQUE BASED ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL (ETC) Overview The torque based ETC is a hardware and software strategy that delivers an engine output torque (via throttle angle) based on driver demand (pedal position). It uses an electronic throttle body, the powertrain control module (PCM), and an accelerator pedal assembly to control the throttle opening and engine torque. The ETC system replaces the standard cable operated accelerator pedal, idle air control (IAC) valve, 3-wire throttle position (TP) sensor, and mechanical throttle body. Torque based ETC enables aggressive automatic transmission shift schedules (earlier upshifts and later downshifts). This is possible by adjusting the throttle angle to achieve the same wheel torque during shifts, and by calculating this desired torque, the system prevents engine lugging (low RPM and low manifold vacuum) while still delivering the performance and torque requested by the driver. It also enables many fuel economy/emission improvement technologies such as variable camshaft timing (VCT) (deliver same torque during transitions). Torque based ETC also results in less intrusive vehicle and engine speed limiting, along with smoother traction control. Other benefits of ETC are: eliminate cruise control actuators - eliminate idle air control (IAC) valve - better airflow range - packaging (no cable) - more responsive powertrain at altitude and improved shift quality It should be noted that the ETC system illuminates a powertrain malfunction indicator (wrench) on the instrument cluster when a concern is present. Concerns are accompanied by diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and may also illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). Electronic Throttle Body (ETB) The ETB has the following characteristics: 1. The throttle actuator control (TAC) motor is a DC motor controlled by the PCM (requires 2-wires). The gear ratio from the motor to the throttle plate shaft is 17:1. 2. There are 2 designs: parallel and in-series. The parallel design has the motor under the bore parallel to the plate shaft. The motor housing is integrated into the main housing. The in-series design has a separate motor housing. 3. Two springs are used: one is used to close the throttle (main spring) and the other is in a plunger assembly that results in a default angle when no power is applied. This is for limp home reasons (the force of the plunger spring is 2 times stronger than the main spring). The default angle is usually set to result in a top vehicle speed of 48 km/h (30 mph). Typically this throttle angle is 7 to 8 degrees from the hard-stop angle. 4. The closed throttle plate hard stop is used to prevent the throttle from binding in the bore (~0.75 degree). This hard stop setting is not adjustable and is set to result in less airflow than the minimum engine airflow required at idle. 5. Unlike cable operated throttle bodies, the intent for the ETB is not to have a hole in the throttle plate or to use plate sealant. The hole is not required in the ETB because the required idle airflow is provided by the plate angle in the throttle body assembly. This plate angle controls idle, idle quality, and eliminates the need for an IAC valve. 6. The TP sensor has 2 signal circuits in the sensor for redundancy. The redundant throttle position signals are required for increased monitoring reasons. The first TP signal (TP1) has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and the second signal (TP2) has a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation the negative slope TP signal (TP1) is used by the control strategy as the indication of throttle position. The TP sensor assembly requires 4 circuits. 5-volt reference voltage - Signal return (ground) - TP1 voltage with negative voltage slope (5-0 volts) - TP2 voltage with positive voltage slope (0-5 volts) Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensors Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 2908 Electronic Throttle Body (ETB) And Accelerator Pedal Assembly The ETC strategy uses pedal position sensors as an input to determine the driver demand. 1. There are 3 pedal position signals required for system monitoring. APP1 has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and APP2 and APP3 both have a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation APP1 is used as the indication of pedal position by the strategy. 2. There are 2 VREF circuits, 2 signal return circuits, and 3 signal circuits (a total of 7 circuits and pins) between the PCM and the APP sensor assembly. 2 reference voltage circuits (5 volts) - 2 signal return (ground) circuits - APP1 voltage with negative voltage slope (5-0 volts) - APP2 voltage with positive voltage slope (0-5 volts) - APP3 voltage with positive voltage slope (0-5 volts) 3. The pedal position signal is convened to pedal travel degrees (rotary angle) by the PCM. The software then converts these degrees to counts, which is the input to the torque based strategy. 4. The 3 pedal position signals make sure the PCM receives a correct input even if 1 signal has a concern. The PCM determines if a signal is incorrect by calculating where it should be, inferred from the other signals. A value is substituted for an incorrect signal if 2 of the 3 signals are incorrect. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) System Strategy Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 2909 ETC System The torque based ETC strategy was developed to improve fuel economy and to accommodate variable camshaft timing (VCT). This is possible by not coupling the throttle angle to the driver pedal position. Uncoupling the throttle angle (produce engine torque) from the pedal position (driver demand) allows the powertrain control strategy to optimize fuel control and transmission shift schedules while delivering the requested wheel torque. The ETC monitor system is distributed across 2 processors within the PCM: the main powertrain control processor unit (CPU) and a monitoring processor called an enhanced-quizzer (E-Quizzer) processor. The primary monitoring function is carried out by the independent plausibility check (IPC) software, which resides on the main processor. It is responsible for determining the driver-demanded torque and comparing it to an estimate of the actual torque delivered. If the generated torque exceeds driver demand by a specified amount, the IPC takes appropriate corrective action. ETC System Failure Mode And Effects Management (Part 1) Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 2910 ETC System Failure Mode And Effects Management (Part 2) Since the IPC and the main controller share the same processor, they are subject to a number of potential common failure modes. The E-Quizzer processor was added to redundantly monitor selected PCM inputs and to act as an intelligent watchdog and monitor the performance of the IPC and the main processor. If it determines that the IPC function is impaired in any way, it takes appropriate failure mode and effects management (FMEM) actions.

It is a separate chip embedded in the PCM. The desired angle is communicated from the main CPU via a 312.5 Hz duty cycle (DC) signal. The TPPC interprets the duty cycle signal as follows: Less than 4% - Out of range, limp home default position. - Greater than or equal to 4% but less than 6% - Commanded default position, closed. - Greater than or equal to 6% but less than 7% - Commanded default position. Used for key ON, engine OFF. - Greater than or equal to 7% but less than 8% - Enable ice breaker mode. Used to clear potential ice buildup in the throttle body. - Greater than or equal to 8% but less than 10% - Closed against hard-stop. Used to learn zero throttle angle position (hard stop) after key-up. - Greater than or equal to 10% but less than or equal to 92% - Normal operation, between 0 degrees (hard stop) and 82 degrees, 10% duty cycle equals 0 degrees throttle angle, 92% duty cycle equals 82 degrees throttle angle. - Greater than 92% but less than or equal to 96% - Wide open throttle, 82 to 86 degrees throttle angle. - Greater than 96% but less than or equal to 100% - Out of range, limp home default position. The desired angle is relative to the hard-stop angle. The hard stop angle is learned during each key-up process before the main CPU requests the throttle plate be closed against the hard stop. The output of the TPPC is a voltage request to the H driver (also in PCM). The H driver is capable of positive or negative voltage to the electronic throttle body motor.

Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) may be illuminated with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P0506 and/or P0505. These conditions may appear after battery disconnect, dead battery condition, or keep alive memory (KAM) reset. The symptoms may be due to engine deposits in the throttle leading to air[low less than desired. ACTION Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition. SERVICE PROCEDURE 1. Reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM) to the latest calibration using IDS release 53.9 and higher or 54.1 and higher. This new calibration is not included in the VCM 2008.1 DVD. Calibration files may also be obtained at the website. The calibration contains a sludge compensation strategy for the throttle body. 2. Turn the key off to re-initialize the PCM. This will allow the sludge compensation strategy to learn. 3. With the vehicle in park or neutral and A/C off, start vehicle and allow engine to reach normal operating temperature(greater than 170 °F (77 °C) coolant temperature). Run an additional 5 minutes to allow sufficient learning time. 4. While the engine is running, using IDS datalogger or equivalent, check the PID value of ETC_TRIM. a. If ETC_TRIM value is 3.5 degrees, and/or DTC PuSE is present, then replace the electronic throttle body (ETB), following Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 303-04B. b. If ETC_TRIM value is less than 3.5 degrees and DTC PuSE is not present, but driveability concerns persist, the ETB is not the likely cause of the concern and replacement is not necessary. Continue with normal PC/ED diagnostics.

Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) may be illuminated with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P0506 and/or P0505. These conditions may appear after battery disconnect, dead battery condition, or keep alive memory (KAM) reset. The symptoms may be due to engine deposits in the throttle leading to air[low less than desired. ACTION Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition. SERVICE PROCEDURE 1. Reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM) to the latest calibration using IDS release 53.9 and higher or 54.1 and higher. This new calibration is not included in the VCM 2008.1 DVD. Calibration files may also be obtained at the website. The calibration contains a sludge compensation strategy for the throttle body. 2. Turn the key off to re-initialize the PCM. This will allow the sludge compensation strategy to learn. 3. With the vehicle in park or neutral and A/C off, start vehicle and allow engine to reach normal operating temperature(greater than 170 °F (77 °C) coolant temperature). Run an additional 5 minutes to allow sufficient learning time. 4. While the engine is running, using IDS datalogger or equivalent, check the PID value of ETC_TRIM. a. If ETC_TRIM value is 3.5 degrees, and/or DTC PuSE is present, then replace the electronic throttle body (ETB), following Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 303-04B. b. If ETC_TRIM value is less than 3.5 degrees and DTC PuSE is not present, but driveability concerns persist, the ETB is not the likely cause of the concern and replacement is not necessary. Continue with normal PC/ED diagnostics.

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 Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > All Other Service Bulletins for Engine Control Module: > 06-21-19 > Oct > 06 > A/C - Heater Core Electrolysis/Leakage > Page 2937 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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2952 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Service and Repair > Powertrain Control Module (PCM) > Page 2976 Engine Control Module: Service and Repair Flash Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM) FLASH ELECTRICALLY ERASABLE PROGRAMMABLE READ ONLY MEMORY (EEPROM) Description The EEPROM is contained in an integrated circuit (IC) internal to the powertrain control module (PCM). The EEPROM contains the vehicle strategy including calibration information specific to the vehicle, and is capable of being programmed or flashed repeatedly. As part of the calibration there is an area referred to as the vehicle identification (VID) block. The VID block is programmed when installing a new PCM as described under Programming the VID Block for a Replacement PCM. Failure to carry out this procedure may generate DTCs P1635 or P1639. The VID block in an existing PCM can also be tailored to accommodate various hardware or parameter changes made to the vehicle since production. Failure to carry out this procedure properly may generate DTC P1635, Tire/Axle Ratio out of Acceptable Range. An incorrect tire/axle ratio is one of the main causes for DTC P1639. This is described under Making Changes to the VID Block and also under Making Changes to the PCM Calibration. The VID block contains many items used by the strategy for a variety of functions. Some of these items include the vehicle identification number (VIN), octane adjust, fuel octane, fuel type, vehicle speed limit, tire size, axle ratio, the presence of speed control, and 4-wheel drive electronic shift-on-the-fly (ESOF) versus manual shift-on-the-fly (MSOF). Only items applicable to the vehicle hardware and supported by the VID block is displayed on the scan tool. When changing items in the VID block, the strategy places range limits on certain items such as tire and axle ratio. The number of times the VID block may be reconfigured is limited. When this limit is reached, the scan tool displays a message indicating the need to flash the PCM again to reset the VID block. Programming can be carried out by a local Ford dealer or any non-Ford facility. Refer to the scan tool manufacturer's instruction manual for details. Programming the VID Block for a Replacement PCM A new PCM contains the latest strategy and calibration level for a particular vehicle. However, the VID block is blank and needs programming. There are 2 procedures available. The first is an automatic data transfer from the old PCM to the new PCM, and the second is manual data entry into the new PCM. Automatic data transfer is carried out if the old PCM is capable of communicating. This is done by using a scan tool to retrieve data from the old PCM before removing it from the vehicle. The stored data can then be downloaded to the new PCM after it has been installed. Carry out manual data entry if the old module is damaged or incapable of communicating. Remove and install a new PCM. Using a compatible scan tool, select and carry out the module/parameter programming, referring to the scan tool manufacturer's instruction manual. Make certain that all parameters are included. Failure to properly program tire size in revolutions per mile, (rev/mile equals 63,360 divided by the tire circumference in inches), axle ratio, 4x4/4x2, and/or MSOF/ESOF may result in DTCs P1635 and P1639. You may be instructed to contact the As-Built Data Center for the information needed to manually update the VID block with the scan tool. Contact the center only if the old PCM cannot be used or the data is corrupt. For Ford and Lincoln Mercury technicians, contact your National Hotline or the Professional Technician Society (PTS) website for As-Built data listed under the Service Publications Index. Non-Ford technicians use the Motorcraft(R) website at www.motorcraft.com. From the Motorcraft(R) homepage, use the search function to find the Module Programming or As-Built Data. For Ford and Lincoln Mercury technicians, check the Programmable Module Installation link on the PTS website for quick Programmable Module data information by vehicle. Making Changes to the VID Block A PCM which is programmed may require changes to be made to certain VID information to accommodate the vehicle hardware. Refer to Module Reprogramming on the scan tool. Making Changes to the PCM Calibration At certain times, the entire EEPROM needs to be completely reprogrammed. This is due to changes made to the strategy or calibration after production, or the need to reset the VID block because it has reached its limit. Refer to Module Reprogramming on the scan tool.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature increases., and the resistance 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. The CHT sensor is installed in the 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 initiates a fail-safe cooling strategy based on information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system concern 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.

Some IAC valves require engine vacuum to operate. The IAC valve assembly controls the engine idle speed and provides a dashpot 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. 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 dashpot function) - over-temperature idle boost Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Information Bus > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions Information Bus: Diagram Information and Instructions Introduction 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 diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

All details (wires, splices, connectors) between the fuse and the first component are shown. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Information Bus > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3007 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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.

CAN is used for many modules to communicate with each other on a common network. CAN in-vehicle networking, is a method for transferring data among distributed electronic modules via a serial data bus. Without serial networking, intermodule communication requires dedicated, point to point wiring resulting in bulky, expensive, complex, and difficult to install wiring harnesses. Applying a serial data network reduces the number of wires combining the signals on a single network. Information is sent to the individual control modules that control each function. The vehicle has 2 module communication networks: - Medium speed (MS) CAN - High speed (HS) CAN Both networks are connected to the data link connector (DLC). This makes diagnosis and testing of these systems easier by allowing one scan tool to be able to diagnose and control any module on both networks from one connector. The DLC can be found under the instrument panel between the steering column and the audio unit. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Information Bus > Component Information > Diagrams > Page 3025 Network Topology MS-CAN Network Operation The MS-CAN network communicates using bussed messages. The MS-CAN has an unshielded twisted pair cable, data bus (+) and data bus (-) circuits. In addition to scan tool communication, this network allows sharing of information between all modules on the network. The MS-CAN is a medium speed communication network used for the following modules: SJB - Audio unit - Instrument cluster - DSM (if equipped) - DVD player (if equipped) - EATC module (if equipped) Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Information Bus > Component Information > Diagrams > Page 3026 - Parking aid module (if equipped) - Satellite audio receiver (if equipped) - Power running board module (if equipped) HS-CAN Network Operation The HS-CAN network communicates using bussed messages. The HS-CAN network uses an unshielded twisted pair cable, data bus (+) and data bus (-) circuits. In addition to scan tool communication, this network allows sharing of information between all modules on the network. The HS-CAN is a high speed communication network used for the following modules: PCM - TCM (if equipped) - RCM - ABS module - Instrument cluster - Occupant classification sensor module - 4WD control module (if equipped) Network Termination The CAN network uses a network termination circuit to improve communication reliability. The network termination of the CAN bus takes place inside the termination modules by termination resistors. Termination modules are located at either end of the bus network. As network messages are broadcast in the form of voltage signals, the network voltage signals are stabilized by the termination resistors. Each termination module has a 120ohm resistor across the positive and negative bus connection in the termination module. With 2 termination modules on each network, and the 120 ohm resistors located in a parallel circuit configuration, the total network impedance, or total resistance is 60 ohms. Network termination improves bus message reliability by: stabilizing bus voltage. - eliminating electrical interference. Gateway Module The instrument cluster is the gateway module, translating HS-CAN to MS-CAN and vice versa. This information allows a message to be distributed throughout both networks. The instrument cluster is the only module on this vehicle that has this ability.

CAN is a method for transferring data among distributed electronic modules via a serial data bus. The vehicle is equipped with 2 module communication networks: - Medium speed (MS) CAN - High speed (HS) CAN MS-CAN The MS-CAN is a medium speed communication network that uses an unshielded twisted pair cable of data (+) and data (-) circuits. The data (+) and the data (-) circuits are each regulated to approximately 2.5 volts during neutral or rested network traffic. As bus messages are sent on the data (+) circuit, voltage is increased by approximately 1.0 volt. Inversely, the data (-) circuit is reduced by approximately 1.0 volt when a bus message is sent. Multiple bus messages can be sent over the network CAN circuits allowing multiple modules to communicate with each other. The MS-CAN network will not communicate while certain faults are present, but will operate with diminished performance with other faults present. The MS-CAN network may remain operational when 1 of the 2 termination resistors are not present. The MS-CAN network operates at a maximum data transfer speed of 125 Kbps for bus messages and designed for general information transfer. The network will remain operational, but at a degraded level, when certain circuit faults are present. The following modules are on the MS-CAN network: Audio unit - Instrument cluster - Smart junction box (SJB) - Parking aid module (if equipped) - Driver seat module (if equipped - Satellite radio receiver (if equipped) - Power running board module (if equipped) - Digital versatile disc (DVD) player (if equipped) - Electronic automatic temperature control (EATC) module (if equipped) MS-CAN Network Communication Fault Chart The fault chart describes the specific MS-CAN network failures and their resulting symptom: HS-CAN The HS-CAN is a high speed communication network that uses an unshielded twisted pair cable of data (+) and data (-) circuits. The data (+) and the data (-) circuits are each regulated to approximately 2.5 volts during neutral or rested network traffic. As bus messages are sent on the data (+) circuit, voltage is increased by approximately 1.0 volt. Inversely, the data (-) circuit is reduced by approximately 1.0 volt when a bus message is sent. Multiple bus messages can be sent over the network CAN circuits allowing multiple modules to communicate with each other.

The HS-CAN bus may remain operational when 1 of the 2 termination resistors are not present. The HS-CAN network operates at a maximum data transfer speed of 500 Kbps and is designed for real time information transfer and control. The network will remain operational, but at a degraded level, when certain circuit faults are present.

Carry out the programmable module installation (PMI) procedure when another directs to carry out configuration or when DTCs from the list are present. Principles of Operation PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION Configurable modules accommodate a variety of vehicle options, eliminating the need for many unique modules for one vehicle line. These modules must be configured when replaced as part of a repair procedure. Configurable modules should not be exchanged between vehicles since the settings are unique to each vehicle. Failure to configure a new module may result in improper operation and/or any of the following DTCs setting: - B2477 and/or B2141 - sets when a body/chassis module is not configured. - B2900 - sets when there is a VIN mismatch between the module with the B2900 and the PCM. Either the PCM or the body module stored VIN Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Information Bus > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview > Page 3036 may be incorrect. - P0602, P0605 and/or P1639 - sets when the powertrain control module (PCM) vehicle identification (VID) block is not configured or is configured incorrectly. - U0300 and/or U0301 - sets when the configuration between 2 or more modules do not match. - U2050 and/or U2051 - sets when a valid strategy/calibration is not present. The following are the 3 different methods of configuration: - Programmable module installation (PMI) - Module reprogramming ("flashing") - Programmable parameters Some modules do not support all 3 methods. Definition of Terms The following are definitions of configuration terms: Programmable Module Installation (PMI) PMI is a scan tool process which configures settings in a new module. Data used for the PMI process is automatically downloaded from the original module and stored when a scan tool session is started. If this data cannot be retrieved from the module being replaced, the scan tool may prompt for As-Built data entry or display a list of parameter values that need to be manually selected. Some modules are reprogrammed during PMI when a strategy/calibration update is available. NOTE: A module must be able to communicate with the scan tool in order to carry out PMI. It is important that the scan tool identifies the vehicle and obtains configuration data prior to removing any modules. To carry out PMI, refer to Programmable Module Installation. Module Reprogramming Module reprogramming (also referred to as "flashing") is a scan tool process which updates the strategy/calibration in a module. Module reprogramming is automatically carried out during PMI when a later strategy/calibration is available. Reprogramming a module with the same level of software will not improve module operation or repair a hardware failure. NOTE: Module reprogramming should be limited to circumstances where a published Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) procedure recommends doing so. - A module cannot communicate with other modules on the communication network while being reprogrammed. Clear any network communication DTCs which may have been set in other modules during reprogramming. Programmable Parameters Programmable parameters are customer preference items that may be modified by the dealer via scan tool or in some cases modified by the customer following a procedure listed in the vehicle Owner's Literature. While many configuration options may exist for a module, only a few of these options are programmable parameters. Adaptive Learning and Calibration Some modules require a separate learning procedure be carried out if replaced as part of a repair procedure. For adaptive learning and calibration instructions, refer to the specific module removal and installation procedures. Vehicle Identification (VID) Block Some PCMs contain a memory area called a vehicle identification (VID) block. The PCM VID block commonly stores powertrain configuration items such as VIN, tire size, axle ratio, and whether or not the vehicle is equipped with speed control. As-Built Data As-Built data is a VIN specific module configuration record. During vehicle build, the configuration from all modules is downloaded and stored in the As-Built database. As Built data will not reflect customer preference items that have been changed from the default state. These items will need to be changed using programmable parameters after the module is configured. NOTE: It is not necessary to obtain As-Built data unless directed to do so by the scan tool. This data may be accessed from the technician service publication website.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes 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 sensor measures the temperature of the engine oil. The sensor is typically threaded into the engine oil lubrication system. The PCM can use the EOT sensor input to determine the following: - On variable camshaft timing (VCT) applications the EOT input is used to adjust the VCT control gains and logic for camshaft timing. - The PCM can use EOT sensor input in conjunction with other PCM inputs to determine oil degradation. - The PCM can use EOT sensor input to initiate a soft engine shutdown. To prevent engine damage from occurring as a result of high oil temperatures, the PCM has the ability to initiate a soft engine shutdown. Whenever engine RPM exceeds a calibrated level for a certain period of time, the PCM begins reducing power by disabling engine cylinders.

A high concentration of oxygen (lean air/fuel ratio) in the exhaust produces a voltage signal less than 0.4 volt. A low concentration of oxygen (rich air/fuel ratio) produces a 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 a temperature of 800°C (1,472°F). At approximately 300°C (572°F) the engine can enter closed loop operation. The VPWR circuit supplies voltage to the heater. The PCM turns the heater on by providing the ground when the correct conditions occur. The heater allows the engine to enter closed loop operation sooner. The use of this heater requires the HO2S heater control to be duty cycled, to prevent damage to the heater.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation Electronic Throttle Control Module: Description and Operation TORQUE BASED ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL (ETC) Overview The torque based ETC is a hardware and software strategy that delivers an engine output torque (via throttle angle) based on driver demand (pedal position). It uses an electronic throttle body, the powertrain control module (PCM), and an accelerator pedal assembly to control the throttle opening and engine torque. The ETC system replaces the standard cable operated accelerator pedal, idle air control (IAC) valve, 3-wire throttle position (TP) sensor, and mechanical throttle body. Torque based ETC enables aggressive automatic transmission shift schedules (earlier upshifts and later downshifts). This is possible by adjusting the throttle angle to achieve the same wheel torque during shifts, and by calculating this desired torque, the system prevents engine lugging (low RPM and low manifold vacuum) while still delivering the performance and torque requested by the driver. It also enables many fuel economy/emission improvement technologies such as variable camshaft timing (VCT) (deliver same torque during transitions). Torque based ETC also results in less intrusive vehicle and engine speed limiting, along with smoother traction control. Other benefits of ETC are: eliminate cruise control actuators - eliminate idle air control (IAC) valve - better airflow range - packaging (no cable) - more responsive powertrain at altitude and improved shift quality It should be noted that the ETC system illuminates a powertrain malfunction indicator (wrench) on the instrument cluster when a concern is present. Concerns are accompanied by diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and may also illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). Electronic Throttle Body (ETB) The ETB has the following characteristics: 1. The throttle actuator control (TAC) motor is a DC motor controlled by the PCM (requires 2-wires). The gear ratio from the motor to the throttle plate shaft is 17:1. 2. There are 2 designs: parallel and in-series. The parallel design has the motor under the bore parallel to the plate shaft. The motor housing is integrated into the main housing. The in-series design has a separate motor housing. 3. Two springs are used: one is used to close the throttle (main spring) and the other is in a plunger assembly that results in a default angle when no power is applied. This is for limp home reasons (the force of the plunger spring is 2 times stronger than the main spring). The default angle is usually set to result in a top vehicle speed of 48 km/h (30 mph). Typically this throttle angle is 7 to 8 degrees from the hard-stop angle. 4. The closed throttle plate hard stop is used to prevent the throttle from binding in the bore (~0.75 degree). This hard stop setting is not adjustable and is set to result in less airflow than the minimum engine airflow required at idle. 5. Unlike cable operated throttle bodies, the intent for the ETB is not to have a hole in the throttle plate or to use plate sealant. The hole is not required in the ETB because the required idle airflow is provided by the plate angle in the throttle body assembly. This plate angle controls idle, idle quality, and eliminates the need for an IAC valve. 6. The TP sensor has 2 signal circuits in the sensor for redundancy. The redundant throttle position signals are required for increased monitoring reasons. The first TP signal (TP1) has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and the second signal (TP2) has a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation the negative slope TP signal (TP1) is used by the control strategy as the indication of throttle position. The TP sensor assembly requires 4 circuits. 5-volt reference voltage - Signal return (ground) - TP1 voltage with negative voltage slope (5-0 volts) - TP2 voltage with positive voltage slope (0-5 volts) Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensors Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 3188 Electronic Throttle Body (ETB) And Accelerator Pedal Assembly The ETC strategy uses pedal position sensors as an input to determine the driver demand. 1. There are 3 pedal position signals required for system monitoring. APP1 has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and APP2 and APP3 both have a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation APP1 is used as the indication of pedal position by the strategy. 2. There are 2 VREF circuits, 2 signal return circuits, and 3 signal circuits (a total of 7 circuits and pins) between the PCM and the APP sensor assembly. 2 reference voltage circuits (5 volts) - 2 signal return (ground) circuits - APP1 voltage with negative voltage slope (5-0 volts) - APP2 voltage with positive voltage slope (0-5 volts) - APP3 voltage with positive voltage slope (0-5 volts) 3. The pedal position signal is convened to pedal travel degrees (rotary angle) by the PCM. The software then converts these degrees to counts, which is the input to the torque based strategy. 4. The 3 pedal position signals make sure the PCM receives a correct input even if 1 signal has a concern. The PCM determines if a signal is incorrect by calculating where it should be, inferred from the other signals. A value is substituted for an incorrect signal if 2 of the 3 signals are incorrect. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) System Strategy Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 3189 ETC System The torque based ETC strategy was developed to improve fuel economy and to accommodate variable camshaft timing (VCT). This is possible by not coupling the throttle angle to the driver pedal position. Uncoupling the throttle angle (produce engine torque) from the pedal position (driver demand) allows the powertrain control strategy to optimize fuel control and transmission shift schedules while delivering the requested wheel torque. The ETC monitor system is distributed across 2 processors within the PCM: the main powertrain control processor unit (CPU) and a monitoring processor called an enhanced-quizzer (E-Quizzer) processor. The primary monitoring function is carried out by the independent plausibility check (IPC) software, which resides on the main processor. It is responsible for determining the driver-demanded torque and comparing it to an estimate of the actual torque delivered. If the generated torque exceeds driver demand by a specified amount, the IPC takes appropriate corrective action. ETC System Failure Mode And Effects Management (Part 1) Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Electronic Throttle Control Module > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 3190 ETC System Failure Mode And Effects Management (Part 2) Since the IPC and the main controller share the same processor, they are subject to a number of potential common failure modes. The E-Quizzer processor was added to redundantly monitor selected PCM inputs and to act as an intelligent watchdog and monitor the performance of the IPC and the main processor. If it determines that the IPC function is impaired in any way, it takes appropriate failure mode and effects management (FMEM) actions.

It is a separate chip embedded in the PCM. The desired angle is communicated from the main CPU via a 312.5 Hz duty cycle (DC) signal. The TPPC interprets the duty cycle signal as follows: Less than 4% - Out of range, limp home default position. - Greater than or equal to 4% but less than 6% - Commanded default position, closed. - Greater than or equal to 6% but less than 7% - Commanded default position. Used for key ON, engine OFF. - Greater than or equal to 7% but less than 8% - Enable ice breaker mode. Used to clear potential ice buildup in the throttle body. - Greater than or equal to 8% but less than 10% - Closed against hard-stop. Used to learn zero throttle angle position (hard stop) after key-up. - Greater than or equal to 10% but less than or equal to 92% - Normal operation, between 0 degrees (hard stop) and 82 degrees, 10% duty cycle equals 0 degrees throttle angle, 92% duty cycle equals 82 degrees throttle angle. - Greater than 92% but less than or equal to 96% - Wide open throttle, 82 to 86 degrees throttle angle. - Greater than 96% but less than or equal to 100% - Out of range, limp home default position. The desired angle is relative to the hard-stop angle. The hard stop angle is learned during each key-up process before the main CPU requests the throttle plate be closed against the hard stop. The output of the TPPC is a voltage request to the H driver (also in PCM). The H driver is capable of positive or negative voltage to the electronic throttle body motor.

Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) may be illuminated with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P0506 and/or P0505. These conditions may appear after battery disconnect, dead battery condition, or keep alive memory (KAM) reset. The symptoms may be due to engine deposits in the throttle leading to air[low less than desired. ACTION Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition. SERVICE PROCEDURE 1. Reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM) to the latest calibration using IDS release 53.9 and higher or 54.1 and higher. This new calibration is not included in the VCM 2008.1 DVD. Calibration files may also be obtained at the website. The calibration contains a sludge compensation strategy for the throttle body. 2. Turn the key off to re-initialize the PCM. This will allow the sludge compensation strategy to learn. 3. With the vehicle in park or neutral and A/C off, start vehicle and allow engine to reach normal operating temperature(greater than 170 °F (77 °C) coolant temperature). Run an additional 5 minutes to allow sufficient learning time. 4. While the engine is running, using IDS datalogger or equivalent, check the PID value of ETC_TRIM. a. If ETC_TRIM value is 3.5 degrees, and/or DTC PuSE is present, then replace the electronic throttle body (ETB), following Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 303-04B. b. If ETC_TRIM value is less than 3.5 degrees and DTC PuSE is not present, but driveability concerns persist, the ETB is not the likely cause of the concern and replacement is not necessary. Continue with normal PC/ED diagnostics.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Relays and Modules - Computers and Control Systems > Engine Control Module > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3218 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,catalytic converter and muffler. - Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery.

The EEPROM contains the vehicle strategy including calibration information specific to the vehicle, and is capable of being programmed or flashed repeatedly. As part of the calibration there is an area referred to as the vehicle identification (VID) block. The VID block is programmed when installing a new PCM as described under Programming the VID Block for a Replacement PCM. Failure to carry out this procedure may generate DTCs P1635 or P1639. The VID block in an existing PCM can also be tailored to accommodate various hardware or parameter changes made to the vehicle since production. Failure to carry out this procedure properly may generate DTC P1635, Tire/Axle Ratio out of Acceptable Range. An incorrect tire/axle ratio is one of the main causes for DTC P1639. This is described under Making Changes to the VID Block and also under Making Changes to the PCM Calibration. The VID block contains many items used by the strategy for a variety of functions. Some of these items include the vehicle identification number (VIN), octane adjust, fuel octane, fuel type, vehicle speed limit, tire size, axle ratio, the presence of speed control, and 4-wheel drive electronic shift-on-the-fly (ESOF) versus manual shift-on-the-fly (MSOF). Only items applicable to the vehicle hardware and supported by the VID block is displayed on the scan tool. When changing items in the VID block, the strategy places range limits on certain items such as tire and axle ratio. The number of times the VID block may be reconfigured is limited. When this limit is reached, the scan tool displays a message indicating the need to flash the PCM again to reset the VID block. Programming can be carried out by a local Ford dealer or any non-Ford facility. Refer to the scan tool manufacturer's instruction manual for details. Programming the VID Block for a Replacement PCM A new PCM contains the latest strategy and calibration level for a particular vehicle. However, the VID block is blank and needs programming. There are 2 procedures available. The first is an automatic data transfer from the old PCM to the new PCM, and the second is manual data entry into the new PCM. Automatic data transfer is carried out if the old PCM is capable of communicating. This is done by using a scan tool to retrieve data from the old PCM before removing it from the vehicle. The stored data can then be downloaded to the new PCM after it has been installed. Carry out manual data entry if the old module is damaged or incapable of communicating. Remove and install a new PCM. Using a compatible scan tool, select and carry out the module/parameter programming, referring to the scan tool manufacturer's instruction manual. Make certain that all parameters are included. Failure to properly program tire size in revolutions per mile, (rev/mile equals 63,360 divided by the tire circumference in inches), axle ratio, 4x4/4x2, and/or MSOF/ESOF may result in DTCs P1635 and P1639. You may be instructed to contact the As-Built Data Center for the information needed to manually update the VID block with the scan tool. Contact the center only if the old PCM cannot be used or the data is corrupt. For Ford and Lincoln Mercury technicians, contact your National Hotline or the Professional Technician Society (PTS) website for As-Built data listed under the Service Publications Index. Non-Ford technicians use the Motorcraft(R) website at www.motorcraft.com. From the Motorcraft(R) homepage, use the search function to find the Module Programming or As-Built Data. For Ford and Lincoln Mercury technicians, check the Programmable Module Installation link on the PTS website for quick Programmable Module data information by vehicle. Making Changes to the VID Block A PCM which is programmed may require changes to be made to certain VID information to accommodate the vehicle hardware. Refer to Module Reprogramming on the scan tool. Making Changes to the PCM Calibration At certain times, the entire EEPROM needs to be completely reprogrammed. This is due to changes made to the strategy or calibration after production, or the need to reset the VID block because it has reached its limit. Refer to Module Reprogramming on the scan tool.

There are 3 pedal position signals in the sensor. Signal 1, APPS1, has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and signals 2 and 3, APPS2 and APPS3, both have a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation APPS1 is used as the indication of pedal position by the strategy. The 3 pedal position signals make sure the PCM receives a correct input even if 1 signal has a concern. There are 2 reference voltage circuits and 2 signal return circuits for the sensor.

Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at 200°C (392°F) above the ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire. The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the mass air 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. This input is also used in determining transmission electronic pressure control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling. The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner assembly. Most MAF sensors have integrated bypass technology with an integrated intake air temperature (IAT) sensor. The hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced as an assembly. Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.

The CMP sensor identifies when piston number 1 is on its compression stroke. A signal is then sent to the PCM and used for synchronizing the sequential firing of the fuel injectors. Coil-on-plug (COP) ignition applications use the CMP signal to select the correct ignition coil to fire. Vehicles with 2 CMP sensors are equipped with variable camshaft timing (VCT). They use the second sensor to identify the position of the camshaft on bank 2 as an input to the PCM. There are 2 types of CMP sensors: the 3-pin connector Hall-effect type sensor and the 2-pin connector variable reluctance type sensor.

The PCM provides a low current voltage on the CPP circuit. When the CPP switch is closed, this voltage is pulled low through the SIG RTN circuit. The CPP input to the PCM is used to detect a reduction in engine load. The PCM uses the load information for mass air flow and fuel calculations.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes 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 PCM uses the ECT input for fuel control and for cooling fan control. There are 3 types of ECT sensors, threaded, push-in, and twist-lock. The ECT sensor is located in an engine coolant passage.

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 10-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 for the CKP sensor configuration. The PCM also uses the CKP signal to determine if a misfire has occurred by measuring rapid deceleration between teeth.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature increases., and the resistance 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. The CHT sensor is installed in the 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 initiates a fail-safe cooling strategy based on information from the CHT sensor. A cooling system concern 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.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and the resistance 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 air flow. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Sensors and Switches Computers and Control Systems > Intake Air Temperature Sensor > Component Information > Locations > Page 3310 The IAT sensor provides a quicker temperature change response time than the ECT or CHT sensor. Currently there are 2 design types of IAT sensors used, a stand-alone/non-integrated type and a integrated type. Both types function the same, however the integrated type is incorporated into the mass air flow (MAF) sensor instead of being a stand alone sensor. Supercharged vehicles use 2 IAT sensors. Both sensors are thermistor type devices and operate as described. One is located before the supercharger at the air cleaner for standard OBD/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 spark and to help determine charge air cooler (CAC) efficiency.

The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature increases and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes 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 sensor measures the temperature of the engine oil. The sensor is typically threaded into the engine oil lubrication system. The PCM can use the EOT sensor input to determine the following: - On variable camshaft timing (VCT) applications the EOT input is used to adjust the VCT control gains and logic for camshaft timing. - The PCM can use EOT sensor input in conjunction with other PCM inputs to determine oil degradation. - The PCM can use EOT sensor input to initiate a soft engine shutdown. To prevent engine damage from occurring as a result of high oil temperatures, the PCM has the ability to initiate a soft engine shutdown. Whenever engine RPM exceeds a calibrated level for a certain period of time, the PCM begins reducing power by disabling engine cylinders.

A high concentration of oxygen (lean air/fuel ratio) in the exhaust produces a voltage signal less than 0.4 volt. A low concentration of oxygen (rich air/fuel ratio) produces a 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 a temperature of 800°C (1,472°F). At approximately 300°C (572°F) the engine can enter closed loop operation. The VPWR circuit supplies voltage to the heater. The PCM turns the heater on by providing the ground when the correct conditions occur. The heater allows the engine to enter closed loop operation sooner. The use of this heater requires the HO2S heater control to be duty cycled, to prevent damage to the heater.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 that is generated.

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.

The redundant ETB position signals are required for increased monitoring. The first ETB position sensor signal (TP1) has a negative slope (increasing angle, decreasing voltage) and the second signal (TP2) has a positive slope (increasing angle, increasing voltage). During normal operation the negative slope ETB position sensor signal (TP1) is used by the control strategy as the indication of throttle position. The 2 ETB position sensor signals make sure the PCM receives a correct input even if 1 signal has a concern. There is 1 reference voltage circuit and 1 signal return circuit for the sensor.

The sensor housing has a 3-blade electrical connector that may be gold plated. The gold plating increases the corrosion resistance on the terminals and increases the connector durability. The TP sensor is mounted on the throttle body. As the TP sensor is rotated by the throttle shaft, 4 operating conditions are determined by the PCM from the TP. The operating 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) - throttle angle rate Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Throttle Position Sensor > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 3411 Throttle Position Sensor: Service and Repair THROTTLE POSITION (TP) SENSOR Removal Vehicles equipped with a 4.6L (3V) engine 1.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

There are 4 types of VCT systems. Exhaust phase shifting (EPS) system - the exhaust cam is the active cam being retarded. - Intake phase shifting (IPS) system - the intake cam is the active cam being advanced. - Dual equal phase shifting (DEPS) system - both intake and exhaust cams are phase shifted and equally advanced or retarded. - Dual independent phase shifting (DIPS) system - where both the intake and exhaust cams are shifted independently. All systems have 4 operational modes: idle, part throttle, wide open throttle (WOT), and default mode. At idle and low engine speeds with closed throttle, the powertrain control module (PCM) determines the phase angle based on air flow, engine oil temperature and engine coolant temperature. At part and wide open throttle the PCM determines the phase angle based on engine RPM, load, and throttle position. VCT systems provide reduced emissions and enhanced engine power, fuel economy and idle quality. IPS systems also have the added benefit of improved torque. In addition, some VCT system applications can eliminate the need for an external exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system. The elimination of the EGR system is accomplished by controlling the overlap time between the intake valve opening and exhaust valve closing. Currently, both the IPS and DEPS systems are used. Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) System VCT System The VCT system consists of an electric hydraulic positioning control solenoid, a camshaft position (CMP) sensor, and a trigger wheel. The CMP trigger wheel has a number of equally spaced teeth equal to the number (n) of cylinders on a bank plus one extra tooth (n+1). Four cylinder and V8 engines use a CMP 4+1 tooth trigger wheel. V6 engines use a CMP 3+1 tooth trigger wheel. The extra tooth placed between the equally spaced teeth represents the CMP signal for that bank. A crankshaft position sensor (CKP) provides the PCM with crankshaft positioning information in 10 degree increments. 1. The PCM receives input signals from the intake air temperature (IAT) sensor, engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor, engine oil temperature (EOT) sensor, CMP, throttle position (TP) sensor, mass air flow (MAF) sensor, and CKP to determine the operating conditions of the engine. At idle and low engine speeds with closed throttle, the PCM controls the camshaft position based on ECT, EOT, IAT, and MAF. During part and wide open throttle, the camshaft position is determined by engine RPM, load and throttle position. The VCT system does not operate until the engine is at normal operating temperature. 2. The VCT system is enabled by the PCM when the correct conditions are met. 3. The CKP signal is used as a reference for CMP positioning. 4. The VCT solenoid valve is an integral part of the VCT system. The solenoid valve controls the flow of engine oil in the VCT actuator assembly. As the PCM controls the duty cycle of the solenoid valve, oil pressure/flow advances or retards the cam timing. Duty cycles near 0% or 100% represent rapid movement of the camshaft. Retaining a fixed camshaft position is accomplished by dithering (oscillating) the solenoid valve duty cycle. The PCM calculates and determines the desired camshaft position. It continually updates the VCT solenoid duty cycle until the desired position is achieved. A difference between the desired and actual camshaft position represents a position error in the PCM VCT control loop. The PCM disables the VCT and places the camshaft in a default position if a concern is detected. A related DTC is also set when the concern is detected. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Variable Valve Timing Actuator > Component Information > Diagrams > Page 3451 5. When the VCT solenoid is energized, engine oil is allowed to flow to the VCT actuator assembly which advances or retards the camshaft timing. One half of the VCT actuator is coupled to the camshaft and the other half is connected to the timing chain. Oil chambers between the 2 halves couple the camshaft to the timing chain. When the flow of oil is shifted from one side of the chamber to the other, the differential change in oil pressure forces the camshaft to rotate in either an advance or retard position depending on the oil flow.

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 that is generated.

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.

When the secondary 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 system.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Emission Control Systems > Catalytic Converter > Component Information > Description and Operation Catalytic Converter: Description and Operation CATALYST AND EXHAUST SYSTEMS Overview V-Engines In-Line Engines The catalytic converter and exhaust Systems 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). The major air pollutants of CO, NOx, and HCs, and their emission into the atmosphere must be controlled. The exhaust system generally consists of an exhaust manifold, front exhaust pipe, front heated oxygen sensor (HO2S), rear exhaust pipe, catalyst HO2S, a muffler, and an exhaust tailpipe. The catalytic converter is typically installed between the front and rear exhaust pipes. On some vehicle applications, more than one catalyst is used between the front and rear exhaust pipes. Catalytic converter efficiency is monitored by the on board diagnostic (OBD) system strategy in the PCM. For information on the OBD catalyst monitor, refer to the description for the Catalyst Efficiency Monitor. See: Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes/Monitors/Catalyst Efficiency Monitor The number of HO2Ss used in the exhaust stream and the location of these sensors depend on the vehicle emission certification level (LEV, LEV-II, ULEV, PZEV). On most vehicles only 2 HO2Ss are used in an exhaust stream. The front sensors (HO2S11/HO2S21) before the catalyst are used for primary fuel control while the ones after the catalyst (HO2S12/HO2S22) are used to monitor catalyst efficiency. However, some partial zero emission vehicles (PZEV) use 3 HO2Ss for each engine bank. The stream 1 sensors (HO2S11/HO2S21) located before the catalyst are used for primary fuel control, the stream 2 sensors (HO2S12/HO2S22) are used to monitor the light-off catalyst, and the stream 3 sensors (HO2S13/HO2S23) located after the catalyst are used for long term fuel trim control to optimize catalyst efficiency (fore aft oxygen sensor control). Current PZEV vehicles use only a 4-cylinder engine, so only the bank 1 HO2Ss are used. Catalytic Converter Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Emission Control Systems > Catalytic Converter > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 3474 A catalyst is a material that remains unchanged when it initiates and increases the speed of a chemical reaction. A catalyst also enables 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 246°C to 302°C (475°F to 575°F). A fast light catalyst is a 3-way catalyst (TWC) that is located as close to the exhaust manifold as possible. Because the light off catalyst is located close to the exhaust manifold it lights off faster and reduces emissions more quickly than the catalyst located under the body. Once the catalyst lights off, the catalyst quickly reaches the maximum conversion efficiency for that catalyst. Three-Way Catalyst (TWC) Conversion Efficiency 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. Deviations outside of this window greatly decrease the conversion efficiency. For example a rich mixture decreases the HC and CO conversion efficiency while a lean mixture decreases the NOx conversion efficiency. Exhaust System Typical Bank 1 Catalyst 2 HO2S Configuration Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Emission Control Systems > Catalytic Converter > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 3475 Typical Bank 1 Catalyst 3 HO2S Configuration 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. A HO2S is mounted on the front exhaust pipe before the catalyst. The catalytic converter reduces the concentration of CO, unburned HCs, and NOx in the exhaust emissions to an acceptable level. The reduced exhaust emissions are directed from the catalytic converter past another HO2S mounted in the rear exhaust pipe and then on into the muffler. Finally, the exhaust emissions are directed to the atmosphere through an exhaust tailpipe. On some PZEV, there is a total of 3 HO2S in the exhaust stream. One near the exhaust manifold (stream 1), one in the middle of the light-off catalyst (stream 2), and the third (stream 3) is mounted after the light-off catalyst. Underbody Catalyst The underbody catalyst is located after the light off catalyst. The underbody catalyst may be in line with the light off catalyst, or the underbody catalyst may be common to 2 light off catalysts, forming a Y pipe configuration. For an exact configuration of the catalyst and exhaust system for a specific vehicle, refer to Catalytic Converter, Exhaust System. Three-Way Catalytic (TWC) Converter The 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 3-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. Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) The HO2Ss provide the powertrain control module (PCM) with voltage and frequency information related to the oxygen content of the exhaust gas. 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 also reduces the noise produced by exhaust gases as they travel from the catalytic converter to the atmosphere.

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.

The assembly provides the flow path for the EGR to the intake manifold and also contains the metering orifice and 2 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.

The motor is commanded to move in 52 discrete steps as it acts directly on the EEGR valve. The position of the valve determines the rate of EGR. The built-in spring works to close the valve (against the motor opening force).

The various system components have been integrated into a single component called the ESM. The flange of the valve portion of the ESM bolts directly to the intake manifold with a metal gasket that forms the metering orifice. This arrangement increases system reliability, response time, and system precision. By relocating the EGR orifice from the exhaust to the intake side of the EGR valve, the downstream pressure signal measures manifold absolute pressure (MAP). This MAP signal is used for EGR correction and inferred barometric pressure (BARO) at key on. The system provides the powertrain control module (PCM) with a differential pressure feedback EGR signal, identical to a traditional differential pressure feedback EGR system.

The valve increases or decreases the flow of EGR. 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 repair specifications on flow rate is impractical. The on board diagnostic (OBD) system monitors the EGR valve function and triggers a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) if the test criteria is not met. The EGR valve flow rate is not measured directly as part of the diagnostic procedures.

Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at 200°C (392°F) above the ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire. The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the mass air 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. This input is also used in determining transmission electronic pressure control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling. The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner assembly. Most MAF sensors have integrated bypass technology with an integrated intake air temperature (IAT) sensor. The hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced as an assembly. Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.

The fuel injector is opened and closed a constant number of times per crankshaft revolution. The amount of fuel is controlled by the length of time the fuel injector is held open. The fuel injector is normally closed, and is operated by a 12-volt source from either the electronic engine control (EEC) power relay or fuel pump relay. The ground signal is controlled by the PCM. The injector is the deposit resistant injector (DRI) type and does not have to be cleaned. However, it can be flow checked and, if found outside of specification, a new fuel injector should be installed.

The electrical resistance of a strain gauge increases as pressure increases, and the resistance decreases as the 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.

The sensor uses the intake manifold vacuum as a reference to determine the pressure difference between the fuel rail and the intake manifold. The relationship between fuel pressure and fuel temperature is used to determine the possible presence of fuel vapor in the fuel rail. The temperature sensing portion of the FRPT sensor is a thermistor device in which resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to temperature. Both the pressure and temperature signals are used to control the speed of the fuel pump. The speed of the fuel pump sustains fuel rail pressure which preserves 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.

A flapper valve located in the bottom of the reservoir allows fuel to enter the reservoir and prime the fuel pump during the initial fill. FUEL PUMP (FP) MODULE AND RESERVOIR The FP module is mounted inside the fuel tank in a reservoir. The pump has a discharge check valve that maintains the system pressure after the key has been turned off to minimize starting concerns. The reservoir prevents fuel flow interruptions during extreme vehicle maneuvers with low tank fill levels.

The sensor uses the intake manifold vacuum as a reference to determine the pressure difference between the fuel rail and the intake manifold. The relationship between fuel pressure and fuel temperature is used to determine the possible presence of fuel vapor in the fuel rail. The temperature sensing portion of the FRPT sensor is a thermistor device in which resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases as the temperature increases, and the resistance increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance changes the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to temperature. Both the pressure and temperature signals are used to control the speed of the fuel pump. The speed of the fuel pump sustains fuel rail pressure which preserves 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.

Some IAC valves require engine vacuum to operate. The IAC valve assembly controls the engine idle speed and provides a dashpot 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. 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 dashpot function) - over-temperature idle boost Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch > Component Information > Locations View 151-11 (behind Dash Panel) Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch > Component Information > Locations > Page 3732 C282 Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch > Component Information > Locations > Page 3733 Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch: Description and Operation INERTIA FUEL SHUTOFF (IFS) SWITCH Typical Inertia Fuel Shutoff (IFS) Switch The IFS switch is used in conjunction with the electric fuel pump.

Air passing over the hot wire causes it to cool. This hot wire is maintained at 200°C (392°F) above the ambient temperature as measured by a constant cold wire. The current required to maintain the temperature of the hot wire is proportional to the mass air 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. This input is also used in determining transmission electronic pressure control (EPC), shift and torque converter clutch scheduling. The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner assembly. Most MAF sensors have integrated bypass technology with an integrated intake air temperature (IAT) sensor. The hot wire electronic sensing element must be replaced as an assembly. Replacing only the element may change the air flow calibration.

The electrical resistance of a strain gauge increases as pressure increases, and the resistance decreases as the 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.

The sensor housing has a 3-blade electrical connector that may be gold plated. The gold plating increases the corrosion resistance on the terminals and increases the connector durability. The TP sensor is mounted on the throttle body. As the TP sensor is rotated by the throttle shaft, 4 operating conditions are determined by the PCM from the TP. The operating 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) - throttle angle rate Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Throttle Position Sensor > Component Information > Description and Operation > Page 3815 Throttle Position Sensor: Service and Repair THROTTLE POSITION (TP) SENSOR Removal Vehicles equipped with a 4.6L (3V) engine 1.

The COP has 3 different modes of operation: engine crank, engine running, and CMP failure mode effects management (FMEM). COIL PACK Typical Four-Tower Coil Pack Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Ignition System > Ignition Coil > Component Information > Diagrams > Page 3857 Typical Six-Tower Coil Pack The PCM provides a grounding switch for the coil primary circuit. When the switch is closed, voltage is applied to the coil primary circuit. This creates a magnetic field around the primary coil. The PCM opens the switch, causing the magnetic field to collapse, inducing the high voltage in the secondary coil windings and firing the spark plug. The spark plugs are paired so that as one spark plug fires on the compression stroke, the other spark plug fires on the exhaust stroke. The next time the coil is fired the order is reversed. The next pair of spark plugs fire according to the engine firing order. Coil packs come in 4-tower, 6-tower horizontal and series 5 6-tower models. Two adjacent coil towers share a common coil and are called a matched pair. For 6-tower coil pack (6 cylinder) applications, the matched pairs are 1 and 5, 2 and 6, and 3 and 4. For 4-tower coil pack (4 cylinder) applications, the matched pairs are 1 and 4, and 2 and 3. 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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Transmission Control Systems > Actuators and Solenoids Transmission and Drivetrain > Actuators and Solenoids - A/T > Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3984 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

The BPP switch provides a signal to the PCM indicating that the brakes are applied. The BPP switch is normally open and is mounted on the brake pedal support. Depending on the vehicle application the BPP switch can be hardwired as follows: - to the PCM supplying battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is applied. - to the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, or lighting control module (LCM), the BPP signal is then broadcast over the network to be received by the PCM. - to the ABS traction control/stability assist module. The ABS module interprets the BPP switch input along with other ABS inputs and generates an output called the driver brake application (DBA) signal. The DBA signal is then sent to the PCM and to other BPP signal users.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

PARK is a good position to check for intermittent open circuits (with scan tool monitoring TRD). ^ TR4, TR3A, TR2 and TR1 are all open in OVERDRIVE, so OVERDRIVE is a good position to check for shorts to ground. To determine the shorted components while observing TRD, unplug the TR and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present unplug the transmission harness and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present, then the short is in the PCM or vehicle harness. Remove the suspect circuit(s) wire terminal from the PCM connector. If the short is still present, then the PCM has an internal failure, otherwise the failure is in the vehicle harness.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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 loss of 2nd, 3rd and 5th gear, may have overdrive band or intermediate band failures due to servo pin case bore wear causing reduced apply pressure. ACTION Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition. SERVICE PROCEDURE For transmissions that have been determined to require an overhaul or rebuild and the overdrive band or intermediate band have excessive wear or burned/damaged band friction material, the cause maybe excessive servo pin case bore wear generally found on higher mileage vehicles, usually accompanied with incorrect ratio diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), condition becomes worse when hot. (Figure 1) In our instructions, when we refer to the overdrive bore, we are talking about the smaller bore located closest to the bell housing. When we refer to the intermediate bore, we are talking about the larger bore located next to the line pressure tap. Inspect and repair the worn-damaged transmission case servo pin bore utilizing the Rotunda Tool 5RW Master Kit part number NRL5RW servo pin bore repair system (1-800-768-8632 option 6).

Install the drill jig into the case by setting the jig into the case servo bore. Retain the jig in the case with the servo's snap-ring. (Figure 2) 2. Drop the 9/16" guide into the jig. It doesn't matter which one of the lands on the guide you use, as long as one of the lands is under the 3/8" Allen screw. NOTE CUTTING OIL MUST BE USED FOR LUBRICATION. THE USE OF SUBSTITUTES, PARTICULARLY ATF, MAY RESULT IN AN OVER-SIZED BORE. 3. Ream out the bore using the 9/16" reamer applying ample lubrication. NOTE DO NOT REAM ABOVE 500 RPM. (Figure 3) 4. Replace the 9/16" reamer guide with the 5/8" guide, and the 9/16" reamer with the 5/8" reamer. 5. Ream the bore out using the 5/8" reamer with ample lubrication. Take care not to either push too hard on the reamer or turn the reamer faster than 500 RPM when reaming. Either one can overly enlarge the bore, causing a loose bushing. 6. Clean the case before proceeding to Step 7. This kit utilizes two different bushings.

The shorter bushing is for the intermediate servo and is identified by a flat ground in the bushing's hat. (Figure 4A) b. Overdrive servo bushing. (Figure 4B) c. Both bushings are chamfered and need to be installed with the recessed edge up (away from the valve body). 7. Apply Loctite® 680 Retaining Compound or equivalent to the outside of the bushing and drive the bushing in by hitting the driver until the bushing bottoms. (Figure 5) The 5RW kit uses a smaller diameter installation tool identified by a groove cut in the handle. 8. After installing the bushing, using a 15/64" bit, drill a hole in the side of the bushing by following the servo apply holes in the case 5R555 case shown.

WARRANTY STATUS: Information Only Disclaimer Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Brake Switch - TCC > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions Brake Switch - TCC: Diagram Information and Instructions Introduction 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 diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Brake Switch - TCC > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4501 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

The BPP switch provides a signal to the PCM indicating that the brakes are applied. The BPP switch is normally open and is mounted on the brake pedal support. Depending on the vehicle application the BPP switch can be hardwired as follows: - to the PCM supplying battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is applied. - to the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, or lighting control module (LCM), the BPP signal is then broadcast over the network to be received by the PCM. - to the ABS traction control/stability assist module. The ABS module interprets the BPP switch input along with other ABS inputs and generates an output called the driver brake application (DBA) signal. The DBA signal is then sent to the PCM and to other BPP signal users.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Sensors and Switches - A/T > Brake Switch - TCC > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions Brake Switch - TCC: Diagram Information and Instructions Introduction 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 diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Sensors and Switches - A/T > Brake Switch - TCC > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4695 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,catalytic converter and muffler. - Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery.

The BPP switch provides a signal to the PCM indicating that the brakes are applied. The BPP switch is normally open and is mounted on the brake pedal support. Depending on the vehicle application the BPP switch can be hardwired as follows: - to the PCM supplying battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is applied. - to the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, or lighting control module (LCM), the BPP signal is then broadcast over the network to be received by the PCM. - to the ABS traction control/stability assist module. The ABS module interprets the BPP switch input along with other ABS inputs and generates an output called the driver brake application (DBA) signal. The DBA signal is then sent to the PCM and to other BPP signal users.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

PARK is a good position to check for intermittent open circuits (with scan tool monitoring TRD). ^ TR4, TR3A, TR2 and TR1 are all open in OVERDRIVE, so OVERDRIVE is a good position to check for shorts to ground. To determine the shorted components while observing TRD, unplug the TR and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present unplug the transmission harness and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present, then the short is in the PCM or vehicle harness. Remove the suspect circuit(s) wire terminal from the PCM connector. If the short is still present, then the PCM has an internal failure, otherwise the failure is in the vehicle harness.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Sensors and Switches - A/T > Transmission Speed Sensor, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4820 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Throttle Position Sensor/Switch, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions Throttle Position Sensor/Switch: Diagram Information and Instructions Introduction 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 diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Throttle Position Sensor/Switch, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5008 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5039 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

NOTE: Cleaning and backflushing the transmission fluid cooling system (along with normal cleaning and inspection procedures, as outlined during disassembly and assembly) will keep contamination from reentering the transmission and causing a repeat repair. When internal wear or damage has occurred in the transmission, metal particles, clutch plate material or band material may have been carried into the torque converter and transmission fluid cooler. These contaminants are a major cause of recurring transmission troubles and must be removed from the system before the transmission is put back in use. Inspection and Verification When fluid leakage is found in the fluid cooler, install a new fluid cooler. When there is evidence of transmission assembly or fluid contamination due to these transmission failure modes, install a new fluid cooler. ^ Major metallic failure ^ Multiple clutches or clutch plate failure ^ Sufficient component wear which results in metallic contamination Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Transmission Cooler, A/T > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview > Page 5066 Transmission Cooler: Symptom Related Diagnostic Procedures Symptom Chart Symptom Chart Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Transmission Cooler, A/T > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview > Page 5067 Transmission Cooler: Component Tests and General Diagnostics Transmission Fluid Cooler Special Tool(s) Material Transmission Fluid Cooler Flow Test CAUTION: Whenever a transmission has been disassembled to install new parts or a new or remanufactured transmission has been installed, a new transmission fluid cooler (either in-tank, auxiliary or OTA) if equipped, will need to be installed. Using a suitable torque converter/fluid cooler cleaner, clean and backflush the transmission fluid cooler tubes. CAUTION: Use only clean automatic transmission fluid specified for this transmission. Do not use supplemental fluid additives, treatments or cleaning agents. The use of these materials may affect transmission operation and result in internal damage to the transmission. CAUTION: When internal wear or damage has occurred in the transmission, metal particles, clutch plate material or band material may have been carried into the transmission fluid cooler. These contaminants are a major cause of recurring transmission concerns and must be removed from the system before the transmission is put back into use. When evidence of transmission fluid contamination (such as metal particles, clutch plate material or band material) is found in the cooling system, the transmission fluid cooler flow test should be carried out. If the transmission cooling system fails the transmission fluid cooler flow test, install a new transmission fluid cooler and flush out the fluid cooler lines. If installing a new transmission fluid cooler, use only factory approved components. CAUTION: The transmission fluid must be at normal operating temperature 85°C - 93°C (185°F 200°F) to make sure that the cooler bypass is open. The cooler bypass is located in the main control valve body. The transmission fluid at normal operating temperature will be hot. NOTE: The engine idle, transmission linkage/cable adjustment, fluid level and line pressure must be within specification before carrying out this test. For information on engine idle diagnosis, refer to Computers and Control Systems. For information on fluid level check, refer to Transmission Fluid Level Check. See: Fluid - A/T/Service and Repair/Transmission Fluid Level Check 1. Place the transmission range selector lever into PARK. 2. Raise the vehicle on a hoist and place suitable safety stands under the vehicle. Refer to Maintenance/Service and Repair. 3.

Reconnect the cooler return line to the case (upper fitting). ^ Tighten to 40 Nm (30 ft. lbs.) 13. Repeat Steps 8 through 11. If flow is now approximately 208 ml (7 oz) in 15 seconds, the cooler lines and auxiliary cooler must be cleaned. Carry out this entire test after the backflushing and cleaning procedure. If, after carrying out the backflushing and cleaning procedure, the flow is still not adequate, new cooler lines and/or an auxiliary cooler must be installed. If the flow from the case is still not adequate after the installation of new cooler lines and/or an auxiliary cooler (208 ml [7 oz] in 15 seconds), the pump and/or torque converter may be at fault. Carry out the appropriate procedures for diagnosis and repair.

Using a suitable torque converter/fluid cooler cleaner, clean and backflush the transmission fluid cooler tubes. CAUTION: Do not use water-based cleaners, mineral spirits, brake cleaner or solvents that may contain acetone, xylene or heptane to clean and/or flush the transmission assembly, transmission components and the torque converter or transmission damage will occur. Use only clean transmission fluid designated for the transmission/converter being serviced. When internal wear or damage has occurred in the transmission, metal particles, clutch plate material or band material may have been carried into the transmission fluid cooler. These contaminants are a major cause of recurring transmission concerns and must be removed from the system before the transmission is put back in use. 1. Conduct backflushing with a suitable torque converter/transmission fluid cooler cleaner. Test the equipment to make sure that a vigorous fluid flow is present before proceeding. Install a new system filter if flow is weak or contaminated. 2. Remove and discard the in-line transmission fluid filter, if equipped. 3. To aid in attaching the cleaner to the transmission steel cooler lines, connect 2 additional rubber hoses to the transmission end of the steel transmission cooler lines as described. ^ Connect the cleaner tank pressure line to the steel transmission cooler return line (longest line). ^ Connect a tank return hose to the steel transmission cooler pressure line (shorter line). Place the outlet end of this hose in the solvent tank reservoir. 4. Turn on the pump and allow the transmission fluid to circulate a minimum of 5 minutes (cycling switch on and off will help dislodge contaminants in the cooler system). 5. Switch off the pump and disconnect the pressure hose from the transmission cooler return line. 6. Use compressed air to blow out the cooler(s) and lines (blow air into the transmission cooler return line) until all the fluid is removed. 7. Remove the rubber return hose from the remaining steel cooler line.

PARK is a good position to check for intermittent open circuits (with scan tool monitoring TRD). ^ TR4, TR3A, TR2 and TR1 are all open in OVERDRIVE, so OVERDRIVE is a good position to check for shorts to ground. To determine the shorted components while observing TRD, unplug the TR and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present unplug the transmission harness and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present, then the short is in the PCM or vehicle harness. Remove the suspect circuit(s) wire terminal from the PCM connector. If the short is still present, then the PCM has an internal failure, otherwise the failure is in the vehicle harness.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Transmission Speed Sensor, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5153 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5190 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

A circlip stopper holds the inboard race assembly (inboard CV joint) together. ^ An axle circlip retains the splined inboard CV joint to the differential side gear. Install a new axle circlip every time the halfshaft is removed from the vehicle. ^ A rear axle wheel end nut secures the side shaft assembly (interconnecting shaft and outboard CV joint) to the rear hub. Install a new rear axle wheel end nut every time you remove the halfshaft from the vehicle. ^ Install a new differential stub shaft seal every time the halfshaft is removed. Halfshaft Handling CAUTION: Never pick up or hold the halfshaft by the inboard or outboard CV joint only. NOTE: Only the inner CV joints are removable for installation of new CV boots and clamps. The boots and clamps are the only serviced parts of the halfshaft assembly. Handle all halfshaft components carefully during removal and installation procedures. ^ The halfshaft assemblies are not repairable. Install new assemblies if worn/damaged. ^ To separate the halfshaft from the rear hub, press the outboard CV joint from the rear hub. ^ To separate the halfshaft from the differential, apply a load to the back face of the inboard CV joint assembly to overcome the axle circlip. ^ Do not overangle the CV joints. ^ Damage will occur to an assembled inboard CV joint if it is overplunged outward from the joint housing. ^ Never use a hammer to remove or install the halfshafts. ^ Never use the halfshaft assembly as a lever to position other components. Always support the free end of the halfshaft. ^ Do not allow the boots to contact sharp edges or hot exhaust components. ^ Handle the halfshaft by the interconnecting shaft only to avoid pull-apart and potential damage to the CV joints. ^ Do not drop assembled halfshafts. The impact can cut the boots from the inside without evidence of external damage. Wheel and Tire Balancing, Rear WARNING: Do not balance the rear wheels and tires while mounted on the vehicle. Hoisting CAUTION: Use a frame-contact hoist only. Vehicle or component damage can result if other types of hoists are used. For additional information, refer to Maintenance/Service and Repair. Never raise the vehicle using the halfshafts as lift points. Undercoating and Rustproofing During undercoating and rustproofing procedures, protect the boots from the coating materials. Foreign materials on the rubber boots will cause extreme advanced wear.

For this reason, be sure that the cause of the concern is in the axle before disassembling, adjusting or repairing the axle. Refer to Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. Certain driveshaft vibration symptoms are common to the front engine accessory drive (FEAD), the engine, transmission or tires. Be sure the cause of the concern is the driveshaft before repairing or installing a new driveshaft. Refer to Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. Noise Acceptability A gear-driven unit will produce a certain amount of noise. Some noise is acceptable and audible at certain speeds or under various driving conditions, such as a newly paved blacktop road. Slight noise is not detrimental to the operation of the axle and is considered normal. Universal Joint (U-Joint) Inspection Place the vehicle on a frame hoist and rotate the driveshaft by hand. Check for rough operation or seized U-joints. Install a new U-joint if it shows signs of seizure, excessive wear or incorrect seating. Analysis of Leakage Clean up the leaking area enough to identify the exact source. An axle leak can be caused by: ^ Axle lubricant level is too high ^ Worn or damaged axle shaft seals or differential seals ^ Differential housing is cracked ^ Flange yoke seal is worn or damaged ^ Pinion flange is scored or damaged ^ Axle cover is not sealed ^ Vent is plugged Repair the axle as necessary. Make sure the axle lubricant is at the correct level. Axle Vent NOTE: If a plugged vent cannot be cleared, install a new vent. NOTE: If the vent is removed from the housing for any reason, a new vent must be installed. A plugged vent will cause excessive seal lip wear due to internal pressure buildup. If a leak occurs, check the vent. Make sure the vent hose is not kinked. Remove the hose from the vent nipple and clear the hose of any foreign material. While the hose is removed, pass a length of mechanic's wire or a small diameter Allen wrench in and out of the vent to clean it. Connect the hose when done. Flange Yoke Seal Leaks at the axle drive pinion seal originate for these reasons: ^ The seal is not correctly installed ^ A poor quality seal journal surface Any damage to the seal bore (dings, dents, gouges or other imperfections) will distort the seal casing and allow leakage past the outer edge of the axle drive pinion seal. The axle drive pinion seal can be torn, cut or gouged if it is not installed carefully. The spring that holds the axle drive pinion seal against the pinion flange can be knocked out, which can allow leakage past the lip. The rubber lips can occasionally become hard (like plastic) with cracks at the oil lip contact point. The contact point on the pinion flange may blacken, indicating excessive heat. Marks, nicks, gouges or rough surface texture on the seal journal of the pinion flange will also cause leaks. A new pinion flange must be installed if any of these conditions exist. Metal chips or sand trapped at the sealing lip can also cause oil leaks. This can cause a wear groove on the pinion flange and heavy pinion seal wear. When a seal leak occurs, install a new seal and check the vent and the vent hose to make sure they are clean and free of foreign material. Analysis of Vibration WARNING: An all-wheel drive (AWD) vehicle will always have all wheels (on both axles) driving. If only one wheel/axle is raised off the floor and the axle is driven by the engine, the wheel/axle on the floor could drive the vehicle off the stand or jack. Be sure all wheels are off the floor. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Drive Axles, Bearings and Joints > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 5368 Few vibration conditions are caused by the front or rear axle. For a vibration concern, follow the diagnosis procedure in Vehicle/Testing and Inspection unless there is a good reason to suspect the axle. Tires WARNING: Do not balance the wheels and tires while they are mounted on the vehicle. Possible tire disintegration or differential failure could result, causing personal injury or extensive component damage. Use an off-vehicle wheel and tire balancer only. Most vibration is caused by tires, driveline angle or driveline imbalance. Vibration is a concern with modern, high-mileage tires if they are not "true" both radially and laterally. They are more susceptible to vibration around the limits of radial and lateral runout of the tire and wheel assembly. They also require more accurate balancing. Wheel and tire runout checks, truing and balancing are normally done before axle inspection. Driveline Imbalance Driveline imbalance can be caused by excessive looseness in the driveshaft, damaged driveshaft tubing, looseness or high runout at the driveshaft attachments (axle and transfer case flanges). Excessive looseness in the driveshaft can be caused by CV joint or universal joint wear, as well as loose fitting slip-yoke splines. Inspect and install new driveshaft components as necessary. Driveline Angle Driveline Angle Driveline angularity is the angular relationship between the engine crankshaft, the driveshaft and the rear axle pinion. Some of the factors determining driveline angularity include ride height, rear spring and engine mounts. An incorrect driveline (pinion) angle can often be detected by examining the driving condition in which the vibration occurs. ^ A vibration during coastdown, from 72 to 56 km/h (45 to 35 mph), is often caused by an excessive U-joint angle at the axle (pinion nose downward). ^ A vibration during acceleration, from 56 to 72 km/h (35 to 45 mph), may indicate an excessive U-joint angle at the axle (pinion nose upward). When these conditions exist, check the driveline angles.

Check for rough operation or seized U-joints. Install a new U-joint if it shows signs of seizure, excessive wear or incorrect seating. Wheel Hub Bolt Circle Runout NOTE: The brake discs must be removed to carry out all runout measurements. 1. Position the special tool on the wheel hub bolt, as close to the hub face as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way. 2. Rotate the hub until the next bolt is contacted. Record the measurement and continue until each bolt is checked. The difference between the maximum and minimum contact readings will be the total wheel hub bolt circle runout. The runout must not exceed 0.38 mm (0.015 inch). Pilot Runout 1. Position the special tools on the pilot, as close to the hub as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way. 2. Rotate the hub one full turn and note the maximum and minimum readings. The difference between the maximum and minimum readings will be the total pilot runout. Pilot runout must not exceed 0.15 mm (0.006 inch). Wheel Hub Runout 1. Position the special tool on the wheel hub, as close to the outer edge as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way. 2. Rotate the hub one full turn and note the maximum and minimum readings. The difference between the maximum and minimum readings will be the total wheel hub runout. The runout must not exceed 0.127 mm (0.005 inch). Drive Pinion Stem and Pinion Flange Check the pinion flange runout when all other checks have failed to show the cause of the vibration. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Drive Axles, Bearings and Joints > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 5370 One cause of excessive pinion flange runout is incorrect installation of the axle drive pinion seal. Check to determine if the spring on the seal lip has been dislodged. Halfshafts NOTE: Constant velocity (CV) joints must not be installed unless disassembly and inspection reveals unusual wear. NOTE: While inspecting the boots, watch for indentations ("dimples") in the boot convolutions. Indentations must be removed. ^ Inspect the boots for evidence of cracks, tears or splits. ^ Inspect the underbody for any indication of grease splatter near the boots outboard and inboard locations. This is an indication of boot/clamp damage. Axle Noise NOTE: Before disassembling the axle to diagnose and correct gear noise, eliminate the tires, exhaust, trim items, roof racks and wheel bearings as possible causes. Follow the diagnostic procedures in Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. The noises described as follows usually have specific causes that can be diagnosed by observation as the unit is disassembled. The initial clues are the type of noise heard during the road test. Gear Howl and Whine Howling or whining of the ring gear and pinion is due to an incorrect gear pattern, gear damage or incorrect bearing preload. Bearing Whine Bearing whine is a high-pitched sound similar to a whistle. It is usually caused by worn/damaged pinion bearings, which are operating at driveshaft speed. Bearing noise occurs at all driving speeds. This distinguishes it from gear whine which usually comes and goes as speed changes. As noted, pinion bearings make a high-pitched, whistling noise, usually at all speeds. If however there is only one pinion bearing that is worn/damaged, the noise may vary in different driving phases. New pinion bearings must not be installed unless they are scored or damaged, or there is a specific pinion bearing noise. A worn/damaged bearing will normally be obvious at disassembly. Examine the large end of the rollers for wear. If the pinion bearings original blend radius has worn to a sharp edge, a new pinion bearing must be installed. A wheel bearing noise can be mistaken for a pinion bearing noise. On rear wheel drive (RWD) vehicles, check the wheel bearing for a spalled cup and spalled/damaged rollers. Install a new wheel bearing if any of these concerns are detected. On four wheel drive (4WD) vehicles, check the wheel bearing for rotating smoothness and end play. Chuckle Chuckle that occurs on the coast driving phase is usually caused by excessive clearance between the differential gear hub and the differential case bore. Damage to a gear tooth on the coast side can cause a noise identical to a chuckle. A very small tooth nick or ridge on the edge of a tooth can cause the noise. Clean the gear tooth nick or ridge with a small grinding wheel. If the damaged area is larger than 3.2 mm (1/8 inch), install a new gearset. To check the ring gear and pinion, remove as much lubricant as possible from the gears with clean solvent. Wipe the gears dry or blow them dry with compressed air. Look for scored or damaged teeth. Also look for cracks or other damage. If either gear is scored or damaged badly, a new ring gear and pinion must be installed. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Drive Axles, Bearings and Joints > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 5371 If metal has broken loose, the axle housing must be cleaned to remove particles that will cause damage. At this time, any other damaged parts in the axle housing must also be installed new. Knock Knock, which can occur in all driving phases, has several causes including damaged teeth or gearset. 1. NOTE: Measure the end play with a Dial Indicator with Bracketry and not by feel. Knock is also caused by excessive end play in the axle shafts. Up to 0.762 mm (0.030 inch) is allowed in semi-float axles. The frequency of the knock will be less because the axle shaft speed is slower than the driveshaft. Clunk Clunk is a metallic noise heard when the automatic transmission is engaged in REVERSE or DRIVE. The noise can also occur when throttle is applied or released. It is caused by backlash somewhere in the driveline or loose suspension components; it is felt or heard in the axle. Additionally, clunk may be heard upon initial drive-away. This occurs as engine torque shifts vehicle weight, forcing changes in driveline angles which prevent the driveshaft slip-yoke from sliding on the output shaft. To correct this condition, lubricate the slip-yoke splines. Bearing Rumble Bearing rumble sounds like marbles being tumbled. This condition is usually caused by a worn/damaged wheel bearing. The lower pitch is because the wheel bearing turns at only about 1/3 of the driveshaft speed. Wheel bearing noise also may be high-pitched, similar to gear noise, but will be evident in all 4 driving modes. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Drive Axles, Bearings and Joints > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 5372 Wheel Hub: Testing and Inspection Rear Drive Axle/Differential - Ford 8.8-Inch Ring Gear Inspection and Verification Special Tool(s) Material The technician should have a thorough knowledge of driveline system operation and accepted general driveline guidelines to detect any problems. A gear driven unit will produce a certain amount of noise. Some noise is acceptable and audible at certain speeds or under various driving conditions. Certain conditions, such as road conditions and weather, will amplify normal vehicle noise. Certain rear axle and driveline concern symptoms are also common to the engine, transmission, rear wheel bearings and tire. For this reason, be sure the cause of the concern is in the axle before repairing or installing any axle components. This is a guide to diagnose a driveline concern: ^ Verify and document the customer concern. ^ Carry out a preliminary investigation. ^ Road test the vehicle. ^ Find the cause of the problem. ^ Inspect the components. 1. Verify and document the customer concern. 1 When was it first noticed? 2 Did it appear suddenly or gradually? 3 Did anything unusual occur that would coincide with it or precede it? 4 Has the driveline system been repaired before or new components installed? ^ Check the vehicle service record. Note any repairs other than driveline, such as brakes or suspension. 5 Are there any special conditions that will affect the concern or will alter the concern? For example, ^ road speed. ^ type of road. ^ drive mode. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Drive Axles, Bearings and Joints > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 5373 ^ temperature. ^ vehicle loaded or unloaded. 6 Is the condition constant or intermittent? Can the concern be duplicated at any time? 7 Check for TSBs. 2. NOTE: If the inspection reveals an obvious concern, repair the vehicle. Do a preliminary investigation. Visually inspect for obvious signs of damage. 1 Inspect the driveshaft: ^ for build up of any foreign material. ^ for damage, such as a bent tube or missing weights. ^ U-joints, CV joints or flex couplers for wear or damage. 2 Inspect the axle: ^ for signs of leakage at the drain or fill plug, differential seal, vent or halfshaft seals. a plugged vent or vent tube will cause a leak. ^ for damage, such as cracks, bent halfshafts or dented rear cover. ^ for missing fasteners. 3 Inspect other suspect components/systems: ^ inspect the suspension for broken springs, damaged shock absorbers and worn suspension bushings. ^ inspect the rear brake components - lines, cables and calipers. ^ inspect the tires; are they in good condition and do they match? 3. NOTE: A road test is necessary for any customer concern of noise or vibration. Road test the vehicle. 1 During the road test, use these driving methods to diagnose the problem. Is the concern most noticeable: ^ from a stop? ^ on shifts from REVERSE to DRIVE? ^ on turns? sweeping type turn. - tight turn (to the stop). ^ in DRIVE? accelerating the vehicle, definite throttle depression, applying engine torque. ^ in CRUISE? - maintaining a constant speed with the throttle applied. ^ in COAST? decelerating with the throttle closed. 2 Record when the concern occurs. Write down the kph (mph) range at which the noise/vibration occurs. 4. Find the cause of the problem. 1 Compare the inspection and road test results with the chart. 2 Use this diagnostic routine chart to identify the probable cause and know what corrective actions should be taken to repair the component/vehicle and to prevent a reoccurrence.

NOTE: If the conclusion of the road test points to an axle assembly section (ring and pinion or differential case) concern, carry out a visual inspection of the rear axle. Inspect the axle components. 1 Remove the axle assembly. 2 Remove the differential housing cover. Drain the axle lubricant through a white cloth. Check the fluid for: ^ any foreign material. ^ metal particles. ^ burnt odor. 3 NOTE: When inspecting the axle, do not clean the components immediately. Cleaning may remove diagnostic evidence. Inspect the axle components. ^ Look for: loose fasteners. - notches or visible steps or grooves created by wear. - pitting or cracking along gear contact lines. - scuffing or deformations. - discolorations. - nicks or ridges on gear teeth. ^ Clean the axle components for inspection. Remove as much lubricant as possible with clean solvent. Wipe the components or blow them dry with compressed air. ^ Re-inspect for: Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Drive Axles, Bearings and Joints > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 5375 - loose fasteners. - notches or visible steps or grooves created by wear. - pitting or cracking along gear contact lines. - scuffing or deformations. - discolorations. - nicks or ridges on gear teeth. ^ Check backlash and carry out a ring and pinion pattern test.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Power Take-Off > Component Information > Description and Operation Power Take-Off: Description and Operation POWER TAKE-OFF (PTO) SWITCH AND CIRCUITS The PTO circuit is used by the PCM to disable some of the on board diagnostics (OBD) monitors during PTO operation. The PTO switch is normally open. When the PTO unit is activated, the PTO switch is closed and battery voltage is supplied to the PTO input circuit. This indicates to the PCM that an additional load is being applied to the engine. The PTO indicator lamp illuminates when the PTO system is functioning correctly and flashes when the PTO system is damaged When the PTO unit is activated, the PCM disables some OBD monitors, which may not function reliably during PTO operation. Without the PTO circuit information to the PCM, false DTCs may be set during PTO operation. Prior to an Inspection/Maintenance test, operate the vehicle with the PTO disengaged long enough to successfully complete the OBD Monitors. PTO Circuits Description The 3 PTO input circuits are PTO mode, PTO engage, and PTO RPM. The PTO engage circuit is used when the operator is requesting the PCM to check the needed inputs required to initiate the PTO engagement. The PTO RPM circuit is used for the operator to request additional engine RPM for PTO operation.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

The BPP switch provides a signal to the PCM indicating that the brakes are applied. The BPP switch is normally open and is mounted on the brake pedal support. Depending on the vehicle application the BPP switch can be hardwired as follows: - to the PCM supplying battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is applied. - to the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, or lighting control module (LCM), the BPP signal is then broadcast over the network to be received by the PCM. - to the ABS traction control/stability assist module. The ABS module interprets the BPP switch input along with other ABS inputs and generates an output called the driver brake application (DBA) signal. The DBA signal is then sent to the PCM and to other BPP signal users.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

PARK is a good position to check for intermittent open circuits (with scan tool monitoring TRD). ^ TR4, TR3A, TR2 and TR1 are all open in OVERDRIVE, so OVERDRIVE is a good position to check for shorts to ground. To determine the shorted components while observing TRD, unplug the TR and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present unplug the transmission harness and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present, then the short is in the PCM or vehicle harness. Remove the suspect circuit(s) wire terminal from the PCM connector. If the short is still present, then the PCM has an internal failure, otherwise the failure is in the vehicle harness.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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.

The BPP switch provides a signal to the PCM indicating that the brakes are applied. The BPP switch is normally open and is mounted on the brake pedal support. Depending on the vehicle application the BPP switch can be hardwired as follows: - to the PCM supplying battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is applied. - to the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, or lighting control module (LCM), the BPP signal is then broadcast over the network to be received by the PCM. - to the ABS traction control/stability assist module. The ABS module interprets the BPP switch input along with other ABS inputs and generates an output called the driver brake application (DBA) signal. The DBA signal is then sent to the PCM and to other BPP signal users.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

PARK is a good position to check for intermittent open circuits (with scan tool monitoring TRD). ^ TR4, TR3A, TR2 and TR1 are all open in OVERDRIVE, so OVERDRIVE is a good position to check for shorts to ground. To determine the shorted components while observing TRD, unplug the TR and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present unplug the transmission harness and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present, then the short is in the PCM or vehicle harness. Remove the suspect circuit(s) wire terminal from the PCM connector. If the short is still present, then the PCM has an internal failure, otherwise the failure is in the vehicle harness.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Transmission Control Systems > Sensors and Switches Transmission and Drivetrain > Sensors and Switches - A/T > Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5908 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

For EMERGENCY MEDICAL INFORMATION seek medical advice. In the USA or Canada on Ford/Motorcraft products call: 1-800-959-3673. For additional information, consult the product Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) if available. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury. 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 brake fluid that has been drained from the hydraulic system. CAUTION: Brake fluid is harmful to painted and plastic surfaces. If brake fluid is spilled onto a painted or plastic surface, immediately wash it with water. NOTE: When any part of the hydraulic system has been disconnected for repair or new installation, air may get into the system and cause spongy brake pedal feel. This requires bleeding of the hydraulic system after it has been correctly connected. The hydraulic system can be gravity bled, manually bled or bled using pressure bleeding equipment. 1. NOTE: When a new brake master cylinder has been installed or the system has been emptied or partially emptied, it should be primed to prevent air from getting into the system. Disconnect the brake master cylinder tubes. 2. NOTE: Original equipment tubes are not intended to be used during this procedure. Install the 2 short brake tubes with the ends submerged in the brake master cylinder reservoir and fill the brake master cylinder reservoir with clean, specified brake fluid.

NOTE: Read the entire operating manual and view the video shipped with the lathe before installing, operating or repairing the lathe. NOTE: If the thickness of the brake disc is less than the minimum thickness to machine specification, install a new brake disc. This will make sure that the brake disc will be above minimum thickness after machining. NOTE: Do not machine new brake discs. NOTE: Lateral runout and disc thickness variation measurements are not required because correct adjustment of the on-vehicle brake lathe will make sure that these dimensions are within specifications. 1. NOTE: It is not necessary to disconnect the brake line from the brake caliper. Position the brake caliper and brake caliper anchor bracket aside. 2. For vehicles with a 2-piece brake disc and hub assembly: 1 Mark the brake disc and the wheel stud for correct indexing during re-assembly. 2 Remove the brake disc from the hub. 3 CAUTION: Do not use an abrasive sanding disc since it will remove paint or other protective finishes from the wheel or metal from the mounting surfaces, adversely affecting corrosion protection and brake disc lateral runout. Remove corrosion from the wheel mounting surface, both disc mounting surfaces and hub mounting surface. 4 Align the match marks and install the brake disc on the hub. 3. Machine the brake disc using an on-vehicle brake lathe. 1 Install the hub adapter and silencer belt if necessary. 2 Install the cutting lathe. 3 If the lathe is not self adjusting, adjust the lathe oscillation using a dial indicator. Total indicated reading (TIR) target is 0.000 mm (0.000 inch), maximum is 0.08 mm (0.003 inch). 4 Center the cutting head, adjust the cutting bits and install the chip deflector. 5 NOTE: The depth of cut should be between 0.10 and 0.20 mm (0.004 and 0.008 inch). Lighter cuts will cause the bit to heat up and wear faster. Heavier cuts will cause poor brake disc surface finish. Machine the brake disc. 6 Remove the lathe and, if installed, the silencer belt. 7 Remove the hub adapter. 4. Remove the metal shavings. 5. For vehicles with a 2-piece brake disc and hub assembly: 1 Remove the brake disc from the hub. 2 Remove metal shavings from the hub, the brake disc mounting surfaces and from the ABS sensors. 3 Apply anti-seize lubricant to the hub mounting surface to prevent corrosion. 4 Align the match marks and install the brake disc on the hub. 6. NOTE: It is not required to install new brake pads if friction material properties are within guidelines. For additional information, refer to Brake Pads. Install the brake caliper and brake caliper anchor bracket.

For additional information, consult the product Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) if available. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury. 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 brake fluid that has been drained from the hydraulic system. CAUTION: Brake fluid is harmful to painted and plastic surfaces. If brake fluid is spilled onto a painted or plastic surface, immediately wash it with water. NOTE: When any part of the hydraulic system has been disconnected for repair or new installation, air may get into the system and cause spongy brake pedal feel. This requires bleeding of the hydraulic system after it has been correctly connected. The hydraulic system can be gravity bled, manually bled or bled using pressure bleeding equipment. 1. NOTE: When a new brake master cylinder has been installed or the system has been emptied or partially emptied, it should be primed to prevent air from getting into the system. Disconnect the brake master cylinder tubes. 2. NOTE: Original equipment tubes are not intended to be used during this procedure. Install the 2 short brake tubes with the ends submerged in the brake master cylinder reservoir and fill the brake master cylinder reservoir with clean, specified brake fluid.

If the power assist fails, the brake system will continue to operate with increased brake pedal effort. Hose and Check Valve The power brake booster check valve: ^ is located on the front of the power brake booster. ^ is positioned between the power brake booster and the power brake booster hose. ^ closes when the engine is turned OFF. ^ traps engine vacuum in the power brake booster when in the CLOSED position. ^ retains vacuum to provide 2-3 power-assisted brake applications with the engine off. Active Brake Booster With Stability Assist The active brake booster functions like a conventional brake booster with the added feature that it can be actuated electrically by the stability assist module. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Brakes and Traction Control > Power Brake Assist > Vacuum Brake Booster > Component Information > Specifications > Page 6194 Vacuum Brake Booster: Testing and Inspection Brake Booster 1. Check the hydraulic brake system for leaks or insufficient fluid. 2. With the transmission in NEUTRAL, stop the engine and apply the parking brake. Apply the brake pedal several times to exhaust all vacuum in the system. 3. Apply the brake pedal and hold it in the applied position. Start the engine. If the vacuum system is operating, the brake pedal will tend to move downward under constant foot pressure. If no motion is felt, the brake booster system is not functioning. Continue with the following steps. 4. Remove the vacuum booster hose from the check valve connection. Manifold vacuum must be available at the check valve end of the vacuum booster hose with the engine at idle speed and the transmission in NEUTRAL. If manifold vacuum is available to the brake booster, connect the vacuum booster hose to the brake booster check valve and repeat Steps 2 and 3. 5. If no downward movement of the brake pedal is felt, install a new brake booster. 6. Operate the engine a minimum of 10 seconds at fast idle. Stop the engine, and let the vehicle stand for 10 minutes. Then apply the brake pedal with approximately 89 N (20 lbs.) of force. The brake pedal feel should be the same as that noted with the engine operating. If the brake pedal feels hard (no power assist), install a new brake booster check valve and retest. If the brake pedal feels spongy, bleed the hydraulic system to remove air. For additional information, refer to Brake System Bleeding.

Disconnect the brake booster solenoid electrical connector. 4. NOTE: The booster push rod clevis locking pin is a one-time use only part. Anytime the booster push rod clevis locking pin is removed a new booster push rod clevis locking pin should be used. Remove the booster push rod clevis locking pin and discard. 5. Disconnect the brake booster rod from the brake pedal and position aside. 6. NOTE: Use new nuts when installing the brake booster. Remove the 4 brake booster nuts and the booster. ^ To install, tighten to 22 Nm (16 ft. lbs.). 7. To install, reverse the removal procedure. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Brakes and Traction Control > Power Brake Assist > Vacuum Brake Booster Check Valve > Component Information > Testing and Inspection Vacuum Brake Booster Check Valve: Testing and Inspection Check Valve The function of the brake booster check valve is to allow manifold vacuum to enter the brake booster and prevent the escape of vacuum if manifold vacuum is lost during sustained full throttle operation. To test the function of the brake booster check valve: ^ Start and run the engine for at least 10 seconds ^ Operate the brake pedal to check for power assist ^ Disconnect the vacuum booster hose from the brake booster check valve. Do not remove the brake booster check valve from the brake booster There should be enough vacuum retained in the brake booster for at least one more power-assisted brake operation.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Charging System > Alternator > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6326 Fuse and Relay Information Fuse and Relay Information contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which fuses and relays are identified, numbered and named. Fuse and relay numbering and naming follow the indication of the fuse panel cover. In addition, for all removable relays, pin positions are added to illustrate proper orientation. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Charging System > Alternator > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6327 Power Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams shows the current feed circuits. 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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Charging System > Alternator > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6328 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

PARK is a good position to check for intermittent open circuits (with scan tool monitoring TRD). ^ TR4, TR3A, TR2 and TR1 are all open in OVERDRIVE, so OVERDRIVE is a good position to check for shorts to ground. To determine the shorted components while observing TRD, unplug the TR and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present unplug the transmission harness and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present, then the short is in the PCM or vehicle harness. Remove the suspect circuit(s) wire terminal from the PCM connector. If the short is still present, then the PCM has an internal failure, otherwise the failure is in the vehicle harness.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

Fuse and relay numbering and naming follow the indication of the fuse panel cover. In addition, for all removable relays, pin positions are added to illustrate proper orientation. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6479 Power Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams shows the current feed circuits. 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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6480 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6523 Fuse and Relay Information Fuse and Relay Information contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which fuses and relays are identified, numbered and named. Fuse and relay numbering and naming follow the indication of the fuse panel cover. In addition, for all removable relays, pin positions are added to illustrate proper orientation. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6524 Power Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams shows the current feed circuits. 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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6525 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6711 Fuse and Relay Information Fuse and Relay Information contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which fuses and relays are identified, numbered and named. Fuse and relay numbering and naming follow the indication of the fuse panel cover. In addition, for all removable relays, pin positions are added to illustrate proper orientation. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6712 Power Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams shows the current feed circuits. 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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6713 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6756 Fuse and Relay Information Fuse and Relay Information contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which fuses and relays are identified, numbered and named. Fuse and relay numbering and naming follow the indication of the fuse panel cover. In addition, for all removable relays, pin positions are added to illustrate proper orientation. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6757 Power Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams shows the current feed circuits. 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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6758 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

arm bolts which will allow the upper arm to be moved in the slotted frame holes. The LF caster can be adjusted by loosening the lower control arm rearward nut to allow the lower arm to be moved in the slotted frame hole. Front toe is adjusted by the use of the front wheel spindle tie rods. The rear camber is adjusted by replacing the upper arm inboard flag nut with a non-flag nut to allow the arm to be adjusted in the slotted frame holes. The rear toe is adjusted through the use of the rear toe link cam bolt. Camber Negative and Positive Camber Camber is the vertical tilt of the wheel when viewed from the front. Camber can be positive or negative and has a direct effect on tire wear. Caster Caster Caster is the deviation from vertical of an imaginary line drawn through the ball joints when viewed from the side. The caster specifications will give the vehicle the best directional stability characteristics when loaded and driven. The caster setting is not related to tire wear.

Ride Height Front Ride Height Measurement Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Alignment > System Information > Specifications > Page 6927 Rear Ride Height Measurement Thrust Angle (Dogtracking) Thrust Angle (Dogtracking) Thrust angle (also known as dogtracking) is the condition in which the rear axle is not square to the chassis. Heavily crowned roads can give the illusion of incorrect thrust angle. Wander Wander is the tendency of the vehicle to require frequent, random left and right steering wheel corrections to maintain a straight path down a level road. Shimmy Shimmy, as observed by the driver, is large, consistent, rotational oscillations of the steering wheel resulting from large, side-to-side (lateral) tire/wheel movements. Shimmy is usually experienced near 64 km/h (40 mph), and can begin or be amplified when the tire contacts pot holes or irregularities in the road surface. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Alignment > System Information > Specifications > Page 6928 Nibble Sometimes confused with shimmy, nibble is a condition resulting from tire interaction with various road surfaces and observed by the driver as small rotational oscillations of the steering wheel. Poor Returnability/Sticky Steering Poor returnability and sticky steering is used to describe the poor return of the steering wheel to center after a turn or the steering correction is completed. Drift/Pull Pull is a tugging sensation, felt by the hands on the steering wheel, that must be overcome to keep the vehicle going straight. Drift describes what a vehicle with this condition does with hands off the steering wheel. ^ A vehicle-related drift/pull, on a flat road, will cause a consistent deviation from the straight-ahead path and require constant steering input in the opposite direction to counteract the effect. ^ Drift/pull may be induced by conditions external to the vehicle, such as wind or road camber.

The PSP switch is a normally closed switch that opens as the hydraulic pressure increases. The PCM provides a low current voltage on the PSP circuit. When the PSP switch is closed, this voltage is pulled low through the SIG RTN circuit. 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 the transmission electronic pressure control (EPC) pressure during increased engine load, for example during parking maneuvers Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Sensors and Switches - Steering and Suspension > Sensors and Switches - Steering > Power Steering Pressure Switch > Component Information > Description and Operation > Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Switch > Page 6943 Power Steering Pressure Switch: Description and Operation Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Sensor POWER STEERING PRESSURE (PSP) SENSOR Typical Power Steering Pressure (PSP) Sensor The PSP sensor monitors the hydraulic pressure within the power steering system.

It will be necessary to wake them up so they will transmit the latest tire pressure information to the Smart Junction Box (SJB). NOTE: The tire pressure sensor training procedure must be done on a single vehicle, in an area without radio frequency noise and at least 1 m (3 ft) away from other vehicles equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). Radio frequency noise is generated by electrical motors and appliance operation, cellular telephones, remote transmitters, power inverters and portable entertainment equipment. NOTE: If a sensor does not respond to the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool, attempt to activate the same sensor with the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool. If the sensor still does not respond, move the vehicle to rotate the wheels at least one-fourth of a turn and attempt to activate the same sensor again. NOTE: The SJB has a 2-minute time limit between sensor responses. If the SJB does not recognize any 1 of the 4 tire pressure sensors during this time limit, the horn will sound twice and the message center (if equipped) will display TIRE NOT TRAINED REPEAT and the entire procedure must be repeated. NOTE: For vehicles with different front and rear tire pressures (such as the E-Series and certain F-Series), the tire pressure sensors must be trained following a tire rotation. Failure to train the sensors will cause the TPMS indicator to illuminate. For vehicles with the same tire pressure for front and rear tires, tire rotation will not affect the system. 1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position, then press and release the brake pedal. 2. Cycle the ignition switch from the OFF position to the RUN position 3 times, ending in the RUN position. 3. Press and release the brake pedal. 4. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position. 5. Turn the ignition switch from the OFF position to the RUN position 3 times, ending in the RUN position. - The horn will sound once and the TPMS indicator will flash if the training mode has been entered successfully. If equipped, the message center will display TRAIN LF TIRE. NOTE: It may take up to 6 seconds to activate a tire pressure sensor. During this time, the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool must remain in place 180 degrees from the valve stem. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Sensors and Switches - Steering and Suspension > Sensors and Switches - Wheels and Tires > Tire Pressure Sensor > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Page 6957 6. Place the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool on the LF tire sidewall opposite (180 degrees) from the valve stem. Press and release the test button on the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool. The horn will sound briefly to indicate that the tire pressure sensor has been recognized by the SJB. 7. Within 2 minutes of the horn sounding, place the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool on the RF tire sidewall opposite (180 degrees) from the valve stem and press and release the test button to train the RF tire pressure sensor. NOTE: Do not wait more than 2 minutes between training each sensor or the SJB will time out and the entire procedure must be repeated. 8. Repeat Step 7 for the RR and LR tires. The procedure is completed after the last tire has been trained. When the training procedure is complete, the message center (if equipped) will display TIRE TRAINING COMPLETE. For vehicles not equipped with a message center, successful completion of the training procedure will be verified by turning the ignition switch to the OFF position without the horn sounding. If the horn sounds twice when the switch is turned to the OFF position, the training procedure was not successful. 9. Using the scan tool, locate the updated TPMS sensor identifiers trained to the SJB and document them on the applicable warranty claim. NOTE: This step is required to clear DTC C2780, cause the SJB to exit the manufacturing mode and to make sure there are no other concerns with a newly programmed SJB. 10. If the sensors are being trained due to the installation of a new SJB, clear any DTCs and carry out the SJB On-Demand Self Test.

Prior to inspecting the ball joints for wear, inspect the wheel bearings. For additional information, refer to Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. 2. NOTE: In order to obtain an accurate measurement, the suspension must be in full rebound with the weight of the vehicle supported by the frame. Raise and support the vehicle by the frame to allow the wheels to hang in the rebound position. 3. Inspect the ball joint and ball joint boot for damage. ^ If the ball joint or ball joint boot is damaged, install a new ball joint as necessary. NOTE: Carry out Steps 4-6 to inspect the lower ball joint. Carry out Steps 7-9 to inspect the upper ball joint. 4. CAUTION: Do not use any tools or equipment to move the wheel and tire assembly or suspension components while checking for relative movement or suspension damage can occur. The use of tools or equipment will also create relative movement that may not exist when using hand force. Relative movement must be measured using hand force only. NOTE: The weight of the wheel and tire assembly must be overcome to obtain an accurate measurement on the dial indicator. Inspect the ball joint for relative movement by alternately pulling downward and pushing upward on the wheel and tire assembly by hand. Note any relative vertical movement between the wheel knuckle and lower arm at the lower ball joint. ^ If relative movement is not felt or seen, the ball joint is OK. Do not install a new ball joint. ^ If relative movement is found, continue with Step 5. 5. NOTE: In order to obtain an accurate measurement, the dial indicator should be aligned as close as possible with the vertical axis (center line) of the ball joint. To measure ball joint deflection, attach a suitable dial indicator with a flexible arm between the lower control arm and the wheel knuckle or ball joint stud. 6. Measure the ball joint deflection while an assistant pushes up and pulls down on the wheel and tire assembly, by hand. ^ If the deflection exceeds the specification, a new ball joint must be installed. ^ If the deflection meets the specification, continue with the procedure. 7. CAUTION: Do not use any tools or equipment to move the wheel and tire assembly or suspension components while checking for relative movement or suspension damage can occur. The use of tools or equipment will also create relative movement that may not exist when using hand force. Relative movement must be measured using hand force only. Inspect the ball joint for relative movement by alternately pulling downward and pushing upward on the upper control arm by hand. Note any relative vertical movement between the wheel knuckle and upper arm at the upper ball joint.

For this reason, be sure that the cause of the concern is in the axle before disassembling, adjusting or repairing the axle. Refer to Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. Certain driveshaft vibration symptoms are common to the front engine accessory drive (FEAD), the engine, transmission or tires. Be sure the cause of the concern is the driveshaft before repairing or installing a new driveshaft. Refer to Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. Noise Acceptability A gear-driven unit will produce a certain amount of noise. Some noise is acceptable and audible at certain speeds or under various driving conditions, such as a newly paved blacktop road. Slight noise is not detrimental to the operation of the axle and is considered normal. Universal Joint (U-Joint) Inspection Place the vehicle on a frame hoist and rotate the driveshaft by hand. Check for rough operation or seized U-joints. Install a new U-joint if it shows signs of seizure, excessive wear or incorrect seating. Analysis of Leakage Clean up the leaking area enough to identify the exact source. An axle leak can be caused by: ^ Axle lubricant level is too high ^ Worn or damaged axle shaft seals or differential seals ^ Differential housing is cracked ^ Flange yoke seal is worn or damaged ^ Pinion flange is scored or damaged ^ Axle cover is not sealed ^ Vent is plugged Repair the axle as necessary. Make sure the axle lubricant is at the correct level. Axle Vent NOTE: If a plugged vent cannot be cleared, install a new vent. NOTE: If the vent is removed from the housing for any reason, a new vent must be installed. A plugged vent will cause excessive seal lip wear due to internal pressure buildup. If a leak occurs, check the vent. Make sure the vent hose is not kinked. Remove the hose from the vent nipple and clear the hose of any foreign material. While the hose is removed, pass a length of mechanic's wire or a small diameter Allen wrench in and out of the vent to clean it. Connect the hose when done. Flange Yoke Seal Leaks at the axle drive pinion seal originate for these reasons: ^ The seal is not correctly installed ^ A poor quality seal journal surface Any damage to the seal bore (dings, dents, gouges or other imperfections) will distort the seal casing and allow leakage past the outer edge of the axle drive pinion seal. The axle drive pinion seal can be torn, cut or gouged if it is not installed carefully. The spring that holds the axle drive pinion seal against the pinion flange can be knocked out, which can allow leakage past the lip. The rubber lips can occasionally become hard (like plastic) with cracks at the oil lip contact point. The contact point on the pinion flange may blacken, indicating excessive heat. Marks, nicks, gouges or rough surface texture on the seal journal of the pinion flange will also cause leaks. A new pinion flange must be installed if any of these conditions exist. Metal chips or sand trapped at the sealing lip can also cause oil leaks. This can cause a wear groove on the pinion flange and heavy pinion seal wear. When a seal leak occurs, install a new seal and check the vent and the vent hose to make sure they are clean and free of foreign material. Analysis of Vibration WARNING: An all-wheel drive (AWD) vehicle will always have all wheels (on both axles) driving. If only one wheel/axle is raised off the floor and the axle is driven by the engine, the wheel/axle on the floor could drive the vehicle off the stand or jack. Be sure all wheels are off the floor. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Suspension > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7197 Few vibration conditions are caused by the front or rear axle. For a vibration concern, follow the diagnosis procedure in Vehicle/Testing and Inspection unless there is a good reason to suspect the axle. Tires WARNING: Do not balance the wheels and tires while they are mounted on the vehicle. Possible tire disintegration or differential failure could result, causing personal injury or extensive component damage. Use an off-vehicle wheel and tire balancer only. Most vibration is caused by tires, driveline angle or driveline imbalance. Vibration is a concern with modern, high-mileage tires if they are not "true" both radially and laterally. They are more susceptible to vibration around the limits of radial and lateral runout of the tire and wheel assembly. They also require more accurate balancing. Wheel and tire runout checks, truing and balancing are normally done before axle inspection. Driveline Imbalance Driveline imbalance can be caused by excessive looseness in the driveshaft, damaged driveshaft tubing, looseness or high runout at the driveshaft attachments (axle and transfer case flanges). Excessive looseness in the driveshaft can be caused by CV joint or universal joint wear, as well as loose fitting slip-yoke splines. Inspect and install new driveshaft components as necessary. Driveline Angle Driveline Angle Driveline angularity is the angular relationship between the engine crankshaft, the driveshaft and the rear axle pinion. Some of the factors determining driveline angularity include ride height, rear spring and engine mounts. An incorrect driveline (pinion) angle can often be detected by examining the driving condition in which the vibration occurs. ^ A vibration during coastdown, from 72 to 56 km/h (45 to 35 mph), is often caused by an excessive U-joint angle at the axle (pinion nose downward). ^ A vibration during acceleration, from 56 to 72 km/h (35 to 45 mph), may indicate an excessive U-joint angle at the axle (pinion nose upward). When these conditions exist, check the driveline angles. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Suspension > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7198 Universal Joint (U-Joint) Wear Place the vehicle on a frame hoist and rotate the driveshaft by hand. Check for rough operation or seized U-joints. Install a new U-joint if it shows signs of seizure, excessive wear or incorrect seating. Wheel Hub Bolt Circle Runout NOTE: The brake discs must be removed to carry out all runout measurements. 1. Position the special tool on the wheel hub bolt, as close to the hub face as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way. 2. Rotate the hub until the next bolt is contacted. Record the measurement and continue until each bolt is checked. The difference between the maximum and minimum contact readings will be the total wheel hub bolt circle runout. The runout must not exceed 0.38 mm (0.015 inch). Pilot Runout 1. Position the special tools on the pilot, as close to the hub as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way. 2. Rotate the hub one full turn and note the maximum and minimum readings. The difference between the maximum and minimum readings will be the total pilot runout. Pilot runout must not exceed 0.15 mm (0.006 inch). Wheel Hub Runout 1. Position the special tool on the wheel hub, as close to the outer edge as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way. 2. Rotate the hub one full turn and note the maximum and minimum readings. The difference between the maximum and minimum readings will be the total wheel hub runout. The runout must not exceed 0.127 mm (0.005 inch). Drive Pinion Stem and Pinion Flange Check the pinion flange runout when all other checks have failed to show the cause of the vibration. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Suspension > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7199 One cause of excessive pinion flange runout is incorrect installation of the axle drive pinion seal. Check to determine if the spring on the seal lip has been dislodged. Halfshafts NOTE: Constant velocity (CV) joints must not be installed unless disassembly and inspection reveals unusual wear. NOTE: While inspecting the boots, watch for indentations ("dimples") in the boot convolutions. Indentations must be removed. ^ Inspect the boots for evidence of cracks, tears or splits. ^ Inspect the underbody for any indication of grease splatter near the boots outboard and inboard locations. This is an indication of boot/clamp damage. Axle Noise NOTE: Before disassembling the axle to diagnose and correct gear noise, eliminate the tires, exhaust, trim items, roof racks and wheel bearings as possible causes. Follow the diagnostic procedures in Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. The noises described as follows usually have specific causes that can be diagnosed by observation as the unit is disassembled. The initial clues are the type of noise heard during the road test. Gear Howl and Whine Howling or whining of the ring gear and pinion is due to an incorrect gear pattern, gear damage or incorrect bearing preload. Bearing Whine Bearing whine is a high-pitched sound similar to a whistle. It is usually caused by worn/damaged pinion bearings, which are operating at driveshaft speed. Bearing noise occurs at all driving speeds. This distinguishes it from gear whine which usually comes and goes as speed changes. As noted, pinion bearings make a high-pitched, whistling noise, usually at all speeds. If however there is only one pinion bearing that is worn/damaged, the noise may vary in different driving phases. New pinion bearings must not be installed unless they are scored or damaged, or there is a specific pinion bearing noise. A worn/damaged bearing will normally be obvious at disassembly. Examine the large end of the rollers for wear. If the pinion bearings original blend radius has worn to a sharp edge, a new pinion bearing must be installed. A wheel bearing noise can be mistaken for a pinion bearing noise. On rear wheel drive (RWD) vehicles, check the wheel bearing for a spalled cup and spalled/damaged rollers. Install a new wheel bearing if any of these concerns are detected. On four wheel drive (4WD) vehicles, check the wheel bearing for rotating smoothness and end play. Chuckle Chuckle that occurs on the coast driving phase is usually caused by excessive clearance between the differential gear hub and the differential case bore. Damage to a gear tooth on the coast side can cause a noise identical to a chuckle. A very small tooth nick or ridge on the edge of a tooth can cause the noise. Clean the gear tooth nick or ridge with a small grinding wheel. If the damaged area is larger than 3.2 mm (1/8 inch), install a new gearset. To check the ring gear and pinion, remove as much lubricant as possible from the gears with clean solvent. Wipe the gears dry or blow them dry with compressed air. Look for scored or damaged teeth. Also look for cracks or other damage. If either gear is scored or damaged badly, a new ring gear and pinion must be installed. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Suspension > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7200 If metal has broken loose, the axle housing must be cleaned to remove particles that will cause damage. At this time, any other damaged parts in the axle housing must also be installed new. Knock Knock, which can occur in all driving phases, has several causes including damaged teeth or gearset. 1. NOTE: Measure the end play with a Dial Indicator with Bracketry and not by feel. Knock is also caused by excessive end play in the axle shafts. Up to 0.762 mm (0.030 inch) is allowed in semi-float axles. The frequency of the knock will be less because the axle shaft speed is slower than the driveshaft. Clunk Clunk is a metallic noise heard when the automatic transmission is engaged in REVERSE or DRIVE. The noise can also occur when throttle is applied or released. It is caused by backlash somewhere in the driveline or loose suspension components; it is felt or heard in the axle. Additionally, clunk may be heard upon initial drive-away. This occurs as engine torque shifts vehicle weight, forcing changes in driveline angles which prevent the driveshaft slip-yoke from sliding on the output shaft. To correct this condition, lubricate the slip-yoke splines. Bearing Rumble Bearing rumble sounds like marbles being tumbled. This condition is usually caused by a worn/damaged wheel bearing. The lower pitch is because the wheel bearing turns at only about 1/3 of the driveshaft speed. Wheel bearing noise also may be high-pitched, similar to gear noise, but will be evident in all 4 driving modes. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Suspension > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7201 Wheel Hub: Testing and Inspection Rear Drive Axle/Differential - Ford 8.8-Inch Ring Gear Inspection and Verification Special Tool(s) Material The technician should have a thorough knowledge of driveline system operation and accepted general driveline guidelines to detect any problems. A gear driven unit will produce a certain amount of noise. Some noise is acceptable and audible at certain speeds or under various driving conditions. Certain conditions, such as road conditions and weather, will amplify normal vehicle noise. Certain rear axle and driveline concern symptoms are also common to the engine, transmission, rear wheel bearings and tire. For this reason, be sure the cause of the concern is in the axle before repairing or installing any axle components. This is a guide to diagnose a driveline concern: ^ Verify and document the customer concern. ^ Carry out a preliminary investigation. ^ Road test the vehicle. ^ Find the cause of the problem. ^ Inspect the components. 1. Verify and document the customer concern. 1 When was it first noticed? 2 Did it appear suddenly or gradually? 3 Did anything unusual occur that would coincide with it or precede it? 4 Has the driveline system been repaired before or new components installed? ^ Check the vehicle service record. Note any repairs other than driveline, such as brakes or suspension. 5 Are there any special conditions that will affect the concern or will alter the concern? For example, ^ road speed. ^ type of road. ^ drive mode. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Suspension > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7202 ^ temperature. ^ vehicle loaded or unloaded. 6 Is the condition constant or intermittent? Can the concern be duplicated at any time? 7 Check for TSBs. 2. NOTE: If the inspection reveals an obvious concern, repair the vehicle. Do a preliminary investigation. Visually inspect for obvious signs of damage. 1 Inspect the driveshaft: ^ for build up of any foreign material. ^ for damage, such as a bent tube or missing weights. ^ U-joints, CV joints or flex couplers for wear or damage. 2 Inspect the axle: ^ for signs of leakage at the drain or fill plug, differential seal, vent or halfshaft seals. a plugged vent or vent tube will cause a leak. ^ for damage, such as cracks, bent halfshafts or dented rear cover. ^ for missing fasteners. 3 Inspect other suspect components/systems: ^ inspect the suspension for broken springs, damaged shock absorbers and worn suspension bushings. ^ inspect the rear brake components - lines, cables and calipers. ^ inspect the tires; are they in good condition and do they match? 3. NOTE: A road test is necessary for any customer concern of noise or vibration. Road test the vehicle. 1 During the road test, use these driving methods to diagnose the problem. Is the concern most noticeable: ^ from a stop? ^ on shifts from REVERSE to DRIVE? ^ on turns? sweeping type turn. - tight turn (to the stop). ^ in DRIVE? accelerating the vehicle, definite throttle depression, applying engine torque. ^ in CRUISE? - maintaining a constant speed with the throttle applied. ^ in COAST? decelerating with the throttle closed. 2 Record when the concern occurs. Write down the kph (mph) range at which the noise/vibration occurs. 4. Find the cause of the problem. 1 Compare the inspection and road test results with the chart. 2 Use this diagnostic routine chart to identify the probable cause and know what corrective actions should be taken to repair the component/vehicle and to prevent a reoccurrence. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Suspension > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7203 Diagnostic Routine Chart 5. NOTE: If the conclusion of the road test points to an axle assembly section (ring and pinion or differential case) concern, carry out a visual inspection of the rear axle. Inspect the axle components. 1 Remove the axle assembly. 2 Remove the differential housing cover. Drain the axle lubricant through a white cloth. Check the fluid for: ^ any foreign material. ^ metal particles. ^ burnt odor. 3 NOTE: When inspecting the axle, do not clean the components immediately. Cleaning may remove diagnostic evidence. Inspect the axle components. ^ Look for: loose fasteners. - notches or visible steps or grooves created by wear. - pitting or cracking along gear contact lines. - scuffing or deformations. - discolorations. - nicks or ridges on gear teeth. ^ Clean the axle components for inspection. Remove as much lubricant as possible with clean solvent. Wipe the components or blow them dry with compressed air. ^ Re-inspect for: Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Suspension > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7204 - loose fasteners. - notches or visible steps or grooves created by wear. - pitting or cracking along gear contact lines. - scuffing or deformations. - discolorations. - nicks or ridges on gear teeth. ^ Check backlash and carry out a ring and pinion pattern test.

It will be necessary to wake them up so they will transmit the latest tire pressure information to the Smart Junction Box (SJB). NOTE: The tire pressure sensor training procedure must be done on a single vehicle, in an area without radio frequency noise and at least 1 m (3 ft) away from other vehicles equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). Radio frequency noise is generated by electrical motors and appliance operation, cellular telephones, remote transmitters, power inverters and portable entertainment equipment. NOTE: If a sensor does not respond to the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool, attempt to activate the same sensor with the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool. If the sensor still does not respond, move the vehicle to rotate the wheels at least one-fourth of a turn and attempt to activate the same sensor again. NOTE: The SJB has a 2-minute time limit between sensor responses. If the SJB does not recognize any 1 of the 4 tire pressure sensors during this time limit, the horn will sound twice and the message center (if equipped) will display TIRE NOT TRAINED REPEAT and the entire procedure must be repeated. NOTE: For vehicles with different front and rear tire pressures (such as the E-Series and certain F-Series), the tire pressure sensors must be trained following a tire rotation. Failure to train the sensors will cause the TPMS indicator to illuminate. For vehicles with the same tire pressure for front and rear tires, tire rotation will not affect the system. 1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position, then press and release the brake pedal. 2. Cycle the ignition switch from the OFF position to the RUN position 3 times, ending in the RUN position. 3. Press and release the brake pedal. 4. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position. 5. Turn the ignition switch from the OFF position to the RUN position 3 times, ending in the RUN position. - The horn will sound once and the TPMS indicator will flash if the training mode has been entered successfully. If equipped, the message center will display TRAIN LF TIRE. NOTE: It may take up to 6 seconds to activate a tire pressure sensor. During this time, the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool must remain in place 180 degrees from the valve stem. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Wheels and Tires > Sensors and Switches - Wheels and Tires > Tire Pressure Sensor > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Page 7219 6. Place the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool on the LF tire sidewall opposite (180 degrees) from the valve stem. Press and release the test button on the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool.

Within 2 minutes of the horn sounding, place the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool on the RF tire sidewall opposite (180 degrees) from the valve stem and press and release the test button to train the RF tire pressure sensor. NOTE: Do not wait more than 2 minutes between training each sensor or the SJB will time out and the entire procedure must be repeated. 8. Repeat Step 7 for the RR and LR tires. The procedure is completed after the last tire has been trained. When the training procedure is complete, the message center (if equipped) will display TIRE TRAINING COMPLETE. For vehicles not equipped with a message center, successful completion of the training procedure will be verified by turning the ignition switch to the OFF position without the horn sounding. If the horn sounds twice when the switch is turned to the OFF position, the training procedure was not successful. 9. Using the scan tool, locate the updated TPMS sensor identifiers trained to the SJB and document them on the applicable warranty claim. NOTE: This step is required to clear DTC C2780, cause the SJB to exit the manufacturing mode and to make sure there are no other concerns with a newly programmed SJB. 10. If the sensors are being trained due to the installation of a new SJB, clear any DTCs and carry out the SJB On-Demand Self Test.

For this reason, be sure that the cause of the concern is in the axle before disassembling, adjusting or repairing the axle. Refer to Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. Certain driveshaft vibration symptoms are common to the front engine accessory drive (FEAD), the engine, transmission or tires. Be sure the cause of the concern is the driveshaft before repairing or installing a new driveshaft. Refer to Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. Noise Acceptability A gear-driven unit will produce a certain amount of noise. Some noise is acceptable and audible at certain speeds or under various driving conditions, such as a newly paved blacktop road. Slight noise is not detrimental to the operation of the axle and is considered normal. Universal Joint (U-Joint) Inspection Place the vehicle on a frame hoist and rotate the driveshaft by hand. Check for rough operation or seized U-joints. Install a new U-joint if it shows signs of seizure, excessive wear or incorrect seating. Analysis of Leakage Clean up the leaking area enough to identify the exact source. An axle leak can be caused by: ^ Axle lubricant level is too high ^ Worn or damaged axle shaft seals or differential seals ^ Differential housing is cracked ^ Flange yoke seal is worn or damaged ^ Pinion flange is scored or damaged ^ Axle cover is not sealed ^ Vent is plugged Repair the axle as necessary. Make sure the axle lubricant is at the correct level. Axle Vent NOTE: If a plugged vent cannot be cleared, install a new vent. NOTE: If the vent is removed from the housing for any reason, a new vent must be installed. A plugged vent will cause excessive seal lip wear due to internal pressure buildup. If a leak occurs, check the vent. Make sure the vent hose is not kinked. Remove the hose from the vent nipple and clear the hose of any foreign material. While the hose is removed, pass a length of mechanic's wire or a small diameter Allen wrench in and out of the vent to clean it. Connect the hose when done. Flange Yoke Seal Leaks at the axle drive pinion seal originate for these reasons: ^ The seal is not correctly installed ^ A poor quality seal journal surface Any damage to the seal bore (dings, dents, gouges or other imperfections) will distort the seal casing and allow leakage past the outer edge of the axle drive pinion seal. The axle drive pinion seal can be torn, cut or gouged if it is not installed carefully. The spring that holds the axle drive pinion seal against the pinion flange can be knocked out, which can allow leakage past the lip. The rubber lips can occasionally become hard (like plastic) with cracks at the oil lip contact point. The contact point on the pinion flange may blacken, indicating excessive heat. Marks, nicks, gouges or rough surface texture on the seal journal of the pinion flange will also cause leaks. A new pinion flange must be installed if any of these conditions exist. Metal chips or sand trapped at the sealing lip can also cause oil leaks. This can cause a wear groove on the pinion flange and heavy pinion seal wear. When a seal leak occurs, install a new seal and check the vent and the vent hose to make sure they are clean and free of foreign material. Analysis of Vibration WARNING: An all-wheel drive (AWD) vehicle will always have all wheels (on both axles) driving. If only one wheel/axle is raised off the floor and the axle is driven by the engine, the wheel/axle on the floor could drive the vehicle off the stand or jack. Be sure all wheels are off the floor. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7304 Few vibration conditions are caused by the front or rear axle. For a vibration concern, follow the diagnosis procedure in Vehicle/Testing and Inspection unless there is a good reason to suspect the axle. Tires WARNING: Do not balance the wheels and tires while they are mounted on the vehicle. Possible tire disintegration or differential failure could result, causing personal injury or extensive component damage. Use an off-vehicle wheel and tire balancer only. Most vibration is caused by tires, driveline angle or driveline imbalance. Vibration is a concern with modern, high-mileage tires if they are not "true" both radially and laterally. They are more susceptible to vibration around the limits of radial and lateral runout of the tire and wheel assembly. They also require more accurate balancing. Wheel and tire runout checks, truing and balancing are normally done before axle inspection. Driveline Imbalance Driveline imbalance can be caused by excessive looseness in the driveshaft, damaged driveshaft tubing, looseness or high runout at the driveshaft attachments (axle and transfer case flanges). Excessive looseness in the driveshaft can be caused by CV joint or universal joint wear, as well as loose fitting slip-yoke splines. Inspect and install new driveshaft components as necessary. Driveline Angle Driveline Angle Driveline angularity is the angular relationship between the engine crankshaft, the driveshaft and the rear axle pinion. Some of the factors determining driveline angularity include ride height, rear spring and engine mounts. An incorrect driveline (pinion) angle can often be detected by examining the driving condition in which the vibration occurs. ^ A vibration during coastdown, from 72 to 56 km/h (45 to 35 mph), is often caused by an excessive U-joint angle at the axle (pinion nose downward). ^ A vibration during acceleration, from 56 to 72 km/h (35 to 45 mph), may indicate an excessive U-joint angle at the axle (pinion nose upward). When these conditions exist, check the driveline angles. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7305 Universal Joint (U-Joint) Wear Place the vehicle on a frame hoist and rotate the driveshaft by hand. Check for rough operation or seized U-joints. Install a new U-joint if it shows signs of seizure, excessive wear or incorrect seating. Wheel Hub Bolt Circle Runout NOTE: The brake discs must be removed to carry out all runout measurements. 1. Position the special tool on the wheel hub bolt, as close to the hub face as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way. 2. Rotate the hub until the next bolt is contacted. Record the measurement and continue until each bolt is checked. The difference between the maximum and minimum contact readings will be the total wheel hub bolt circle runout. The runout must not exceed 0.38 mm (0.015 inch). Pilot Runout 1. Position the special tools on the pilot, as close to the hub as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way. 2. Rotate the hub one full turn and note the maximum and minimum readings. The difference between the maximum and minimum readings will be the total pilot runout. Pilot runout must not exceed 0.15 mm (0.006 inch). Wheel Hub Runout 1. Position the special tool on the wheel hub, as close to the outer edge as possible. Zero the indicator to allow the pointer to deflect either way. 2. Rotate the hub one full turn and note the maximum and minimum readings. The difference between the maximum and minimum readings will be the total wheel hub runout. The runout must not exceed 0.127 mm (0.005 inch). Drive Pinion Stem and Pinion Flange Check the pinion flange runout when all other checks have failed to show the cause of the vibration. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7306 One cause of excessive pinion flange runout is incorrect installation of the axle drive pinion seal. Check to determine if the spring on the seal lip has been dislodged. Halfshafts NOTE: Constant velocity (CV) joints must not be installed unless disassembly and inspection reveals unusual wear. NOTE: While inspecting the boots, watch for indentations ("dimples") in the boot convolutions. Indentations must be removed. ^ Inspect the boots for evidence of cracks, tears or splits. ^ Inspect the underbody for any indication of grease splatter near the boots outboard and inboard locations. This is an indication of boot/clamp damage. Axle Noise NOTE: Before disassembling the axle to diagnose and correct gear noise, eliminate the tires, exhaust, trim items, roof racks and wheel bearings as possible causes. Follow the diagnostic procedures in Vehicle/Testing and Inspection. The noises described as follows usually have specific causes that can be diagnosed by observation as the unit is disassembled. The initial clues are the type of noise heard during the road test. Gear Howl and Whine Howling or whining of the ring gear and pinion is due to an incorrect gear pattern, gear damage or incorrect bearing preload. Bearing Whine Bearing whine is a high-pitched sound similar to a whistle. It is usually caused by worn/damaged pinion bearings, which are operating at driveshaft speed. Bearing noise occurs at all driving speeds. This distinguishes it from gear whine which usually comes and goes as speed changes. As noted, pinion bearings make a high-pitched, whistling noise, usually at all speeds. If however there is only one pinion bearing that is worn/damaged, the noise may vary in different driving phases. New pinion bearings must not be installed unless they are scored or damaged, or there is a specific pinion bearing noise. A worn/damaged bearing will normally be obvious at disassembly. Examine the large end of the rollers for wear. If the pinion bearings original blend radius has worn to a sharp edge, a new pinion bearing must be installed. A wheel bearing noise can be mistaken for a pinion bearing noise. On rear wheel drive (RWD) vehicles, check the wheel bearing for a spalled cup and spalled/damaged rollers. Install a new wheel bearing if any of these concerns are detected. On four wheel drive (4WD) vehicles, check the wheel bearing for rotating smoothness and end play. Chuckle Chuckle that occurs on the coast driving phase is usually caused by excessive clearance between the differential gear hub and the differential case bore. Damage to a gear tooth on the coast side can cause a noise identical to a chuckle. A very small tooth nick or ridge on the edge of a tooth can cause the noise. Clean the gear tooth nick or ridge with a small grinding wheel. If the damaged area is larger than 3.2 mm (1/8 inch), install a new gearset. To check the ring gear and pinion, remove as much lubricant as possible from the gears with clean solvent. Wipe the gears dry or blow them dry with compressed air. Look for scored or damaged teeth. Also look for cracks or other damage. If either gear is scored or damaged badly, a new ring gear and pinion must be installed. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7307 If metal has broken loose, the axle housing must be cleaned to remove particles that will cause damage. At this time, any other damaged parts in the axle housing must also be installed new. Knock Knock, which can occur in all driving phases, has several causes including damaged teeth or gearset. 1. NOTE: Measure the end play with a Dial Indicator with Bracketry and not by feel. Knock is also caused by excessive end play in the axle shafts. Up to 0.762 mm (0.030 inch) is allowed in semi-float axles. The frequency of the knock will be less because the axle shaft speed is slower than the driveshaft. Clunk Clunk is a metallic noise heard when the automatic transmission is engaged in REVERSE or DRIVE. The noise can also occur when throttle is applied or released. It is caused by backlash somewhere in the driveline or loose suspension components; it is felt or heard in the axle. Additionally, clunk may be heard upon initial drive-away. This occurs as engine torque shifts vehicle weight, forcing changes in driveline angles which prevent the driveshaft slip-yoke from sliding on the output shaft. To correct this condition, lubricate the slip-yoke splines. Bearing Rumble Bearing rumble sounds like marbles being tumbled. This condition is usually caused by a worn/damaged wheel bearing. The lower pitch is because the wheel bearing turns at only about 1/3 of the driveshaft speed. Wheel bearing noise also may be high-pitched, similar to gear noise, but will be evident in all 4 driving modes. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7308 Wheel Hub: Testing and Inspection Rear Drive Axle/Differential - Ford 8.8-Inch Ring Gear Inspection and Verification Special Tool(s) Material The technician should have a thorough knowledge of driveline system operation and accepted general driveline guidelines to detect any problems. A gear driven unit will produce a certain amount of noise. Some noise is acceptable and audible at certain speeds or under various driving conditions. Certain conditions, such as road conditions and weather, will amplify normal vehicle noise. Certain rear axle and driveline concern symptoms are also common to the engine, transmission, rear wheel bearings and tire. For this reason, be sure the cause of the concern is in the axle before repairing or installing any axle components. This is a guide to diagnose a driveline concern: ^ Verify and document the customer concern. ^ Carry out a preliminary investigation. ^ Road test the vehicle. ^ Find the cause of the problem. ^ Inspect the components. 1. Verify and document the customer concern. 1 When was it first noticed? 2 Did it appear suddenly or gradually? 3 Did anything unusual occur that would coincide with it or precede it? 4 Has the driveline system been repaired before or new components installed? ^ Check the vehicle service record. Note any repairs other than driveline, such as brakes or suspension. 5 Are there any special conditions that will affect the concern or will alter the concern? For example, ^ road speed. ^ type of road. ^ drive mode. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7309 ^ temperature. ^ vehicle loaded or unloaded. 6 Is the condition constant or intermittent? Can the concern be duplicated at any time? 7 Check for TSBs. 2. NOTE: If the inspection reveals an obvious concern, repair the vehicle. Do a preliminary investigation. Visually inspect for obvious signs of damage. 1 Inspect the driveshaft: ^ for build up of any foreign material. ^ for damage, such as a bent tube or missing weights. ^ U-joints, CV joints or flex couplers for wear or damage. 2 Inspect the axle: ^ for signs of leakage at the drain or fill plug, differential seal, vent or halfshaft seals. a plugged vent or vent tube will cause a leak. ^ for damage, such as cracks, bent halfshafts or dented rear cover. ^ for missing fasteners. 3 Inspect other suspect components/systems: ^ inspect the suspension for broken springs, damaged shock absorbers and worn suspension bushings. ^ inspect the rear brake components - lines, cables and calipers. ^ inspect the tires; are they in good condition and do they match? 3. NOTE: A road test is necessary for any customer concern of noise or vibration. Road test the vehicle. 1 During the road test, use these driving methods to diagnose the problem. Is the concern most noticeable: ^ from a stop? ^ on shifts from REVERSE to DRIVE? ^ on turns? sweeping type turn. - tight turn (to the stop). ^ in DRIVE? accelerating the vehicle, definite throttle depression, applying engine torque. ^ in CRUISE? - maintaining a constant speed with the throttle applied. ^ in COAST? decelerating with the throttle closed. 2 Record when the concern occurs. Write down the kph (mph) range at which the noise/vibration occurs. 4. Find the cause of the problem. 1 Compare the inspection and road test results with the chart. 2 Use this diagnostic routine chart to identify the probable cause and know what corrective actions should be taken to repair the component/vehicle and to prevent a reoccurrence. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7310 Diagnostic Routine Chart 5. NOTE: If the conclusion of the road test points to an axle assembly section (ring and pinion or differential case) concern, carry out a visual inspection of the rear axle. Inspect the axle components. 1 Remove the axle assembly. 2 Remove the differential housing cover. Drain the axle lubricant through a white cloth. Check the fluid for: ^ any foreign material. ^ metal particles. ^ burnt odor. 3 NOTE: When inspecting the axle, do not clean the components immediately. Cleaning may remove diagnostic evidence. Inspect the axle components. ^ Look for: loose fasteners. - notches or visible steps or grooves created by wear. - pitting or cracking along gear contact lines. - scuffing or deformations. - discolorations. - nicks or ridges on gear teeth. ^ Clean the axle components for inspection. Remove as much lubricant as possible with clean solvent. Wipe the components or blow them dry with compressed air. ^ Re-inspect for: Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Wheels and Tires > Wheel Hub > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Driveline System > Page 7311 - loose fasteners. - notches or visible steps or grooves created by wear. - pitting or cracking along gear contact lines. - scuffing or deformations. - discolorations. - nicks or ridges on gear teeth. ^ Check backlash and carry out a ring and pinion pattern test.

The A/CCR is wired normally open. There is no direct electrical connection between the A/C switch or electronic automatic temperature control (EATC) module and the A/C clutch. The PCM receives a signal indicating that A/C is requested. For some applications, this message is sent through the communications network. When A/C is requested, the PCM checks other A/C related inputs that are available, such as A/C pressure switch and A/C cycling switch. If these inputs indicate A/C operation is OK, and the engine conditions are OK (coolant temperature, engine RPM, throttle position), the PCM grounds the A/CCR output, closing the relay contacts and sending voltage to the A/CCR.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Control Assembly, HVAC > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 7448 Fuse and Relay Information Fuse and Relay Information contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which fuses and relays are identified, numbered and named. Fuse and relay numbering and naming follow the indication of the fuse panel cover. In addition, for all removable relays, pin positions are added to illustrate proper orientation. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Control Assembly, HVAC > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 7449 Power Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams shows the current feed circuits. 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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Control Assembly, HVAC > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 7450 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

Control System Inputs The climate control assembly has 3 system control inputs. Climate Control Assembly The climate control assembly integrates the temperature control switch, A/C request button and rear defog switch into a single unit. The temperature control switch setting determines air temperature. Temperature selection is accomplished with a potentiometer (temperature control switch) connected to the temperature blend door actuator. Movement of the temperature control switch from COOL (blue) to WARM (red) causes a corresponding movement of the temperature blend door and determines the air discharge temperature that the air distribution system will maintain. The temperature control switch is an integral part of the manual climate control assembly and a new one cannot be separately installed. The A/C request switch determines A/C compressor operation, except when the function selector switch is in the OFF, MAX, DEFROST or FLOOR/DEFROST positions. The A/C request switch is an integral part of the manual climate control assembly and a new one cannot be separately installed. The rear defog button signals activation of the heated backlight and heated mirrors. The rear defog button is an integral part of the manual climate control assembly and a new one cannot be separately installed. Function Selector Switch The function selector switch combines a vacuum selector valve that determines air distribution and an electrical switch to supply battery voltage to the A/C compressor circuit and the blower motor circuit. When the function selector switch is in the MAX A/C, DEFROST or FLOOR/DEFROST positions, the A/C compressor will be operational regardless of the A/C request switch status. Blower Motor Switch The blower motor switch controls blower motor speed by adding or bypassing resistors in the blower motor switch resistor in all function selector switch positions except OFF. Control System Outputs The climate control system has 5 system outputs. Blower Motor Resistor The blower motor resistor has 3 resistor elements mounted on the resistor board to provide 4 blower motor speeds. Depending on the blower motor switch position, series resistance is added or bypassed in the blower motor circuit to decrease or increase blower motor speed. The blower motor resistor has an overheating device (thermal limiter) that opens the resistor coil when the temperature reaches approximately 184°C (363°F), interrupting the blower motor operation in all speeds except HIGH. The thermal limiter cannot be reset and is not serviceable. Temperature Blend Door Actuator The temperature blend door actuator moves the temperature blend door on command from the temperature control switch using a reversible electric motor. The temperature blend door actuator contains an internal controller that will recognize the temperature control switch signal and drive the temperature blend door to the desired position. The temperature blend door actuator is located on the LH side of the heater core and evaporator core housing. Vacuum Control Motors The 4 vacuum control motors move the airflow mode doors to direct system airflow to the vehicle interior as determined by the function selector switch. Vacuum control motors are used to control the: air inlet door. - defrost mode door. - panel mode door. - floor mode door. Heater Control Valve Vacuum Switch Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Control Assembly, HVAC > Component Information > Description and Operation > Control Components > Page 7470 The heater control valve vacuum switch applies vacuum to the heater control valve when the temperature blend door is in the full COOL position. The temperature blend door actuates the heater control valve vacuum switch with an arm attached to the RH side of the temperature blend door pivot shaft. The heater control valve vacuum switch is mounted on the RH side of the heater core and evaporator core housing just below the defrost door vacuum control motor. DUAL-ZONE ELECTRONIC AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL The dual-zone electronic automatic temperature control (EATC) module analyzes input from the following major sources: - Temperature, airflow direction and blower selection (made by the vehicle occupants) - In-vehicle temperature - Ambient temperature - Sunload - Vehicle speed - Engine coolant temperature Using these inputs, the dual-zone EATC module determines the correct conditions for the following outputs: - A/C compressor operation - Blower speed - LH side temperature blend door position - RH side temperature blend door position - Air inlet mode door position - Defrost mode door position - Panel mode door position - Floor mode door position Control System Inputs The dual-zone EATC system has 5 control system inputs. Climate Control Assembly (Dual-Zone EATC Module) NOTE: If installing a new dual-zone EATC module, the new module must be configured for the vehicle. Refer to Information Bus (Module Communications Network). The dual-zone EATC module has a vacuum fluorescent display for displaying set temperature, airflow direction, blower speed and diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). The dual-zone EATC module utilizes an on-board diagnostic (OBD) feature to supply the technician with DTCs. These DTCs help direct the technician to the inoperative component. Steering Wheel Audio/Climate Control Switch The steering wheel audio/climate control switch is located on the right side of the steering wheel. The steering wheel audio/climate control switch allows the driver to adjust the passenger compartment temperature setting and manually override the blower motor speed setting. Ambient Air Temperature Sensor The ambient air temperature sensor contains a thermistor which measures the temperature of outside air as a resistance and sends that reading to the dual-zone EATC module. In-Vehicle Temperature Sensor The in-vehicle temperature sensor contains a thermistor which measures the in-vehicle air temperature and sends that reading to the EATC module. A hose and elbow is connected between the heater core and evaporator core housing and the in-vehicle temperature sensor. The automatic temperature control sensor hose and elbow takes air from the heater core and evaporator core housing air stream to create a suction in the in-vehicle temperature sensor. The suction draws in-vehicle air into the in-vehicle temperature sensor and across the thermistor. Solar Radiation Sensor (Sunload Sensor) The solar radiation sensor supplies information to the dual-zone EATC module indicating LH side and RH side sunload. Control System Outputs The dual-zone EATC system has 4 control system outputs. Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) Solenoid and Manifold The ATC solenoid and manifold uses 5 internal solenoid-type valves to distribute vacuum to the vacuum control motors and heater control valve based on the dual-zone EATC module settings. Manifold vacuum is always available at the ATC solenoid and manifold from the vacuum reservoir when the engine is running. The 4 vacuum control motors and the heater control valve vacuum lines are each connected to a separate internal solenoid. The dual-zone EATC module will apply voltage to the desired solenoids to open the solenoid to the manifold vacuum supply and complete the vacuum circuit to the desired component. Blower Motor Speed Control Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Control Assembly, HVAC > Component Information > Description and Operation > Control Components > Page 7471 The blower speed control converts low power signals from the dual-zone EATC module to a high current, variable ground feed for the blower motor. A delay function is used to provide a gradual increase or decrease in blower motor speed under all conditions. Temperature Blend Door Actuators The dual-zone EATC system uses 2 temperature blend door actuators to control 2 separate temperature blend doors. The temperature blend doors independently vary the LH side and RH side temperature settings, as desired. The temperature blend door actuators each contain a reversible electric motor and a potentiometer. The dual-zone EATC module applies a 5-volt signal to one end of the potentiometer and ground to the other. The potentiometer wiper is connected to the actuator output shaft and moves with the output shaft. The voltage available at the wiper indicates the position of the temperature blend door. The actuator wiper voltage is sent to the dual-zone EATC module which drives the actuator motor in whichever direction is necessary to make the actuator wiper voltage agree with the expected dual-zone EATC module wiper voltage value. Vacuum Control Motors The 4 vacuum control motors move the airflow mode doors to direct system airflow to the vehicle interior as determined by the function selector switch. Vacuum control motors are used to control the air inlet door. - defrost mode door. - panel mode door. - floor mode door. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Control Assembly, HVAC > Component Information > Description and Operation > Control Components > Page 7472 Control Assembly: Description and Operation Heating and Ventilation HEATING AND VENTILATION The heating and ventilation system has the following features: - Controls the temperature and, during A/C operation, reduces the relative humidity of the air inside the vehicle. - Delivers heated or cooled air to maintain the vehicle interior temperature and comfort level. - Cooling or heating can be adjusted to maintain the desired temperature. - On vehicles with dual-zone electronic automatic temperature control (EATC), the temperature can be adjusted individually by the driver and passenger. Heater Core The heater core consists of fins and tubes arranged to extract heat from the engine coolant and transfer it to air passing through the heater core. Blower Motor The blower motor pulls air from the air inlet and forces it into the heater core and evaporator core housing and the plenum chamber where it is mixed and distributed. Heater Control Valve The heater control valve is actuated by the heater control valve vacuum switch (manual climate control) or the heater control valve vacuum control circuit (EATC). When the heater control valve is closed (full vacuum), coolant flow through the heater core is shut OFF and A/C cooling efficiency is increased. Heater Core and Evaporator Core Housing The heater core and evaporator core housing directs airflow from the blower motor through the evaporator core and heater core. All airflow from the blower motor passes through the evaporator core. The airflow is then directed through or around the heater core by the temperature blend door(s). Vehicles equipped with dual-zone EATC use a partitioned heater core and evaporator core housing with 2 electric actuator-positioned temperature blend doors. This allows for separate temperatures to be selected for the driver and passenger sides of the passenger compartment. Manual systems use a single electric actuator-positioned temperature blend door to direct airflow through or around the heater core.

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 the resistance 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 changes 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, improve defrost/demist performance, and reduce A/C clutch cycling. NOTE: These values can vary 15% due to sensor and VREF variations. Voltage values were calculated for VREF equals 5.0 volts.

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 Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Heater Core > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Customer Interest for Heater Core: > 06-21-19 > Oct > 06 > A/C - Heater Core Electrolysis/Leakage > Page 7528 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.

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.

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 Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Heating and Air Conditioning > Heater Hose > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > All Technical Service Bulletins for Heater Hose: > 06-21-19 > Oct > 06 > A/C - Heater Core Electrolysis/Leakage > Page 7558 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.

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.

It is not necessary to add additional dye to the refrigerant system before diagnosing leaks, even if a significant amount of refrigerant has been removed from the system. Replacement suction accumulators are shipped with a fluorescent dye "wafer" included in the desiccant bag which will dissolve after approximately 30 minutes of continued A/C operation. It is not necessary to add dye after flushing or filtering the refrigerant system because a new suction accumulator is installed as part of the flushing or filtering procedure. Additional refrigerant system dye should only be added if more than 50% of the refrigerant system lubricant capacity has been lost due to a fitting separation, hose rupture or other damage.

The A/CCR is wired normally open. There is no direct electrical connection between the A/C switch or electronic automatic temperature control (EATC) module and the A/C clutch. The PCM receives a signal indicating that A/C is requested. For some applications, this message is sent through the communications network. When A/C is requested, the PCM checks other A/C related inputs that are available, such as A/C pressure switch and A/C cycling switch. If these inputs indicate A/C operation is OK, and the engine conditions are OK (coolant temperature, engine RPM, throttle position), the PCM grounds the A/CCR output, closing the relay contacts and sending voltage to the A/CCR.

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 the resistance 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 changes 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, improve defrost/demist performance, and reduce A/C clutch cycling. NOTE: These values can vary 15% due to sensor and VREF variations. Voltage values were calculated for VREF equals 5.0 volts.

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. 26. Turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON. 27. Install the RCM fuse 17 (10A) to the SJB and install the cover. 28. 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. 29. Prove out the supplemental restraint system (SRS) as follows: Turn the ignition switch from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the switch 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 6 seconds and then turn off. If an air bag SRS fault is present, the air bag indicator will: fail to light. - remain lit continuously. - flash at a 5 Hz rate (RCM not configured). The air bag indicator might not light 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 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 5 sets of 5 beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator and any SRS fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired. Clear all continuous DTCs from the RCM and occupant classification sensor (OCS) module using a scan tool.

ISSUE Various 2001-2007 vehicles are equipped with a restraints control module (RCM) that report diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) which provide general fault information. These DTCs require accessing the associated bit-mapped PIDs (fault PIDs) to identify the specific fault. Most 2001-2006 Workshop Manuals (WSM) were written using New Generation STAR Tester (NGS) terminology and navigation which does not translate well when using Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS), Portable Diagnostic Software (PDS) or Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS). ACTION Refer to the Service Tips to assist with navigation of both the WSM and the scan tool being used. SERVICE TIPS DTCs And Associated Fault PIDs Description Many of the continuous memory and on-demand DTCs that can be present in the RCM provide general fault information and require accessing the associated bit-mapped PIDs (fault PIDs) to identify the specific concern. DTCs that use fault PIDs are conceptually different from conventional DTCs. Conventional DTCs identify a specific concern for a given component and point to a particular diagnostic path. In the diagnostic path, PIDs are sometimes used to determine the root cause.

The DTC identifies the component(s) or type of component(s) in which the concern exists. The next level, fault PIDs, identifies the specific device and fault condition. Fault PIDs are available for both on-demand (active) and continuous memory (historic or intermittent) DTCs. A scan tool must be used to view the DTCs and their fault PIDs. The table lists those DTCs that are supported by associated fault PIDs. (Figures 1-5) VIEWING FAULT PIDS USING SCAN TOOLS WSM Direction to FLAG DTC/View Fault PIDs The information in viewing fault PIDs in the WSM has evolved over the years as the scan tools have transitioned. Examples of how the WSM may direct you to view fault PIDs are: ^ FLAG DTC XXXXX/Record All Flagged Faults (2001-2006 WS Ms) Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Restraint Systems > Air Bag Systems > Air Bag Control Module > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Restraints - Control Module DTCs & Associated Fault PIDs > Page 7748 ^ View and Record DTC XXXXX Fault PIDs (2007 WSM) ^ DataLogger/View and Record DTC XXXXX Fault Pids (2008 and future WSMs) In each instance the direction is the same (view fault PIDs to identify the specific component and fault condition) but how they are accessed by the scan tools, as well as the scan tool terminology, will vary. FLAG the DTC - View the Fault PIDs For example, the "Flag" DTC feature is specific to NGS/NGS+. When using IDS/PDS it is necessary to view the fault PIDs from DataLogger. Using IDS/PDS NOTE WHEN USING IDS/PDS, MOVE THE CURSOR OVER THE PID OR SELECT THE PID TO DISPLAY ITS DEFINITION AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN. WHEN USING PDS, HIGHLIGHT OR MOVE THE STYLUS OVER THE PID TO SEE THE PID DEFINITION. 1. Perform a self test of the RCM and/or OCS module to retrieve on-demand and continuous memory DTCs. 2. To view the fault PIDs associated with an on-demand DTC: a. Toolbox b. DataLogger c. Modules d. RCM 3. Monitor all "_OD" PID(s) matching the DTC present; follow diagnostic procedure for the PID that reads "FAULT". ^ For example, a B2296 fault is present. In DataLogger the fault PID 2296_18_OD PID reads "FAULT' indicating a front internal crash sensor fault. 4. To view the fault PIDs associated with a continuous memory DTC: a. Toolbox b. DataLogger c. Modules d. RCM 5. Monitor all "_CM" PID(s) matching the DTC present; follow diagnostic procedure for the PID that reads "FAULT". For example, a B2296 fault is present. In DataLogger the fault PID 2296_18_CM PID reads "FAULT" indicating a front internal crash sensor fault. IDS/PDS Fault PID Naming Conventions The fault PIDs as displayed on IDS/PDS uses a strategy associating it with the DTC. For example, the fault PIDs 2296_18_OD and 2296_18_CM break down as follows: ^ 2296 - The DTC number minus the "B" (body) or "C" (chassis) designation. ^ 18 - An identifier used to distinguish between each of the fault PIDs associated with the DTC. ^ OD - Identifies the fault PID as an on-demand fault. ^ CM - Identifies the fault PID as a continuous memory (intermittent) fault. NOTE THE DTCS AND FAULT PIDS SUPPORTED BY A VEHICLE WILL VARY DEPENDING ON VEHICLE EQUIPMENT.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in the inadvertent deployment of the safety canopy and risk of personal injury. - The restraints control module (RCM) orientation is critical for correct system operation. If a vehicle equipped with an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) has been involved in a collision in which the center tunnel area has been damaged, inspect the mounting and bracket for deformation. If damaged, a new RCM must be installed whether or not the air bags have deployed. In addition, make sure the area of the RCM mounting is restored to its original condition. CAUTION: When installing a new RCM on vehicles built 7/31/06 or after, it is necessary to carry out programmable module installation (PMI). NOTE: When installing a new RCM, always make sure the correct RCM is being installed. If an incorrect RCM is installed, erroneous DTCs will result. The RCM carries out the following functions: - deploys the air bag(s) in the event of a deployable crash. - activates the safety belt buckle pretensioner and safety belt adaptive load limiting retractor to control tension on the safety belt. - monitors the SRS for faults. - requests the illumination of the air bag indicator if a fault is detected. - communicates through the DLC the on-demand or continuous DTCs. The RCM monitors the SRS for possible faults. If a fault is detected while the ignition switch is in the ON position, the RCM will request illumination of 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 6 seconds and then off. If a SRS fault exists, the air bag indicator will illuminate and remain illuminated for the rest of the key cycle. The RCM will also communicate the on-demand (current) and continuous (historical) DTCs through the DLC, to the scan tool. If the RCM requests illumination of the air bag indicator and the air bag indicator does not function, the instrument cluster module will automatically activate an audible chime. The chime is a series of 5 sets of 5 tone bursts. If the chime is heard, the SRS and the air bag indicator require repair. 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 lost or damaged during impact. The backup power supply will deplete its stored energy approximately one minute after the battery ground cable is disconnected.

Vehicles built 7/31/06 or after 9. Carry out the steps necessary to complete PMI. All vehicles 10. Prove out the supplemental restraint system (SRS) as follows: Turn the ignition switch from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the ignition switch 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 6 seconds and then turn off. If an air bag SRS fault is present, the air bag indicator will: fail to light. - remain lit continuously. - flash at a 5 Hz rate (RCM not configured). The air bag indicator might not light 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 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 5 sets of 5 beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator and any SRS fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired. Clear all continuous diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) from the RCM and occupant classification sensor (OCS) module using a scan tool. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Restraint Systems > Air Bag Systems > Air Bag Deactivation Indicator > Component Information > Diagrams C2286 Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Restraint Systems > Air Bag Systems > Air Bag Deactivation Indicator > Component Information > Diagrams > Page 7763 Air Bag Deactivation Indicator: Description and Operation PASSENGER AIR BAG DEACTIVATION (PAD) INDICATOR The passenger air bag deactivation (PAD) indicator is a visual indicator used to inform the front seat occupants of the passenger air bag deactivation state. The PAD indicator is a stand-alone lamp installed into the vehicle instrument panel in a position visible to each front seat occupant. The RCM controls the state of the PAD indicator through a direct hardware connection, based on information provided by the occupant classification sensor (OCS) system. The PAD indicator is lit to indicate the passenger air bag module is disabled. An exemption to this is when the front passenger seat is determined to be empty and passenger safety belt buckle unbuckled, and therefore indication of a deactivated passenger air bag module is not necessary. In all other cases, the PAD indicator is unlit when the passenger air bag module is enabled. When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the PAD indicator prove-out period is initiated by the RCM. The RCM briefly activates the PAD indicator to prove-out the indicator function and verify to the front occupants correct functional operation of the PAD indicator. The PAD indicator will be lit/unlit within 1.0 to 1.5 seconds of a change of state from the OCS system. When an OCS system fault is present, the RCM defaults the passenger air bag module to the last valid state received from the OCS system until the ignition switch is turned OFF. If the OCS system fault is still present when the ignition switch is turned ON, the RCM defaults the passenger air bag module to enabled regardless of the size of occupant in the front passenger seat. The PAD indicator will be unlit. Passenger Air Bag And PAD Indicator Status The above table indicates the passenger air bag status and the PAD indicator status based the size of the front outboard passenger occupant Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Restraint Systems > Air Bag Systems > Air Bag Deactivation Indicator > Component Information > Diagrams > Page 7764 Air Bag Deactivation Indicator: Service and Repair PASSENGER AIR BAG DEACTIVATION (PAD) INDICATOR Removal and Installation WARNING: - Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module.

ISSUE Various 2001-2007 vehicles are equipped with a restraints control module (RCM) that report diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) which provide general fault information. These DTCs require accessing the associated bit-mapped PIDs (fault PIDs) to identify the specific fault. Most 2001-2006 Workshop Manuals (WSM) were written using New Generation STAR Tester (NGS) terminology and navigation which does not translate well when using Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS), Portable Diagnostic Software (PDS) or Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS). ACTION Refer to the Service Tips to assist with navigation of both the WSM and the scan tool being used. SERVICE TIPS DTCs And Associated Fault PIDs Description Many of the continuous memory and on-demand DTCs that can be present in the RCM provide general fault information and require accessing the associated bit-mapped PIDs (fault PIDs) to identify the specific concern. DTCs that use fault PIDs are conceptually different from conventional DTCs. Conventional DTCs identify a specific concern for a given component and point to a particular diagnostic path. In the diagnostic path, PIDs are sometimes used to determine the root cause.

The DTC identifies the component(s) or type of component(s) in which the concern exists. The next level, fault PIDs, identifies the specific device and fault condition. Fault PIDs are available for both on-demand (active) and continuous memory (historic or intermittent) DTCs. A scan tool must be used to view the DTCs and their fault PIDs. The table lists those DTCs that are supported by associated fault PIDs. (Figures 1-5) VIEWING FAULT PIDS USING SCAN TOOLS WSM Direction to FLAG DTC/View Fault PIDs The information in viewing fault PIDs in the WSM has evolved over the years as the scan tools have transitioned. Examples of how the WSM may direct you to view fault PIDs are: ^ FLAG DTC XXXXX/Record All Flagged Faults (2001-2006 WS Ms) Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Restraint Systems > Relays and Modules - Restraint Systems > Air Bag Control Module > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Restraints - Control Module DTCs & Associated Fault PIDs > Page 7847 ^ View and Record DTC XXXXX Fault PIDs (2007 WSM) ^ DataLogger/View and Record DTC XXXXX Fault Pids (2008 and future WSMs) In each instance the direction is the same (view fault PIDs to identify the specific component and fault condition) but how they are accessed by the scan tools, as well as the scan tool terminology, will vary. FLAG the DTC - View the Fault PIDs For example, the "Flag" DTC feature is specific to NGS/NGS+. When using IDS/PDS it is necessary to view the fault PIDs from DataLogger. Using IDS/PDS NOTE WHEN USING IDS/PDS, MOVE THE CURSOR OVER THE PID OR SELECT THE PID TO DISPLAY ITS DEFINITION AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN. WHEN USING PDS, HIGHLIGHT OR MOVE THE STYLUS OVER THE PID TO SEE THE PID DEFINITION. 1. Perform a self test of the RCM and/or OCS module to retrieve on-demand and continuous memory DTCs. 2. To view the fault PIDs associated with an on-demand DTC: a. Toolbox b. DataLogger c. Modules d. RCM 3. Monitor all "_OD" PID(s) matching the DTC present; follow diagnostic procedure for the PID that reads "FAULT". ^ For example, a B2296 fault is present. In DataLogger the fault PID 2296_18_OD PID reads "FAULT' indicating a front internal crash sensor fault. 4. To view the fault PIDs associated with a continuous memory DTC: a. Toolbox b. DataLogger c. Modules d. RCM 5. Monitor all "_CM" PID(s) matching the DTC present; follow diagnostic procedure for the PID that reads "FAULT". For example, a B2296 fault is present. In DataLogger the fault PID 2296_18_CM PID reads "FAULT" indicating a front internal crash sensor fault. IDS/PDS Fault PID Naming Conventions The fault PIDs as displayed on IDS/PDS uses a strategy associating it with the DTC. For example, the fault PIDs 2296_18_OD and 2296_18_CM break down as follows: ^ 2296 - The DTC number minus the "B" (body) or "C" (chassis) designation. ^ 18 - An identifier used to distinguish between each of the fault PIDs associated with the DTC. ^ OD - Identifies the fault PID as an on-demand fault. ^ CM - Identifies the fault PID as a continuous memory (intermittent) fault. NOTE THE DTCS AND FAULT PIDS SUPPORTED BY A VEHICLE WILL VARY DEPENDING ON VEHICLE EQUIPMENT.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in the inadvertent deployment of the safety canopy and risk of personal injury. - The restraints control module (RCM) orientation is critical for correct system operation. If a vehicle equipped with an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) has been involved in a collision in which the center tunnel area has been damaged, inspect the mounting and bracket for deformation. If damaged, a new RCM must be installed whether or not the air bags have deployed. In addition, make sure the area of the RCM mounting is restored to its original condition. CAUTION: When installing a new RCM on vehicles built 7/31/06 or after, it is necessary to carry out programmable module installation (PMI). NOTE: When installing a new RCM, always make sure the correct RCM is being installed. If an incorrect RCM is installed, erroneous DTCs will result. The RCM carries out the following functions: - deploys the air bag(s) in the event of a deployable crash. - activates the safety belt buckle pretensioner and safety belt adaptive load limiting retractor to control tension on the safety belt. - monitors the SRS for faults. - requests the illumination of the air bag indicator if a fault is detected. - communicates through the DLC the on-demand or continuous DTCs. The RCM monitors the SRS for possible faults. If a fault is detected while the ignition switch is in the ON position, the RCM will request illumination of 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 6 seconds and then off. If a SRS fault exists, the air bag indicator will illuminate and remain illuminated for the rest of the key cycle. The RCM will also communicate the on-demand (current) and continuous (historical) DTCs through the DLC, to the scan tool. If the RCM requests illumination of the air bag indicator and the air bag indicator does not function, the instrument cluster module will automatically activate an audible chime. The chime is a series of 5 sets of 5 tone bursts. If the chime is heard, the SRS and the air bag indicator require repair. 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 lost or damaged during impact. The backup power supply will deplete its stored energy approximately one minute after the battery ground cable is disconnected.

ISSUE Various 2001-2007 vehicles are equipped with a restraints control module (RCM) that report diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) which provide general fault information. These DTCs require accessing the associated bit-mapped PIDs (fault PIDs) to identify the specific fault. Most 2001-2006 Workshop Manuals (WSM) were written using New Generation STAR Tester (NGS) terminology and navigation which does not translate well when using Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS), Portable Diagnostic Software (PDS) or Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS). ACTION Refer to the Service Tips to assist with navigation of both the WSM and the scan tool being used. SERVICE TIPS DTCs And Associated Fault PIDs Description Many of the continuous memory and on-demand DTCs that can be present in the RCM provide general fault information and require accessing the associated bit-mapped PIDs (fault PIDs) to identify the specific concern. DTCs that use fault PIDs are conceptually different from conventional DTCs. Conventional DTCs identify a specific concern for a given component and point to a particular diagnostic path. In the diagnostic path, PIDs are sometimes used to determine the root cause.

The DTC identifies the component(s) or type of component(s) in which the concern exists. The next level, fault PIDs, identifies the specific device and fault condition. Fault PIDs are available for both on-demand (active) and continuous memory (historic or intermittent) DTCs. A scan tool must be used to view the DTCs and their fault PIDs. The table lists those DTCs that are supported by associated fault PIDs. (Figures 1-5) VIEWING FAULT PIDS USING SCAN TOOLS WSM Direction to FLAG DTC/View Fault PIDs The information in viewing fault PIDs in the WSM has evolved over the years as the scan tools have transitioned. Examples of how the WSM may direct you to view fault PIDs are: ^ FLAG DTC XXXXX/Record All Flagged Faults (2001-2006 WS Ms) Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Restraint Systems > Relays and Modules - Restraint Systems > Seat Belt Control Module > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Restraints - Control Module DTCs & Associated Fault PIDs > Page 7868 ^ View and Record DTC XXXXX Fault PIDs (2007 WSM) ^ DataLogger/View and Record DTC XXXXX Fault Pids (2008 and future WSMs) In each instance the direction is the same (view fault PIDs to identify the specific component and fault condition) but how they are accessed by the scan tools, as well as the scan tool terminology, will vary. FLAG the DTC - View the Fault PIDs For example, the "Flag" DTC feature is specific to NGS/NGS+. When using IDS/PDS it is necessary to view the fault PIDs from DataLogger. Using IDS/PDS NOTE WHEN USING IDS/PDS, MOVE THE CURSOR OVER THE PID OR SELECT THE PID TO DISPLAY ITS DEFINITION AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN. WHEN USING PDS, HIGHLIGHT OR MOVE THE STYLUS OVER THE PID TO SEE THE PID DEFINITION. 1. Perform a self test of the RCM and/or OCS module to retrieve on-demand and continuous memory DTCs. 2. To view the fault PIDs associated with an on-demand DTC: a. Toolbox b. DataLogger c. Modules d. RCM 3. Monitor all "_OD" PID(s) matching the DTC present; follow diagnostic procedure for the PID that reads "FAULT". ^ For example, a B2296 fault is present. In DataLogger the fault PID 2296_18_OD PID reads "FAULT' indicating a front internal crash sensor fault. 4. To view the fault PIDs associated with a continuous memory DTC: a. Toolbox b. DataLogger c. Modules d. RCM 5. Monitor all "_CM" PID(s) matching the DTC present; follow diagnostic procedure for the PID that reads "FAULT". For example, a B2296 fault is present. In DataLogger the fault PID 2296_18_CM PID reads "FAULT" indicating a front internal crash sensor fault. IDS/PDS Fault PID Naming Conventions The fault PIDs as displayed on IDS/PDS uses a strategy associating it with the DTC. For example, the fault PIDs 2296_18_OD and 2296_18_CM break down as follows: ^ 2296 - The DTC number minus the "B" (body) or "C" (chassis) designation. ^ 18 - An identifier used to distinguish between each of the fault PIDs associated with the DTC. ^ OD - Identifies the fault PID as an on-demand fault. ^ CM - Identifies the fault PID as a continuous memory (intermittent) fault. NOTE THE DTCS AND FAULT PIDS SUPPORTED BY A VEHICLE WILL VARY DEPENDING ON VEHICLE EQUIPMENT.

Wait 10 seconds, then turn the switch 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 6 seconds and then turn off. If an air bag SRS fault is present, the air bag indicator will: fail to light. - remain lit continuously. - flash at a 5 Hz rate (RCM not configured). The air bag indicator might not light 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 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 5 sets of 5 beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator and any SRS fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired. Clear all continuous DTCs from the RCM and occupant classification sensor (OCS) module using a scan tool.

The safety belt buckle switches are comprised of integrated circuits called Hall-effect sensors. The safety belt buckle switches (Hall-effect sensors) are located in the driver and front passenger safety belt buckles. The safety belt buckle switches indicate to the RCM whether the safety belts are buckled or unbuckled. The RCM uses this information in determining the deployment rate of the dual-stage driver and passenger air bag modules. The RCM also communicates the driver safety belt buckle switch status to the instrument cluster module, which monitors the information to control the safety belt warning indicator.

ISSUE Various 2001-2007 vehicles are equipped with a restraints control module (RCM) that report diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) which provide general fault information. These DTCs require accessing the associated bit-mapped PIDs (fault PIDs) to identify the specific fault. Most 2001-2006 Workshop Manuals (WSM) were written using New Generation STAR Tester (NGS) terminology and navigation which does not translate well when using Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS), Portable Diagnostic Software (PDS) or Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS). ACTION Refer to the Service Tips to assist with navigation of both the WSM and the scan tool being used. SERVICE TIPS DTCs And Associated Fault PIDs Description Many of the continuous memory and on-demand DTCs that can be present in the RCM provide general fault information and require accessing the associated bit-mapped PIDs (fault PIDs) to identify the specific concern. DTCs that use fault PIDs are conceptually different from conventional DTCs. Conventional DTCs identify a specific concern for a given component and point to a particular diagnostic path. In the diagnostic path, PIDs are sometimes used to determine the root cause.

The DTC identifies the component(s) or type of component(s) in which the concern exists. The next level, fault PIDs, identifies the specific device and fault condition. Fault PIDs are available for both on-demand (active) and continuous memory (historic or intermittent) DTCs. A scan tool must be used to view the DTCs and their fault PIDs. The table lists those DTCs that are supported by associated fault PIDs. (Figures 1-5) VIEWING FAULT PIDS USING SCAN TOOLS WSM Direction to FLAG DTC/View Fault PIDs The information in viewing fault PIDs in the WSM has evolved over the years as the scan tools have transitioned. Examples of how the WSM may direct you to view fault PIDs are: ^ FLAG DTC XXXXX/Record All Flagged Faults (2001-2006 WS Ms) Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Restraint Systems > Seat Belt Systems > Seat Belt Control Module > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Restraints - Control Module DTCs & Associated Fault PIDs > Page 7942 ^ View and Record DTC XXXXX Fault PIDs (2007 WSM) ^ DataLogger/View and Record DTC XXXXX Fault Pids (2008 and future WSMs) In each instance the direction is the same (view fault PIDs to identify the specific component and fault condition) but how they are accessed by the scan tools, as well as the scan tool terminology, will vary. FLAG the DTC - View the Fault PIDs For example, the "Flag" DTC feature is specific to NGS/NGS+. When using IDS/PDS it is necessary to view the fault PIDs from DataLogger. Using IDS/PDS NOTE WHEN USING IDS/PDS, MOVE THE CURSOR OVER THE PID OR SELECT THE PID TO DISPLAY ITS DEFINITION AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN. WHEN USING PDS, HIGHLIGHT OR MOVE THE STYLUS OVER THE PID TO SEE THE PID DEFINITION. 1. Perform a self test of the RCM and/or OCS module to retrieve on-demand and continuous memory DTCs. 2. To view the fault PIDs associated with an on-demand DTC: a. Toolbox b. DataLogger c. Modules d. RCM 3. Monitor all "_OD" PID(s) matching the DTC present; follow diagnostic procedure for the PID that reads "FAULT". ^ For example, a B2296 fault is present. In DataLogger the fault PID 2296_18_OD PID reads "FAULT' indicating a front internal crash sensor fault. 4. To view the fault PIDs associated with a continuous memory DTC: a. Toolbox b. DataLogger c. Modules d. RCM 5. Monitor all "_CM" PID(s) matching the DTC present; follow diagnostic procedure for the PID that reads "FAULT". For example, a B2296 fault is present. In DataLogger the fault PID 2296_18_CM PID reads "FAULT" indicating a front internal crash sensor fault. IDS/PDS Fault PID Naming Conventions The fault PIDs as displayed on IDS/PDS uses a strategy associating it with the DTC. For example, the fault PIDs 2296_18_OD and 2296_18_CM break down as follows: ^ 2296 - The DTC number minus the "B" (body) or "C" (chassis) designation. ^ 18 - An identifier used to distinguish between each of the fault PIDs associated with the DTC. ^ OD - Identifies the fault PID as an on-demand fault. ^ CM - Identifies the fault PID as a continuous memory (intermittent) fault. NOTE THE DTCS AND FAULT PIDS SUPPORTED BY A VEHICLE WILL VARY DEPENDING ON VEHICLE EQUIPMENT.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Restraint Systems > Seat Belt Systems > Seat Belt Reminder Lamp > Component Information > Description and Operation Seat Belt Reminder Lamp: Description and Operation Safety Belt Warning Indicator And Chime The warning indicator and chime are reminders to fasten the safety belt. The system operates as follows: If the driver safety belt is not buckled before the ignition switch is turned to the RUN or START position, the indicator will illuminate for 1-2 minutes and the chime will sound for 4-8 seconds. - If the driver safety belt is buckled while the indicator is on and the chime is sounding, both the indicator and chime will turn off. - If the safety belt is buckled before the ignition is turned to the ON position, neither the indicator nor the chime will turn on. Belt Minder The Belt Minder feature is a supplemental warning to the safety belt warning function. This feature provides an additional reminder that the driver's and/or front passenger's safety belt is unbuckled by intermittently sounding a chime and illuminating the safety belt warning lamp in the instrument cluster. To activate or deactivate the Belt Minder feature, refer to Seat Belt Systems or the owner's literature.

Adaptive load limiting retractors are pyrotechnic devices integrated to the driver and front passenger safety belt retractor assemblies. Adaptive load limiting retractors work in conjunction with the safety belt buckle pretensioners to control the tension of the driver and front passenger safety belts. The RCM monitors the readiness of the adaptive load limiting retractor. The RCM uses this information and all other information provided by the restraints system to determine what action to be taken. Dual Locking Mode Retractors WARNING: After any vehicle collision, the safety belt system at all outboard seating positions (except driver, which has no automatic locking retractor [ALR] feature) must be checked by a qualified technician to verify that the ALR feature for child seats is still functioning correctly, in addition to other checks for correct safety belt system function. A new belt and retractor assembly must be installed if the safety belt assembly's ALR feature or any other safety belt function is not operating correctly when checked according to the procedures. Failure to install a new belt and retractor assembly could increase the risk of injury in collisions. NOTE: When installing a dual locking mode retractor, the retractor should be checked to make sure it is not in the automatic locking retractor (ALR) mode after installation in the stowed position. All outboard continuous-loop, 3-point retractor systems, except the driver position, are equipped with the dual locking mode system. The emergency locking retractor (ELR) mode will allow the occupant freedom of movement, locking tight only on hard braking, hard cornering or an impact of approximately 8 km/h (5 mph). The ELR mode helps to reduce the forward movement of the driver and passengers. The ELR mode is continuously in operation at all seating positions. The ALR portion of this system does not allow the occupant freedom of movement. The ALR mode is used when locking a child safety seat in an outboard seating position or when a tight belt fit is desired. The ALR mode is disengaged when the webbing is free to move in or out of the retractor. The ALR mode is automatically engaged when the webbing is fully extracted from the retractor and then allowed to retract. As the webbing is retracted back onto the spool, an audible clicking sound is made, indicating that the retractor is in ALR mode. The ALR mode is automatically disengaged when most of the webbing is retracted back onto the spool. The automatic locking mode must be used when installing a child safety seat in the front or rear passenger seating positions where dual locking mode retractors are provided. Energy Management Retractor This vehicle has a safety belt system with an energy management feature at the front seating positions to help further reduce the risk of injury in the event of a head-on collision. The energy management retractor feature is designed to pay out webbing in a controlled manner. This feature is designed to help reduce the belt force acting on an occupant's chest.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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.

It may be reported that the radio Seek function is inoperative, Seek will not stop (keeps scrolling through stations) or the radio exhibits Poor FM reception. This may be due to a misunderstanding of how the operation of the PTY (Program Type) feature functions. The PTY feature filters out radio stations that do not fit a selected category of radio programming like: Top 40, Classical, and News. The result is a "continuous seek" condition if the feature is activated and no stations are found under the selected category. ACTION Follow the Service Procedure to identify the PTY (Program Type) setting. SERVICE PROCEDURE To confirm the PTY (Program Type) setting use the following steps: 1. Under MEDIA, select the FM tab. (If you do not see an RDS and PTY button, push the SHOW OPTIONS buttons). 2. Verify RDS and PTY are enabled by the buttons being illuminated. If the text, above the SET PTY button says anything other than ALL, the unit is filtering for radio stations that transmit RDS text and are categorized as the selected Program Type, like: Top 40, Classical, and News. (See Figure 1) 3. To change the setting, either press the SET PTY button and select ALL. Or disable the PTY feature by pushing the PTY button.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Accessories and Optional Equipment > Towing / Trailer System > Trailer Connector > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8291 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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.

This will reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accidental deployment. - Never probe the connectors on the air bag module. Doing so can result in air bag deployment, which can result in personal injury. - Never probe the electrical connector on a safety canopy module. Doing so can result in safety canopy deployment. - Do not handle, move or change the original horizontal mounting position of the restraints control module (RCM) while the RCM is connected and the ignition switch is ON. Failure to follow these instructions may result in the inadvertent deployment of the safety canopy and risk of personal injury. - To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices. NOTE: - If a seat equipped with a SRS component is being serviced, the SRS must be depowered. - 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. - 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 smart junction box (SJB), located below the LH side of the instrument panel, remove the cover and the restraints control module (RCM) fuse 17 (10A) from the SJB. 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 switch to OFF. 6. WARNING: To avoid accidental deployment and possible personal injury, the backup power supply must be depleted before repairing or installing any front or side air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) components and before servicing, installing, 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 front impact severity sensors are located on the radiator support bracket above the lower front splash shield. The front door side impact sensors are located in the first row doors, behind the door trim panel. The C-pillar side impact sensors (if equipped) are located on the C-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).

Turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON. 3. Install RCM fuse 17 (10A) to the SJB 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 SRS as follows: Turn the ignition switch from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the ignition switch 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 6 seconds and then turn off. If an air bag SRS fault is present, the air bag indicator will: fail to light. - remain lit continuously. - flash at a 5 Hz rate (RCM not configured). The air bag indicator might not light 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 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 5 sets of 5 beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator and any SRS fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired. Clear all continuous diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) from the RCM and occupant classification sensor (OCS) module using a scan tool.

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. 29. Prove out the supplemental restraint system (SRS) as follows: Turn the ignition switch from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the switch 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 6 seconds and then turn off. If an air bag SRS fault is present, the air bag indicator will: fail to light. - remain lit continuously. - flash at a 5 Hz rate (RCM not configured). The air bag indicator might not light 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 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 5 sets of 5 beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator and any SRS fault discovered must be diagnosed and repaired. Clear all continuous DTCs from the RCM and occupant classification sensor (OCS) module using a scan tool.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Body and Frame > Seats > Seat Heater > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions Seat Heater: Diagram Information and Instructions Introduction 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 diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Body and Frame > Seats > Seat Heater > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9339 Fuse and Relay Information Fuse and Relay Information contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which fuses and relays are identified, numbered and named. Fuse and relay numbering and naming follow the indication of the fuse panel cover. In addition, for all removable relays, pin positions are added to illustrate proper orientation. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Body and Frame > Seats > Seat Heater > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9340 Power Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams shows the current feed circuits. 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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Body and Frame > Seats > Seat Heater > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9341 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,catalytic converter and muffler. - Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery.

The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical evaluation as shown in each illustration. NOTE: Several components, such as the 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. Terminal not properly seated 1 = Locked terminal 2 = Male half 3 = Female half 4 = Seal 5 = Intermittent contact 6 = Unlocked terminal (Hidden by wire seal) 7 = Seal Check for unlocked terminals by pulling each wire at the end of the connector. Defective insulation stripping 1 = Proper crimp 2 = Insulation not removed Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Body and Frame > Seats > Seat Heater > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9348 3 = Wire strands missing 4 = Intermittent signals through pierced insulation Partially mated connectors 1 = Seal 2 = Displaced tab 3 = Female half 4 = Seal 5 = Intermittent contact 6 = Male half 7 = Intermittent contact Lock may be displaced into an unlocked position; pull on the connector to verify the lock.

NOTE: Wait for solder to cool before moving wires. 7. Evenly position heat shrink tubing over wire repair. NOTE: Overlap tubing on both wires. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Body and Frame > Seats > Seat Heater > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9352 8. Use shielded heat gun to heat the repaired area until adhesive flows out of both ends of heat shrink tubing. 9. Reconnect battery ground cable. Recommended splicing method - Crimp (For 10-22 AWG Diameter Wire to Like Wire Diameter) 1. Disconnect battery ground cable. 2. Strip 1/4" (6.35mm) of insulation from each wire end, taking care not to nick or cut wire strands. 3. Install heat shrink tubing. NOTE: Use heat shrinkable tubes marked with ES-1 (16-22 GA) or ES-2 (10-18 GA) to seal wire splice. 4. Select appropriate wire splice for the wires to be spliced. 5. Identify the appropriate crimping chamber on the Rotunda 164-R5901 Pro-Crimper by matching the wire size on the dies with the wire size stamped on the butt splice. NOTE: Rotunda 164-R5901 Pro-Crimper is the only tool that can be used with these splices. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Body and Frame > Seats > Seat Heater > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9353 6. Center one end of the wire splice in the appropriate crimping chamber. 7. If visible, be sure to place the brazed seam toward the indenter. 8. Insert stripped wire into the barrel. 9. Holding the wire in place, squeeze tool handles until ratchet releases. 10. Repeating steps 5-7, crimp the other half of the splice. 11. Check for acceptable crimp. a. Crimp should be centered on each end of the butt splice. b. Wire insulation does not enter butt splice. c. Wire is visible through inspection hole of splices. 12. Evenly position supplied heat shrink tubing over wire repair. 13. Use shielded heat gun to heat the repaired area until adhesive flows out of both ends of the heat shrink tubing. 14. Reconnect battery ground cable.

Examples may include but are not limited to respirators and chemically resistant gloves. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury. NOTICE: - Mastic is made of a combustible material and should be removed prior to carrying out welding procedures to the area. Heat zones from welding near the mastic may cause the mastic material to burn. - Corrosion protection must be restored to the area AFTER the mastic material is applied. Corrosion protection products may be wax based and loss of adhesion may occur. NOTE: - The following illustrations serve as a reference to indicate mastic patch (butyl pad) locations. Additional insulators and sound deadeners are used beyond those indicated in the illustration. - To restore the vehicle to design intent, missing or damaged sound deadeners and insulators should be installed new with the correct service replacement component.

The PAD indicator is a stand-alone lamp installed into the vehicle instrument panel in a position visible to each front seat occupant. The RCM controls the state of the PAD indicator through a direct hardware connection, based on information provided by the occupant classification sensor (OCS) system. The PAD indicator is lit to indicate the passenger air bag module is disabled. An exemption to this is when the front passenger seat is determined to be empty and passenger safety belt buckle unbuckled, and therefore indication of a deactivated passenger air bag module is not necessary. In all other cases, the PAD indicator is unlit when the passenger air bag module is enabled. When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the PAD indicator prove-out period is initiated by the RCM. The RCM briefly activates the PAD indicator to prove-out the indicator function and verify to the front occupants correct functional operation of the PAD indicator. The PAD indicator will be lit/unlit within 1.0 to 1.5 seconds of a change of state from the OCS system. When an OCS system fault is present, the RCM defaults the passenger air bag module to the last valid state received from the OCS system until the ignition switch is turned OFF. If the OCS system fault is still present when the ignition switch is turned ON, the RCM defaults the passenger air bag module to enabled regardless of the size of occupant in the front passenger seat. The PAD indicator will be unlit.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators > Cigarette Lighter > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions Cigarette Lighter: Diagram Information and Instructions Introduction 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 diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators > Cigarette Lighter > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9551 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location views.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators > Fuel Gauge > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9694 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

The fuel pump is located inside the FP module reservoir and supplies fuel through the FP module manifold to the engine and FP module jet pump. The jet pump continuously refills the reservoir with fuel, and a check valve located in the manifold outlet maintains system pressure when the fuel pump is not energized. A flapper valve located in the bottom of the reservoir allows fuel to enter the reservoir and prime the fuel pump during the initial fill. FUEL PUMP (FP) MODULE AND RESERVOIR The FP module is mounted inside the fuel tank in a reservoir. The pump has a discharge check valve that maintains the system pressure after the key has been turned off to minimize starting concerns. The reservoir prevents fuel flow interruptions during extreme vehicle maneuvers with low tank fill levels.

The fuel pump is located inside the FP module reservoir and supplies fuel through the FP module manifold to the engine and FP module jet pump. The jet pump continuously refills the reservoir with fuel, and a check valve located in the manifold outlet maintains system pressure when the fuel pump is not energized. A flapper valve located in the bottom of the reservoir allows fuel to enter the reservoir and prime the fuel pump during the initial fill. FUEL PUMP (FP) MODULE AND RESERVOIR The FP module is mounted inside the fuel tank in a reservoir. The pump has a discharge check valve that maintains the system pressure after the key has been turned off to minimize starting concerns. The reservoir prevents fuel flow interruptions during extreme vehicle maneuvers with low tank fill levels.

Treat these messages as TPMS faults that must be serviced. TPMS Indicator Illuminates Continuously NOTE: If the spare tire is in use, the damaged road tire must be repaired and installed on the vehicle to restore complete TPMS functionality before carrying out any diagnosis. 1. The TPMS indicator remains on continuously for this condition: ^ Low Tire Pressure - The TPMS indicator is illuminated solid and the message center displays LOW TIRE PRESSURE (if equipped). This is displayed when any of the tire pressures are low. When this condition exists, the tire pressure must be adjusted to the recommended cold pressure as indicated on the vehicle certification label. 2. NOTE: The TPMS sensors do not transmit when the vehicle is stationary. If the vehicle has been stationary for more than 30 minutes, it will be necessary to wake up the sensors so they will transmit the latest tire pressure information to the SJB. If the vehicle has been stationary for more than 30 minutes, carry out this procedure to wake up the TPMS sensors. 1 Turn the ignition switch to the ON position. 2 Adjust the air pressure in the LF tire. 3 Activate the LF TPMS sensor, at least 2 times, using the tire pressure monitor activation tool. 4 Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for the remaining tires. 5 If the TPMS indicator remains illuminated after adjusting and activating each sensor, GO to Symptom Chart. See: Testing and Inspection/Symptom Related Diagnostic Procedures TPMS Indicator Flashes The TPMS indicator flashes for 70 seconds and then remains ON solid when the ignition key is turned to the ON position for these conditions: 1. Tire Pressure Sensor Fault - If equipped, the message center will display TIRE SENSOR FAULT when a tire pressure sensor is malfunctioning. GO to Symptom Chart. See: Testing and Inspection/Symptom Related Diagnostic Procedures 2. No communication with the SJB (TPMS is integral to the SJB) - The TPMS indicator is illuminated when the instrument cluster has received no signals from the SJB for more than 5 seconds. If equipped, the message center displays TIRE MONITOR FAULT. GO to Symptom Chart. See: Testing and Inspection/Symptom Related Diagnostic Procedures 3. Tire Pressure Monitor Fault - If equipped, the message center will display TIRE MONITOR FAULT when the tire pressure monitoring system is malfunctioning or communication with the instrument cluster has been lost. GO to Symptom Chart. See: Testing and Inspection/Symptom Related Diagnostic Procedures Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators > Tire Monitoring System > Tire Pressure Sensor > Component Information > Testing and Inspection Tire Pressure Sensor: Testing and Inspection Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Sensor Training Special Tool(s) NOTE: If the vehicle has been stationary for more than 30 minutes, the sensors will go into a "sleep mode" to conserve battery power. It will be necessary to wake them up so they will transmit the latest tire pressure information to the Smart Junction Box (SJB). NOTE: The tire pressure sensor training procedure must be done on a single vehicle, in an area without radio frequency noise and at least 1 m (3 ft) away from other vehicles equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). Radio frequency noise is generated by electrical motors and appliance operation, cellular telephones, remote transmitters, power inverters and portable entertainment equipment. NOTE: If a sensor does not respond to the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool, attempt to activate the same sensor with the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool. If the sensor still does not respond, move the vehicle to rotate the wheels at least one-fourth of a turn and attempt to activate the same sensor again. NOTE: The SJB has a 2-minute time limit between sensor responses. If the SJB does not recognize any 1 of the 4 tire pressure sensors during this time limit, the horn will sound twice and the message center (if equipped) will display TIRE NOT TRAINED REPEAT and the entire procedure must be repeated. NOTE: For vehicles with different front and rear tire pressures (such as the E-Series and certain F-Series), the tire pressure sensors must be trained following a tire rotation. Failure to train the sensors will cause the TPMS indicator to illuminate. For vehicles with the same tire pressure for front and rear tires, tire rotation will not affect the system. 1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position, then press and release the brake pedal. 2. Cycle the ignition switch from the OFF position to the RUN position 3 times, ending in the RUN position. 3. Press and release the brake pedal. 4. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position. 5. Turn the ignition switch from the OFF position to the RUN position 3 times, ending in the RUN position. - The horn will sound once and the TPMS indicator will flash if the training mode has been entered successfully. If equipped, the message center will display TRAIN LF TIRE. NOTE: It may take up to 6 seconds to activate a tire pressure sensor. During this time, the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool must remain in place 180 degrees from the valve stem. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators > Tire Monitoring System > Tire Pressure Sensor > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Page 9926 6. Place the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool on the LF tire sidewall opposite (180 degrees) from the valve stem. Press and release the test button on the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool. The horn will sound briefly to indicate that the tire pressure sensor has been recognized by the SJB. 7. Within 2 minutes of the horn sounding, place the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool on the RF tire sidewall opposite (180 degrees) from the valve stem and press and release the test button to train the RF tire pressure sensor. NOTE: Do not wait more than 2 minutes between training each sensor or the SJB will time out and the entire procedure must be repeated. 8. Repeat Step 7 for the RR and LR tires. The procedure is completed after the last tire has been trained. When the training procedure is complete, the message center (if equipped) will display TIRE TRAINING COMPLETE. For vehicles not equipped with a message center, successful completion of the training procedure will be verified by turning the ignition switch to the OFF position without the horn sounding. If the horn sounds twice when the switch is turned to the OFF position, the training procedure was not successful. 9. Using the scan tool, locate the updated TPMS sensor identifiers trained to the SJB and document them on the applicable warranty claim. NOTE: This step is required to clear DTC C2780, cause the SJB to exit the manufacturing mode and to make sure there are no other concerns with a newly programmed SJB. 10. If the sensors are being trained due to the installation of a new SJB, clear any DTCs and carry out the SJB On-Demand Self Test.

PARK is a good position to check for intermittent open circuits (with scan tool monitoring TRD). ^ TR4, TR3A, TR2 and TR1 are all open in OVERDRIVE, so OVERDRIVE is a good position to check for shorts to ground. To determine the shorted components while observing TRD, unplug the TR and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present unplug the transmission harness and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present, then the short is in the PCM or vehicle harness. Remove the suspect circuit(s) wire terminal from the PCM connector. If the short is still present, then the PCM has an internal failure, otherwise the failure is in the vehicle harness. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Brake Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions Brake Lamp: Diagram Information and Instructions Introduction 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 diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Brake Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9954 Fuse and Relay Information Fuse and Relay Information contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which fuses and relays are identified, numbered and named. Fuse and relay numbering and naming follow the indication of the fuse panel cover. In addition, for all removable relays, pin positions are added to illustrate proper orientation. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Brake Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9955 Power Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams shows the current feed circuits. 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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Brake Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9956 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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, tail pipe,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.

The BPP switch provides a signal to the PCM indicating that the brakes are applied. The BPP switch is normally open and is mounted on the brake pedal support. Depending on the vehicle application the BPP switch can be hardwired as follows: - to the PCM supplying battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is applied. - to the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, or lighting control module (LCM), the BPP signal is then broadcast over the network to be received by the PCM. - to the ABS traction control/stability assist module. The ABS module interprets the BPP switch input along with other ABS inputs and generates an output called the driver brake application (DBA) signal. The DBA signal is then sent to the PCM and to other BPP signal users.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Daytime Running Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 10019 Fuse and Relay Information Fuse and Relay Information contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which fuses and relays are identified, numbered and named. Fuse and relay numbering and naming follow the indication of the fuse panel cover. In addition, for all removable relays, pin positions are added to illustrate proper orientation. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Daytime Running Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 10020 Power Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams shows the current feed circuits. 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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Daytime Running Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 10021 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name.

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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > License Plate Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 10119 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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.

PARK is a good position to check for intermittent open circuits (with scan tool monitoring TRD). ^ TR4, TR3A, TR2 and TR1 are all open in OVERDRIVE, so OVERDRIVE is a good position to check for shorts to ground. To determine the shorted components while observing TRD, unplug the TR and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present unplug the transmission harness and determine if the short goes away. If the short is still present, then the short is in the PCM or vehicle harness. Remove the suspect circuit(s) wire terminal from the PCM connector. If the short is still present, then the PCM has an internal failure, otherwise the failure is in the vehicle harness.

The BPP switch provides a signal to the PCM indicating that the brakes are applied. The BPP switch is normally open and is mounted on the brake pedal support. Depending on the vehicle application the BPP switch can be hardwired as follows: - to the PCM supplying battery positive voltage (B+) when the vehicle brake pedal is applied. - to the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, or lighting control module (LCM), the BPP signal is then broadcast over the network to be received by the PCM. - to the ABS traction control/stability assist module. The ABS module interprets the BPP switch input along with other ABS inputs and generates an output called the driver brake application (DBA) signal. The DBA signal is then sent to the PCM and to other BPP signal users.

Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Tail Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions Tail Lamp: Diagram Information and Instructions Introduction 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 diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams.

It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagrams 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 that 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. Other components that are connected to the circuits may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation. Current Flow (1) Each set 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. A full representation of the power supply of a fuse or the power distribution from a fuse to various components is given in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Full representation of the ground connections are shown in Power and Distribution Diagrams. Switch Positions (2) Within a diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (ignition switch OFF). Splices (3) Splices directly connecting to the power distribution are best represented on the power distribution diagrams in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. Splices connected to grounds can be seen completely in Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams. For all other splices, a reference is given to each off diagram where that particular splice can be best viewed. Component Referencing (4) Components on a diagram have a reference to a component location view or the diagram where it is shown completely. The reference is located to the right of each component. Component Names (5) Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component when possible. Descriptions of the internals of the component are also included when available. The diagram where the component appears in full is listed in the Index. The base part number for a component is listed in Vehicle/Diagrams. Internal Name and Function Identification Numbers (6) Some components on each diagram have internal symbols with an identification number located within it. You can identify the internal symbol or function by finding the corresponding number under the component name. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Wiper and Washer Systems > Wiper Motor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 10555 Fuse and Relay Information Fuse and Relay Information contains a view of the fuse/relay box in which fuses and relays are identified, numbered and named. Fuse and relay numbering and naming follow the indication of the fuse panel cover. In addition, for all removable relays, pin positions are added to illustrate proper orientation. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Wiper and Washer Systems > Wiper Motor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 10556 Power Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams shows the current feed circuits. 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. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Wiper and Washer Systems > Wiper Motor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 10557 Ground Distribution Power and Ground Distribution Diagrams contains the diagrams that shows 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 component are shown. These ground connection details are shown here in order to keep the individual set of diagrams as uncluttered as possible. C904 Component and Connector Information 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. The wiring harness designations are listed in set Component Location Charts. Component Location Views shows the components and their connecting wires as they can be found on the vehicle. Location information that can be found at the vehicle level will helps the user find where the various items depicted on the diagram can physically be found on the vehicle. A brief written description of the location is given, along with a reference to the component location 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.

Recommended splicing method - Solder (For 16 AWG and Smaller Diameter Wire Only) 1. Disconnect battery ground cable. 2. Strip wires to appropriate length. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Wiper and Washer Systems > Wiper Motor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 10567 3. Install heat shrink tubing. 4. Twist wires together. 5. Solder wires together. NOTE: Use rosin core mildly-activated (RMA) solder. Do not use acid core solder. - Use heat shrinkable tubes marked with ES-1 (16-22 GA) or ES-2 (10-18 GA) to seal wire splice. 6. Bend wire 1 back in a straight line. NOTE: Wait for solder to cool before moving wires. 7. Evenly position heat shrink tubing over wire repair. NOTE: Overlap tubing on both wires. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Wiper and Washer Systems > Wiper Motor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 10568 8. Use shielded heat gun to heat the repaired area until adhesive flows out of both ends of heat shrink tubing. 9. Reconnect battery ground cable. Recommended splicing method - Crimp (For 10-22 AWG Diameter Wire to Like Wire Diameter) 1. Disconnect battery ground cable. 2. Strip 1/4" (6.35mm) of insulation from each wire end, taking care not to nick or cut wire strands. 3. Install heat shrink tubing. NOTE: Use heat shrinkable tubes marked with ES-1 (16-22 GA) or ES-2 (10-18 GA) to seal wire splice. 4. Select appropriate wire splice for the wires to be spliced. 5. Identify the appropriate crimping chamber on the Rotunda 164-R5901 Pro-Crimper by matching the wire size on the dies with the wire size stamped on the butt splice. NOTE: Rotunda 164-R5901 Pro-Crimper is the only tool that can be used with these splices. Ford Explorer 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN K (2007)) Ford Workshop Manuals > Wiper and Washer Systems > Wiper Motor > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 10569 6. Center one end of the wire splice in the appropriate crimping chamber. 7. If visible, be sure to place the brazed seam toward the indenter. 8. Insert stripped wire into the barrel. 9. Holding the wire in place, squeeze tool handles until ratchet releases. 10. Repeating steps 5-7, crimp the other half of the splice. 11. Check for acceptable crimp. a. Crimp should be centered on each end of the butt splice. b. Wire insulation does not enter butt splice. c. Wire is visible through inspection hole of splices. 12. Evenly position supplied heat shrink tubing over wire repair. 13. Use shielded heat gun to heat the repaired area until adhesive flows out of both ends of the heat shrink tubing. 14. Reconnect battery ground cable.
