Multifunction Electronic Control Modules: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Multifunction Electronic Control Modules <--> [General Module] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 677
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Ford Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Accessories and Optional Equipment >

Information and Instructions > Page 679
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Accessories and Optional Equipment >
Multifunction Electronic Control Modules <--> [General Module] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 680
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Multifunction Electronic Control Modules: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Compressor Clutch Relay: Description and Operation
Wide Open Throttle A/C Cut-Off
The wide open throttle A/C cutoff relay (may be referred to as the A/C clutch relay) is normally
open. There is no direct electrical connection between the A/C switch or EATC Module and the A/C
clutch. The PCM will receive a signal indicating that A/C is requested (for some applications, this
message is sent through the BUS + and BUS - circuits). When A/C is requested, the PCM will
check other A/C related inputs that are available (such as ACP (SW), A/C Cycling Switch (ACCS)).
If these inputs indicate A/C operation is OK, and the engine conditions are OK (such as coolant
temperature, engine rpm, throttle position), the PCM will ground the Wide Open Throttle A/C
(WAC) output, closing the relay contacts and sending voltage to the A/C clutch.

ISSUE
Some vehicles may exhibit an inoperative or inaccurate speedometer, 4x4 lamp illuminated, and/or
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTCs) P1635 or P1639 present after a Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) or Instrument Cluster replacement. This may be caused by the Vehicle Identification (VID)
block that must be programmed when replacing the PCM.
ACTION
As part of the calibration, there is an area referred to as the Vehicle Identification (VID) block. The
VID block must be programmed when replacing the PCM. Failure to perform the proper
Programmable Module Installation procedure may generate fault code: P1639 VID Block not
programmed or is corrupt--P1635 Tire/Axle Out Of Acceptable Range. Refer to the following
procedures to ensure the PCM is properly configured.

ISSUE
Some vehicles may exhibit an inoperative or inaccurate speedometer, 4x4 lamp illuminated, and/or
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTCs) P1635 or P1639 present after a Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) or Instrument Cluster replacement. This may be caused by the Vehicle Identification (VID)
block that must be programmed when replacing the PCM.
ACTION
As part of the calibration, there is an area referred to as the Vehicle Identification (VID) block. The
VID block must be programmed when replacing the PCM. Failure to perform the proper
Programmable Module Installation procedure may generate fault code: P1639 VID Block not
programmed or is corrupt--P1635 Tire/Axle Out Of Acceptable Range. Refer to the following
procedures to ensure the PCM is properly configured.

ISSUE
Some vehicles may exhibit an inoperative or inaccurate speedometer, 4x4 lamp illuminated, and/or
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTCs) P1635 or P1639 present after a Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) or Instrument Cluster replacement. This may be caused by the Vehicle Identification (VID)
block that must be programmed when replacing the PCM.
ACTION
As part of the calibration, there is an area referred to as the Vehicle Identification (VID) block. The
VID block must be programmed when replacing the PCM. Failure to perform the proper
Programmable Module Installation procedure may generate fault code: P1639 VID Block not
programmed or is corrupt--P1635 Tire/Axle Out Of Acceptable Range. Refer to the following
procedures to ensure the PCM is properly configured.

Service Procedure
NGS Procedure "A" will prevent P1639/P1635 from setting. In the event either code is set, use one
of the following NGS Procedures "B" or "C" or WDS Procedure "D" to ensure the PCM is properly
configured.
NOTE
THE FOLLOWING NGS PROCEDURES MUST BE PERFORMED USING THE NGS FLASH
CABLE.
Procedure A - NGS PREFERRED Method To Prevent P1635/P1639
1. With the original PCM installed and using the NGS service card, select "Programmable Module
Installation".
2. Select PCM from the module list.
3. Select "Retrieve Module Config-Old ECU".
4. After the Module data has been stored, install the new PCM, press CANCEL to return to the
menu and select "Restore Module Config-New ECU".
This procedure will retrieve the VID data from the original PCM and store it into the new PCM. If the
original PCM will not communicate, install the new PCM and start the procedure over at Step 1. If
the new PCM VID is blank, the NGS will direct you to contact the As-Built Data center during Step
a above. Obtain As-Built Data from the Professional Technician Society (PTS) website and
manually enter the PCM data from the As-Built Data sheet as the NGS asks for it. After the data
has been entered, continue to Step 4 above.
Procedure B - NGS Alternative Method
1. Using NGS service card, select "Service Bay Functions".
2. Select PCM from the module list.
3. Select "Module Configuration".
4. Select "94-02 EECV & PTEC-By TSB".
5. Cycle ignition as directed by NGS.
6. Once the PCM initializes and the warning screen is displayed, Tire size/Axle, etc. can then be
updated.
Procedure C - If the VID block is not correctly programmed - but has some data stored in it, the
NGS Service Function Card may not be able to configure the PCM due to the need to reprogram
the module
1. Create an NGS Flash Card with the correct calibration (Tear Tag).
2. Start the reprogramming process. (you will be notified that the vehicle already has the latest
calibration).
3. Select CANCEL - you will be given the opportunity to update PCM parameters (Vehicle ID block
data).
4. Update the Vehicle ID block data and, it necessary, the NGS will continue to reflash the module.
Procedure D - WDS Procedure if proper Programmable Module Installation was not performed and
P1639/P1635 is set
Using WDS with B11 or later software and ignition in OFF position:
1. Connect WDS DLC cable to vehicle OBD II connector (lower center of dash).
2. Select "16 PIN", select "All others, except those below", press TICK.
3. Screen shows installation of cable, press TICK.

This article supersedes TSB 07-7-8 to update the vehicle application.
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.

DTCs that use fault PIDs do not identify the specific concern. 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 Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
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
1017
^ 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.

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

ISSUE 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.

DTCs that use fault PIDs do not identify the specific concern. 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 Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
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
1044
^ 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.

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

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

SCDS Identification
The Speed Control Deactivation Switch (SCDS) involved in Recall 05S28 and the revised SCDS is
illustrated below. See Figure 1.
Note that the revised SCDS has a different electrical connector. A jumper adapter (which is
included in the parts kit) is required when replacing the old SCDS with the revised SCDS.
SCDS Location
In most late model year vehicles involved in this recall, the SCDS is located on the master cylinder.
In early model year vehicles (1992-1998), the SCDS may be located on the master cylinder but is
often found on a brake line distribution block or on the brake proportioning valve. If in doubt, just
follow the metal brake lines from the master cylinder until the switch is found.
^ On early model year E-Series vehicles, the SCDS is located on the left frame rail.
^ On E-450 models only, remove the 3 screws and position the coolant degas bottle forward to
allow access to the SCDS and servo.
^ On F-53 vehicles, if the SCDS is not located on the master cylinder, it may be located in a brake
line junction block approximately 457 mm (18 in) below the master cylinder. It may be necessary to
reposition wiring harnesses and/or remove add-on equipment in order to locate the switch.
^ On 1993 MARK VIII vehicles, the steering wheel intermediate shaft needs to be disconnected
from the inside of the vehicle and the outside of the vehicle, and then positioned upwards to gain
access to the SCDS.
- When the intermediate steering shaft is disconnected, the steering wheel must be in the LOCK
position to prevent damage to the clockspring.
- During installation of the intermediate steering shaft, new bolts must be installed. Tighten the bolts
to 49 Nm (36 lb-ft).
^ On 1994-1998 MARK VIII vehicles, the SCDS is located underneath the right front fender splash
shield in front of the right front wheel. It is not necessary to remove the right front wheel to access
the SCDS. Turn the wheel all the way right and position the front of the fender splash shield aside.
^ On all Mark VIII vehicles (except 1993), the speed control servo is located underneath the left
front fender splash shield in front of the left front wheel.

Disconnect the SCDS and inspect the harness connector (See Figure 3) for the presence of brake
fluid.
^ All vehicles except 1993 Mark VIII: If there is no evidence of brake fluid on the connector, install a
Fused Jumper Harness.
- On 1993 Mark VIII vehicles with no evidence of brake fluid on the SCDS harness connector,
replace the Speed Control Deactivation Switch but do not inspect or apply electrical grease to the
speed control servo connector.
^ If there is evidence of brake fluid on the connector, replace the Speed Control Deactivation
Switch, inspect and apply electrical grease to the appropriate connectors.
FUSED JUMPER HARNESS (FJH) INSTALLATION
1. Connect the fused jumper harness to the SCDS and the vehicle harness.
2. Secure the jumper harness to the existing harness with tie straps, making sure the fuse holders
are positioned vertically with the cap facing upward. Wrap the tie straps underneath, then over the
top of the existing harness and verify proper fuse holder orientation. See Figure 4.
SPEED CONTROL DEACTIVATION SWITCH (SCDS) REPLACEMENT
NOTE:
The brake pedal must not be depressed during the removal and replacement of the SCDS.
1. Check the brake fluid level at the master cylinder and, if necessary, fill to maximum fluid level.
NOTICE:
DO NOT apply fluid to the electrical connector or damage to the connector may occur.
NOTICE:
The 1994 Capri Brake Repair Kit contains a brass sealing washer. Install the brass washer onto the
SCDS before installing it on the vehicle.

2. Add a few drops of Motorcraft High Performance DOT 3 Motor Vehicle Brake Fluid, PM1-1 or
PM-1-C (US), CPM-1-C (Canada), to the fluid port at the threaded end of the new SCDS. See
Figure 5.
NOTICE:
Do not allow any foreign material to enter the master cylinder port once the SCDS is removed.
NOTE:
Call the Special Service Support Center for assistance if brake fluid does not flow from the SCDS
fitting when the SCDS is removed.
NOTE:
If the new SCDS is not installed immediately after the original switch is removed, the master
cylinder brake fluid could drop below the minimum level and air could enter the brake system. If this
should occur, air must be bled from the brake system at all 4 wheels. In this situation, the labor to
bleed the brake system will not be covered under this program.
3. Remove the SCDS.
4. With the brake fluid reservoir cap removed, observe for brake fluid dripping/draining from the
SCDS fitting. As soon as brake fluid begins to bleed from the fitting, install the new SCDS.
5. Tighten the new SCDS as follows:
^ 18 Nm (159 lb-in) - all vehicles except 1994 Capri.
^ 13 Nm (115 lb-in) - 1994 Capri.
6. Check the brake fluid level at the master cylinder, fill to maximum fluid level and install the brake
fluid reservoir cap.
7. Disconnect the speed control servo and inspect the vehicle harness connector for heat damage.
See Figure 6.
^ If no heat damage is found at the speed control servo connector (even if there is presence of
brake fluid in the connector), proceed to the next step.
^ If the speed control servo connector is heat damaged, call the Special Service Support Center for
further instructions.
8. With the speed control servo disconnected, use shop air only to blow the SCDS harness
electrical connector and the servo connector dry of any trace of brake fluid. Do not use any type of
solvent to clean the connectors.

SCDS Identification
The Speed Control Deactivation Switch (SCDS) involved in Recall 05S28 and the revised SCDS is
illustrated below. See Figure 1.
Note that the revised SCDS has a different electrical connector. A jumper adapter (which is
included in the parts kit) is required when replacing the old SCDS with the revised SCDS.
SCDS Location
In most late model year vehicles involved in this recall, the SCDS is located on the master cylinder.
In early model year vehicles (1992-1998), the SCDS may be located on the master cylinder but is
often found on a brake line distribution block or on the brake proportioning valve. If in doubt, just
follow the metal brake lines from the master cylinder until the switch is found.
^ On early model year E-Series vehicles, the SCDS is located on the left frame rail.
^ On E-450 models only, remove the 3 screws and position the coolant degas bottle forward to
allow access to the SCDS and servo.
^ On F-53 vehicles, if the SCDS is not located on the master cylinder, it may be located in a brake
line junction block approximately 457 mm (18 in) below the master cylinder. It may be necessary to
reposition wiring harnesses and/or remove add-on equipment in order to locate the switch.
^ On 1993 MARK VIII vehicles, the steering wheel intermediate shaft needs to be disconnected
from the inside of the vehicle and the outside of the vehicle, and then positioned upwards to gain
access to the SCDS.
- When the intermediate steering shaft is disconnected, the steering wheel must be in the LOCK
position to prevent damage to the clockspring.
- During installation of the intermediate steering shaft, new bolts must be installed. Tighten the bolts
to 49 Nm (36 lb-ft).
^ On 1994-1998 MARK VIII vehicles, the SCDS is located underneath the right front fender splash
shield in front of the right front wheel. It is not necessary to remove the right front wheel to access
the SCDS. Turn the wheel all the way right and position the front of the fender splash shield aside.
^ On all Mark VIII vehicles (except 1993), the speed control servo is located underneath the left
front fender splash shield in front of the left front wheel.

05S28S15 > Apr > 08 > Recall - Cruise Control Deactivation Switch Inspection > Page 1257
Disconnect the SCDS and inspect the harness connector (See Figure 3) for the presence of brake
fluid.
^ All vehicles except 1993 Mark VIII: If there is no evidence of brake fluid on the connector, install a
Fused Jumper Harness.
- On 1993 Mark VIII vehicles with no evidence of brake fluid on the SCDS harness connector,
replace the Speed Control Deactivation Switch but do not inspect or apply electrical grease to the
speed control servo connector.
^ If there is evidence of brake fluid on the connector, replace the Speed Control Deactivation
Switch, inspect and apply electrical grease to the appropriate connectors.
FUSED JUMPER HARNESS (FJH) INSTALLATION
1. Connect the fused jumper harness to the SCDS and the vehicle harness.
2. Secure the jumper harness to the existing harness with tie straps, making sure the fuse holders
are positioned vertically with the cap facing upward. Wrap the tie straps underneath, then over the
top of the existing harness and verify proper fuse holder orientation. See Figure 4.
SPEED CONTROL DEACTIVATION SWITCH (SCDS) REPLACEMENT
NOTE:
The brake pedal must not be depressed during the removal and replacement of the SCDS.
1. Check the brake fluid level at the master cylinder and, if necessary, fill to maximum fluid level.
NOTICE:
DO NOT apply fluid to the electrical connector or damage to the connector may occur.
NOTICE:
The 1994 Capri Brake Repair Kit contains a brass sealing washer. Install the brass washer onto the
SCDS before installing it on the vehicle.

> Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > All Technical Service Bulletins for Brake Switch (Cruise Control): >
05S28S15 > Apr > 08 > Recall - Cruise Control Deactivation Switch Inspection > Page 1258
2. Add a few drops of Motorcraft High Performance DOT 3 Motor Vehicle Brake Fluid, PM1-1 or
PM-1-C (US), CPM-1-C (Canada), to the fluid port at the threaded end of the new SCDS. See
Figure 5.
NOTICE:
Do not allow any foreign material to enter the master cylinder port once the SCDS is removed.
NOTE:
Call the Special Service Support Center for assistance if brake fluid does not flow from the SCDS
fitting when the SCDS is removed.
NOTE:
If the new SCDS is not installed immediately after the original switch is removed, the master
cylinder brake fluid could drop below the minimum level and air could enter the brake system. If this
should occur, air must be bled from the brake system at all 4 wheels. In this situation, the labor to
bleed the brake system will not be covered under this program.
3. Remove the SCDS.
4. With the brake fluid reservoir cap removed, observe for brake fluid dripping/draining from the
SCDS fitting. As soon as brake fluid begins to bleed from the fitting, install the new SCDS.
5. Tighten the new SCDS as follows:
^ 18 Nm (159 lb-in) - all vehicles except 1994 Capri.
^ 13 Nm (115 lb-in) - 1994 Capri.
6. Check the brake fluid level at the master cylinder, fill to maximum fluid level and install the brake
fluid reservoir cap.
7. Disconnect the speed control servo and inspect the vehicle harness connector for heat damage.
See Figure 6.
^ If no heat damage is found at the speed control servo connector (even if there is presence of
brake fluid in the connector), proceed to the next step.
^ If the speed control servo connector is heat damaged, call the Special Service Support Center for
further instructions.
8. With the speed control servo disconnected, use shop air only to blow the SCDS harness
electrical connector and the servo connector dry of any trace of brake fluid. Do not use any type of
solvent to clean the connectors.

9. Cut approximately 3 mm (1/8 in) off the grease tube applicator tip.
10. Before installing the jumper harness, fill the vehicle harness end of the jumper (male pin
connector end) with Motorcraft Electrical Grease II XG-15-A. See Figure 7.
11. Install the adapter jumper harness by connecting it to both the SCDS and the vehicle harness.
Using the provided tie strap, secure the jumper harness to a nearby component such as the speed
control cable or another wire harness.
NOTICE:
Be sure to apply and adequate amount of grease to the vehicle harness connector only. DO NOT
apply the grease directly to the connector of the servo module.
12. Apply a 5 mm (3/16 in) high bead of Motorcraft Electrical Grease II XG-15-A across the entire
width and length of the servo vehicle harness connector. See Figure 8.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The crankshaft position (CKP) sensor (Figure 54) is a magnetic transducer mounted on the engine

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

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

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

Engine Oil Temperature
Engine Oil Temperature (EOT) Sensor
The Engine Oil Temperature (EOT) sensor (Figure 29) is a thermistor device in which resistance
changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature
increases and increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects the voltage
drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to
temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a

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

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.

the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Sensors and Switches > Sensors and Switches - Powertrain Management > Sensors and
Switches - Computers and Control Systems > Heated Oxygen Sensor <--> [Oxygen Sensor] > Component Information >
Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 1469
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Heated Oxygen Sensor: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Switches - A/T > Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 1758
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Information and Instructions > Page 1760
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
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 1761
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation
Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor
The transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor is a thermistor-type sensor that varies a reference
voltage signal. The resistance in the TFT varies with temperature. The powertrain control module
(PCM) monitors the voltage signal across the TFT, and uses this information to determine the
transmission fluid temperature.
The TFT is located on the main control body wiring harness assembly.
The PCM uses the TFT signal to help determine shift scheduling, torque converter clutch operation
and electronic pressure control (EPC).

REVISED PROCEDURE FOR ADJUSTING ALIGNMENT ON ALL SUSPENSIONS - NEW RIGHT
HAND UPPER CONTROL ARM DESIGN FOR TORSION BAR FRONT SUSPENSIONS
FORD: 1998-2001 Explorer 1998-2003 Ranger 2000-2003 Explorer Sport 2001-2003 Explorer
Sport Trac
ISSUE The cam bolt and nut kit that was used for adjusting caster and camber on all torsion bar
and coil spring front suspensions has been discontinued. If the caster and camber settings need to
be adjusted, a washer must now be installed.
The right hand upper control arm design changed from a two piece design to a single piece design
during the 2003 model year. The single piece design is now the only version of the upper control
arm available for service of prior model year Rangers.
ACTION Use the following Camber And Caster Adjustment procedure when either camber or
caster need to be adjusted on any suspension, or if only a caster split adjustment is needed on a
vehicle equipped with single piece upper control arm.
Use the following Caster Split Adjustment - Two Piece Right Hand Upper Control Arm procedure if
only a caster split adjustment is needed on a vehicle equipped with a two piece upper control arm.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
CAMBER AND CASTER ADJUSTMENT
NOTE
THE UPPER CONTROL ARM-TO-FRAME MOUNTING BOLTS HAVE SET SHIMS THAT MUST
BE REPLACED WITH WASHERS TO ALLOW FOR ADJUSTMENT OF THE ARM IN THE FRAME
SLOT. THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE SUPPORTED BY THE LOWER CONTROL ARM TO EASE
MOVEMENT OF THE UPPER ARM IN THE SLOT.
1. Remove and discard the upper control arm-to-frame nuts and shims (Figure 1).
2. Install new washers (W705040-5900) and nuts (N805480-5427). Tighten the nuts so there is
tension, but the upper control arm can be moved for the alignment adjustment.

Alignment: Description and Operation
Wheel Alignment Angles
Caster and camber are adjusted by means of eccentric cams on the upper control arm mounting
bolts. Toe is adjusted by the use of the front wheel spindle tie-rod.
Camber
Negative and Positive 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 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.
Toe

Wheel Track
Wheel Track
Dogtracking
Dogtracking
Dogtracking is the condition in which the rear axle is not square to the chassis. Heavily crowned
roads can give the illusion of dogtracking.
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)
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Alignment > System Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Page 1835
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.
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 (i.e., wind, road camber).
Poor Groove Feel
Poor groove feel is characterized by little or no buildup of turning effort felt in the steering wheel as
the wheel is rocked slowly left and right within very small turns around center or straight-ahead
(under 20 degrees of steering wheel turn). Efforts may be said to be "flat on center." ^
Under 20 degrees of turn, most of the turning effort that builds up comes from the mesh of gear
teeth in the steering gear. In this range, the steering wheel is not yet turned enough to feel the
effort from the self-aligning forces at the road wheel or tire patch.
^ In the diagnosis of a readability problem, it is important to understand the difference between
wander and poor groove feel.

Compression Check: Testing and Inspection
Compression Test-Compression Gauge Check
1. Make sure the oil in the crankcase is of the correct viscosity and at the correct level and that the
battery is correctly charged. Operate the vehicle
until the engine is at normal operating temperature. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position,
then remove all the spark plugs.
2. Set the throttle plates in the wide-open position. 3. Install a compression gauge such as the
Compression Tester in the No. 1 cylinder. 4. Install an auxiliary starter switch in the starting circuit.
With the ignition switch in the OFF position, and using the auxiliary starter switch, crank
the engine a minimum of five compression strokes and record the highest reading. Note the
approximate number of compression strokes required to obtain the highest reading.
5. Repeat the test on each cylinder, cranking the engine approximately the same number of
compression strokes.
Compression Test-Test Results
The indicated compression pressures are considered within specification if the lowest reading
cylinder is within 75 percent of the highest reading. Refer to the Compression Pressure Limit Chart.
Compression Pressure Limit Chart
If one or more cylinders reads low, squirt approximately one tablespoon of engine oil on top of the
pistons in the low-reading cylinders. Repeat the compression pressure check on these cylinders.
Compression Test-Interpreting Compression Readings
1. If compression improves considerably, piston rings are faulty. 2. If compression does not
improve, valves are sticking or seating incorrectly. 3. If two adjacent cylinders indicate low
compression pressures and squirting oil on each piston does not increase compression, the head
gasket may
be leaking between cylinders. Engine oil or coolant in cylinders could result from this condition.

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

Customer Interest for Heater Hose: > 06-21-19 > Oct > 06 > A/C - Heater Core Electrolysis/Leakage > Page 1981
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.

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

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

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

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

Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Fluids > Coolant > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins >
Cooling System - Premium Gold Coolant Service Info > Page 2022
Ford Motor Company does not recommend nor endorse the use of engine coolants made with
propylene glycol in Ford vehicles. Ford Motor Company currently recommends the use of ethylene
glycol-based engine coolants.
Published information suggests that engine coolants made with propylene glycol may provide
engine cooling performance equivalent to engine coolants made with ethylene glycol. However,
different brands of engine coolant provide varying corrosion protection for the cooling system. Ford
does not have performance data for the multitude of engine coolants available in the aftermarket
and therefore cannot recommend the use of any coolant except those sold by Ford Customer
Service Division. Consult the vehicle's Owner's Guide to determine the appropriate Ford Customer
Service Division coolant for the vehicle.
Furthermore, claims of toxicological and environmental advantages of propylene glycol over
ethylene glycol may be misleading. When significant new information is developed, Ford will review
this policy.
Ford Motor Company specifications recommend that vehicles be maintained using certain ethylene
glycol-based engine coolants. Those specifications do not refer to engine coolants made with
propylene glycol. Although the Ford New Vehicle Limited Warranty is not automatically voided upon
the use of a coolant made with propylene glycol, if such use results in damage to the vehicle or its
components, the cost of repairing the damage would not be covered by the Ford New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.

Check Fluid Level and Condition
CAUTION: The vehicle should not be driven if the fluid level indicator shows the fluid below the Do
Not Drive mark or internal failure could result.
NOTE: Automatic transmission fluid expands when warmed. To obtain an accurate fluid level
check, drive the vehicle until warmed, approximately 30 km (18.75 miles). If the vehicle has been
operated for an extended period at high speeds, in city traffic, during hot weather or while pulling a
trailer. the vehicle should be turned off for about 30 minutes to allow the fluid to cool before
checking.
NOTE: The transmission fluid level should be checked at normal operating temperatures, 66 - 77
°C (150 - 170 °F), on a level surface. The normal operating temperature can be reached after
approximately 32 km (20 miles) of driving. However, you can check the fluid level without driving if
the outside temperature is above 10 °C (50 °F). When the vehicle has not been driven, and the
outside is above 10 °C (50 °F), the fluid level should be between the holes on the indicator. If the
transmission fluid is to be checked when the fluid is at room temperature, the fluid level indicator
could indicate that fluid should be added if the indicator is misread. If fluid is added at this time, an
overfill condition could result when the vehicle reaches operating temperature of 66 - 77 °C (150 170 °F).
1. Drive the vehicle 30 km (18.75 miles) or until the vehicle reaches normal operating
temperatures. 2. Park the vehicle on a level surface and apply the parking brake. 3. With the
parking brake applied and your foot on the brake pedal, start the engine and move the range
selector lever through all the gear ranges.
Allow sufficient time for each gear to engage.
4. Place the range selector lever in (P) park and leave the engine running. 5. Remove the fluid level
indicator and wipe it clean with a lint free cloth. 6. Install the fluid level indicator until it is fully
seated into the filler tube.
7. Remove the fluid level indicator and inspect the fluid level. The fluid level should be in the
designated area for normal and room temperature.
High Fluid Level
Fluid levels above the safe range may result in transmission failure. An overfill condition of
transmission fluid may cause shift or engagement concerns and possible damage. High fluid levels
can be caused by an overheating condition. A fluid level that is too high may cause the fluid to
become aerated due to the churning action of the rotating internal parts. This will cause erratic
control pressure, foaming, loss of fluid from the vent tube and possible transmission malfunction
and/or damage. If an overfill reading is indicated drain and refill the transmission.
Low Fluid Level
DO NOT DRIVE the vehicle if the fluid level is below the hole at the bottom of the fluid level
indicator or not on the fluid level indicator, and the outside temperatures are above 10 °C (50 °F). A
low fluid level could result in poor transmission engagement, slipping, malfunction and/or damage.
This could also indicate a leak in one of the transmission seals or gaskets.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Fluids > Fluid - A/T > Component Information > Service and Repair > A/T Fluid
Level Check and Condition > Page 2050
Adding Fluid
CAUTION: The use of any other type of transmission fluid than specified could result in
transmission malfunction and/or damage. An overfill condition of transmission fluid may cause shift
or engagement concerns and possible damage.
Before adding fluid be sure that the correct type is being used. If fluid needs to be added, add fluid
in 0.25 L (1/2 pint) increments through the filler tube. Do not overfill the fluid.
Fluid Condition Check
1. Check the fluid level. 2. Observe the color and the odor. The color under normal circumstances
should be dark reddish, not brown or black. 3. Hold the fluid level indicator over a white facial tissue
and allow the fluid to drip onto the facial tissue and examine the stain. 4. If evidence of solid
material is found, the transmission fluid pan should be removed for further inspection. 5. If the stain
is a foamy pink color, this may indicate coolant in the transmission. The engine cooling system
should also be inspected at this time. 6. If fluid contamination or transmission failure is confirmed
by the sediment in the bottom of the transmission fluid pan, the transmission must be
disassembled and completely cleaned. This includes the torque converter and cooler lines.
7. Carry out diagnostic checks and adjustments.

Fluid - A/T: Service and Repair Check Fluid Level and Condition
Check Fluid Level and Condition
CAUTION: The vehicle should not be driven if the fluid level indicator shows the fluid below the Do
Not Drive mark or internal failure could result.
NOTE: Automatic transmission fluid expands when warmed. To obtain an accurate fluid level
check, drive the vehicle until warmed, approximately 30 km (18.75 miles). If the vehicle has been
operated for an extended period at high speeds, in city traffic, during hot weather or while pulling a
trailer. the vehicle should be turned off for about 30 minutes to allow the fluid to cool before
checking.
NOTE: The transmission fluid level should be checked at normal operating temperatures, 66 - 77
°C (150 - 170 °F), on a level surface. The normal operating temperature can be reached after
approximately 32 km (20 miles) of driving. However, you can check the fluid level without driving if
the outside temperature is above 10 °C (50 °F). When the vehicle has not been driven, and the
outside is above 10 °C (50 °F), the fluid level should be between the holes on the indicator. If the
transmission fluid is to be checked when the fluid is at room temperature, the fluid level indicator
could indicate that fluid should be added if the indicator is misread. If fluid is added at this time, an
overfill condition could result when the vehicle reaches operating temperature of 66 - 77 °C (150 170 °F).
1. Drive the vehicle 30 km (18.75 miles) or until the vehicle reaches normal operating
temperatures. 2. Park the vehicle on a level surface and apply the parking brake. 3. With the
parking brake applied and your foot on the brake pedal, start the engine and move the range
selector lever through all the gear ranges.
Allow sufficient time for each gear to engage.
4. Place the range selector lever in (P) park and leave the engine running. 5. Remove the fluid level
indicator and wipe it clean with a lint free cloth. 6. Install the fluid level indicator until it is fully
seated into the filler tube.
7. Remove the fluid level indicator and inspect the fluid level. The fluid level should be in the
designated area for normal and room temperature.
High Fluid Level
Fluid levels above the safe range may result in transmission failure. An overfill condition of
transmission fluid may cause shift or engagement concerns and possible damage. High fluid levels
can be caused by an overheating condition. A fluid level that is too high may cause the fluid to
become aerated due to the churning action of the rotating internal parts. This will cause erratic
control pressure, foaming, loss of fluid from the vent tube and possible transmission malfunction
and/or damage. If an overfill reading is indicated drain and refill the transmission.
Low Fluid Level
DO NOT DRIVE the vehicle if the fluid level is below the hole at the bottom of the fluid level
indicator or not on the fluid level indicator, and the outside temperatures are above 10 °C (50 °F). A
low fluid level could result in poor transmission engagement, slipping, malfunction and/or damage.
This could also indicate a leak in one of the transmission seals or gaskets.
Adding Fluid

Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Fluids > Fluid - A/T > Component Information > Service and Repair > A/T Fluid
Level Check and Condition > Page 2067
CAUTION: The use of any other type of transmission fluid than specified could result in
transmission malfunction and/or damage. An overfill condition of transmission fluid may cause shift
or engagement concerns and possible damage.
Before adding fluid be sure that the correct type is being used. If fluid needs to be added, add fluid
in 0.25 L (1/2 pint) increments through the filler tube. Do not overfill the fluid.
Fluid Condition Check
1. Check the fluid level. 2. Observe the color and the odor. The color under normal circumstances
should be dark reddish, not brown or black. 3. Hold the fluid level indicator over a white facial tissue
and allow the fluid to drip onto the facial tissue and examine the stain. 4. If evidence of solid
material is found, the transmission fluid pan should be removed for further inspection. 5. If the stain
is a foamy pink color, this may indicate coolant in the transmission. The engine cooling system
should also be inspected at this time. 6. If fluid contamination or transmission failure is confirmed
by the sediment in the bottom of the transmission fluid pan, the transmission must be
disassembled and completely cleaned. This includes the torque converter and cooler lines.
7. Carry out diagnostic checks and adjustments.

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

Refrigerant: Vehicle Damage Warnings
CAUTION:
- Good ventilation is necessary in the area where electronic A/C leak testing is to be carried out. If
the surrounding air is contaminated with refrigerant gas, the leak detector will indicate this gas all
the time. Odors from other chemicals such as anti-freeze, diesel fuel, disc brake cleaner, or other
cleaning solvents can cause the same problem. A fan, even in a well-ventilated area, is very helpful
in removing small traces of contamination from the air that might affect the leak detector.
- If contaminated refrigerant is detected, DO NOT recover the refrigerant into R-134a or R-12
recovery/recycling equipment.

Special Tool(s)
SPECIAL TOOL(S)
Refrigerant System Recovery
NOTE: Ford Motor Company recommends use of an A/C service center to carry out recovery,
evacuation, and charging of the refrigerant system. If an A/C service center is not available,
refrigerant system recovery, evacuation, and charging may be accomplished using a separate
recovery station, vacuum pump, charging cylinder, and manifold gauge set.
1. Prior to recovering the refrigerant system, you must verify the purity of the refrigerant. 2. Connect
an R-134a A/C service center to the low- and high-pressure service gauge port valves.
NOTE: Some R-134a service centers require the use of an A/C manifold gauge set.
3. Recover the refrigerant from the system following the operating instructions provided by the
equipment manufacturer. 4. Once the service center has recovered the vehicle A/C system
refrigerant, close the service center inlet valve (if equipped). Then switch off the
power supply.
5. Allow the vehicle A/C system to remain closed for about two minutes. Observe the system
vacuum level as shown on the gauge. If the vacuum
does not decrease, disconnect the refrigerant center hose(s).
6. If the system vacuum does decrease, repeat Steps 2 through 5 until the vacuum level remains
stable for two minutes. 7. Carry out the required repairs.

Refrigerant: Service and Repair Identifying Refrigerants
Delux A/C Refrigerant Analyzer
SPECIAL TOOL(S)
1. Follow the instructions included with the Deluxe Refrigerant Diagnostic Tool to obtain the sample
for testing.
NOTE: An A/C refrigerant analyzer must be used to identify gas samples taken directly from the
refrigeration system or storage containers prior to recovering or charging the refrigerant system.
2. The diagnostic tool will display one of the following:
- If the purity level of R-134a or R-12 is 98% or greater by weight, the green "PASS" Light Emitting
Diode (LED) will light. The weight concentrations of R-134a, R-12, R-22, hydrocarbons, and air will
be displayed on the digital display.
- If refrigerants R-134a or R-12 do not meet the 98% purity levels, the red "FAIL" LED will light and
a horn will sound alerting the user of potential hazards. The weight concentrations of R-134a, R-12,
R-22, and hydrocarbons will be displayed on the digital display.
- If hydrocarbon concentrations are 2% or greater by weight, the red "FAIL" LED will light,
"Hydrocarbon High" will be displayed on the digital display, and a horn will sound alerting the user
of potential hazards. The weight concentrations of R-134a, R-12, R-22, and hydrocarbons will also
be displayed on the digital display.
3. The percentage of air contained in the sample will be displayed if the R-134a or R-12 content is
98% or greater. The diagnostic tool eliminates the
effect of air when determining the refrigerant sample content because air is not considered a
contaminant, although air can affect A/C system performance. When the diagnostic tool has
determined that a refrigerant source is pure (R-134a or R-12 is 98% or greater by weight) and air
concentration levels are 2% or greater by weight, the diagnostic tool will prompt the user if an air
purge is desired.
4. If contaminated refrigerant is detected, repeat the refrigerant identification test to verify that the
refrigerant is indeed contaminated. 5. Recover any contaminated refrigerant using suitable
recovery-only equipment designed for capturing and storing contaminated refrigerant.
CAUTION: If contaminated refrigerant is detected, DO NOT recover the refrigerant into R-134a or
R-12 recovery/recycling equipment.

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

Diagram Information and Instructions
Fuse: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Fuses and Circuit Breakers > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams >
Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2189
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Fuses and Circuit Breakers > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams >
Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2190
Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Fuses and Circuit Breakers > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams >
Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2191
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Fuses and Circuit Breakers > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams >
Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2192
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Fuse: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Fuse Block: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Fuses and Circuit Breakers > Fuse Block > Component Information > Diagrams
> Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2254
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Fuses and Circuit Breakers > Fuse Block > Component Information > Diagrams
> Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2256
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Maintenance > Fuses and Circuit Breakers > Fuse Block > Component Information > Diagrams
> Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 2257
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

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

Attachment I - Administrative Information
OASIS
OASIS must be used to determine vehicle eligibility.
IMPORTANT:
When an eligible vehicle is at the dealership for service, OASIS must be contacted to determine if
Owner Notification Program 01B77 is open. If 01B77 is listed in OASIS as open, it is important that
the vehicle is inspected for eligible tires. If the eligible vehicle is not equipped with 15-, 16-, or
17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT tires a claim must be submitted using labor operation 01B77A to
close the program. If an affected vehicle does not have 01B77 open, this may indicate that a refund
or tire replacement has already been processed on this vehicle.
Some Ford and Lincoln Mercury vehicles not listed in the AFFECTED TIRES AND VEHICLES list
may have 15-, 16-, or 17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT tires installed. These vehicles are covered
under this program, but will not be active in OASIS. Contact the Special Service Support Center at
1-800-325-5621 to obtain prior approval before performing the repair or issuing a refund. This will
insure that a previous repair/refund has not been performed on the vehicle.
CLAIMS PREPARATION AND SUBMISSION
^ Enter claims using DWE.
^ Refer to ACESII User Manual for claims preparation and submission information.
^ Enter information on a Recall/ONP claim type. DO NOT use a Warranty Claim type.
^ Program code 01B77.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))

^ Enter the full part number of the replacement tire with the quantity of tires replaced. Tires will be
reimbursed at AtW Dealer cost + 25% (wheel weights and valve stems incl.).
^ Use the appropriate labor operation(s) from Attachment II.
^ Freight is reimbursable at actual cost in the miscellaneous expense area of the claim.
NOTE:
Freight is only reimbursable for rural dealers whose only means of acquiring tires is by having them
shipped in via common carrier. Dealers are encouraged to arrange for shipment of 4 or more tires
at a time.

Recycle Program". You may still claim any applicable local waste tax - enter OTHER in the
expense area of the claim with the actual cost.
^ Enter each unique (complete 10 or 11 digit) DOT codes of the replaced tires on the diagnostic
code entry screen in the field marked "other". If the DOT codes cannot be completely entered in the
space provided in the diagnostic code area, use the technician comment area to complete the data
entry.
RELATED DAMAGE
Vehicle damage caused by a tire related failure is not covered by this program. Refer to the
Warranty and Policy Manual for proper claiming procedure for vehicles covered by the Ford
Bumper-to-Bumper Tire Warranty (model years 2001 and 2002). All other pre-2001 model year
vehicles with alleged tire related vehicle damage should be handled through the Firestone claims
process, or by referring the customers to their insurance company.
Damage related to replacement of tires should be handled as described in the Warranty and Policy
Manual.
OWNER REFUND
With the increased availability of replacement tires, it will no longer be necessary for customers to
pay out-of-pocket expenses for tires. Therefore, refund requests for tires purchased after
November 15, 2001 will no longer be granted. Owners will be notified of the refund expiration date
and will be directed to a Ford or Mercury dealer They are directed to an authorized retailer only if
the Ford or Mercury dealer cannot meet their scheduling needs or tires are not in stock. All Ford
and Mercury dealers (AtW and non-AtW dealers) are required to process refunds for customers
who purchase tires prior to November 15, 2001.
The following rules apply to refunds for tires purchased from August 1, 2001 through November 15,
2001:
Refunds will be processed for vehicles listed under "AFFECTED TIRES AND VEHICLES", and for
other Ford and Lincoln Mercury vehicles that have 15-. 16-, or 17-inch Wilderness AT tires
installed.
^ The customer must provide the original paid receipt (a copy of their paid receipt is acceptable on
an exception basis in instances where the owner requires the original for another purpose (e.g.
extended tire warranty or purchase rebate). The dealer will attach the receipt to the dealer file copy
of the refund claim (see claim instructions below).
^ Dealers will be reimbursed to immediately disable tires returned for a refund (see claiming
instructions for refunds and Attachment II for labor operations).
^ The tires must be purchased August 1, 2000 through November 15, 2001 to be eligible for a
refund (through October 31, 2001 for 1995 and 1996 F-150 owners).

OVERVIEW
This program details the replacement of 15-, 16-, and 17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT tires
regardless of production plant. You will need to perform a DOT code inspection prior to replacing
the 15, 16, or 17-inch Wilderness AT tires.
NOTE:
When lowering or raising an under-vehicle spare, DO NOT use power tools. Also make sure that
the spare is secure under the vehicle, and not swinging loose. The spare tire winch will ratchet
when the tire is completely stowed.
NOTE:
Radial ATX "TEMPORARY USE" spare tires are not included under this program, and should not
be replaced as part of this program.
NOTE:
Spare tires should always be replaced with the exact same size tire; otherwise the spare tire may
not store in the proper position on the vehicle.
INSPECTION
1. Inspect the vehicle tires (including the spare tire) for the presence of Firestone Wilderness AT
tires.
2. If Firestone Wilderness AT tires are present replace them with a suitable replacement from the
"Approved Tire List".
Note:
There may be cases where a vehicle is equipped with 15-, 16-, or 17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT
tire sizes that are not included on the Ford-approved replacement list. These tires are not original
equipment (OE) and, therefore, will not have an approved tire listed. In such cases, it is
recommended that the customer install the proper OE tire, or have a tire of suitable quality
installed. Reference the vehicle's "Safety Certification Label" and current "Ford Motor Company
Tire Price Guide" for OE or suitable replacement recommendations.
3. If only one Firestone Wilderness AT road tire is present on the vehicle, you will need to replace
the opposing tire on the same axle. However, if one (1) front and one (1) rear tire are Wilderness
AT you would not automatically replace all four (4) tires instead, you would replace the two (2)
Wilderness AT tires and place them on the same axle.
4. Record the DOT code from each removed tire(s) on the repair order.
5. Tires that are removed from vehicles must immediately be made unusable by either cutting
through the bead and DOT code with bolt cutters, or drilling a one-inch diameter hole (directly on
the DOT code to make the code unreadable) in the sidewall.
6. Adjust all tires to the proper inflation pressure, and release the vehicle. For specifications, refer
to the vehicle Owner's Manual or the vehicle certification label located on the driver's door opening.
NOTE:
Tires that are removed from vehicles under this program, and those in dealer inventory must
immediately be made unusable by either cutting the bead with bolt cutters or drilling a 1" diameter
hole (directly on the DOT code to make the code unreadable) in the sidewall. Defacing the DOT
code will prevent the tire from being used for an additional refund request.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is a 4X4, and is equipped with non-Firestone Wilderness AT tires on one axle, and the
replacement tires for the Firestone equipped axle causes a mismatch with the existing
non-Firestone axle, the customer is responsible for the tire mismatch. If the customer refuses to
purchase matching tires to correct the mismatch - the dealer should annotate the repair order to
reflect the customer's decision.

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

recommended pressure. The vehicle manufacturers recommended tire pressure for the original
equipment tires can be found on the drivers side door placard.
2. Road test the vehicle on a smooth road for a minimum of 10 miles. Performance of the road test
at highway speeds is preferred.
NOTE
THIS MUST BE PERFORMED TO "EXERCISE" THE TIRES AND ELIMINATE "COLD" FLAT
SPOTTING THAT OCCURS DUE TO SHORT-PERIOD VEHICLE STORAGE OR PARKING. IF
THE VEHICLE'S TIRES ARE NOT EXERCISED FIRST, ACCURACY OF THE ROAD FORCE
MEASUREMENTS CAN VARY SIGNIFICANTLY, EVEN IF THE VEHICLE IS PARKED/STORED
IN ONE LOCATION FOR ONLY A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME (E.G. 20 MINUTES).
3. Perform the road force measurement IMMEDIATELY after exercising the tires. If the road force
measurement cannot be performed immediately, lift all four tires off the ground with a hoist or jack
stands to prevent measurement errors due to further flat spotting.
4. Assembly centering verification MUST be performed and PASSED prior to any road force
measurement.
For those with a software version other than 2.1 the centering verification must be performed
manually.
a. Spin assembly to measure. Record the assembly R1H.
b. Loosen wing-nut.
c. Rotate and reposition assembly and cone/adapter to a different mounting location (180 degrees).
d. Tighten wing-nut.
e. Re-spin to measure. Record the assembly R1H.
f. Compare results obtained in STEP a with those obtained in STEP e.
g. If the difference in assembly R1H measurements is less than 5 lbs., the assembly centering
verification PASSES and technician can proceed to the measurement/repair process. If the
centering verification FAILS proceed to STEP h.
h. The following items may contribute to an assembly centering verification FAILURE.
^ Cone/adapter does not fit properly or is incorrect for the application
^ The wheel mounting surface is damaged
5. For those with software version 2.1 the following procedure will lead the technician through a
Centering Check.
a. From the balance mode screen press the center SHIFT KEY ONCE (i.e. has two green arrows).
b. Push the "K1" button to select Perform Centering Check.
c. Follow the instructions.
d. If Centering Check PASSES proceed to the measurement/repair process. If the Centering Check
fails proceed to step e.
e. The following items may contribute to an assembly centering verification FAILURE.
^ Cone/adapter does not fit properly or is incorrect for the application
^ The wheel mounting surface is damaged
6. Prior to installing assembly on the vehicle balance assembly utilizing the two-plane dynamic
balancing mode.

Attachment I - Administrative Information
OASIS
OASIS must be used to determine vehicle eligibility.
IMPORTANT:
When an eligible vehicle is at the dealership for service, OASIS must be contacted to determine if
Owner Notification Program 01B77 is open. If 01B77 is listed in OASIS as open, it is important that
the vehicle is inspected for eligible tires. If the eligible vehicle is not equipped with 15-, 16-, or
17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT tires a claim must be submitted using labor operation 01B77A to
close the program. If an affected vehicle does not have 01B77 open, this may indicate that a refund
or tire replacement has already been processed on this vehicle.
Some Ford and Lincoln Mercury vehicles not listed in the AFFECTED TIRES AND VEHICLES list
may have 15-, 16-, or 17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT tires installed. These vehicles are covered
under this program, but will not be active in OASIS. Contact the Special Service Support Center at
1-800-325-5621 to obtain prior approval before performing the repair or issuing a refund. This will
insure that a previous repair/refund has not been performed on the vehicle.

process, or by referring the customers to their insurance company.
Damage related to replacement of tires should be handled as described in the Warranty and Policy
Manual.
OWNER REFUND
With the increased availability of replacement tires, it will no longer be necessary for customers to
pay out-of-pocket expenses for tires. Therefore, refund requests for tires purchased after
November 15, 2001 will no longer be granted. Owners will be notified of the refund expiration date
and will be directed to a Ford or Mercury dealer They are directed to an authorized retailer only if
the Ford or Mercury dealer cannot meet their scheduling needs or tires are not in stock. All Ford
and Mercury dealers (AtW and non-AtW dealers) are required to process refunds for customers
who purchase tires prior to November 15, 2001.
The following rules apply to refunds for tires purchased from August 1, 2001 through November 15,
2001:
Refunds will be processed for vehicles listed under "AFFECTED TIRES AND VEHICLES", and for
other Ford and Lincoln Mercury vehicles that have 15-. 16-, or 17-inch Wilderness AT tires
installed.
^ The customer must provide the original paid receipt (a copy of their paid receipt is acceptable on
an exception basis in instances where the owner requires the original for another purpose (e.g.
extended tire warranty or purchase rebate). The dealer will attach the receipt to the dealer file copy
of the refund claim (see claim instructions below).
^ Dealers will be reimbursed to immediately disable tires returned for a refund (see claiming
instructions for refunds and Attachment II for labor operations).

process the refund.
^ A section of the old tire(s) containing the DOT codes from each of the Firestone Wilderness AT
tires that were replaced (To be cut from the Wilderness AT tires that were replaced by the outside
repair facility) (use labor operation 01B77L). Dealers should deface (cut in pieces or make code
unreadable) the DOT sections of the tire so they cannot be used to obtain another refund. If
sections are brought in for refund with the DOT code defaced dealers should not process the
refund.
NOTE:

OVERVIEW
This program details the replacement of 15-, 16-, and 17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT tires
regardless of production plant. You will need to perform a DOT code inspection prior to replacing
the 15, 16, or 17-inch Wilderness AT tires.
NOTE:
When lowering or raising an under-vehicle spare, DO NOT use power tools. Also make sure that
the spare is secure under the vehicle, and not swinging loose. The spare tire winch will ratchet
when the tire is completely stowed.
NOTE:
Radial ATX "TEMPORARY USE" spare tires are not included under this program, and should not
be replaced as part of this program.
NOTE:
Spare tires should always be replaced with the exact same size tire; otherwise the spare tire may
not store in the proper position on the vehicle.
INSPECTION
1. Inspect the vehicle tires (including the spare tire) for the presence of Firestone Wilderness AT
tires.
2. If Firestone Wilderness AT tires are present replace them with a suitable replacement from the
"Approved Tire List".
Note:
There may be cases where a vehicle is equipped with 15-, 16-, or 17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT
tire sizes that are not included on the Ford-approved replacement list. These tires are not original
equipment (OE) and, therefore, will not have an approved tire listed. In such cases, it is
recommended that the customer install the proper OE tire, or have a tire of suitable quality
installed. Reference the vehicle's "Safety Certification Label" and current "Ford Motor Company
Tire Price Guide" for OE or suitable replacement recommendations.
3. If only one Firestone Wilderness AT road tire is present on the vehicle, you will need to replace
the opposing tire on the same axle. However, if one (1) front and one (1) rear tire are Wilderness
AT you would not automatically replace all four (4) tires instead, you would replace the two (2)
Wilderness AT tires and place them on the same axle.
4. Record the DOT code from each removed tire(s) on the repair order.
5. Tires that are removed from vehicles must immediately be made unusable by either cutting
through the bead and DOT code with bolt cutters, or drilling a one-inch diameter hole (directly on
the DOT code to make the code unreadable) in the sidewall.
6. Adjust all tires to the proper inflation pressure, and release the vehicle. For specifications, refer
to the vehicle Owner's Manual or the vehicle certification label located on the driver's door opening.
NOTE:
Tires that are removed from vehicles under this program, and those in dealer inventory must
immediately be made unusable by either cutting the bead with bolt cutters or drilling a 1" diameter
hole (directly on the DOT code to make the code unreadable) in the sidewall. Defacing the DOT
code will prevent the tire from being used for an additional refund request.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is a 4X4, and is equipped with non-Firestone Wilderness AT tires on one axle, and the
replacement tires for the Firestone equipped axle causes a mismatch with the existing
non-Firestone axle, the customer is responsible for the tire mismatch. If the customer refuses to
purchase matching tires to correct the mismatch - the dealer should annotate the repair order to
reflect the customer's decision.

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

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

Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Engine > Actuators and Solenoids - Engine > Variable Valve
Timing Actuator > Component Information > Description and Operation > Variable Cam Timing System > Page 2458
Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Solenoid Valve
The VCT solenoid valve (Figure 128) is an integral part of the VCT system. The solenoid valve
controls the flow of engine oil to the variable cam timing unit assembly. As the PCM duty cycles the
solenoid valve, oil is allowed to flow to the VCT unit assembly and advance or retard the cam
timing.
Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Unit Assembly
Variable Cam Timing Unit Assembly
The variable cam timing unit assembly (Figure 129) is coupled to the camshaft through a helical
spline in the VCT unit chamber. When the flow of oil is shifted from one side of the chamber to the
other, the differential change in oil pressure forces the piston to move linearly along the axis of the
camshaft. This linear motion is translated into rotational camshaft motion through the helical spline
coupling. A spring installed in the chamber is designed to hold the camshaft in the minimum
overlap position (5 degrees) when oil pressure is too low to maintain adequate position control. The
camshaft is allowed to rotate up to 30 degrees.

Compression Check: Testing and Inspection
Compression Test-Compression Gauge Check
1. Make sure the oil in the crankcase is of the correct viscosity and at the correct level and that the
battery is correctly charged. Operate the vehicle
until the engine is at normal operating temperature. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position,
then remove all the spark plugs.
2. Set the throttle plates in the wide-open position. 3. Install a compression gauge such as the
Compression Tester in the No. 1 cylinder. 4. Install an auxiliary starter switch in the starting circuit.
With the ignition switch in the OFF position, and using the auxiliary starter switch, crank
the engine a minimum of five compression strokes and record the highest reading. Note the
approximate number of compression strokes required to obtain the highest reading.
5. Repeat the test on each cylinder, cranking the engine approximately the same number of
compression strokes.
Compression Test-Test Results
The indicated compression pressures are considered within specification if the lowest reading
cylinder is within 75 percent of the highest reading. Refer to the Compression Pressure Limit Chart.
Compression Pressure Limit Chart
If one or more cylinders reads low, squirt approximately one tablespoon of engine oil on top of the
pistons in the low-reading cylinders. Repeat the compression pressure check on these cylinders.
Compression Test-Interpreting Compression Readings
1. If compression improves considerably, piston rings are faulty. 2. If compression does not
improve, valves are sticking or seating incorrectly. 3. If two adjacent cylinders indicate low
compression pressures and squirting oil on each piston does not increase compression, the head
gasket may
be leaking between cylinders. Engine oil or coolant in cylinders could result from this condition.

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

Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Solenoid Valve

Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Engine > Camshaft, Lifters and Push Rods > Variable Valve
Timing Actuator > Component Information > Description and Operation > Variable Cam Timing System > Page 2495
Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Solenoid Valve
The VCT solenoid valve (Figure 128) is an integral part of the VCT system. The solenoid valve
controls the flow of engine oil to the variable cam timing unit assembly. As the PCM duty cycles the
solenoid valve, oil is allowed to flow to the VCT unit assembly and advance or retard the cam
timing.
Variable Cam Timing (VCT) Unit Assembly
Variable Cam Timing Unit Assembly
The variable cam timing unit assembly (Figure 129) is coupled to the camshaft through a helical
spline in the VCT unit chamber. When the flow of oil is shifted from one side of the chamber to the
other, the differential change in oil pressure forces the piston to move linearly along the axis of the
camshaft. This linear motion is translated into rotational camshaft motion through the helical spline
coupling. A spring installed in the chamber is designed to hold the camshaft in the minimum
overlap position (5 degrees) when oil pressure is too low to maintain adequate position control. The
camshaft is allowed to rotate up to 30 degrees.

ISSUE Some vehicles equipped with the 4.0L SOHC engine may exhibit a CHECK ENGINE LIGHT
"ON" with Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) P0300 (Random Misfire) or P0301. The DTC will set
when the engine is operated at high RPM'S (4800 RPM and higher). The Misfire code results due
to system interaction of higher than expected transient exhaust system backpressure (under heavy
acceleration) coupled with valve spring resonance points experienced at these engine speeds. This
interaction may cause the' exhaust valve to hang open at engine speeds of 4800 RPM and higher.
ACTION Verify that the DTC sets only at 4800 RPM or higher. Remove current intake and exhaust
valve springs and replace with new service intake and exhaust valve springs. Refer to the following
Service Procedure for details.

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

The best time for determining oil level is before the engine is started and the oil has had sufficient
drainback time to the sump. If the engine has been running, allow it to sit for a few minutes turned
off. An oil drainback period is required before taking an initial reading.
If the level falls below the lower hole, fill with one quart of oil. If one quart is insufficient to raise the
level above the mark, add oil until it records within the crosshatch area. Use caution during this
procedure as some time is needed for oil to drain down through the drainback passages in the
cylinder head, to the oil pan. Adding oil a quart at a time repeatedly without sufficient drainback
may overfill the sump.
If the oil level falls between the upper and lower hole do not add more oil. Adding an extra quart
could cause overfilling and may result in aeration (foaming) causing eventual damage to vital
bearing surfaces and moving parts inside. Overfilling will require some oil to be drained out until the
indicator shows the level between the upper and lower holes of the blade. DO NOT expect the
engine to 'consume" the extra oil back down to the upper oil till level hole, or consider it as extra
lubrication protection for the engine.

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

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

Aluminum Cylinder Head - Removal From Engine
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Engine > Seals and Gaskets, Engine > Cylinder Head Gasket >
Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Engine - Reman Engine Head Gasket Identification > Page 2662
WARNING
ALUMINUM CYLINDER HEADS ARE HIGHLY POLISHED AND MUST BE HANDLED WITH
EXTREME CARE. AFTER REMOVING THE HEAD BOLTS, WITHDRAW THE HEAD FROM THE
ENGINE COMPARTMENT. USE EXTREME CARE NOTING THAT THE GASKET SURFACE OF
THE HEAD COULD BE DAMAGED ON THE WAY OUT OF THE VEHICLE IF ALLOWED TO HIT
AGAINST OTHER ENGINE COMPONENTS. ONCE REMOVED, PLACE THE HEAD ON A
BENCH, GASKET SIDE UP, USING A PIECE OF CLEAN CARDBOARD ON THE BENCH
SURFACE UNDERNEATH. DO NOT SLIDE THE HEAD GASKET SURFACE ALONG THE
BENCHTOP OR DAMAGE WILL OCCUR.
NOTE
SOME ENGINES REQUIRE A "DE-TORQUING" PROCEDURE OF THE CYLINDER HEAD
BOLTS. CONSULT WITH THE APPROPRIATE MODEL YEAR WORKSHOP MANUAL FIRST, AS
THIS PROCEDURE IS USUALLY DONE ON FOUR-VALVE ENGINES. HOWEVER, ALL
ALUMINUM HEADS ARE PRONE TO WARPAGE DURING REMOVAL IF TAKEN OFF WHEN
HOT OR WARM. THE ENGINE SHOULD BE COOLED SUFFICIENTLY BY THE TIME THE
HEADS ARE ACCESSIBLE DURING TEARDOWN. ALLOW AN ADEQUATE COOL DOWN
PERIOD.
NOTE
IN SOME ENGINE APPLICATIONS, IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO "RUBBER BAND" A FEW OF
THE HEAD BOLTS TOGETHER DUE TO TIGHT CLEARANCES OF THE HEAD NEAR
HEATER/AC PLENUMS AND THE BODY COWL. THIS WILL ALLOW THE BOLTS TO CLEAR
THE BLOCK DECK AS THE HEAD IS WITHDRAWN FROM THE VEHICLE.
Place CLEAN shop towels over the cylinder block bores to prevent further contamination from
reaching internal parts and surfaces. If a towel is to be removed, do it SLOWLY . Debris collected
on the towel can fall on the engine if care is not exercised as it is removed.
Gasket surfaces are machined to near-mirror surface quality. Scratches, dents, gouges, and other
impressions may allow oil, coolant, and compression gases to leak into other sealed cavities and/or
the atmosphere. Surface imperfections deteriorate the head gasket's ability to seal effectively.
Contamination on these surfaces will cause leaks from "shimming" the head even under full head
bolt torque. Contamination will also cause marks on the polished gasket surface, creating a leak
path.
Inspection For Damage and Cleaning Procedure
The overall straightness of the cylinder head and block face is held within very tight specification.
Defects known as "waviness" or "depressions" cannot be surface machined out with ordinary
equipment. Machining must meet manufacturer's specification on surface finish quality and be less
than 0.001" inch (0.025 mm) level as measured under a known quality straightedge using a feeler
gauge. If the engine has been overheated the cylinder head may have been damaged or warped.
Re-surfacing will not correct this damage.
The head must not contain any impressions on its sealing surface deeper than 0.001" (0.025 mm).
There must not be any scratches or gouges present, especially those which track to another
sealing cavity or to the atmosphere.
Ensure that the mating cylinder block surface is completely free of solid contamination, corrosion,
and fluids. Use Motorcraft Metal Surface Cleaner, F4AZ-19A536-RA or equivalent, to rid the
surface of any material, which could later interfere with the gasket's sealing ability.
WARNING
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ARE ANY ALUMINUM GASKET SURFACES TO BE CLEANED
USING RAZOR BLADES, ROTARY ABRASIVE DEVICES INCLUDING ROLOC AND 3M
BRANDED SCOTCHBRITE PRODUCTS, ROTARY WIRE BRUSHES, SINGLE HANDLED WIRE
BRUSHES, HAND ABRASIVE SUCH AS SANDPAPER OR EMERY CLOTH, OR ANY CARBON
STEEL BLADE. THESE TOOLS ARE PROVEN TO CUT AND DAMAGE ALUMINUM AND WILL
DISRUPT THE POLISHED FINISH. ABRASIVE PARTICLES ARE ALSO SUSCEPTIBLE TO
ENTERING THE ENGINE CAVITIES AND MAY CAUSE INTERNAL ENGINE DAMAGE. THE
ONLY TOOLS ACCEPTABLE ARE PLASTIC AND WOOD SCRAPERS COMBINED WITH USE
OF MOTORCRAFT METAL SURFACE CLEANER, F4AZ-19A536-RA, OR EQUIVALENT
SOLVENT.
The original head bolts are to be discarded. Only new head bolts are acceptable for use in a head
gasket repair. Use of old bolts can cause clamp load failure because they were stretched from the
last torquing procedure either from the plant or a previous field repair. The new head bolt shanks
and threads should be thoroughly cleaned, dried, and lightly lubricated. Oil the bolts and let oil drip
for a minimum of 5 minutes. Use of too much oil may cause hydraulic lockup in the bolt hole.
The corresponding bolt holes in the cylinder block must be free of contamination consisting of dirt
particles, coolant, and oil. Bolts can mechanically or hydraulically lock on top of these materials and
cause for poor clamping of the cylinder head gasket. Use very lightly compressed air to blow out
the bolt holes. Use care to prevent debris from scattering over the internal engine surfaces.
To clean the cylinder block gasket surface, a plastic or wood scraper in combination with Motorcraft
Metal Surface Cleaner, F4AZ-19A536-RA, or equivalent solvent can be used with a portable shop
vacuum. Move the scraper toward the vacuum nozzle to direct loosened material quickly away from
the block surface.
It is not necessary to expect aluminum head surfaces to be shiny and bright after the vehicle has
been in service. Sanding, scraping, or polishing will create surface depressions that cause leaks.
The surface is expected to be flat within 0.001" (0.025 mm) and free of dirt, metal chips, and liquid
contaminants. Any staining of the metal surface is considered normal.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Engine, Cooling and Exhaust > Engine > Seals and Gaskets, Engine > Cylinder Head Gasket >
Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Engine - Reman Engine Head Gasket Identification > Page 2663
Machining of aluminum heads and blocks is an unacceptable field practice for quality control
purposes of flatness and surface finish standards. Removing material will also raise the risk of
internal reciprocating components striking each other, as well as changing the emissions
calibration of the engine. Machining practices of aluminum blocks and heads are not reimbursable.
Ford Remanufacturers are authorized to perform this procedure and have the necessary
equipment to put the specified surface finish on the head within original factory limits.
Installation Onto the Cylinder Block Surface
WARNING
ANY GASKET SEALING AIDS WHICH ARE NOT LIMITED TO, AND INCLUDE AVIATION
CEMENT, COPPER SPRAYS, OR GLUES ARE NOT TO BE USED. THE GASKET MUST BE
FITTED DRY WITHOUT SUPPLEMENTAL SEALING AIDS. ATTEMPTS TO SEAL WITH THESE
COMPOUNDS WILL CAUSE HEAD SHIMMING AND/OR NEW LEAK PATHS. THESE
COMPOUNDS HAVE ALSO BEEN KNOWN TO CAUSE EMISSIONS SENSORS TO FAIL
THEREBY TRIPPING FAULT CODES IN THE PCM.
Ensure that all surfaces of the cylinder block, cylinder head, and gasket are fully free of any solid or
liquid contamination and have been prepared for assembly using Motorcraft Metal Surface Cleaner,
F4AZ-19A536-RA, or equivalent solvent. Also ensure that any residual dirt on the engine was
removed successfully from the surrounding areas of the block to head face of the head and the
block.
Using Workshop Manual procedures, assemble the head to the block carefully. Do not allow the
gasket surfaces to scrape or bang against other engine parts. The head may pick up material along
the way, if this is allowed. Once in place, with dowels properly aligned to the head and ensuring
that the head is fully square, seated, and resting on the block deck in a level condition, install new
"torque-to-yield" cylinder head bolts to a finger tight condition. Refer to the appropriate model year
Workshop Manual for the procedure to torque the head bolts in the correct sequence and at the
intervals specified. Failure to follow these instructions may result in a warped head, and damaged
head bolt threads.
Do not use "cheater pipes" on torque wrenches. Use a known quality, calibrated torque wrench.
Pull evenly and steady on each bolt. Do not exert side pressures on the bolt hex, which can disrupt
the integrity of the bolt head and give a false reading on the final torque value of the fastener.
Once the engine is fully reassembled, be sure that fluid levels have been topped off as required for
the operation. When the engine is ready for starting, ensure that the engine 6i1 pump is (was)
primed properly and is in a "ready to start" condition with all engine oil galleys having been charged
with oil.
WARNING
DO NOT RACE THE ENGINE UPON INITIAL STARTUP. MAINTAIN ENGINE IDLE TO BUILD OIL
PRESSURE. USE OF A MECHANICAL PRESSURE GAUGE WILL ENSURE THAT OIL FLOW
HAS DEVELOPED ON THE PUMP'S PRESSURE SIDE. A DEFECTIVE GAUGE OR LIGHT IN
THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WILL NOT VERIFY PRESSURE HAS BEEN OBTAINED. SEVERE
INTERNAL ENGINE DAMAGE WILL RESULT IF PRESSURE IS NOT OBSERVED AND
STEADILY MAINTAINED.
Allow a warm up period, which brings the engine to normal operating temperature. Check for leaks
around the gasket joints of the head, front cover, and associated component parts. The vehicle
should be road tested within normal guidelines to raise the engine to operating temperature and
verify the repair is sound.
Shut down the engine, allow for a cool-down and drain-back period to enable fluids to return to
levels. Check fluid levels using owner guide recommendations (dipstick, sight gages, etc.).

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

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

Compression Check: Testing and Inspection
Compression Test-Compression Gauge Check
1. Make sure the oil in the crankcase is of the correct viscosity and at the correct level and that the
battery is correctly charged. Operate the vehicle
until the engine is at normal operating temperature. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position,
then remove all the spark plugs.
2. Set the throttle plates in the wide-open position. 3. Install a compression gauge such as the
Compression Tester in the No. 1 cylinder. 4. Install an auxiliary starter switch in the starting circuit.
With the ignition switch in the OFF position, and using the auxiliary starter switch, crank
the engine a minimum of five compression strokes and record the highest reading. Note the
approximate number of compression strokes required to obtain the highest reading.
5. Repeat the test on each cylinder, cranking the engine approximately the same number of
compression strokes.
Compression Test-Test Results
The indicated compression pressures are considered within specification if the lowest reading
cylinder is within 75 percent of the highest reading. Refer to the Compression Pressure Limit Chart.
Compression Pressure Limit Chart
If one or more cylinders reads low, squirt approximately one tablespoon of engine oil on top of the
pistons in the low-reading cylinders. Repeat the compression pressure check on these cylinders.
Compression Test-Interpreting Compression Readings
1. If compression improves considerably, piston rings are faulty. 2. If compression does not
improve, valves are sticking or seating incorrectly. 3. If two adjacent cylinders indicate low
compression pressures and squirting oil on each piston does not increase compression, the head
gasket may
be leaking between cylinders. Engine oil or coolant in cylinders could result from this condition.

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

fan applications), Low Fan Control (LFC), Medium Fan Control (MFC) and/or High Fan Control

Although the PCM output circuits for three speed tans are called low, medium and high fan control
(FC), cooling fan speed is controlled by a combination of these outputs. Refer to the table.

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

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

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

glycol-based engine coolants.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

ISSUE
Some vehicles may exhibit excessive sulfur smell from the exhaust under certain drive modes. This
may be due to the highly active state of a new catalyst, calibration factors, underbody catalyst
temperature, and amount of sulfur present in the fuel.
ACTION
Identify year, model, and build date to identify appropriate service procedure. For applications that
require installing exhaust wrap, use good quality stainless steel worm-drive hose clamps for best
longevity, similar to what would commonly be used for exhaust heat shield rattle issues.

DRIVE SEQUENCE AFTER REPAIRS COMPLETED
Check engine oil and coolant levels. Verify both are at specified levels before driving vehicle.
Perform highway driving at normal highway speeds for 30 miles. The optimum engine speed for
this drive sequence is 3,000 to 4,500 rpm, and this can be accomplished by manually selecting the
transmission gear state. The goal of the drive procedure is to maintain a constant high temperature
level in the exhaust system through the use of increased engine speed. The combination of
increased temperature and driving will provide a sulfur cleaning environment for the catalyst
system.
CONTRIBUTING FACTORS TO SULFUR SMELL
Factors outside of engineering control may lead to a sulfur odor. A large contributing factor is the
amount of sulfur in the fuel. Replacing a Catalytic Converter multiple times will not alleviate the
sulfur odor. Several catalyst replacements on the same vehicle may actually increase customer
sensitivity to an exhaust odor concern. Based on some driving habits the converter does not get
hot enough to burn out stored sulfur residue and can produce a sulfur odor.
For example:
^ Extended Idle - Increase sulfur odor
^ Stop and go driving - Increase sulfur odor
^ Trailer Towing - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Heavy Loads - Decrease sulfur odor Short trips - Increase sulfur odor
^ Abrupt accel/decel - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Hotter driving conditions - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Hilly terrain - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Canceling Overdrive - Decrease sulfur odor
Catalysts with 5,000-10,000 Miles (8,000-16,000 kilometers) are likely to have a sulfur smell due to
the highly active state of the new catalyst. Refer to symptom chart # 22 of PCED for appropriate
year. Additives in fuels (Ethanol, Methanol, ETC.) can cause sulfur odor, suggest using a different
fuel source. Geographic variations on sulfur odor intensity are possible due to different refineries
supplying fuel to different areas of the country. California regulated fuel will exhibit less sulfur odor.
Experiment with different fuel brands. Some contain more sulfur than others, which can lead to an
increase in sulfur odor from the converter. Sulfur odors are an aromatic phenomenon and do not
cause any durability or safety concerns with vehicle operation.
To summarize for the customer, explain that sulfur is in the fuel used and the catalyst system on
their vehicle as a result of the fuel and driving environment which creates a condition where sulfur
has been stored in their exhaust system. The service action performed allows the sulfur to pass
through the exhaust system and to clean the existing sulfur deposits. During the initial cleansing of
the catalyst it is expected that a sulfur odor may still be present, and this odor may change from the
"rotten egg smell" to that of a "burning match". The odor will cease with time.

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

ISSUE
Some vehicles may exhibit excessive sulfur smell from the exhaust under certain drive modes. This
may be due to the highly active state of a new catalyst, calibration factors, underbody catalyst
temperature, and amount of sulfur present in the fuel.
ACTION
Identify year, model, and build date to identify appropriate service procedure. For applications that
require installing exhaust wrap, use good quality stainless steel worm-drive hose clamps for best
longevity, similar to what would commonly be used for exhaust heat shield rattle issues.

DRIVE SEQUENCE AFTER REPAIRS COMPLETED
Check engine oil and coolant levels. Verify both are at specified levels before driving vehicle.
Perform highway driving at normal highway speeds for 30 miles. The optimum engine speed for
this drive sequence is 3,000 to 4,500 rpm, and this can be accomplished by manually selecting the
transmission gear state. The goal of the drive procedure is to maintain a constant high temperature
level in the exhaust system through the use of increased engine speed. The combination of
increased temperature and driving will provide a sulfur cleaning environment for the catalyst
system.
CONTRIBUTING FACTORS TO SULFUR SMELL
Factors outside of engineering control may lead to a sulfur odor. A large contributing factor is the
amount of sulfur in the fuel. Replacing a Catalytic Converter multiple times will not alleviate the
sulfur odor. Several catalyst replacements on the same vehicle may actually increase customer
sensitivity to an exhaust odor concern. Based on some driving habits the converter does not get
hot enough to burn out stored sulfur residue and can produce a sulfur odor.
For example:
^ Extended Idle - Increase sulfur odor
^ Stop and go driving - Increase sulfur odor
^ Trailer Towing - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Heavy Loads - Decrease sulfur odor Short trips - Increase sulfur odor
^ Abrupt accel/decel - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Hotter driving conditions - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Hilly terrain - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Canceling Overdrive - Decrease sulfur odor
Catalysts with 5,000-10,000 Miles (8,000-16,000 kilometers) are likely to have a sulfur smell due to
the highly active state of the new catalyst. Refer to symptom chart # 22 of PCED for appropriate
year. Additives in fuels (Ethanol, Methanol, ETC.) can cause sulfur odor, suggest using a different
fuel source. Geographic variations on sulfur odor intensity are possible due to different refineries
supplying fuel to different areas of the country. California regulated fuel will exhibit less sulfur odor.
Experiment with different fuel brands. Some contain more sulfur than others, which can lead to an
increase in sulfur odor from the converter. Sulfur odors are an aromatic phenomenon and do not
cause any durability or safety concerns with vehicle operation.
To summarize for the customer, explain that sulfur is in the fuel used and the catalyst system on
their vehicle as a result of the fuel and driving environment which creates a condition where sulfur
has been stored in their exhaust system. The service action performed allows the sulfur to pass
through the exhaust system and to clean the existing sulfur deposits. During the initial cleansing of
the catalyst it is expected that a sulfur odor may still be present, and this odor may change from the
"rotten egg smell" to that of a "burning match". The odor will cease with time.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3120
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Sensors and Switches - Powertrain Management > Sensors and
Switches - Computers and Control Systems > Heated Oxygen Sensor <--> [Oxygen Sensor] > Component Information >
Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3123
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

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

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

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

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

Technical Service Bulletins > Page 3188
Tube Mounted Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The tube mounted differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 87) is identical in operation
as the larger metal or plastic DPFE sensors and uses a 1.0 volt offset. The HI and REF hose
connections are marked on the underside of the sensor.

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

8. NOTE: When the battery has been disconnected and reconnected, some abnormal drive
symptoms can occur while the vehicle relearns its
adaptive strategy. The customer needs to be notified that they may experience slightly different
upshifts either soft or firm and this is a temporary condition and will eventually return to normal
operating condition.

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

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

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

Service Bulletins > Page 3252
Tube Mounted Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The tube mounted differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 87) is identical in operation
as the larger metal or plastic DPFE sensors and uses a 1.0 volt offset. The HI and REF hose
connections are marked on the underside of the sensor.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Compression Check: Testing and Inspection
Compression Test-Compression Gauge Check
1. Make sure the oil in the crankcase is of the correct viscosity and at the correct level and that the
battery is correctly charged. Operate the vehicle
until the engine is at normal operating temperature. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position,
then remove all the spark plugs.
2. Set the throttle plates in the wide-open position. 3. Install a compression gauge such as the
Compression Tester in the No. 1 cylinder. 4. Install an auxiliary starter switch in the starting circuit.
With the ignition switch in the OFF position, and using the auxiliary starter switch, crank
the engine a minimum of five compression strokes and record the highest reading. Note the
approximate number of compression strokes required to obtain the highest reading.
5. Repeat the test on each cylinder, cranking the engine approximately the same number of
compression strokes.
Compression Test-Test Results
The indicated compression pressures are considered within specification if the lowest reading
cylinder is within 75 percent of the highest reading. Refer to the Compression Pressure Limit Chart.
Compression Pressure Limit Chart
If one or more cylinders reads low, squirt approximately one tablespoon of engine oil on top of the
pistons in the low-reading cylinders. Repeat the compression pressure check on these cylinders.
Compression Test-Interpreting Compression Readings
1. If compression improves considerably, piston rings are faulty. 2. If compression does not
improve, valves are sticking or seating incorrectly. 3. If two adjacent cylinders indicate low
compression pressures and squirting oil on each piston does not increase compression, the head
gasket may
be leaking between cylinders. Engine oil or coolant in cylinders could result from this condition.

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

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

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

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

IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - General
Never clean an IAC valve. Carburetor cleaners and other cleaning agents may temporarily repair
the drivability concern, but the long-term functionality of the valve is compromised.
For all drivability concerns, make certain the service writer obtains as much information as possible
from the customer as to the conditions causing drivability concern. Attached is a drivability concern
check off sheet (Figure 2) that if used, can help reduce the time required to diagnose a vehicle.
NOTE
IF THE ENGINE STALLED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN GEAR AND MOVING THE
POSSIBILITY OF THE IAC VALVE CAUSING THIS IS UNLIKELY UNLESS IT OCCURRED ON
DECELERATION.
Use the following Supplemental information for 3.0L 4V Duratec Engines, in the Taurus/Sable, and
Lincoln LS.
1. Use the following conditions for the test described below:
^ Transmission in park
^ Engine temperature should be at least 190° F (88°C)
^ All accessories should be off steering wheel in the center position
^ EGVR and EVAPDUTY CYCLE at zero, if the vehicle has an EGR system
^ Short and long term fuel trims less than 15%
^ At stabilized engine speed (RPM) and temperature (hot idle) per the Powertrain Control Emission
Diagnostics (PC/ED) manual, verify the IAC duty cycle is within reference values called out in the
chart in this TSB.
NOTE
IT IS USUAL TO SEE THE IAC DUTY CYCLE VARY BY 1% TO 2% OVER SEVERAL MINUTES.
If the Duty Cycle is out of specification, proceed with the following steps:
1. Ensure that there is no purge flow.
2. Verify PCM harness integrity by performing a wiggle test on the harness while the engine is
running and observe the IAC duty cycle and engine performance. Should abnormalities be
observed, repair the harness as required.
3. For an IAC duty cycle high concern, unplug and plug in the IAC power connector several times.
If the duty cycle remains high, replace IAC valve.
4. For an IAC duty cycle low concern, there may be an intake air leak. See the below IAC
diagnostic service tip for DTC 1506 and other high idle concerns.
Use the following Supplemental Information for the 3.9L Lincoln LS and Thunderbird.
1. Use the following conditions for the test described below:
^ Transmission in park

^ Engine idle at approximately 650 RPM
^ Engine temperature should be at least 190° F (88° C)
^ All accessories and the engine cooling fan should be off
^ Steering wheel in the center position
^ EGRVR and EVAPDUTY CYCLE are zero
^ Short and long term fuel trims less than 15%
NOTE
IT IS USUAL TO SEE THE IAC DUTY CYCLE VARY BY 1% TO 2% OVER SEVERAL MINUTES.
NOTE
IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO CHECK THE IAC DUTY CYCLE WHEN THE RPM IS AT 650
RPM. EVEN 700 RPM IS TOO HIGH FOR CHECKING the IAC VALVE DUTY CYCLE UNDER
THESE CONDITIONS. IF THE RPM IS OVER 650 RPM, MOMENTARILY OPENING AND
CLOSING THE THROTTLE AND A SHORT EQUILIBRATION TIME WILL LOWER THE RPM.
At stabilized engine speed and temperature, verify that the IAC duty cycle is between 27-36% with
no purge flow (EVAPV duty cycle is 0%).
If the Duty Cycle is out of specification, proceed with the following steps:
1. Ensure there is no purge flow.
2. Verify PCM harness integrity by performing a wiggle test on the harness while the engine is
running and observe the IAC duty cycle and engine performance. Should abnormalities be
observed, repair the harness as required.
3. For an IAC duty cycle high concern, unplug and plug in the IAC power connector several times.
If the duty cycle remains high, replace IAC valve.
4. For an IAC duty cycle low concern, there may be an intake air leak. See the below IAC
diagnostic service tip for DTC 1506 and other high idle concerns.
NOTE
IF THE ORIGINAL IAC VALVE WAS WITHIN DUTY CYCLE SPECIFICATION OR THE DUTY
CYCLE REMAINS OUT OF SPECIFICATIONS AFTER IAC VALVE REPLACEMENT FURTHER
DIAGNOSTICS ARE REQUIRED TO ADDRESS THE CUSTOMER CONCERN.
Use the following Supplemental Information for 4.0L SOHC Engines In the Ranger, Explorer,
Mountaineer, Explorer Sport and Explorer Sport Trac.
If no DTC's present check the following items in this order before examining the IAC valve:
^ BARO Hz reading - Refer to Barometric Pressure Chart listed in this TSB
^ Battery and fuse box power lead
^ Ground wire attachments
^ Wiring (wiggle test)
^ PCM voltage
^ Vacuum leaks
Examine AC valve under these conditions:
^ PCM updated to the latest available calibration
^ Transmission in park
^ Warm stabilized vehicle with engine temperature at least 190° F (88° C)
^ All accessories and cooling fan sh6uld be off

^ Steering wheel in the center position
^ EGVR and EVAPDC at zero, if the vehicle has an EGR system
^ Short and long term fuel trims (less than 15)
Perform the following steps in order:
1. Using either NGS or WDS bring up the following PIDS: IACTRIM, IACKAM2, IACKAM3.
2. Allow vehicle to idle until the IACTRIM PID is 0.
NOTE
IACTRIM ALWAYS TRIES TO GO TO 0. WHEN MOVING TOWARDS 0, THE IACKAM2 PID
SHOULD BE CHANGING. IF IACKAM3 IS CHANGING, THEN THE AIR CONDITIONING
SHOULD BE TURNED OFF.
3. If IACKAM2 is between -0.35 and +0.35 with IACTRIM=0, then the valve is operating properly at
idle. The remainder of this TSB will help diagnose true root cause.
4. If IACKAM2 is not between -0.35 and +0.35, it is highly likely that the engine idle system (to
include the throttle body and air intake system) -is not operating properly.
NOTE
FOR ALL VEHICLES PLEASE RECORD THE OBSERVED IAC DUTY CYCLE AND ENGINE RPM
IN THE WARRANTY CLAIMS COMMENTS FOR THIS DIAGNOSTIC.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - DTC 1506 (IAC Over Speed Error) and other High Idle Concerns:
^ There are two primary causes of high idle:
1. Damaged IAC valves and
2. Vacuum leaks
^ AC valves can be damaged from engine induction backfires. Many times the customer may not
notice the induction backfire but will notice the high idle afterwards. Indications of valve damage
can be a shiny, almost polished appearance in the interior of the valve and a dislocated
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))

Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Customer Interest for Auxiliary Air Valve (Idle Speed): > 03-3-5 >
Feb > 03 > Engine Controls - No Start/Hard Start/Rough Idle > Page 3403
pintle. An IAC valve damaged by backfire should be replaced. Refer to Figure 1.
^ Inspect PCV system for leaks especially looking for cracks along any rubber elbow joints; also
verify that the correct PCV valve is installed.
^ Inspect for vacuum hoses loose or disconnected from intended ports and connections. Induction
backfire can loosen or disconnect vacuum hoses.
^ Two indicators can help you identify if a vacuum leak is present, even if the engine RPM appear
normal in the service bay. If the duty cycle is below specification that is indicative that the engine is
receiving too much air (from a vacuum leak) and the PCM is ordering the valve to close up to
restrict flow. Another indication is fuel trim. Record the long term and short term fuel trim PIDS
(LONGFT1, LONGFT2, SHORTFT1, etc.), if short term fuel trims are high (above specification) this
is a possible indication of a vacuum leak, making the engine run lean, and the PCM is attempting to
compensate.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - DTC 1507 (IAC Under Speed Error) and Other Low Idle
Concerns:
^ An under speed error may not necessarily be a fault with the IAC valve. A large friction load on
the engine or obstruction in the air intake system could also reduce the engine RPMs.
^ There are four possible sources of friction load that can contribute to under speed error or low
idle concerns.
1. Power Steering Load
2. Air Conditioning Load
3. Electrical Load
4. Automatic Transmission Torque Converter Load
EAC Diagnostic Service Tips - Rough Idle
Concerns:
^ Rough idle concerns are often a result of a lean running condition
^ Another possible cause is contamination build up on the MAF sensor
EAC Diagnostic Service Tips - Engine Hard Start/Engine Crank-No Start
^ While performing diagnostics, the technician should ensure that the fuel system is working
correctly for all engines with hard start/crank no-start complaints.
^ When diagnosing a mechanical return less fuel system, the following correction to the PC/ED
pinpoint HC (4) diagnostic procedure should be used when performing the KEOE fuel pressure
test:
^ Perform the KOEO fuel pressure test as specific in the PC/ED manual.
^ The fuel pressure should drop off no more than 10 psi from maximum pressure (no lower than 55
psi for a 65 psi max system or no lower than 45 psi for a 55 psi max system) within 5 minutes of the
start of the test.
^ The fuel pressure should drop off to no less than 30 psi within 30 minutes of the start of the test.
^ For greatest accuracy, the service technician should read the fuel pressure as soon as possible
after pump shut off, no more than 5 minutes after the start of the test.
NOTE
RETURNABLE AND ELECTRONIC RETURN LESS SYSTEMS SHOULD ALSO BE DIAGNOSED
USING THE PROCEDURES LISTED FOR THEM IN PINPOINT TEST HC.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - High Idle RPM at Start Up:
^ Most engines will have a temporary high idle at engine start up to allow for catalyst light off. If
DTC 1506 is not present, this indicates that there is no fault present with the IAC.
^ A vehicle with very low odometer miles, may exhibit a higher than normal temporary startup fast
idle (1600-2500 RPM that decreases slowly). No

repairs should be attempted because this is a normal temporary PCM calibration strategy to
prevent spark plug fouling during plant/transportation operation. The calibration will permanently
revert to its normal strategy after the PCM has seen its first 4 miles of continuous drive cycle. A
brand new vehicle may accumulate some mileage without turning this strategy off if the drive cycle
has been below 4 miles at a time.

NOTE
BARO IS UPDATED ONLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS AT HIGH THROTTLE OPENINGS.
THEREFORE, A VEHICLE, WHICH IS DRIVEN DOWN FROM A HIGHER ALTITUDE MAY NOT

IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - General
Never clean an IAC valve. Carburetor cleaners and other cleaning agents may temporarily repair
the drivability concern, but the long-term functionality of the valve is compromised.
For all drivability concerns, make certain the service writer obtains as much information as possible
from the customer as to the conditions causing drivability concern. Attached is a drivability concern
check off sheet (Figure 2) that if used, can help reduce the time required to diagnose a vehicle.
NOTE
IF THE ENGINE STALLED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN GEAR AND MOVING THE
POSSIBILITY OF THE IAC VALVE CAUSING THIS IS UNLIKELY UNLESS IT OCCURRED ON
DECELERATION.
Use the following Supplemental information for 3.0L 4V Duratec Engines, in the Taurus/Sable, and
Lincoln LS.
1. Use the following conditions for the test described below:
^ Transmission in park
^ Engine temperature should be at least 190° F (88°C)
^ All accessories should be off steering wheel in the center position
^ EGVR and EVAPDUTY CYCLE at zero, if the vehicle has an EGR system
^ Short and long term fuel trims less than 15%
^ At stabilized engine speed (RPM) and temperature (hot idle) per the Powertrain Control Emission
Diagnostics (PC/ED) manual, verify the IAC duty cycle is within reference values called out in the
chart in this TSB.
NOTE
IT IS USUAL TO SEE THE IAC DUTY CYCLE VARY BY 1% TO 2% OVER SEVERAL MINUTES.
If the Duty Cycle is out of specification, proceed with the following steps:
1. Ensure that there is no purge flow.
2. Verify PCM harness integrity by performing a wiggle test on the harness while the engine is
running and observe the IAC duty cycle and engine performance. Should abnormalities be
observed, repair the harness as required.
3. For an IAC duty cycle high concern, unplug and plug in the IAC power connector several times.
If the duty cycle remains high, replace IAC valve.
4. For an IAC duty cycle low concern, there may be an intake air leak. See the below IAC
diagnostic service tip for DTC 1506 and other high idle concerns.
Use the following Supplemental Information for the 3.9L Lincoln LS and Thunderbird.
1. Use the following conditions for the test described below:
^ Transmission in park

03-3-5 > Feb > 03 > Engine Controls - No Start/Hard Start/Rough Idle > Page 3413
^ Engine idle at approximately 650 RPM
^ Engine temperature should be at least 190° F (88° C)
^ All accessories and the engine cooling fan should be off
^ Steering wheel in the center position
^ EGRVR and EVAPDUTY CYCLE are zero
^ Short and long term fuel trims less than 15%
NOTE
IT IS USUAL TO SEE THE IAC DUTY CYCLE VARY BY 1% TO 2% OVER SEVERAL MINUTES.
NOTE
IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO CHECK THE IAC DUTY CYCLE WHEN THE RPM IS AT 650
RPM. EVEN 700 RPM IS TOO HIGH FOR CHECKING the IAC VALVE DUTY CYCLE UNDER
THESE CONDITIONS. IF THE RPM IS OVER 650 RPM, MOMENTARILY OPENING AND
CLOSING THE THROTTLE AND A SHORT EQUILIBRATION TIME WILL LOWER THE RPM.
At stabilized engine speed and temperature, verify that the IAC duty cycle is between 27-36% with
no purge flow (EVAPV duty cycle is 0%).
If the Duty Cycle is out of specification, proceed with the following steps:
1. Ensure there is no purge flow.
2. Verify PCM harness integrity by performing a wiggle test on the harness while the engine is
running and observe the IAC duty cycle and engine performance. Should abnormalities be
observed, repair the harness as required.
3. For an IAC duty cycle high concern, unplug and plug in the IAC power connector several times.
If the duty cycle remains high, replace IAC valve.
4. For an IAC duty cycle low concern, there may be an intake air leak. See the below IAC
diagnostic service tip for DTC 1506 and other high idle concerns.
NOTE
IF THE ORIGINAL IAC VALVE WAS WITHIN DUTY CYCLE SPECIFICATION OR THE DUTY
CYCLE REMAINS OUT OF SPECIFICATIONS AFTER IAC VALVE REPLACEMENT FURTHER
DIAGNOSTICS ARE REQUIRED TO ADDRESS THE CUSTOMER CONCERN.
Use the following Supplemental Information for 4.0L SOHC Engines In the Ranger, Explorer,
Mountaineer, Explorer Sport and Explorer Sport Trac.
If no DTC's present check the following items in this order before examining the IAC valve:
^ BARO Hz reading - Refer to Barometric Pressure Chart listed in this TSB
^ Battery and fuse box power lead
^ Ground wire attachments
^ Wiring (wiggle test)
^ PCM voltage
^ Vacuum leaks
Examine AC valve under these conditions:
^ PCM updated to the latest available calibration
^ Transmission in park
^ Warm stabilized vehicle with engine temperature at least 190° F (88° C)
^ All accessories and cooling fan sh6uld be off

^ Steering wheel in the center position
^ EGVR and EVAPDC at zero, if the vehicle has an EGR system
^ Short and long term fuel trims (less than 15)
Perform the following steps in order:
1. Using either NGS or WDS bring up the following PIDS: IACTRIM, IACKAM2, IACKAM3.
2. Allow vehicle to idle until the IACTRIM PID is 0.
NOTE
IACTRIM ALWAYS TRIES TO GO TO 0. WHEN MOVING TOWARDS 0, THE IACKAM2 PID
SHOULD BE CHANGING. IF IACKAM3 IS CHANGING, THEN THE AIR CONDITIONING
SHOULD BE TURNED OFF.
3. If IACKAM2 is between -0.35 and +0.35 with IACTRIM=0, then the valve is operating properly at
idle. The remainder of this TSB will help diagnose true root cause.
4. If IACKAM2 is not between -0.35 and +0.35, it is highly likely that the engine idle system (to
include the throttle body and air intake system) -is not operating properly.
NOTE
FOR ALL VEHICLES PLEASE RECORD THE OBSERVED IAC DUTY CYCLE AND ENGINE RPM
IN THE WARRANTY CLAIMS COMMENTS FOR THIS DIAGNOSTIC.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - DTC 1506 (IAC Over Speed Error) and other High Idle Concerns:
^ There are two primary causes of high idle:
1. Damaged IAC valves and
2. Vacuum leaks
^ AC valves can be damaged from engine induction backfires. Many times the customer may not
notice the induction backfire but will notice the high idle afterwards. Indications of valve damage
can be a shiny, almost polished appearance in the interior of the valve and a dislocated
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))

pintle. An IAC valve damaged by backfire should be replaced. Refer to Figure 1.
^ Inspect PCV system for leaks especially looking for cracks along any rubber elbow joints; also
verify that the correct PCV valve is installed.
^ Inspect for vacuum hoses loose or disconnected from intended ports and connections. Induction
backfire can loosen or disconnect vacuum hoses.
^ Two indicators can help you identify if a vacuum leak is present, even if the engine RPM appear
normal in the service bay. If the duty cycle is below specification that is indicative that the engine is
receiving too much air (from a vacuum leak) and the PCM is ordering the valve to close up to
restrict flow. Another indication is fuel trim. Record the long term and short term fuel trim PIDS
(LONGFT1, LONGFT2, SHORTFT1, etc.), if short term fuel trims are high (above specification) this
is a possible indication of a vacuum leak, making the engine run lean, and the PCM is attempting to
compensate.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - DTC 1507 (IAC Under Speed Error) and Other Low Idle
Concerns:
^ An under speed error may not necessarily be a fault with the IAC valve. A large friction load on
the engine or obstruction in the air intake system could also reduce the engine RPMs.
^ There are four possible sources of friction load that can contribute to under speed error or low
idle concerns.
1. Power Steering Load
2. Air Conditioning Load
3. Electrical Load
4. Automatic Transmission Torque Converter Load
EAC Diagnostic Service Tips - Rough Idle
Concerns:
^ Rough idle concerns are often a result of a lean running condition
^ Another possible cause is contamination build up on the MAF sensor
EAC Diagnostic Service Tips - Engine Hard Start/Engine Crank-No Start
^ While performing diagnostics, the technician should ensure that the fuel system is working
correctly for all engines with hard start/crank no-start complaints.
^ When diagnosing a mechanical return less fuel system, the following correction to the PC/ED
pinpoint HC (4) diagnostic procedure should be used when performing the KEOE fuel pressure
test:
^ Perform the KOEO fuel pressure test as specific in the PC/ED manual.
^ The fuel pressure should drop off no more than 10 psi from maximum pressure (no lower than 55
psi for a 65 psi max system or no lower than 45 psi for a 55 psi max system) within 5 minutes of the
start of the test.
^ The fuel pressure should drop off to no less than 30 psi within 30 minutes of the start of the test.
^ For greatest accuracy, the service technician should read the fuel pressure as soon as possible
after pump shut off, no more than 5 minutes after the start of the test.
NOTE
RETURNABLE AND ELECTRONIC RETURN LESS SYSTEMS SHOULD ALSO BE DIAGNOSED
USING THE PROCEDURES LISTED FOR THEM IN PINPOINT TEST HC.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - High Idle RPM at Start Up:
^ Most engines will have a temporary high idle at engine start up to allow for catalyst light off. If
DTC 1506 is not present, this indicates that there is no fault present with the IAC.
^ A vehicle with very low odometer miles, may exhibit a higher than normal temporary startup fast

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

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

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

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

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

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

Data Link Connector: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Data Link Connector >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3460
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Data Link Connector >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3461
Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Data Link Connector >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3462
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Data Link Connector >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3463
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Data Link Connector: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

ISSUE
Some vehicles may exhibit an inoperative or inaccurate speedometer, 4x4 lamp illuminated, and/or
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTCs) P1635 or P1639 present after a Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) or Instrument Cluster replacement. This may be caused by the Vehicle Identification (VID)
block that must be programmed when replacing the PCM.
ACTION
As part of the calibration, there is an area referred to as the Vehicle Identification (VID) block. The
VID block must be programmed when replacing the PCM. Failure to perform the proper
Programmable Module Installation procedure may generate fault code: P1639 VID Block not
programmed or is corrupt--P1635 Tire/Axle Out Of Acceptable Range. Refer to the following
procedures to ensure the PCM is properly configured.

a. Make sure WDS is docked or attached to vehicle battery supply.
b. Verify WDS software is at the latest release level.
3. If there is a communication error, attempt to communicate with a different diagnostic scan tool,
such as NGS, NGS+, VCM or another WDS.
NOTE
IF COMMUNICATION STILL CANNOT BE ESTABLISHED, VOLTAGE DROP PCM POWERS,
GROUNDS, AND CHECK VREF.
PCM REPLACEMENT - STANDARD
1. Open WDS vehicle session with original PCM installed in vehicle. If the original PCM is not able
to communicate, to open a session, proceed to the Blank Path Programming procedure.
2. Install the new PCM.
NOTE
IF WDS NEEDS TO BE USED ON A DIFFERENT VEHICLE WHILE THE NEW PCM IS BEING
INSTALLED, PLACE THE VEHICLE SESSION ON "HOLD" FOR USE LATER.
3. Attempt to start the vehicle.
4. Run KOEO Self Test to check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) in PCM.
5. Check for DTC P0602/P0605/P1639.
a. If DTC P0602/P0605/P1639 is present then Programmable Module Installation (PMI) procedure
must be performed. Use the WDS session opened at Step 1.
b. If DTC P0602/P0605/P1639 is not present, then verify Programmable Parameters are properly
set such as tire size, axle ratio, etc.
6. Check for DTC B2900.
a. If DTC B2900 is present, perform PMI on the ABS module. Do Not replace ABS module for this
procedure when directed. You may be prompted to enter the 9 lines of PCM As-Built data during
this procedure.
b. If DTC B2900 is not present proceed to Step 7.
7. Diagnose all other DTCs following normal diagnostic procedures.

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

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

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

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

Module Communication Network: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

<--> [Information Bus] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3540
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

<--> [Information Bus] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3542
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Module Communication Network
<--> [Information Bus] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3543
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Module Communication Network: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Module Communication Network: Description and Operation
The module communications network consists of the following items:
^ Generic Electronics Module (GEM)
^ Standard Corporate Protocol (SCP) communications network
^ International Standards Organization (ISO) communications network
^ Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
^ Anti-lock Brake Module (ABS)
^ Restraint Control Module (RCM)
^ central security module
^ Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) control module (if equipped)

Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Module Communication Network
<--> [Information Bus] > Component Information > Description and Operation > Description and Operation > Page 3563
Module Communication Network: Description and Operation Principles and Operation
The vehicle has two module communications networks. The Standard Corporate Protocol (SCP),
which is an unshielded twisted pair cable (data bus plus, circuit 914 [TN/OG] and data bus minus,
circuit 915 [PK/LB]); and the International Standards Organization (ISO) 9141 network which is a
single wire (circuit 70 [LB/WH]). The diagnostic tool can connect to both networks through the Data
Link Connector (DLC). This makes diagnosis and testing of these systems easier by allowing one
smart tester to be able to diagnose and control any module on the two networks from one
connector. The DLC can be found under the instrument panel between the steering column and the
radio.
The SCP communication network will remain operational even with the severing of one of the bus
wires. Communications will also continue if one of the bus wires is shorted to ground or voltage, or
if some, but not all, termination resistors are lost.
The ISO 9141 communication network does not permit inter-module communication. When the
diagnostic tool communicates to modules on the ISO 9141 communication network, the diagnostic
tool must ask for all information; the modules cannot initiate communications.
Unlike the SCP, the ISO 9141 communication network will not function if the wire is shorted to
ground or battery voltage. Also, if one of the modules on the ISO 9141 communication network
loses power or shorts internally, communications to that module will fail.
There is one module linked to the SCP communication network and five modules linked to the ISO
9141 communication network.
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is on the SCP communication network. The PCM controls
the engine for better fuel economy, emissions control and failure mode detection and storage.
The Restraint Control Module (RCM) is on the ISO 9141 communication network. The RCM
controls the deployment of the air bags based on sensor input.
The Generic Electronic Module (GEM) is on the ISO 9141 communication network. The GEM
controls a variety of systems:
^ windshield wipers
^ courtesy lamps
^ warning chimes
^ interior lamps
^ exterior lamps
^ power windows
For additional GEM information, refer to Multifunction Electronic Control Module (General Module).
The central security module is on the ISO 9141 communication network. The central security
module controls the keyless remote entry of the vehicle. The Anti-lock Brake Control (ABS) module
is on the ISO 9141 communication network. The ABS module controls the brake pressure to the
four wheels to keep the vehicle under control while braking.
The Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) control module is on the ISO 9141 communications network. The
4WD module controls all four-wheel drive functions including the 4WDLOW and 4WDHIGH
indicator lamps.

Module Communication Network: Description and Operation Principles of Operation
Some modules must be programmed as part of the repair procedure. If this procedure is not
followed the module will not function correctly and may set a number of Diagnostic Trouble Codes
(DTCs), including B2477 or P1639, which indicate that some necessary data has not been
programmed into the module.
Modules that need programming should not be transferred between vehicles. In most cases the
parameter values or settings are unique to that vehicle, and if not set correctly will cause
malfunctions or faults.
Some programmable parameters, such as belt minder on/off, can be changed from the factory
setting at the customer's request.
WDS will automatically attempt to retrieve the module configuration information from all modules,
and from a backup location in the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) when Vehicle ID is carried out.
If the module and the PCM do not contain correct information the diagnostic tool will either request
"As Built" data or display a list of items that you will need to manually configure. The diagnostic tool
will program the module based on the data you enter.
There are three different methods that are used for module programming:
^ Programmable Module Installation (PMI)
^ calibration update
^ programmable parameters
Some modules do not support all three methods.
Programmable Module Installation (PMI)
The programmable module installation (PMI) method is used when a new programmable module is
installed on the vehicle. It is no longer necessary to command the diagnostic tool to gather module
option content from the old module. The diagnostic tool automatically obtains any available module
option content information from the old module during the Vehicle ID routine that runs when the
diagnostic tool is initially connected to the vehicle. It is important that you connect WDS to the
vehicle and allow it to identify the vehicle and obtain configuration data prior to removing any
modules.
Calibration Update
Calibration update is used to install a new calibration and strategy into a module. The updates are
usually issued to fix a concern in the module software and would normally be addressed by a
Technical Service Bulletin (TSB). This method has been used by the PCM for several years. Other
modules will be adopting this strategy as well.
Programmable Parameters
This method is used to configure parameters that can be modified in repair. These are typically at
the preference of the customer. Not all features controlled by the module are listed in this
configuration method. Refer to the Module Configuration Index for a list of features by system.
If a module that has been modified using programmable parameters needs to be installed, the PMI
procedure will maintain the parameters in their altered state if WDS is able to communicate with the
old module during Vehicle ID. Otherwise you may need to use programmable parameters to return
them to the altered state.
Vehicle Identification (VID) Block
Some PCMs contain a memory area called a vehicle identification (VID) block. The VID block is
used to store backup data for each programmable module, as well as powertrain configuration
information.
If the diagnostic tool cannot retrieve module option content information from the suspect module,
the diagnostic tool will attempt to extract backup information from the PCM's VID block.
The PCM VID block contains the factory settings for the configurable modules unless the PCM is
flashed with a new calibration, in which case some PCM parameters may be modified.
As-Built Data Center
The As-Built Data Center maintains a record of the vehicle configuration in a database. The
vehicles VIN is necessary to obtain this information. The As-Built Data Center records the
applicable module configurations stored in each module before the vehicle leaves the factory. The
As-Built Data Center will always reflect the original build of the vehicle as it left the factory. Only
contact the As-Built Data Center when directed to do so by the diagnostic tool.

Central Junction Box (CJB) fuse 17 (20A)
^ Damaged wiring harness
^ Loose or corroded connectors
3. If the concern remains after the inspection, connect the diagnostic tool to the Data Link
Connector (DLC) located beneath the instrument panel
and select the vehicle to be tested from the diagnostic tool menu. If the diagnostic tool does not
communicate with the vehicle: ^
check that the program card is correctly installed.
^ check the connections to the vehicle.
^ check the ignition switch position.
If the diagnostic tool still does not communicate with the vehicle, go to Pinpoint Test I. See:
Pinpoint Tests/Pinpoint Tests/Test I: No Module/Network Communication
4. Go to Pinpoint Test PC. See: Pinpoint Tests/Pinpoint Test PC (Precheck)

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

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

Heated Oxygen Sensor: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Heated Oxygen Sensor <-->
[Oxygen Sensor] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3623
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

[Oxygen Sensor] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3625
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Heated Oxygen Sensor <-->
[Oxygen Sensor] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3626
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

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

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

The power steering pressure (PSP) sensor (Figure 38) monitors the hydraulic pressure within the
power steering system. The PSP sensor voltage input to the PCM will change as the hydraulic
pressure changes. The PCM uses the input signal from the PSP sensor to compensate for
additional loads on the engine by adjusting the idle rpm and preventing engine stall during parking
maneuvers. Also, the PSP sensor signals the PCM to adjust transmission electronic pressure
control (EPC) pressure during the increased engine load, for example during parking maneuvers.

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

Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Pressure Feedback Exhaust
Sensor, EGR > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Page 3694
Tube Mounted Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The tube mounted differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 87) is identical in operation
as the larger metal or plastic DPFE sensors and uses a 1.0 volt offset. The HI and REF hose
connections are marked on the underside of the sensor.

Article 02-5-8 is being republished in its entirety to update the Service Procedure and to clarify
build dates for Explorer.
This article applies to all vehicles listed with the exception of 2002 Explorer. This article applies to
2002 Explorer (SLAP) St. Louis Assembly Plant built before 3/11/2002 and 2002 Explorer (LAP)
Louisville Assembly Plant built before 3/4/2002 only.
ISSUE
Some vehicles may exhibit an inoperative or inaccurate speedometer, 4x4 lamp illuminated, and/or
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTCs) P1635 or P1639 present after a Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) or Instrument Cluster replacement. This may be caused by the Vehicle Identification (VID)
block that must be programmed when replacing the PCM.
ACTION
As part of the calibration, there is an area referred to as the Vehicle Identification (VID) block. The
VID block must be programmed when replacing the PCM. Failure to perform the proper
Programmable Module Installation procedure may generate fault code: P1639 VID Block not
programmed or is corrupt--P1635 Tire/Axle Out Of Acceptable Range. Refer to the following
procedures to ensure the PCM is properly configured.

Service Procedure
NGS Procedure "A" will prevent P1639/P1635 from setting. In the event either code is set, use one
of the following NGS Procedures "B" or "C" or WDS Procedure "D" to ensure the PCM is properly
configured.
NOTE
THE FOLLOWING NGS PROCEDURES MUST BE PERFORMED USING THE NGS FLASH
CABLE.
Procedure A - NGS PREFERRED Method To Prevent P1635/P1639
1. With the original PCM installed and using the NGS service card, select "Programmable Module
Installation".
2. Select PCM from the module list.
3. Select "Retrieve Module Config-Old ECU".
4. After the Module data has been stored, install the new PCM, press CANCEL to return to the
menu and select "Restore Module Config-New ECU".
This procedure will retrieve the VID data from the original PCM and store it into the new PCM. If the
original PCM will not communicate, install the new PCM and start the procedure over at Step 1. If
the new PCM VID is blank, the NGS will direct you to contact the As-Built Data center during Step
a above. Obtain As-Built Data from the Professional Technician Society (PTS) website and
manually enter the PCM data from the As-Built Data sheet as the NGS asks for it. After the data
has been entered, continue to Step 4 above.
Procedure B - NGS Alternative Method
1. Using NGS service card, select "Service Bay Functions".
2. Select PCM from the module list.
3. Select "Module Configuration".
4. Select "94-02 EECV & PTEC-By TSB".
5. Cycle ignition as directed by NGS.
6. Once the PCM initializes and the warning screen is displayed, Tire size/Axle, etc. can then be
updated.
Procedure C - If the VID block is not correctly programmed - but has some data stored in it, the
NGS Service Function Card may not be able to configure the PCM due to the need to reprogram
the module
1. Create an NGS Flash Card with the correct calibration (Tear Tag).
2. Start the reprogramming process. (you will be notified that the vehicle already has the latest
calibration).
3. Select CANCEL - you will be given the opportunity to update PCM parameters (Vehicle ID block
data).
4. Update the Vehicle ID block data and, it necessary, the NGS will continue to reflash the module.
Procedure D - WDS Procedure if proper Programmable Module Installation was not performed and
P1639/P1635 is set
Using WDS with B11 or later software and ignition in OFF position:
1. Connect WDS DLC cable to vehicle OBD II connector (lower center of dash).
2. Select "16 PIN", select "All others, except those below", press TICK.
3. Screen shows installation of cable, press TICK.
4. Screen tells you to turn Ignition ON, DO NOT TURN IGNITION ON. Press TICK.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The crankshaft position (CKP) sensor (Figure 54) is a magnetic transducer mounted on the engine

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

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

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

Engine Oil Temperature
Engine Oil Temperature (EOT) Sensor
The Engine Oil Temperature (EOT) sensor (Figure 29) is a thermistor device in which resistance
changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as the temperature
increases and increases as the temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects the voltage
drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to
temperature.

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

Heated Oxygen Sensor: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the

The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Computers and Control Systems > Sensors and Switches Computers and Control Systems > Heated Oxygen Sensor <--> [Oxygen Sensor] > Component Information > Diagrams >
Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 3808
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

DRIVE SEQUENCE AFTER REPAIRS COMPLETED
Check engine oil and coolant levels. Verify both are at specified levels before driving vehicle.
Perform highway driving at normal highway speeds for 30 miles. The optimum engine speed for
this drive sequence is 3,000 to 4,500 rpm, and this can be accomplished by manually selecting the
transmission gear state. The goal of the drive procedure is to maintain a constant high temperature
level in the exhaust system through the use of increased engine speed. The combination of
increased temperature and driving will provide a sulfur cleaning environment for the catalyst
system.
CONTRIBUTING FACTORS TO SULFUR SMELL
Factors outside of engineering control may lead to a sulfur odor. A large contributing factor is the
amount of sulfur in the fuel. Replacing a Catalytic Converter multiple times will not alleviate the
sulfur odor. Several catalyst replacements on the same vehicle may actually increase customer
sensitivity to an exhaust odor concern. Based on some driving habits the converter does not get
hot enough to burn out stored sulfur residue and can produce a sulfur odor.
For example:
^ Extended Idle - Increase sulfur odor
^ Stop and go driving - Increase sulfur odor
^ Trailer Towing - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Heavy Loads - Decrease sulfur odor Short trips - Increase sulfur odor
^ Abrupt accel/decel - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Hotter driving conditions - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Hilly terrain - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Canceling Overdrive - Decrease sulfur odor
Catalysts with 5,000-10,000 Miles (8,000-16,000 kilometers) are likely to have a sulfur smell due to
the highly active state of the new catalyst. Refer to symptom chart # 22 of PCED for appropriate
year. Additives in fuels (Ethanol, Methanol, ETC.) can cause sulfur odor, suggest using a different
fuel source. Geographic variations on sulfur odor intensity are possible due to different refineries
supplying fuel to different areas of the country. California regulated fuel will exhibit less sulfur odor.
Experiment with different fuel brands. Some contain more sulfur than others, which can lead to an
increase in sulfur odor from the converter. Sulfur odors are an aromatic phenomenon and do not
cause any durability or safety concerns with vehicle operation.
To summarize for the customer, explain that sulfur is in the fuel used and the catalyst system on
their vehicle as a result of the fuel and driving environment which creates a condition where sulfur
has been stored in their exhaust system. The service action performed allows the sulfur to pass
through the exhaust system and to clean the existing sulfur deposits. During the initial cleansing of
the catalyst it is expected that a sulfur odor may still be present, and this odor may change from the
"rotten egg smell" to that of a "burning match". The odor will cease with time.

^ Canceling Overdrive - Decrease sulfur odor
Catalysts with 5,000-10,000 Miles (8,000-16,000 kilometers) are likely to have a sulfur smell due to
the highly active state of the new catalyst. Refer to symptom chart # 22 of PCED for appropriate
year. Additives in fuels (Ethanol, Methanol, ETC.) can cause sulfur odor, suggest using a different
fuel source. Geographic variations on sulfur odor intensity are possible due to different refineries
supplying fuel to different areas of the country. California regulated fuel will exhibit less sulfur odor.
Experiment with different fuel brands. Some contain more sulfur than others, which can lead to an
increase in sulfur odor from the converter. Sulfur odors are an aromatic phenomenon and do not
cause any durability or safety concerns with vehicle operation.
To summarize for the customer, explain that sulfur is in the fuel used and the catalyst system on
their vehicle as a result of the fuel and driving environment which creates a condition where sulfur
has been stored in their exhaust system. The service action performed allows the sulfur to pass
through the exhaust system and to clean the existing sulfur deposits. During the initial cleansing of
the catalyst it is expected that a sulfur odor may still be present, and this odor may change from the
"rotten egg smell" to that of a "burning match". The odor will cease with time.

Catalytic Converter: Description and Operation Catalyst and Exhaust Systems
Overview
Generic Catalyst And Exhaust System
The Catalytic Converter and Exhaust Systems (Figure 133) work together to control the release of
harmful engine exhaust emissions into the atmosphere. The engine exhaust gas consists mainly of
Nitrogen (N), Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water Vapor (H2O). However, it also contains Carbon
Monoxide (CO), Oxides Of Nitrogen (NOx), Hydrogen (H), and various unburned Hydrocarbons
(HCs). CO, NOx, and HCs are major air pollutants, and their emission into the atmosphere must be
controlled.
The exhaust system generally consists of an exhaust manifold, front exhaust pipe, upstream
Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S), rear exhaust pipe, downstream HO2S, a muffler and an exhaust
tailpipe. The catalytic converter is installed between the front and rear exhaust pipes. Catalytic
converter efficiency is monitored by the On Board Diagnostic (OBD II) system. (Refer to OBD II
Monitors to Catalyst Efficiency Monitor-Federal Test Procedure for specific information.)
Catalytic Converter
A catalyst is a material that remains unchanged when it initiates and increases the speed of a
chemical reaction. A catalyst will also enable a chemical reaction to occur at a lower temperature.
The concentration of exhaust gas products released to the atmosphere must be controlled. The
catalytic converter assists in this task. It contains a catalyst in the form of a specially treated
ceramic honeycomb structure saturated with catalytically active precious metals. As the exhaust
gases come in contact with the catalyst, they are changed into mostly harmless products. The
catalyst initiates and speeds up heat producing chemical reactions of the exhaust gas components
so they are used up as much as possible.
Light Off Catalyst
As the catalyst heats up, converter efficiency rises rapidly. The point at which conversion efficiency
exceeds 50% is called catalyst light off. For most catalysts this point occurs at 475 to 575°F (246 to
301°C). A fast light catalyst is a Three Way Catalyst (TWC) that is located as close to the exhaust
manifold as possible. Because the light off catalyst is located close too the exhaust manifold it will
light off faster and reduce emissions quicker than the catalyst located under the body. Once the
catalyst lights off, the catalyst will quickly reach the maximum conversion efficiency for that
catalyst.
TWC Conversion Efficiency
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Emission Control Systems > Catalytic Converter > Component
Information > Description and Operation > Catalyst and Exhaust Systems > Page 3966
TWC Conversion Efficiency Chart
A TWC requires a stoichiometric fuel ratio, 14.7 pounds of air to 1 pound of fuel (14.7:1), for high
conversion efficiency. In order to achieve these high efficiencies, the air/fuel ratio must be tightly
controlled with a narrow window of stoichiometry. Devations outside of this window will greatly
decrease the conversion efficiency (Figure 134). For example a rich mixture will decrease the HC
and CO conversion efficiency while a lean mixture will decreases the NOx conversion efficiency.
Exhaust System
The purpose of the exhaust system is to convey engine emissions from the exhaust manifold to the
atmosphere. Engine exhaust emissions are directed from the engine exhaust manifold to the
catalytic converter through the front exhaust pipe. An HO2S is mounted on the front exhaust pipe
before the catalyst. The catalytic converter reduces the concentration of carbon monoxide (CO),
unburned hydrocarbons (HCs) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) in the exhaust emissions to an
acceptable level. The reduced exhaust emissions are directed from the catalytic converter through
another HO2S mounted in the rear exhaust pipe and than on in the muffler. Lastly, the exhaust
emissions are directed to the atmosphere through an exhaust tailpipe.
Hardware
The downstream HO2S may be located after the light off catalyst or underbody catalyst. The
underbody catalyst may be in-line with the light off catalyst, or the underbody catalyst may be
common to two light off catalysts, forming a "Y" pipe configuration. For an exact configuration of the
catalyst and exhaust system, refer to Exhaust System.
Three Way Catalytic Converter
The three way catalytic (TWC) converter contains either platinum (Pt) and rhodium (Rh) or
palladium (Pd) and rhodium (Rh). The TWC converter catalyzes the oxidation reactions of
unburned HCs and CO and the reduction reaction of NOx. The three-way conversion can be best
accomplished by always operating the engine air fuel/ratio at or close to stoichiometry.
Exhaust Manifold/Runners
The exhaust manifold runners collect exhaust gases from engine cylinders. The number of exhaust
manifolds and exhaust manifold runners depends on the engine configuration and number of
cylinders.
Exhaust Pipes
Exhaust pipes are usually treated during manufacturing with an anti-corrosive coating agent to
increase the life of the product. The pipes serve as guides for the flow of exhaust gases from the
engine exhaust manifold through the catalytic converter and the muffler.
Upstream Heated and Downstream Heated Oxygen Sensors
The HO2S provide the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with voltage and frequency information
related to the oxygen content of the exhaust gas. (Refer to the PCM Inputs for a description of how
the HO2S operates.)
In addition to providing the PCM with indications of how rich/lean the engine is operating, the
upstream HO2S signal serves as an input to the HO2S monitor. The downstream HO2S signal is
an input to the Catalyst Efficiency monitor. (Refer to the OBD II Monitors for specific information on
these monitors.)
Muffler
Mufflers are usually treated during manufacturing with an anti-corrosive coating agent to increase
the life of the product. The muffler reduces the level of noise produced by the engine, and it also
reduces the noise produced by exhaust gases as they travel from the catalytic converter to the

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

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

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

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

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

4. A MAP sensor is used to measure variations in manifold pressure as exhaust gas recirculation is
introduced into the intake manifold.
Variations in EGR being used will correlate to the MAP signal (increasing EGR will increase
manifold pressure values).

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

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

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

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

Page 4162
Tube Mounted Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor
The tube mounted differential pressure feedback EGR sensor (Figure 87) is identical in operation
as the larger metal or plastic DPFE sensors and uses a 1.0 volt offset. The HI and REF hose
connections are marked on the underside of the sensor.

Accelerator Pedal: Description and Operation
The throttle is controlled by an accelerator cable attached to the accelerator pedal and shaft
assembly. The accelerator pedal and shaft should travel smoothly from the idle position to the wide
open throttle position. Hesitation or binding should not be experienced at any portion of the
accelerator pedal and shaft travel. Surrounding components such as wiring, hoses, sound insulator
and floor carpet must not contact the sliding inner member of the accelerator cable or interfere with
the accelerator pedal and shaft.
The acceleration control consists of an accelerator pedal and cable.

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

Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Mass Air Flow Sensor <--> [Air Flow
Meter/Sensor] > Component Information > Locations > Page 4203
Some MAF sensors have Integrated Bypass Technology (IBT) with an integrated intake air
temperature (IAT) sensor. The present applications with IBT are: Focus, Escort (4V), 2.0L Cougar,
Escape, Taurus/Sable, Windstar, Explorer/Mountaineer and E-Series.
The MAF sensor is located between the air cleaner and the throttle body or inside the air cleaner
assembly.

IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - General
Never clean an IAC valve. Carburetor cleaners and other cleaning agents may temporarily repair
the drivability concern, but the long-term functionality of the valve is compromised.
For all drivability concerns, make certain the service writer obtains as much information as possible
from the customer as to the conditions causing drivability concern. Attached is a drivability concern
check off sheet (Figure 2) that if used, can help reduce the time required to diagnose a vehicle.
NOTE
IF THE ENGINE STALLED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN GEAR AND MOVING THE
POSSIBILITY OF THE IAC VALVE CAUSING THIS IS UNLIKELY UNLESS IT OCCURRED ON
DECELERATION.
Use the following Supplemental information for 3.0L 4V Duratec Engines, in the Taurus/Sable, and
Lincoln LS.
1. Use the following conditions for the test described below:
^ Transmission in park
^ Engine temperature should be at least 190° F (88°C)
^ All accessories should be off steering wheel in the center position
^ EGVR and EVAPDUTY CYCLE at zero, if the vehicle has an EGR system
^ Short and long term fuel trims less than 15%
^ At stabilized engine speed (RPM) and temperature (hot idle) per the Powertrain Control Emission
Diagnostics (PC/ED) manual, verify the IAC duty cycle is within reference values called out in the
chart in this TSB.
NOTE
IT IS USUAL TO SEE THE IAC DUTY CYCLE VARY BY 1% TO 2% OVER SEVERAL MINUTES.
If the Duty Cycle is out of specification, proceed with the following steps:
1. Ensure that there is no purge flow.
2. Verify PCM harness integrity by performing a wiggle test on the harness while the engine is
running and observe the IAC duty cycle and engine performance. Should abnormalities be
observed, repair the harness as required.
3. For an IAC duty cycle high concern, unplug and plug in the IAC power connector several times.
If the duty cycle remains high, replace IAC valve.
4. For an IAC duty cycle low concern, there may be an intake air leak. See the below IAC
diagnostic service tip for DTC 1506 and other high idle concerns.
Use the following Supplemental Information for the 3.9L Lincoln LS and Thunderbird.
1. Use the following conditions for the test described below:
^ Transmission in park

^ Engine idle at approximately 650 RPM
^ Engine temperature should be at least 190° F (88° C)
^ All accessories and the engine cooling fan should be off
^ Steering wheel in the center position
^ EGRVR and EVAPDUTY CYCLE are zero
^ Short and long term fuel trims less than 15%
NOTE
IT IS USUAL TO SEE THE IAC DUTY CYCLE VARY BY 1% TO 2% OVER SEVERAL MINUTES.
NOTE
IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO CHECK THE IAC DUTY CYCLE WHEN THE RPM IS AT 650
RPM. EVEN 700 RPM IS TOO HIGH FOR CHECKING the IAC VALVE DUTY CYCLE UNDER
THESE CONDITIONS. IF THE RPM IS OVER 650 RPM, MOMENTARILY OPENING AND
CLOSING THE THROTTLE AND A SHORT EQUILIBRATION TIME WILL LOWER THE RPM.
At stabilized engine speed and temperature, verify that the IAC duty cycle is between 27-36% with
no purge flow (EVAPV duty cycle is 0%).
If the Duty Cycle is out of specification, proceed with the following steps:
1. Ensure there is no purge flow.
2. Verify PCM harness integrity by performing a wiggle test on the harness while the engine is
running and observe the IAC duty cycle and engine performance. Should abnormalities be
observed, repair the harness as required.
3. For an IAC duty cycle high concern, unplug and plug in the IAC power connector several times.
If the duty cycle remains high, replace IAC valve.
4. For an IAC duty cycle low concern, there may be an intake air leak. See the below IAC
diagnostic service tip for DTC 1506 and other high idle concerns.
NOTE
IF THE ORIGINAL IAC VALVE WAS WITHIN DUTY CYCLE SPECIFICATION OR THE DUTY
CYCLE REMAINS OUT OF SPECIFICATIONS AFTER IAC VALVE REPLACEMENT FURTHER
DIAGNOSTICS ARE REQUIRED TO ADDRESS THE CUSTOMER CONCERN.
Use the following Supplemental Information for 4.0L SOHC Engines In the Ranger, Explorer,
Mountaineer, Explorer Sport and Explorer Sport Trac.
If no DTC's present check the following items in this order before examining the IAC valve:
^ BARO Hz reading - Refer to Barometric Pressure Chart listed in this TSB
^ Battery and fuse box power lead
^ Ground wire attachments
^ Wiring (wiggle test)
^ PCM voltage
^ Vacuum leaks
Examine AC valve under these conditions:
^ PCM updated to the latest available calibration
^ Transmission in park
^ Warm stabilized vehicle with engine temperature at least 190° F (88° C)
^ All accessories and cooling fan sh6uld be off

^ Steering wheel in the center position
^ EGVR and EVAPDC at zero, if the vehicle has an EGR system
^ Short and long term fuel trims (less than 15)
Perform the following steps in order:
1. Using either NGS or WDS bring up the following PIDS: IACTRIM, IACKAM2, IACKAM3.
2. Allow vehicle to idle until the IACTRIM PID is 0.
NOTE
IACTRIM ALWAYS TRIES TO GO TO 0. WHEN MOVING TOWARDS 0, THE IACKAM2 PID
SHOULD BE CHANGING. IF IACKAM3 IS CHANGING, THEN THE AIR CONDITIONING
SHOULD BE TURNED OFF.
3. If IACKAM2 is between -0.35 and +0.35 with IACTRIM=0, then the valve is operating properly at
idle. The remainder of this TSB will help diagnose true root cause.
4. If IACKAM2 is not between -0.35 and +0.35, it is highly likely that the engine idle system (to
include the throttle body and air intake system) -is not operating properly.
NOTE
FOR ALL VEHICLES PLEASE RECORD THE OBSERVED IAC DUTY CYCLE AND ENGINE RPM
IN THE WARRANTY CLAIMS COMMENTS FOR THIS DIAGNOSTIC.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - DTC 1506 (IAC Over Speed Error) and other High Idle Concerns:
^ There are two primary causes of high idle:
1. Damaged IAC valves and
2. Vacuum leaks
^ AC valves can be damaged from engine induction backfires. Many times the customer may not
notice the induction backfire but will notice the high idle afterwards. Indications of valve damage
can be a shiny, almost polished appearance in the interior of the valve and a dislocated

Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Customer Interest for Auxiliary Air Valve (Idle Speed): > 03-3-5 >
Feb > 03 > Engine Controls - No Start/Hard Start/Rough Idle > Page 4217
pintle. An IAC valve damaged by backfire should be replaced. Refer to Figure 1.
^ Inspect PCV system for leaks especially looking for cracks along any rubber elbow joints; also
verify that the correct PCV valve is installed.
^ Inspect for vacuum hoses loose or disconnected from intended ports and connections. Induction
backfire can loosen or disconnect vacuum hoses.
^ Two indicators can help you identify if a vacuum leak is present, even if the engine RPM appear
normal in the service bay. If the duty cycle is below specification that is indicative that the engine is
receiving too much air (from a vacuum leak) and the PCM is ordering the valve to close up to
restrict flow. Another indication is fuel trim. Record the long term and short term fuel trim PIDS
(LONGFT1, LONGFT2, SHORTFT1, etc.), if short term fuel trims are high (above specification) this
is a possible indication of a vacuum leak, making the engine run lean, and the PCM is attempting to
compensate.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - DTC 1507 (IAC Under Speed Error) and Other Low Idle
Concerns:
^ An under speed error may not necessarily be a fault with the IAC valve. A large friction load on
the engine or obstruction in the air intake system could also reduce the engine RPMs.
^ There are four possible sources of friction load that can contribute to under speed error or low
idle concerns.
1. Power Steering Load
2. Air Conditioning Load
3. Electrical Load
4. Automatic Transmission Torque Converter Load
EAC Diagnostic Service Tips - Rough Idle
Concerns:
^ Rough idle concerns are often a result of a lean running condition
^ Another possible cause is contamination build up on the MAF sensor
EAC Diagnostic Service Tips - Engine Hard Start/Engine Crank-No Start
^ While performing diagnostics, the technician should ensure that the fuel system is working
correctly for all engines with hard start/crank no-start complaints.
^ When diagnosing a mechanical return less fuel system, the following correction to the PC/ED
pinpoint HC (4) diagnostic procedure should be used when performing the KEOE fuel pressure
test:
^ Perform the KOEO fuel pressure test as specific in the PC/ED manual.
^ The fuel pressure should drop off no more than 10 psi from maximum pressure (no lower than 55
psi for a 65 psi max system or no lower than 45 psi for a 55 psi max system) within 5 minutes of the
start of the test.
^ The fuel pressure should drop off to no less than 30 psi within 30 minutes of the start of the test.
^ For greatest accuracy, the service technician should read the fuel pressure as soon as possible
after pump shut off, no more than 5 minutes after the start of the test.
NOTE
RETURNABLE AND ELECTRONIC RETURN LESS SYSTEMS SHOULD ALSO BE DIAGNOSED
USING THE PROCEDURES LISTED FOR THEM IN PINPOINT TEST HC.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - High Idle RPM at Start Up:
^ Most engines will have a temporary high idle at engine start up to allow for catalyst light off. If
DTC 1506 is not present, this indicates that there is no fault present with the IAC.
^ A vehicle with very low odometer miles, may exhibit a higher than normal temporary startup fast
idle (1600-2500 RPM that decreases slowly). No

Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Customer Interest for Auxiliary Air Valve (Idle Speed): > 03-3-5 >
Feb > 03 > Engine Controls - No Start/Hard Start/Rough Idle > Page 4218
repairs should be attempted because this is a normal temporary PCM calibration strategy to
prevent spark plug fouling during plant/transportation operation. The calibration will permanently
revert to its normal strategy after the PCM has seen its first 4 miles of continuous drive cycle. A
brand new vehicle may accumulate some mileage without turning this strategy off if the drive cycle
has been below 4 miles at a time.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - EAC Valve Noise Issues
For IAC valve noise concerns check for obstructed or potentially damaged IAC valve from backfire.

ON SOME NEWER MODEL YEAR VEHICLES THE REACTION SPEED OF THE EAC VALVE IS
FAST ENOUGH THAT IT MIGHT MAKE A "POPPING" SOUND AS IT REACTS TO A LARGE
IDLE LOAD. THIS IS A NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC AND NO ATTEMPTS SHOULD BE MADE
IN AN EFFORT TO MODIFY THE PERFORMANCE OF THE IAC VALVE. IF POSSIBLE,
COMPARE AGAINST A LIKE VEHICLE.
NOTE
REMEMBER THAT MOST WEATHER SERVICES REPORT A LOCAL BAROMETRIC
PRESSURE THAT HAS BEEN CORRECTED TO SEA LEVEL. THE BARO PID, ON THE OTHER
HAND, REPORTS THE ACTUAL BAROMETRIC PRESSURE FOR THE ALTITUDE THE
VEHICLE IS BEING OPERATED IN. LOCAL WEATHER CONDITIONS (HIGH AND LOW
PRESSURE AREAS) WILL CHANGE THE LOCAL BAROMETRIC PRESSURE BY SEVERAL
INCHES OF MERCURY (+/- 3 Hz, +/-1 in.Hg.).
NOTE
BARO IS UPDATED ONLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS AT HIGH THROTTLE OPENINGS.
THEREFORE, A VEHICLE, WHICH IS DRIVEN DOWN FROM A HIGHER ALTITUDE MAY NOT
HAVE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO UPDATE THE BARO VALUE IN KAM. IF YOU ARE NOT
CONFIDENT THAT BARO HAS BEEN UPDATED, PERFORM THREE OR FOUR HEAVY,
SUSTAINED ACCELERATIONS AT GREATER THAN HALF-THROTTLE TO ALLOW BARO TO
UPDATE.

CLOSING THE THROTTLE AND A SHORT EQUILIBRATION TIME WILL LOWER THE RPM.
At stabilized engine speed and temperature, verify that the IAC duty cycle is between 27-36% with
no purge flow (EVAPV duty cycle is 0%).
If the Duty Cycle is out of specification, proceed with the following steps:
1. Ensure there is no purge flow.
2. Verify PCM harness integrity by performing a wiggle test on the harness while the engine is
running and observe the IAC duty cycle and engine performance. Should abnormalities be
observed, repair the harness as required.
3. For an IAC duty cycle high concern, unplug and plug in the IAC power connector several times.
If the duty cycle remains high, replace IAC valve.
4. For an IAC duty cycle low concern, there may be an intake air leak. See the below IAC
diagnostic service tip for DTC 1506 and other high idle concerns.
NOTE
IF THE ORIGINAL IAC VALVE WAS WITHIN DUTY CYCLE SPECIFICATION OR THE DUTY
CYCLE REMAINS OUT OF SPECIFICATIONS AFTER IAC VALVE REPLACEMENT FURTHER
DIAGNOSTICS ARE REQUIRED TO ADDRESS THE CUSTOMER CONCERN.
Use the following Supplemental Information for 4.0L SOHC Engines In the Ranger, Explorer,
Mountaineer, Explorer Sport and Explorer Sport Trac.
If no DTC's present check the following items in this order before examining the IAC valve:
^ BARO Hz reading - Refer to Barometric Pressure Chart listed in this TSB
^ Battery and fuse box power lead
^ Ground wire attachments
^ Wiring (wiggle test)
^ PCM voltage
^ Vacuum leaks
Examine AC valve under these conditions:
^ PCM updated to the latest available calibration
^ Transmission in park
^ Warm stabilized vehicle with engine temperature at least 190° F (88° C)
^ All accessories and cooling fan sh6uld be off

^ Steering wheel in the center position
^ EGVR and EVAPDC at zero, if the vehicle has an EGR system
^ Short and long term fuel trims (less than 15)
Perform the following steps in order:
1. Using either NGS or WDS bring up the following PIDS: IACTRIM, IACKAM2, IACKAM3.
2. Allow vehicle to idle until the IACTRIM PID is 0.
NOTE
IACTRIM ALWAYS TRIES TO GO TO 0. WHEN MOVING TOWARDS 0, THE IACKAM2 PID
SHOULD BE CHANGING. IF IACKAM3 IS CHANGING, THEN THE AIR CONDITIONING
SHOULD BE TURNED OFF.
3. If IACKAM2 is between -0.35 and +0.35 with IACTRIM=0, then the valve is operating properly at
idle. The remainder of this TSB will help diagnose true root cause.
4. If IACKAM2 is not between -0.35 and +0.35, it is highly likely that the engine idle system (to
include the throttle body and air intake system) -is not operating properly.
NOTE
FOR ALL VEHICLES PLEASE RECORD THE OBSERVED IAC DUTY CYCLE AND ENGINE RPM
IN THE WARRANTY CLAIMS COMMENTS FOR THIS DIAGNOSTIC.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - DTC 1506 (IAC Over Speed Error) and other High Idle Concerns:
^ There are two primary causes of high idle:
1. Damaged IAC valves and
2. Vacuum leaks
^ AC valves can be damaged from engine induction backfires. Many times the customer may not
notice the induction backfire but will notice the high idle afterwards. Indications of valve damage
can be a shiny, almost polished appearance in the interior of the valve and a dislocated
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Fuel Delivery and Air Induction > Auxiliary Air Valve (Idle Speed) >
Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > All Technical Service Bulletins for Auxiliary Air Valve (Idle Speed): >
03-3-5 > Feb > 03 > Engine Controls - No Start/Hard Start/Rough Idle > Page 4229
pintle. An IAC valve damaged by backfire should be replaced. Refer to Figure 1.
^ Inspect PCV system for leaks especially looking for cracks along any rubber elbow joints; also
verify that the correct PCV valve is installed.
^ Inspect for vacuum hoses loose or disconnected from intended ports and connections. Induction
backfire can loosen or disconnect vacuum hoses.
^ Two indicators can help you identify if a vacuum leak is present, even if the engine RPM appear
normal in the service bay. If the duty cycle is below specification that is indicative that the engine is
receiving too much air (from a vacuum leak) and the PCM is ordering the valve to close up to
restrict flow. Another indication is fuel trim. Record the long term and short term fuel trim PIDS
(LONGFT1, LONGFT2, SHORTFT1, etc.), if short term fuel trims are high (above specification) this
is a possible indication of a vacuum leak, making the engine run lean, and the PCM is attempting to
compensate.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - DTC 1507 (IAC Under Speed Error) and Other Low Idle
Concerns:
^ An under speed error may not necessarily be a fault with the IAC valve. A large friction load on
the engine or obstruction in the air intake system could also reduce the engine RPMs.
^ There are four possible sources of friction load that can contribute to under speed error or low
idle concerns.
1. Power Steering Load
2. Air Conditioning Load
3. Electrical Load
4. Automatic Transmission Torque Converter Load
EAC Diagnostic Service Tips - Rough Idle
Concerns:
^ Rough idle concerns are often a result of a lean running condition
^ Another possible cause is contamination build up on the MAF sensor
EAC Diagnostic Service Tips - Engine Hard Start/Engine Crank-No Start
^ While performing diagnostics, the technician should ensure that the fuel system is working
correctly for all engines with hard start/crank no-start complaints.
^ When diagnosing a mechanical return less fuel system, the following correction to the PC/ED
pinpoint HC (4) diagnostic procedure should be used when performing the KEOE fuel pressure
test:
^ Perform the KOEO fuel pressure test as specific in the PC/ED manual.
^ The fuel pressure should drop off no more than 10 psi from maximum pressure (no lower than 55
psi for a 65 psi max system or no lower than 45 psi for a 55 psi max system) within 5 minutes of the
start of the test.
^ The fuel pressure should drop off to no less than 30 psi within 30 minutes of the start of the test.
^ For greatest accuracy, the service technician should read the fuel pressure as soon as possible
after pump shut off, no more than 5 minutes after the start of the test.
NOTE
RETURNABLE AND ELECTRONIC RETURN LESS SYSTEMS SHOULD ALSO BE DIAGNOSED
USING THE PROCEDURES LISTED FOR THEM IN PINPOINT TEST HC.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - High Idle RPM at Start Up:
^ Most engines will have a temporary high idle at engine start up to allow for catalyst light off. If
DTC 1506 is not present, this indicates that there is no fault present with the IAC.
^ A vehicle with very low odometer miles, may exhibit a higher than normal temporary startup fast
idle (1600-2500 RPM that decreases slowly). No

repairs should be attempted because this is a normal temporary PCM calibration strategy to
prevent spark plug fouling during plant/transportation operation. The calibration will permanently
revert to its normal strategy after the PCM has seen its first 4 miles of continuous drive cycle. A
brand new vehicle may accumulate some mileage without turning this strategy off if the drive cycle
has been below 4 miles at a time.
IAC Diagnostic Service Tips - EAC Valve Noise Issues
For IAC valve noise concerns check for obstructed or potentially damaged IAC valve from backfire.

ON SOME NEWER MODEL YEAR VEHICLES THE REACTION SPEED OF THE EAC VALVE IS
FAST ENOUGH THAT IT MIGHT MAKE A "POPPING" SOUND AS IT REACTS TO A LARGE
IDLE LOAD. THIS IS A NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC AND NO ATTEMPTS SHOULD BE MADE
IN AN EFFORT TO MODIFY THE PERFORMANCE OF THE IAC VALVE. IF POSSIBLE,
COMPARE AGAINST A LIKE VEHICLE.
NOTE
REMEMBER THAT MOST WEATHER SERVICES REPORT A LOCAL BAROMETRIC
PRESSURE THAT HAS BEEN CORRECTED TO SEA LEVEL. THE BARO PID, ON THE OTHER
HAND, REPORTS THE ACTUAL BAROMETRIC PRESSURE FOR THE ALTITUDE THE
VEHICLE IS BEING OPERATED IN. LOCAL WEATHER CONDITIONS (HIGH AND LOW
PRESSURE AREAS) WILL CHANGE THE LOCAL BAROMETRIC PRESSURE BY SEVERAL
INCHES OF MERCURY (+/- 3 Hz, +/-1 in.Hg.).
NOTE
BARO IS UPDATED ONLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS AT HIGH THROTTLE OPENINGS.
THEREFORE, A VEHICLE, WHICH IS DRIVEN DOWN FROM A HIGHER ALTITUDE MAY NOT
HAVE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO UPDATE THE BARO VALUE IN KAM. IF YOU ARE NOT
CONFIDENT THAT BARO HAS BEEN UPDATED, PERFORM THREE OR FOUR HEAVY,
SUSTAINED ACCELERATIONS AT GREATER THAN HALF-THROTTLE TO ALLOW BARO TO
UPDATE.

ASSEMBLY (9G683) (SEE FIGURE 3), OR EVAP CANISTER PURGE VALVE (9C915) AND/OR
EVAP CANISTER PURGE VALVE & BRACKET ASSEMBLY (9F933) (SEE FIGURE 2) WILL
PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE VALVE.
5. Install the EVAP Emission Test Port Adapter that is provided with the Rotunda's Smoke Machine
to EVAP Canister Purge Valve test port.
NOTE
SPECIAL PROCEDURES HAVE BEEN DESIGNATED FOR WINDSTAR, LS, THUNDERBIRD &
PZEV FOCUS BECAUSE THEY HAVE A CHECK VALVE THAT WILL PREVENT SMOKE FROM
ENTERING THE FILLER NECK.
6. Connect black smoke hose nozzle tip to the EVAP Emission Test Port Adapter. For all except
Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus Use NGS or WDS to close CVS. (CVS WILL REOPEN
AFTER NINE (9) MINUTES OF CONTINUOUS OPERATION).
7. For all except Windstar, LS, Thunderbird & PZEV Focus - Remove the fuel cap from the vehicle.
Depress remote starter button: Smoke will be introduced into the EVAP Emission System. Secure
the fuel cap once smoke is seen exiting from the fuel tank's neck area. For Windstar, LS,
Thunderbird & PZEV Focus, do not remove fuel cap. Depress starter button and introduce smoke to
system until it can be seen exiting the CVS (located by filler neck). Once smoke is seen, use NGS
or WDS to close CVS. (CVS WILL REOPEN AFTER NINE (9) MINUTES OF CONTINUOUS
OPERATION).
8. Press and release the remote starter button in intervals of approximately 15 seconds on and 15
seconds off. Use the halogen light provided with the Smoke Machine to look for smoke in the
engine compartment, EVAP hoses to EVAP Canister Purge Valve, CVS, carbon canister and area
around the fuel cap. Wiggle fuel vapor lines to check for leaks. Check for leaks in areas that are
difficult to access, such as connections on top of the tank where connections may be or inside
frame rails. Use the black light to ensure that there are no leaks. If a leak is detected, repair as
necessary. If the leak is not detected from the top, check under the bottom of vehicle. Inspect the
EVAP hoses running to the carbon canister, fuel filler neck, CVS, and EVAP Canister Purge Valve.
Go to LEAK VERIFICATION to verify any repair or if no leak is found.
LEAK VERIFICATION (METERED AIR SYSTEM)
1. Position the selector valve located on the Smoke Machine control panel to "METER".
2. Verify calibration of the flow meter by using the .020" calibrated leak orifice. To do this, insert air
supply hose (transparent hose) nozzle tip into appropriate EVAP System calibrated leak orifice
located on the front of the Smoke Machine panel.
3. TURN ON: Depress the remote starter button. Observe the position of the flow meter indicator
ball. Position the flow meter red pointer flag so it aligns with the measurement of the indicator ball.
Release the button and remove the air supply hose nozzle tip from the EVAP System calibrated
leak orifice.
NOTE
THIS FLOW METER CALIBRATION MEASUREMENT INDICATES THE VEHICLE PASS OR FAIL
CRITERIA BASED ON THE .020" EVAP SYSTEM LEAK STANDARD.

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

OPERATION).
8. Press and release the remote starter button in intervals of approximately 15 seconds on and 15
seconds off. Use the halogen light provided with the Smoke Machine to look for smoke in the
engine compartment, EVAP hoses to EVAP Canister Purge Valve, CVS, carbon canister and area
around the fuel cap. Wiggle fuel vapor lines to check for leaks. Check for leaks in areas that are
difficult to access, such as connections on top of the tank where connections may be or inside
frame rails. Use the black light to ensure that there are no leaks. If a leak is detected, repair as
necessary. If the leak is not detected from the top, check under the bottom of vehicle. Inspect the
EVAP hoses running to the carbon canister, fuel filler neck, CVS, and EVAP Canister Purge Valve.
Go to LEAK VERIFICATION to verify any repair or if no leak is found.
LEAK VERIFICATION (METERED AIR SYSTEM)
1. Position the selector valve located on the Smoke Machine control panel to "METER".
2. Verify calibration of the flow meter by using the .020" calibrated leak orifice. To do this, insert air
supply hose (transparent hose) nozzle tip into appropriate EVAP System calibrated leak orifice
located on the front of the Smoke Machine panel.
3. TURN ON: Depress the remote starter button. Observe the position of the flow meter indicator
ball. Position the flow meter red pointer flag so it aligns with the measurement of the indicator ball.
Release the button and remove the air supply hose nozzle tip from the EVAP System calibrated
leak orifice.
NOTE
THIS FLOW METER CALIBRATION MEASUREMENT INDICATES THE VEHICLE PASS OR FAIL
CRITERIA BASED ON THE .020" EVAP SYSTEM LEAK STANDARD.

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

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

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

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

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

Electronic Returnless Fuel Pump Module (FPM)
The fuel pump (FP) module (Figure 66), (Figure 67) and (Figure 68) is a device that contains the
fuel pump and sender assembly. 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 Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
Engine Fuel Temperature Sensor
Engine Fuel Temperature (EFT) Sensor
The Engine Fuel Temperature (EFT) sensor (Figure 28) is a thermistor device in which resistance
changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature
increases, and increases as temperature decreases. The varying resistance affects the voltage
drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the PCM corresponding to
temperature.
Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a
voltage divider network so that varying the resistance of the passive sensor causes a variation in
total current flow.
Voltage that is dropped across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistor determines the
voltage signal at the PCM. This voltage signal is equal to the reference voltage minus the voltage
drop across the fixed resistor.
The EFT sensor measures the temperature of the fuel near the fuel injectors. This signal is used by
the PCM to adjust the fuel injector pulse width and meter fuel to each engine combustion cylinder

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4632
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Transmission Control Systems > Actuators and Solenoids Transmission and Drivetrain > Actuators and Solenoids - A/T > Pressure Regulating Solenoid, A/T > Component
Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4635
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation
Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) Solenoid
The electronic pressure control (EPC) solenoid is a variable force style (VFS) solenoid. The VFS
type solenoid is an electro-hydraulic actuator combining a solenoid and a regulating valve.
The powertrain control module (PCM) varies the current to the EPC solenoid.
This action causes the solenoid to regulate transmission line pressure and line modulator pressure.
This is done by producing resisting forces to the main regulator and line modulator circuits. These
two circuits control clutch application pressures.
The PCM has an adaptive learn strategy to electronically control the transmission which will
automatically adjust the shift feel. When the battery has been disconnected or a new battery
installed, certain transmission operating parameters may be lost. The PCM must relearn these
parameters. During this learning process you may experience slightly firm shifts, delayed, or early
shifts. This operation is considered normal and will not affect the function of the transmission.
Normal operation will return once these parameters are stored by the PCM.

Shift Solenoid: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4675
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > Transmission Control Systems > Actuators and Solenoids Transmission and Drivetrain > Actuators and Solenoids - A/T > Shift Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams >
Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4678
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4712
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4714
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
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 4715
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

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

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4783
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 4785
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Powertrain Management > 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 4786
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation
Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor
The transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor is a thermistor-type sensor that varies a reference
voltage signal. The resistance in the TFT varies with temperature. The powertrain control module
(PCM) monitors the voltage signal across the TFT, and uses this information to determine the
transmission fluid temperature.
The TFT is located on the main control body wiring harness assembly.
The PCM uses the TFT signal to help determine shift scheduling, torque converter clutch operation
and electronic pressure control (EPC).

FORD: 2001-2003 Explorer Sport 2001-2005 Explorer Sport Trac
This article supersedes TSB 04-2-7 to update the vehicle model years and service procedure.
ISSUE Some 2001-2005 Explorer Sport Trac and 2001-2003 Explorer Sport vehicles may exhibit a
steering wheel shudder during low-speed turning maneuvers. This may be due to the interaction
between the tire and the road surface, which is amplified through the steering system. The
condition will vary according to ambient temperature, road surface friction, and steering wheel
turning speed.
ACTION As design changes have taken place in the steering system, it is important to note the
VEHICLE BUILD DATE and follow the appropriate steps outlined in the following Service
Procedure. Perform a thorough evacuation of air from the power steering system after
replacement/installation of parts.
SERVICE PROCEDURE

This article supersedes TSB 01-25-01 to update the part numbers and the vehicle coverage.
ISSUE
Some 2001-2004 Explorer Sport Trac and 2001-2003 Explorer Sport vehicles may exhibit a
steering wheel shudder during low-speed turning maneuvers. This may be due to the interaction
between the tire and the road surface, which is amplified by the steering system. The condition will
vary according to ambient temperature, road surface friction, and steering wheel turning speed.
ACTION
As design changes have taken place in the steering system, it is important to note the vehicle build
date and follow the appropriate steps outlined in the following Service Procedure. Per the vehicle
build date it may be necessary to replace the power steering pump and cooler, and install a no-hole
check valve in the steering gear. Perform a thorough evacuation of air from the power steering
system after replacement/installation of parts and reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
to the latest level calibration.
NOTE
THE STEERING SHUDDER WILL NOT BE CORRECTED UNLESS THE SYSTEM IS PURGED
OF AIR WITH A VACUUM AT THE RESERVOIR. CORRECTLY FOLLOWING THE EVACUATION
PROCEDURE DETAILED BELOW WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TIME NEEDED TO
CORRECT THE SHUDDER. THE SHUDDER MAY STILL BE PRESENT AFTER REPLACEMENT
OF THE PARTS IF THE EVACUATION PROCEDURE IS NOT PROPERLY FOLLOWED.
NOTE
PRIOR TO PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE, PERFORM THE DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DESCRIBED IN THE APPROPRIATE WORKSHOP MANUAL, SECTION 211-00 TO CONFIRM
THAT ALL OTHER SYSTEM ISSUES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
VEHICLES BUILT PRIOR TO APRIL 18, 2001
1. Replace the Power Steering Pump with a new high displacement pump Part Number
3L2Z-3A674-CARM. BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION
COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND
NOISE. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section 211-02 for replacement instructions.
NOTE
DO NOT FILL, PURGE, OR LEAK CHECK THE SYSTEM AT THIS POINT SINCE THE
STEERING GEAR CHECK VALVE AND COOLER MUST ALSO BE REPLACED.
2. Replace the Cooler Assembly with service part F77Z-30746-GA. (This new cooler has a larger
fin pack to maintain lower fluid temperatures).
BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. The existing
cooler return line (hose attached to the gear outlet port) will be reused to ease installation. Attach a
clamp to the cooler return line to reduce fluid spillage during removal of the cooler. Disconnect the
existing cooler fin pack from the cooler return line by releasing the constant tension clamp. Remove
the return line on the new cooler to be installed and connect this new fin pack assembly to the
existing return line. Re-secure the constant tension clamp. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section

3. Disconnect the power steering pressure line from the gear pressure port to allow replacement of
the check valve. DO NOT ATTACH A CLAMP. TO THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE
AS IT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE TUNING CABLE INSIDE THE HOSE. Attach a clamp to the
COOLER RETURN LINE to reduce fluid flow out of the gear during removal of the pressure line.
Loosen the nut securing the power steering pressure hose to the gear inlet and detach it from the
gear. REPLACE THE 0-RING (388897-S) ON THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE NUT.
USE ROTUNDA TOOL-211-D-027 OR EQUIVALENT TO SIZE THE 0-RING. ANY OTHER
METHOD OF INSTALLATION WILL DEFORM IT, MAKING IT INEFFECTIVE.
4. Replace the check valve located in the steering gear pressure side inlet port with a No-Hole
Check Valve (E60Z-3N603-A). This new check valve has a spring-loaded closure allowing flow in
only one direction, without the bleeder hole that is present in the current check valve. CLEAN ALL
AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN
SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Using a pick tool, remove the clip retaining the check
valve in the gear inlet. Then, using the pick, remove the check valve from the port. Install the
No-Hole Check Valve WITH THE OPEN SIDE DOWNWARD into the pressure side inlet of gear

5. Fill the power steering reservoir with MERCON' Multi-Purpose (ATF) Transmission Fluid
(XT-2-QDX) or equivalent.
6. WITH THE ENGINE OFF, apply 25 inches of vacuum to the reservoir opening. Start the engine
and let idle for 1 minute. DO NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. If power steering reservoir
becomes low, remove the vacuum and refill.
7. WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING and NO VACUUM APPLIED TO THE SYSTEM, turn the
steering wheel to the left and then to the right end-of-travel stops, KNOCKING AGAINST EACH
STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
8. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
9. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
10. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more
thorough air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and
stand outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching
the reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.
NOTE
THIS SHOULD NOT BE OVERDONE OR IT COULD DAMAGE THE PUMP.

ISSUE
Some vehicles may exhibit excessive sulfur smell from the exhaust under certain drive modes. This
may be due to the highly active state of a new catalyst, calibration factors, underbody catalyst
temperature, and amount of sulfur present in the fuel.
ACTION
Identify year, model, and build date to identify appropriate service procedure. For applications that
require installing exhaust wrap, use good quality stainless steel worm-drive hose clamps for best
longevity, similar to what would commonly be used for exhaust heat shield rattle issues.

DRIVE SEQUENCE AFTER REPAIRS COMPLETED
Check engine oil and coolant levels. Verify both are at specified levels before driving vehicle.
Perform highway driving at normal highway speeds for 30 miles. The optimum engine speed for
this drive sequence is 3,000 to 4,500 rpm, and this can be accomplished by manually selecting the
transmission gear state. The goal of the drive procedure is to maintain a constant high temperature
level in the exhaust system through the use of increased engine speed. The combination of
increased temperature and driving will provide a sulfur cleaning environment for the catalyst
system.
CONTRIBUTING FACTORS TO SULFUR SMELL
Factors outside of engineering control may lead to a sulfur odor. A large contributing factor is the
amount of sulfur in the fuel. Replacing a Catalytic Converter multiple times will not alleviate the
sulfur odor. Several catalyst replacements on the same vehicle may actually increase customer
sensitivity to an exhaust odor concern. Based on some driving habits the converter does not get
hot enough to burn out stored sulfur residue and can produce a sulfur odor.
For example:
^ Extended Idle - Increase sulfur odor
^ Stop and go driving - Increase sulfur odor
^ Trailer Towing - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Heavy Loads - Decrease sulfur odor Short trips - Increase sulfur odor
^ Abrupt accel/decel - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Hotter driving conditions - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Hilly terrain - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Canceling Overdrive - Decrease sulfur odor
Catalysts with 5,000-10,000 Miles (8,000-16,000 kilometers) are likely to have a sulfur smell due to
the highly active state of the new catalyst. Refer to symptom chart # 22 of PCED for appropriate
year. Additives in fuels (Ethanol, Methanol, ETC.) can cause sulfur odor, suggest using a different
fuel source. Geographic variations on sulfur odor intensity are possible due to different refineries
supplying fuel to different areas of the country. California regulated fuel will exhibit less sulfur odor.
Experiment with different fuel brands. Some contain more sulfur than others, which can lead to an
increase in sulfur odor from the converter. Sulfur odors are an aromatic phenomenon and do not
cause any durability or safety concerns with vehicle operation.
To summarize for the customer, explain that sulfur is in the fuel used and the catalyst system on
their vehicle as a result of the fuel and driving environment which creates a condition where sulfur
has been stored in their exhaust system. The service action performed allows the sulfur to pass
through the exhaust system and to clean the existing sulfur deposits. During the initial cleansing of
the catalyst it is expected that a sulfur odor may still be present, and this odor may change from the
"rotten egg smell" to that of a "burning match". The odor will cease with time.

a. Make sure WDS is docked or attached to vehicle battery supply.
b. Verify WDS software is at the latest release level.
3. If there is a communication error, attempt to communicate with a different diagnostic scan tool,
such as NGS, NGS+, VCM or another WDS.
NOTE
IF COMMUNICATION STILL CANNOT BE ESTABLISHED, VOLTAGE DROP PCM POWERS,
GROUNDS, AND CHECK VREF.
PCM REPLACEMENT - STANDARD
1. Open WDS vehicle session with original PCM installed in vehicle. If the original PCM is not able
to communicate, to open a session, proceed to the Blank Path Programming procedure.
2. Install the new PCM.
NOTE
IF WDS NEEDS TO BE USED ON A DIFFERENT VEHICLE WHILE THE NEW PCM IS BEING
INSTALLED, PLACE THE VEHICLE SESSION ON "HOLD" FOR USE LATER.
3. Attempt to start the vehicle.
4. Run KOEO Self Test to check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) in PCM.
5. Check for DTC P0602/P0605/P1639.
a. If DTC P0602/P0605/P1639 is present then Programmable Module Installation (PMI) procedure
must be performed. Use the WDS session opened at Step 1.
b. If DTC P0602/P0605/P1639 is not present, then verify Programmable Parameters are properly
set such as tire size, axle ratio, etc.
6. Check for DTC B2900.
a. If DTC B2900 is present, perform PMI on the ABS module. Do Not replace ABS module for this
procedure when directed. You may be prompted to enter the 9 lines of PCM As-Built data during
this procedure.
b. If DTC B2900 is not present proceed to Step 7.
7. Diagnose all other DTCs following normal diagnostic procedures.

Replacement
1. Verify all cables are properly connected.
2. Verify vehicle battery is at proper charge level.
3. Verify scan tool battery is at proper charge level.
4. Attempt reprogramming procedure again.
5. If reprogramming still does not complete properly, save current session, reboot WDS, open
previous session, and attempt reprogramming again.
6. If reprogramming still does not complete or you are now unable to communicate with PCM,
proceed to the Blank Path Programming procedure.
BLANK PATH PROGRAMMING - Existing PCM Reprogramming Or PCM Replacement
Perform this procedure prior to PCM replacement if a vehicle comes in with a PCM that will not
communicate, or if steps earlier in this TSB directed you to this procedure.
1. Verify powers and grounds to PCM by loading and voltage drop testing circuits.

FORD: 2001-2003 EXPLORER SPORT 2001-2004 EXPLORER SPORT TRAC
This article supersedes TSB 01-25-01 to update the part numbers and the vehicle coverage.
ISSUE
Some 2001-2004 Explorer Sport Trac and 2001-2003 Explorer Sport vehicles may exhibit a
steering wheel shudder during low-speed turning maneuvers. This may be due to the interaction
between the tire and the road surface, which is amplified by the steering system. The condition will
vary according to ambient temperature, road surface friction, and steering wheel turning speed.
ACTION
As design changes have taken place in the steering system, it is important to note the vehicle build
date and follow the appropriate steps outlined in the following Service Procedure. Per the vehicle
build date it may be necessary to replace the power steering pump and cooler, and install a no-hole
check valve in the steering gear. Perform a thorough evacuation of air from the power steering
system after replacement/installation of parts and reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
to the latest level calibration.
NOTE
THE STEERING SHUDDER WILL NOT BE CORRECTED UNLESS THE SYSTEM IS PURGED
OF AIR WITH A VACUUM AT THE RESERVOIR. CORRECTLY FOLLOWING THE EVACUATION
PROCEDURE DETAILED BELOW WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TIME NEEDED TO
CORRECT THE SHUDDER. THE SHUDDER MAY STILL BE PRESENT AFTER REPLACEMENT
OF THE PARTS IF THE EVACUATION PROCEDURE IS NOT PROPERLY FOLLOWED.
NOTE
PRIOR TO PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE, PERFORM THE DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DESCRIBED IN THE APPROPRIATE WORKSHOP MANUAL, SECTION 211-00 TO CONFIRM
THAT ALL OTHER SYSTEM ISSUES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
VEHICLES BUILT PRIOR TO APRIL 18, 2001
1. Replace the Power Steering Pump with a new high displacement pump Part Number
3L2Z-3A674-CARM. BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION
COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND
NOISE. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section 211-02 for replacement instructions.
NOTE
DO NOT FILL, PURGE, OR LEAK CHECK THE SYSTEM AT THIS POINT SINCE THE
STEERING GEAR CHECK VALVE AND COOLER MUST ALSO BE REPLACED.
2. Replace the Cooler Assembly with service part F77Z-30746-GA. (This new cooler has a larger
fin pack to maintain lower fluid temperatures).
BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. The existing
cooler return line (hose attached to the gear outlet port) will be reused to ease installation. Attach a
clamp to the cooler return line to reduce fluid spillage during removal of the cooler. Disconnect the
existing cooler fin pack from the cooler return line by releasing the constant tension clamp. Remove
the return line on the new cooler to be installed and connect this new fin pack assembly to the
existing return line. Re-secure the constant tension clamp. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section
211-02 for complete replacement instructions.

03-19-12 > Sep > 03 > Steering - Shudder on Low Speed Turns or When Stopped > Page 4869
3. Disconnect the power steering pressure line from the gear pressure port to allow replacement of
the check valve. DO NOT ATTACH A CLAMP. TO THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE
AS IT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE TUNING CABLE INSIDE THE HOSE. Attach a clamp to the
COOLER RETURN LINE to reduce fluid flow out of the gear during removal of the pressure line.
Loosen the nut securing the power steering pressure hose to the gear inlet and detach it from the
gear. REPLACE THE 0-RING (388897-S) ON THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE NUT.
USE ROTUNDA TOOL-211-D-027 OR EQUIVALENT TO SIZE THE 0-RING. ANY OTHER
METHOD OF INSTALLATION WILL DEFORM IT, MAKING IT INEFFECTIVE.
4. Replace the check valve located in the steering gear pressure side inlet port with a No-Hole
Check Valve (E60Z-3N603-A). This new check valve has a spring-loaded closure allowing flow in
only one direction, without the bleeder hole that is present in the current check valve. CLEAN ALL
AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN
SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Using a pick tool, remove the clip retaining the check
valve in the gear inlet. Then, using the pick, remove the check valve from the port. Install the
No-Hole Check Valve WITH THE OPEN SIDE DOWNWARD into the pressure side inlet of gear
(Figure 1 and Figure 2). Reattach the power steering pressure hose to the inlet of the steering
gear.

5. Fill the power steering reservoir with MERCON' Multi-Purpose (ATF) Transmission Fluid
(XT-2-QDX) or equivalent.
6. WITH THE ENGINE OFF, apply 25 inches of vacuum to the reservoir opening. Start the engine
and let idle for 1 minute. DO NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. If power steering reservoir
becomes low, remove the vacuum and refill.
7. WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING and NO VACUUM APPLIED TO THE SYSTEM, turn the
steering wheel to the left and then to the right end-of-travel stops, KNOCKING AGAINST EACH
STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
8. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
9. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
10. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more
thorough air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and
stand outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching
the reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.
NOTE
THIS SHOULD NOT BE OVERDONE OR IT COULD DAMAGE THE PUMP.
11. Reprogram the PCM to the latest level available.
12. Test drive to verify repair.

DRIVE SEQUENCE AFTER REPAIRS COMPLETED
Check engine oil and coolant levels. Verify both are at specified levels before driving vehicle.
Perform highway driving at normal highway speeds for 30 miles. The optimum engine speed for
this drive sequence is 3,000 to 4,500 rpm, and this can be accomplished by manually selecting the
transmission gear state. The goal of the drive procedure is to maintain a constant high temperature
level in the exhaust system through the use of increased engine speed. The combination of
increased temperature and driving will provide a sulfur cleaning environment for the catalyst
system.
CONTRIBUTING FACTORS TO SULFUR SMELL
Factors outside of engineering control may lead to a sulfur odor. A large contributing factor is the
amount of sulfur in the fuel. Replacing a Catalytic Converter multiple times will not alleviate the
sulfur odor. Several catalyst replacements on the same vehicle may actually increase customer
sensitivity to an exhaust odor concern. Based on some driving habits the converter does not get
hot enough to burn out stored sulfur residue and can produce a sulfur odor.
For example:
^ Extended Idle - Increase sulfur odor
^ Stop and go driving - Increase sulfur odor
^ Trailer Towing - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Heavy Loads - Decrease sulfur odor Short trips - Increase sulfur odor
^ Abrupt accel/decel - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Hotter driving conditions - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Hilly terrain - Decrease sulfur odor
^ Canceling Overdrive - Decrease sulfur odor
Catalysts with 5,000-10,000 Miles (8,000-16,000 kilometers) are likely to have a sulfur smell due to
the highly active state of the new catalyst. Refer to symptom chart # 22 of PCED for appropriate
year. Additives in fuels (Ethanol, Methanol, ETC.) can cause sulfur odor, suggest using a different
fuel source. Geographic variations on sulfur odor intensity are possible due to different refineries
supplying fuel to different areas of the country. California regulated fuel will exhibit less sulfur odor.
Experiment with different fuel brands. Some contain more sulfur than others, which can lead to an
increase in sulfur odor from the converter. Sulfur odors are an aromatic phenomenon and do not
cause any durability or safety concerns with vehicle operation.
To summarize for the customer, explain that sulfur is in the fuel used and the catalyst system on
their vehicle as a result of the fuel and driving environment which creates a condition where sulfur
has been stored in their exhaust system. The service action performed allows the sulfur to pass
through the exhaust system and to clean the existing sulfur deposits. During the initial cleansing of
the catalyst it is expected that a sulfur odor may still be present, and this odor may change from the
"rotten egg smell" to that of a "burning match". The odor will cease with time.

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Information and Instructions > Page 4912
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.

Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Actuators and Solenoids - Transmission and Drivetrain >
Actuators and Solenoids - A/T > Pressure Regulating Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 4915
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation
Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) Solenoid
The electronic pressure control (EPC) solenoid is a variable force style (VFS) solenoid. The VFS
type solenoid is an electro-hydraulic actuator combining a solenoid and a regulating valve.
The powertrain control module (PCM) varies the current to the EPC solenoid.
This action causes the solenoid to regulate transmission line pressure and line modulator pressure.
This is done by producing resisting forces to the main regulator and line modulator circuits. These
two circuits control clutch application pressures.
The PCM has an adaptive learn strategy to electronically control the transmission which will
automatically adjust the shift feel. When the battery has been disconnected or a new battery
installed, certain transmission operating parameters may be lost. The PCM must relearn these
parameters. During this learning process you may experience slightly firm shifts, delayed, or early
shifts. This operation is considered normal and will not affect the function of the transmission.
Normal operation will return once these parameters are stored by the PCM.

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Instructions > Page 4955
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.

Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to

Actuators and Solenoids - A/T > Shift Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and
Instructions > Page 4958
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Shift Solenoid: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Information and Instructions > Page 4992
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Information and Instructions > Page 4994
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
WARNINGS
^ Always wear safety glasses for eye protection.
^ Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires being under a vehicle.

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Page 5031
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Page 5033
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Actuators and Solenoids A/T > Pressure Regulating Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions >
Page 5034
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation
Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) Solenoid
The electronic pressure control (EPC) solenoid is a variable force style (VFS) solenoid. The VFS
type solenoid is an electro-hydraulic actuator combining a solenoid and a regulating valve.
The powertrain control module (PCM) varies the current to the EPC solenoid.
This action causes the solenoid to regulate transmission line pressure and line modulator pressure.
This is done by producing resisting forces to the main regulator and line modulator circuits. These
two circuits control clutch application pressures.
The PCM has an adaptive learn strategy to electronically control the transmission which will
automatically adjust the shift feel. When the battery has been disconnected or a new battery
installed, certain transmission operating parameters may be lost. The PCM must relearn these
parameters. During this learning process you may experience slightly firm shifts, delayed, or early
shifts. This operation is considered normal and will not affect the function of the transmission.
Normal operation will return once these parameters are stored by the PCM.

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Actuators and Solenoids A/T > Shift Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5074
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Actuators and Solenoids A/T > Shift Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5075
Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Actuators and Solenoids A/T > Shift Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5076
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Actuators and Solenoids A/T > Shift Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5077
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Shift Solenoid: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.

the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Actuators and Solenoids A/T > Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions
> Page 5114
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

With Dip Stick
Check Fluid Level and Condition
CAUTION: The vehicle should not be driven if the fluid level indicator shows the fluid below the Do
Not Drive mark or internal failure could result.
NOTE: Automatic transmission fluid expands when warmed. To obtain an accurate fluid level
check, drive the vehicle until warmed, approximately 30 km (18.75 miles). If the vehicle has been
operated for an extended period at high speeds, in city traffic, during hot weather or while pulling a
trailer. the vehicle should be turned off for about 30 minutes to allow the fluid to cool before
checking.
NOTE: The transmission fluid level should be checked at normal operating temperatures, 66 - 77
°C (150 - 170 °F), on a level surface. The normal operating temperature can be reached after
approximately 32 km (20 miles) of driving. However, you can check the fluid level without driving if
the outside temperature is above 10 °C (50 °F). When the vehicle has not been driven, and the
outside is above 10 °C (50 °F), the fluid level should be between the holes on the indicator. If the
transmission fluid is to be checked when the fluid is at room temperature, the fluid level indicator
could indicate that fluid should be added if the indicator is misread. If fluid is added at this time, an
overfill condition could result when the vehicle reaches operating temperature of 66 - 77 °C (150 170 °F).
1. Drive the vehicle 30 km (18.75 miles) or until the vehicle reaches normal operating
temperatures. 2. Park the vehicle on a level surface and apply the parking brake. 3. With the
parking brake applied and your foot on the brake pedal, start the engine and move the range
selector lever through all the gear ranges.
Allow sufficient time for each gear to engage.
4. Place the range selector lever in (P) park and leave the engine running. 5. Remove the fluid level
indicator and wipe it clean with a lint free cloth. 6. Install the fluid level indicator until it is fully
seated into the filler tube.
7. Remove the fluid level indicator and inspect the fluid level. The fluid level should be in the
designated area for normal and room temperature.
High Fluid Level
Fluid levels above the safe range may result in transmission failure. An overfill condition of
transmission fluid may cause shift or engagement concerns and possible damage. High fluid levels
can be caused by an overheating condition. A fluid level that is too high may cause the fluid to
become aerated due to the churning action of the rotating internal parts. This will cause erratic
control pressure, foaming, loss of fluid from the vent tube and possible transmission malfunction
and/or damage. If an overfill reading is indicated drain and refill the transmission.
Low Fluid Level
DO NOT DRIVE the vehicle if the fluid level is below the hole at the bottom of the fluid level
indicator or not on the fluid level indicator, and the outside temperatures are above 10 °C (50 °F). A
low fluid level could result in poor transmission engagement, slipping, malfunction and/or damage.
This could also indicate a leak in one of the transmission seals or gaskets.

Adding Fluid
CAUTION: The use of any other type of transmission fluid than specified could result in
transmission malfunction and/or damage. An overfill condition of transmission fluid may cause shift
or engagement concerns and possible damage.
Before adding fluid be sure that the correct type is being used. If fluid needs to be added, add fluid
in 0.25 L (1/2 pint) increments through the filler tube. Do not overfill the fluid.
Fluid Condition Check
1. Check the fluid level. 2. Observe the color and the odor. The color under normal circumstances
should be dark reddish, not brown or black. 3. Hold the fluid level indicator over a white facial tissue
and allow the fluid to drip onto the facial tissue and examine the stain. 4. If evidence of solid
material is found, the transmission fluid pan should be removed for further inspection. 5. If the stain
is a foamy pink color, this may indicate coolant in the transmission. The engine cooling system
should also be inspected at this time. 6. If fluid contamination or transmission failure is confirmed
by the sediment in the bottom of the transmission fluid pan, the transmission must be
disassembled and completely cleaned. This includes the torque converter and cooler lines.
7. Carry out diagnostic checks and adjustments.

Fluid - A/T: Service and Repair Check Fluid Level and Condition
Check Fluid Level and Condition
CAUTION: The vehicle should not be driven if the fluid level indicator shows the fluid below the Do
Not Drive mark or internal failure could result.
NOTE: Automatic transmission fluid expands when warmed. To obtain an accurate fluid level
check, drive the vehicle until warmed, approximately 30 km (18.75 miles). If the vehicle has been
operated for an extended period at high speeds, in city traffic, during hot weather or while pulling a
trailer. the vehicle should be turned off for about 30 minutes to allow the fluid to cool before
checking.
NOTE: The transmission fluid level should be checked at normal operating temperatures, 66 - 77
°C (150 - 170 °F), on a level surface. The normal operating temperature can be reached after
approximately 32 km (20 miles) of driving. However, you can check the fluid level without driving if
the outside temperature is above 10 °C (50 °F). When the vehicle has not been driven, and the
outside is above 10 °C (50 °F), the fluid level should be between the holes on the indicator. If the
transmission fluid is to be checked when the fluid is at room temperature, the fluid level indicator
could indicate that fluid should be added if the indicator is misread. If fluid is added at this time, an
overfill condition could result when the vehicle reaches operating temperature of 66 - 77 °C (150 170 °F).
1. Drive the vehicle 30 km (18.75 miles) or until the vehicle reaches normal operating
temperatures. 2. Park the vehicle on a level surface and apply the parking brake. 3. With the
parking brake applied and your foot on the brake pedal, start the engine and move the range
selector lever through all the gear ranges.
Allow sufficient time for each gear to engage.
4. Place the range selector lever in (P) park and leave the engine running. 5. Remove the fluid level
indicator and wipe it clean with a lint free cloth. 6. Install the fluid level indicator until it is fully
seated into the filler tube.
7. Remove the fluid level indicator and inspect the fluid level. The fluid level should be in the
designated area for normal and room temperature.
High Fluid Level
Fluid levels above the safe range may result in transmission failure. An overfill condition of
transmission fluid may cause shift or engagement concerns and possible damage. High fluid levels
can be caused by an overheating condition. A fluid level that is too high may cause the fluid to
become aerated due to the churning action of the rotating internal parts. This will cause erratic
control pressure, foaming, loss of fluid from the vent tube and possible transmission malfunction
and/or damage. If an overfill reading is indicated drain and refill the transmission.
Low Fluid Level
DO NOT DRIVE the vehicle if the fluid level is below the hole at the bottom of the fluid level
indicator or not on the fluid level indicator, and the outside temperatures are above 10 °C (50 °F). A
low fluid level could result in poor transmission engagement, slipping, malfunction and/or damage.
This could also indicate a leak in one of the transmission seals or gaskets.

ISSUE Some vehicles equipped with a 5R44E or 5R55E automatic transmission may require repair
of the transmission. This TSB is being published as informational only in order to avoid mix I match
of incorrect service parts which will cause a fluid leak. Beginning with 8/29/2006 production, the
5R44E or 5R55E automatic transmission will have a new transmission case, fluid pan, a
REUSABLE fluid pan gasket and new fluid pan screws.
ACTION Follow the Service Tips.
SERVICE TIPS
NOTE
DO NOT MIX AND MATCH PARTS OR LEAKAGE WILL OCCUR.
NOTE
THE NEW PAN GASKET IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE GASKET AND SEAL KIT. IT CAN ONLY BE
ORDERED SEPARATELY.
The 5R44E / 5R55E transmission pan gasket has been redesigned to be reusable if it is removed
for a non-leak related transmission service concern. The gasket should be inspected for damage
and cleaned, along with the mating surfaces, before reuse. The case and fluid pan rails have been
redesigned to properly mate with the new gasket to eliminate fluid leaks. The new case, pan, and
gasket maybe used to service past model transmissions from 1997.

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5357
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5359
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Pressure Regulating
Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5360
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation
Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) Solenoid
The electronic pressure control (EPC) solenoid is a variable force style (VFS) solenoid. The VFS
type solenoid is an electro-hydraulic actuator combining a solenoid and a regulating valve.
The powertrain control module (PCM) varies the current to the EPC solenoid.
This action causes the solenoid to regulate transmission line pressure and line modulator pressure.
This is done by producing resisting forces to the main regulator and line modulator circuits. These
two circuits control clutch application pressures.
The PCM has an adaptive learn strategy to electronically control the transmission which will
automatically adjust the shift feel. When the battery has been disconnected or a new battery
installed, certain transmission operating parameters may be lost. The PCM must relearn these
parameters. During this learning process you may experience slightly firm shifts, delayed, or early
shifts. This operation is considered normal and will not affect the function of the transmission.
Normal operation will return once these parameters are stored by the PCM.

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

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

> Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and
Instructions > Page 5438
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Instructions > Page 5440
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Sensors and Switches - A/T
> Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and
Instructions > Page 5441
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation
Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor
The transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor is a thermistor-type sensor that varies a reference
voltage signal. The resistance in the TFT varies with temperature. The powertrain control module
(PCM) monitors the voltage signal across the TFT, and uses this information to determine the
transmission fluid temperature.
The TFT is located on the main control body wiring harness assembly.
The PCM uses the TFT signal to help determine shift scheduling, torque converter clutch operation
and electronic pressure control (EPC).

Shift Solenoid: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Shift Solenoid, A/T >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5475
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Shift Solenoid, A/T >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5477
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Shift Solenoid, A/T >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5478
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Torque Converter Clutch
Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5540
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Torque Converter Clutch
Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5542
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Torque Converter Clutch
Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5543
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

ISSUE The number one cause for repeat transmission repairs is that contamination from the
transmission cooler system (lines and tank) will work their way back into the rebuilt or new
transmission. For this reason a new transmission cooler flusher has been released, "Turbo-Tank
Heated Cooler Line Flusher" Rotunda Tool number 22-00001.
ACTION The transmission cooling system (cooler and lines) MUST be flushed every time the
transmission is overhauled or replaced in order to minimize the likelihood of repeat repairs. The
use of this new "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line Flusher" (222-00001) is the most effective way to
remove contamination from its cooling system. Refer to the following Service Procedure and
Equipment instructions (supplied with the "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line Flusher").
SERVICE PROCEDURE
Prior methods of cooler flushing have not obtained the level of cooler cleaning and contaminant
removal that is required to prevent repeat repairs. The "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line Flusher"
uses heated Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) and a pulsating action to loosen system
contamination.
Previous equipment used solvents to clean & flush coolers, lines and torque-converters. There are
2 issues with this method:
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Transmission Cooler, A/T >
Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > A/T - Cooler Flushing Service Tips > Page 5573
^ Residual solvent contamination can cause damage to friction bonding materials within the
transmission (Clutches and Bands).
^ Lack of fluid heating and agitation prevents this method from completely removing contamination
from lines, in-radiator coolers and auxiliary coolers.
Aerosol Solvents should never be used for several reasons.
^ They do not provide the volume necessary to remove heavy contaminants.
^ They evaporate quickly and essentially leave contaminants in pockets, bends, or wherever they
are as the solvent dries.
NOTE
YOU MUST IDENTIFY THE RETURN COOLER LINE TO START THE BACK FLUSHING
PROCEDURE.
A quick way to identify the return cooler line (fluid coming out of the cooler and returning to the
transmission) is to locate the return cooler line fitting on the transmission case. Refer to the
following lists:
Rear Wheel Drive
^ TORQSHIFT, 4R100, E40D, C6 - The REAR transmission case filling receives the return line.
^ 4R70W, AODE, AOD - The TOP transmission case filling receives the return line.
^ A4LD, 4R44/55E, 5R55E, 5R55N, 5R55W, 5R55S
- The TOP transmission case filling receives the return line.
Front Wheel Drive
^ CD4E - The REAR or Pump End transaxle case fitting receives the return line.
^ 4F27E - The REAR or Cover End transaxle case fitting receives the return line.
^ AXOD, AXODE, AX4S, AX4N, 4F50N - The BOTTOM transaxle cooler line fitting receives the
return line.
NOTE
IF AN IN-LINE FILTER HAS BEEN INSTALLED IN THE COOLER LINE, IT MUST BE REMOVED
BEFORE FLUSHING THE COOLER OR COOLER LINES.
Purge the cooler and cooler line before flushing:
Located on the "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line Flusher" is a fluid transfer and purge valve. This
valve can be used to purge the cooler and cooler lines of contaminated fluid before starting the
back flush procedure of the fluid cooling system (refer to step 5a of this Service Procedure or
Equipment instructions, supplied with the "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line Flusher").
Flush Procedure
1. Check and top off fluid level of the "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line Flusher" tank with
transmission fluid.
2. Allow the fluid in the flusher 15-30 minutes to heat up to 140° F (60° C) before using.
3. Install line adapters into the transmission cooler lines.
4. Attach the flusher's blue line to the transmission return cooler line quick disconnect.
5. Attach the flusher's red line to the transmission outlet cooler line quick disconnect.
a. Follow equipment instructions, to purge cooler lines and cooler prior to starting flushing
procedure (using factory installed purge valve and clear hose on "Turbo-Tank Heated Cooler Line
Flusher").
6. Allow the cooling system to back-flush for 10-15 minutes, then flush the cooler in a
forward/normal flow direction for an additional 10-15 minutes.

Transmission Cooler: Description and Operation
Transmission Cooling
All vehicles with automatic transmissions are equipped with integral transmission fluid coolers. The
integral transmission fluid cooler is contained inside of the radiator outlet tank and cannot be
repaired separately. All (AWD) vehicles are equipped with the transmission auxiliary fluid cooler,
which is mounted in front of the radiator. In operation, transmission fluid travels from the
transmission to the integral transmission fluid cooler to the transmission auxiliary fluid cooler then
back to the transmission. The integral transmission fluid cooler transfers heat from the transmission
fluid to the engine coolant. The transmission auxiliary fluid cooler transfers heat from the
transmission fluid to the outside air.

Inspection and Verification
WARNING: Never remove the radiator cap under any conditions while the engine is operating.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in personal injury and/or damage to the cooling
system or engine. To avoid having scalding hot coolant or steam blow out of the radiator, use
extreme care when removing the radiator cap from a hot radiator. Wait until the engine has cooled,
then wrap a thick cloth around the radiator cap and turn it slowly to the first stop. Step back while
the pressure is released from the cooling system. When you are certain all the pressure has been
released, press down on the radiator cap (with a cloth), turn and remove.
Check for fluid leakage. If fluid leakage is found at any of the transmission fluid cooling
components, the component must be replaced.

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

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.

cavity sides are shown separately as if the connector were disconnected. The color of the
connector housing is indicated next to the connector number. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Automatic Transmission/Transaxle > Transmission Temperature
Sensor/Switch, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 5633
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation
Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor
The transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor is a thermistor-type sensor that varies a reference
voltage signal. The resistance in the TFT varies with temperature. The powertrain control module
(PCM) monitors the voltage signal across the TFT, and uses this information to determine the
transmission fluid temperature.
The TFT is located on the main control body wiring harness assembly.
The PCM uses the TFT signal to help determine shift scheduling, torque converter clutch operation
and electronic pressure control (EPC).

^ If yes, continue with the verification.
^ If no, follow normal diagnosis as listed in the Workshop Manual, the Main Control is not the
problem.
7. Continue to bring the transmission to operating temperature above 66°C (150°F). This may be
accomplished by driving the vehicle for 15 to 20 minutes.
8. After normal operating temperature is reached, maintain a constant speed of about 80 km/h (50
mph) to engage the converter. Tap the brake pedal with the left foot. Engine RPM should increase
when the brake pedal has been tapped, and decrease after about five seconds after the pedal is
released.
9. Maintaining a constant vehicle speed, allow the torque converter to re-engage.

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

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Information and Instructions > Page 5995
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Information and Instructions > Page 5997
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > 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 5998
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation
Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor
The transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor is a thermistor-type sensor that varies a reference
voltage signal. The resistance in the TFT varies with temperature. The powertrain control module
(PCM) monitors the voltage signal across the TFT, and uses this information to determine the
transmission fluid temperature.
The TFT is located on the main control body wiring harness assembly.
The PCM uses the TFT signal to help determine shift scheduling, torque converter clutch operation
and electronic pressure control (EPC).

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6032
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Transmission Control Systems > Actuators and Solenoids Transmission and Drivetrain > Actuators and Solenoids - A/T > Pressure Regulating Solenoid, A/T > Component
Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6035
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Pressure Regulating Solenoid: Description and Operation
Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) Solenoid
The electronic pressure control (EPC) solenoid is a variable force style (VFS) solenoid. The VFS
type solenoid is an electro-hydraulic actuator combining a solenoid and a regulating valve.
The powertrain control module (PCM) varies the current to the EPC solenoid.
This action causes the solenoid to regulate transmission line pressure and line modulator pressure.
This is done by producing resisting forces to the main regulator and line modulator circuits. These
two circuits control clutch application pressures.
The PCM has an adaptive learn strategy to electronically control the transmission which will
automatically adjust the shift feel. When the battery has been disconnected or a new battery
installed, certain transmission operating parameters may be lost. The PCM must relearn these
parameters. During this learning process you may experience slightly firm shifts, delayed, or early
shifts. This operation is considered normal and will not affect the function of the transmission.
Normal operation will return once these parameters are stored by the PCM.

Shift Solenoid: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6075
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6077
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > Transmission Control Systems > Actuators and Solenoids Transmission and Drivetrain > Actuators and Solenoids - A/T > Shift Solenoid, A/T > Component Information > Diagrams >
Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6078
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Shift Solenoid: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Transmission and Drivetrain > 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 6115
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

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

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6183
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6185
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
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 6186
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation
Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor
The transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor is a thermistor-type sensor that varies a reference
voltage signal. The resistance in the TFT varies with temperature. The powertrain control module
(PCM) monitors the voltage signal across the TFT, and uses this information to determine the
transmission fluid temperature.
The TFT is located on the main control body wiring harness assembly.
The PCM uses the TFT signal to help determine shift scheduling, torque converter clutch operation
and electronic pressure control (EPC).

WARNING: Use of any other than approved DOT 3 brake fluid will cause permanent damage to
brake components and will render the brakes inoperative.
WARNING: Brake fluid contains polyglycol ethers and polyglycols. Avoid contact with eyes. Wash
hands thoroughly after handling. If brake fluid contacts eyes, flush eyes with running water for 15
minutes. Get medical attention if irritation persists. If taken internally, drink water and induce
vomiting. Get medical attention immediately.
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.
CAUTION: Do not allow the brake master cylinder reservoir to run dry during the bleeding
operation. Keep the brake master cylinder reservoir filled with the specified brake fluid. Never reuse
the brake fluid that has been drained from the hydraulic system.
NOTE: When any part of the hydraulic system has been disconnected for repair or installation of
new components, air can get into the system and cause spongy brake pedal action. This requires
bleeding of the hydraulic system after it has been correctly connected. The hydraulic system can
be bled manually or with pressure bleeding equipment.
1. Clean all dirt from and remove the brake master cylinder filler cap and fill the brake master
cylinder reservoir with the specified brake fluid.
2. NOTE: Disc brake is shown, drum brake is similar.
Place a box end wrench on the RH rear bleeder screw. Attach a rubber drain tube to the RH rear
bleeder screw and submerge the free end of the tube in a container partially filled with clean brake
fluid.
3. Have an assistant pump the brake pedal and then hold firm pressure on the brake pedal.

Recharging procedures.
ACTION Refer to the following Service Tips to avoid misdiagnosis of a battery using the Battery
Eye, and to determine the best way to charge a battery that may be discharged.
SERVICE TIPS
Battery Eye Operation / Function
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Battery > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins >
Battery - Battery Eye Function/Charging/Service > Page 6490
The purpose of the battery eye is to indicate the state of charge of the battery in the assembly plant
and while on the dealership lot. The battery eye can also indicate the state-of-charge when the
vehicle is delivered to the dealership and during the pre-delivery inspection process. The battery
eye is made up of a viewing plate, two balls and a small passage. The balls indicate the specific
gravity of the electrolyte by floating higher or lower in the passageway. It is important to note that
the battery eye checks the specific gravity on only one battery cell.
^ RED usually indicates that the battery state-of-charge is at 40 percent or less
^ YELLOW indicates that the battery state-of-charge is between 40 and 57 percent
^ GREEN indicates that the battery state-of-charge is above 57 percent
^ NO COLOR/BLACK sometimes no color can be seen at all and the eye appears black. This could
happen after the battery has been in service for several years and some of the plate material has
coated the balls
^ CLEAR could happen if the battery case becomes damaged and the electrolyte has fallen below
the plates
The battery eye is a state-of-charge indicator, but should not be used to condemn a battery after
the vehicle has been placed in service. After delivery, many things could happen to cause the
battery eye to lead to misdiagnosis of the battery's actual state-of-charge. After the vehicle has
been in service, the battery eye does not always accurately reflect the battery state-of-charge. The
GR-1 190 Battery Tester/Charge or Micro 490 Digital Battery Analyzer should be used to determine
battery condition.
Do not replace a battery based solely on the indication given by the battery eye. The battery eye
color simply indicates the battery state-of-charge, not its condition. If the eye indicates the battery
may be discharged, Use GR-1 190 Battery Tester/Charger to determine the battery condition or
recharge the battery before testing using the Micro 490.
A red or yellow indicator usually means that the battery is discharged, not defective. Therefore, a
battery with a red or yellow eye should not automatically be replaced. The indicator could remain
red after recharge because the balls are stuck in the passageway.
When new vehicles are delivered to the dealership, be sure to check the state-of-charge indicator
within 72 hours. If the battery eye is red, charge the battery until it is fully charged. Refer to the
following Battery Charging Procedure.
Batteries discharge while the vehicle is on the lot due to normal parasitic key-off loads. Also,
vehicles in inventory are generally driven short distances with heavy electrical loads. Over a period
of time (30 days or more), vehicles still in inventory will have shallow to deeply discharged
batteries. The vehicle's charging system is designed to supply the vehicle's electrical power needs
and maintain the battery near full charge during normal vehicle use. The charging system is not
capable of bringing a deeply discharged battery back near full charge in a short amount of time
such as allowing the vehicle to idle for 15 minutes to "recharge the battery". Discharged batteries
should be charged using an external charger. Refer to the following Battery Charging Procedure.
NOTE
THE BATTERY EYE MAY REMAIN RED FOR A PERIOD OF TIME (UP TO SEVERAL DAYS),
EVEN AFTER THE BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED, BECAUSE THE ACID IS NOT YET FULLY
MIXED.
Battery Charging Procedure
Dealers with GR-1 190, use the Diagnostic Fast Charge Mode on GR-1 190 for this procedure and
for dealers without a GR-1 190 the following procedure applies:
The Micro 490 Digital Battery Analyzer (Rotunda Part Number 162-00004) is extremely accurate if
used properly and can distinguish the difference between good, defective, worn out, or
discharged-only batteries. This TSB provides proper battery charging procedures for batteries that
are identified as "discharged-only". Discharged-only batteries can be recharged using the
procedures in this TSB without reducing battery life or charge capacity.
NOTE
BATTERY CHARGERS HAVE IMPROVED GREATLY WITH THE ADDITION OF THE NEW
GENERATION OF "PULSE CHARGERS". THESE NEW CHARGERS PULSE CURRENT INTO
THE BATTERY THAT BREAKS DOWN THE SULFATION LAYER ON THE BATTERY PLATES
AND GENERALLY REDUCE CHARGING TIMES TO LESS THAN 1 HOUR.
^ DEEPLY DISCHARGED - A battery that is drained over a prolonged period of time such as an
unsold vehicle, to the point it is dead
^ SHALLOW DISCHARGE - A battery that is drained by leaving an accessory on for several hours
or a few days, and has a very low charge

Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Battery > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins >
Battery - Battery Eye Function/Charging/Service > Page 6491
The chart information summarizes two (2) recommended methods of charging.
NOTE
COLD BATTERIES WILL NOT READILY ACCEPT A CHARGE. THEREFORE, BATTERIES
SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO WARM TO APPROXIMATELY 41° F (5° C) BEFORE CHARGING.
THIS MAY REQUIRE 4 TO 8 HOURS AT ROOM TEMPERATURE.
A battery which has been completely discharged and left in that condition for a prolonged time
(such as an unsold vehicle) may be slow to accept a charge initially, and in some cases may not
accept a charge at the normal charger setting. When batteries are in this condition, charging can
be started by use of the "dead battery" feature on chargers so equipped. Follow charger
manufacturer's instructions for use of dead battery switch. If switch is the spring-loaded type, it may
need to be held in the ON position for up to 3 minutes.
NOTE
THE BATTERY EYE MAY REMAIN RED FOR A PERIOD OF TIME (UP TO SEVERAL DAYS),
EVEN AFTER THE BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED, BECAUSE THE ACID IS NOT YET FULLY
MIXED.

Battery Drain Test
NOTE: No production vehicle should have more than a 50 mA (0.050 amp) continuous draw.
Check for current drains on the battery in excess of 50 milliampere (0.050 amp) with all the
electrical accessories off and the vehicle at rest. Current drains can be tested with the following
procedure:
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS TEST ON A LEAD-ACID BATTERY THAT HAS RECENTLY
BEEN RECHARGED. EXPLOSIVE GASES CAN CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the meter, do not crank the engine or operate accessories that
draw more than 10A.
NOTE:
^ Many modules draw 10 mA (0.010 amp) or more continuously.
^ Use an in-line ammeter between the battery positive or negative post and its respective cable.
^ Typically, a drain of approximately one amp can be attributed to an engine compartment lamp,
glove compartment lamp, or luggage compartment lamp staying on continually. Other component
failures or wiring shorts may be located by selectively pulling fuses to pinpoint the location of the
current drain. When the current drain is found, the meter reading will fall to an acceptable level. If
the drain is still not located after checking all the fuses, it may be due to the generator.
^ To accurately test the drain on a battery, an in-line digital ammeter must be used. Use of a test
lamp or voltmeter is not an accurate method due to the number of electronic modules.
1. Make sure the junction box/fuse panels are accessible without turning on interior and underhood
lights. 2. Drive the vehicle at least five minutes and over 48 km/h (30 mph) to turn on and exercise
the vehicle systems. 3. Allow the vehicle to sit with the key off for at least 40 minutes to allow
modules to time out/power down. 4. Connect a fused jumper wire between the negative battery
cable and the negative battery post to prevent modules from resetting and to catch
capacitive drains.
5. Disconnect the negative battery cable from the post without breaking the connection of the
jumper wire. 6. Connect the tester between the negative battery cable and the post. The meter
must be capable of reading milliampere and should have a 10 amp
capability.
NOTE: It is very important that continuity is not broken between the battery and the negative
battery cable when connecting the meter. If this happens, the entire procedure must be repeated.
7. Remove the jumper wire.
NOTE: If the meter settings need to be switched or the test leads need to be moved to another
jack, the jumper wire must be reinstalled to avoid breaking continuity.
NOTE:
^ Amperage draw will vary from vehicle to vehicle depending on the equipment package. Compare
to a comparable vehicle for reference.
^ No production vehicle should have more than a 50 mA (0.050 amp) draw.
8. If the draw is found to be excessive, pull fuses from the battery/central junction box one at a time
and note the current drop. Do not reinstall the
fuses until you are finished testing.
9. Check the wiring schematic in the wiring diagram for any circuits that run from the battery without
passing through the battery/central junction box
. Disconnect these circuits if the draw is still excessive.
Battery Load Test
1. With the engine running, turn the A/C on, the blower motor on high speed and the headlamps on
high beam. 2. Increase the engine speed to approximately 2000 rpm. The voltage should increase
a minimum of 0.5 volt above the base voltage.
^ If the voltage does not increase as specified, carry out the Generator On-Vehicle Tests. See:
Charging System/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics/Generator
Testing
^ If the voltage increases as specified, the charging system is operating normally.
Electronic Drains That Shut Off When The Battery Cable Is Disconnected
1. Repeat the steps of the battery drain testing. 2. Make sure all doors are closed and accessories
are off. Without starting the engine, turn the ignition switch to RUN for a moment and then OFF.
Wait a few minutes for the illuminated entry lamps to turn off if equipped.
3. Connect the ammeter and read the amperage draw.
Test Conclusion
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Battery > Component Information > Testing and Inspection > Initial
Inspection and Diagnostic Overview > Page 6504
The current reading (current drain) should be less than 50 mA (0.05 amp). If the current drain
exceeds 50 mA (0.05 amp) after a few minutes, and if this drain did not show in previous tests, the
drain is most likely caused by an inoperative electronic component. As in previous tests, remove
the fuses from the battery/central junction box one at a time to locate the problem circuit.

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Charging System > Generator <--> [Alternator] > Component Information
> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6519
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Charging System > Generator <--> [Alternator] > Component Information
> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6521
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Charging System > Generator <--> [Alternator] > Component Information
> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6522
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Generator: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

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

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

Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Customer Interest for Electronic Noise Suppressor: > 02-16-4 > Aug
> 02 > Audio System - Whining/Buzzing Noise From Speakers > Page 6596
NOTE
IF THE VEHICLE HAS AN ELECTRONIC RETURNLESS FUEL SYSTEM, DO NOT INSTALL A
RFI FILTER INLINE TO THE FUEL PUMP . ONLY VEHICLES WITH MECHANICAL
RETURNLESS FUEL SYSTEMS (PRESSURE REGULATOR IN THE TANK), OR SYSTEMS
WITH THE PRESSURE REGULATOR ON THE FUEL RAIL SHOULD BE APPROVED FOR THE
RFI FILTER INSTALLATION.
NOTE
SOME LIGHT TRUCKS REQUIRE ONE (1) RFI FILTER FOR EACH IN-TANK ELECTRIC FUEL
PUMP ON MULTI-TANK VEHICLES.
NOTE
THIS TSB DOES NOT INCLUDE TAURUS FLEXIBLE FUEL VEHICLES (FFVS) OR 1999
RANGER 3.0L FFVS.
TEST PROCEDURE
Fuel pump radio noise is relatively constant and changes only slightly with vehicle speed. If the
frequency of the noise varies or the noise comes and goes with the vehicle speed, then it is not the
fuel pump and this fix will not be effective. The following procedure will help determine if the fuel
pump is the cause of the radio noise:
1. Turn on the radio before the key is turned on (assuming the radio will operate without the ignition
key - you may need to put the ignition key in the Accessory position).
2. Turn the ignition key to the Run position (do not start the engine).
3. The fuel pump should run for about 1 second with the key in the Run position with the engine not
running. Listen for noise in the radio. If noise is present while the pump is running and stops when
the pump stops, then the noise is being generated by the pump and this procedure should help.

NOTE
HEAT SHRINK TUBING MUST BE USED OVER ALL SOLDERED CONNECTIONS MADE PER
THIS TSB. USE SUFFICIENT TUBING (ABOUT 50 mm (2 ")) OF THE SPECIFIED TYPE TO
ENTIRELY COVER EACH SOLDERED CONNECTION AND SHRINK APPROPRIATELY TO
PREVENT EXPOSURE OF THE CONNECTIONS.
NOTE
FOR SOME VEHICLES WITH EXTREMELY LONG FUEL PUMP GROUND WIRE CIRCUITS, IT
MAY BE NECESSARY TO SHORTEN THE GROUND WIRE TO A POINT CLOSE TO THE FUEL
TANK. IF THE GROUND IS MOVED, BE SURE IT IS SECURE AND PROTECTED FROM
CORROSION SINCE IT IS THE OPERATING GROUND FOR THE PUMP. CHECK SERVICE
LITERATURE (EVTM, ETC.) FOR GROUND LOCATIONS.
WARNING
ALL SOLDERING AND HEAT SHRINKING MUST BE COMPLETED AWAY FROM THE FUEL
TANK AREA. USE A SOLDERING IRON ONLY FOR SOLDERING AND HEAT GUN ONLY FOR
APPLYING SHRINK TUBING.
4. Secure the RFI filter to the fuel pump and sender assembly with a Bundling Strap (95873-S101)
to prevent rattling in the tank, Figures 1 and 2.
5. Reinstall the fuel pump sender assembly into the fuel tank.
CAUTION
INSTALL NEW GASKETS WHEN REINSTALLING SENDER TO PREVENT LEAKS. REFER TO
THE PARTS CATALOG FOR PROPER APPLICATIONS.
6. Check the appropriate Electrical and Vacuum Troubleshooting Manual (EVTM) (or other service
literature) for the location of the fuel pump ground. If ground is more than 0.9m (3 ') from the tank,
cut wire and ground fuel pump end within 0.9m (3 ') of the tank to prevent ground wire from acting
as an antenna. Be sure ground is secure and protected from corrosion since it is the operating
ground for the fuel pump.
7. Install the fuel tank in the vehicle as outlined in the appropriate Service or Workshop Manual.

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

Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > All Technical Service Bulletins for Electronic Noise Suppressor: >
02-16-4 > Aug > 02 > Audio System - Whining/Buzzing Noise From Speakers > Page 6609
NOTE
IF THE VEHICLE HAS AN ELECTRONIC RETURNLESS FUEL SYSTEM, DO NOT INSTALL A
RFI FILTER INLINE TO THE FUEL PUMP . ONLY VEHICLES WITH MECHANICAL
RETURNLESS FUEL SYSTEMS (PRESSURE REGULATOR IN THE TANK), OR SYSTEMS
WITH THE PRESSURE REGULATOR ON THE FUEL RAIL SHOULD BE APPROVED FOR THE
RFI FILTER INSTALLATION.
NOTE
SOME LIGHT TRUCKS REQUIRE ONE (1) RFI FILTER FOR EACH IN-TANK ELECTRIC FUEL
PUMP ON MULTI-TANK VEHICLES.
NOTE
THIS TSB DOES NOT INCLUDE TAURUS FLEXIBLE FUEL VEHICLES (FFVS) OR 1999
RANGER 3.0L FFVS.
TEST PROCEDURE
Fuel pump radio noise is relatively constant and changes only slightly with vehicle speed. If the
frequency of the noise varies or the noise comes and goes with the vehicle speed, then it is not the
fuel pump and this fix will not be effective. The following procedure will help determine if the fuel
pump is the cause of the radio noise:
1. Turn on the radio before the key is turned on (assuming the radio will operate without the ignition
key - you may need to put the ignition key in the Accessory position).
2. Turn the ignition key to the Run position (do not start the engine).
3. The fuel pump should run for about 1 second with the key in the Run position with the engine not
running. Listen for noise in the radio. If noise is present while the pump is running and stops when
the pump stops, then the noise is being generated by the pump and this procedure should help.

Fuse: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse > Component Information >
Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6643
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse > Component Information >
Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6646
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

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

Fuse Block: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component Information
> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6708
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component Information
> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6710
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.

clothing.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component Information
> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 6711
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know

Fuse Block: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Electrical - Wiring Soldering/Crimping Service Tips > Page 6905
Information on the pigtail and terminal repair kits can also be accessed by technicians via the P15
web site. To access on PTS:
^ Select the year/model of the vehicle on the P15 home page
^ Select the wiring tab
^ Select the link to the pigtail or terminal repair kit at the top right of screen.
Additional service information contained in this TSB detailing wire folding, soldering, and crimping
techniques may be helpful.
ACTION
REPAIR VS REPLACEMENT
The approved procedure is to repair wiring harnesses with pigtail kits, wire terminals, or hard shell
connectors when available. The only exceptions to this procedure are when:
^ The repair cost exceeds the cost to replace the wiring harness
^ There are no component parts released to service the wiring harness
RESTRAINTS RELATED WIRING REPAIRS
If restraints connectors or wiring circuits are contained in a stand-alone harness, do not repair
them; replace the restraints harness unless directed to repair the circuit by a TSB or other Ford
Motor Company publication.
If restraints connectors or wiring circuits are contained in the main vehicle wiring harnesses (14401,
14A005, etc.), they should be repaired using the solder and heat-shrink repair procedure specified
in this TSB. The General Wire Terminal Repair Kit contains gold plated terminated pigtails (with
white insulation) and dual wall heat shrink tubing to perform these repairs. Loaded wiring pigtail kits
with gold plated terminals are also available in the parts catalog.

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

Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Wiring Harness > Component
Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Electrical - Wiring Soldering/Crimping Service Tips > Page 6906
Stagger the repairs to minimize harness diameter and maintain harness length (Figure 2).
Any leads that are not going to be used need to be sealed with dual wall heat shrink and stowed
(Figure 2). Silicone must not be used.
Excess wire from the harness can be folded back on itself to maintain the harness length.
Reapply any convolute and tape that was removed to make the repair.
For 16 AGW and Smaller Diameter Wire

Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Electrical - Wiring Soldering/Crimping Service Tips > Page 6907
1. Strip 1-1/2" (37.2 mm) of insulation from Wire # 1 and 3/4" (19.5 mm) of insulation from Wire # 2,
taking care not to nick or cut wire strands (Figure 3). Pull wire straight from stripper. If wire is pulled
at an angle, wire strands may be cut off. If more than one (1) strand is cut off during stripping, cut
off the end and re-strip.
2. Install heat shrink tubing at least 1" (26 mm) away from one of the stripped ends being spliced.
Twist wires together. Solder wires together (Figure 4).
NOTE
USE ROSIN CORE MILDLY ACTIVATED (RMS) SOLDER. DO NOT USE ACID CORE SOLDER
FOR WIRE REPAIR.
3. Bend Wire # 1 back in a straight line for sealing (Figure 4). Inspect solder joint bond.
NOTE
WAIT FOR SOLDER TO COOL BEFORE MOVING WIRES.

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

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

Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Wiring Harness > Component
Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Electrical - Wiring Soldering/Crimping Service Tips > Page 6912
3. Identify the appropriate crimping chamber of the Rotunda 164-R5901 Pro-Crimper (or
equivalent) by matching the wire size on the dies with the wire size stamped on the butt splice
(Figure 7). Hold the crimping tool so the identified wire sizes are facing you. Squeeze tool handles
together until the ratchet releases, then allow the jaws of the tool to open fully.
4. Center one (1) end of the butt splice on the appropriate crimping chamber. If visible, be sure to
place the brazed seam of the butt splice toward the indenter (Figure 8).
5. Hold the butt splice in place and squeeze the tool handles together until the ratchet engages
sufficiently to hold the butt splice in position (typically one (1) or two (2) clicks). DO NOT deform the
butt splice.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Starting and Charging > Power and Ground Distribution > Wiring Harness > Component
Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Electrical - Wiring Soldering/Crimping Service Tips > Page 6913
6. Insert stripped wire into the buff splice, making sure the insulation on wire does not enter the butt
splice (Figure 8).
7. Holding the wire in place, squeeze tool handles together until ratchet releases. Allow tool
handles to open, then remove crimped butt splice.
8. To crimp the other half of the splice, reposition the un-crimped wire barrel in the same crimping
chamber, and repeat Steps 3-8. If splice cannot be turned for crimping the other half, turn the tool
around.
9. Check for acceptable crimp.
a. Crimp should be centered on each end of the butt splice. It is acceptable for crimp to be slightly
off center, but not off the end of the buff splice (Figure 9-a).
b. Wire insulation does not enter butt splice. Wire is flush with or extends slightly beyond end of
buff splice (Figure 9-b).
c. Wire is visible through inspection hole of splices (Figure 9-c).
10. Evenly position heat shrink tubing over wire repair (Figure 5).
NOTE
OVERLAP TUBING ON BOTH WIRES.
11. Use a shielded heat gun to heat the entire length of the heat shrink tubing until the hot melt
appears from both ends of the tubing. Durability of a heat shrink tubing splice is dependent on the
hot melt that will appear from both ends of the tube. The hot melt forms an adhesive seal between
the wire insulation and the heat shrink tubing, which prevents air and moisture from entering the
solder point (Figure 5).

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

Technical Service Bulletins > Customer Interest for Electronic Noise Suppressor: > 02-16-4 > Aug > 02 > Audio System Whining/Buzzing Noise From Speakers > Page 6935
NOTE
IF THE VEHICLE HAS AN ELECTRONIC RETURNLESS FUEL SYSTEM, DO NOT INSTALL A
RFI FILTER INLINE TO THE FUEL PUMP . ONLY VEHICLES WITH MECHANICAL
RETURNLESS FUEL SYSTEMS (PRESSURE REGULATOR IN THE TANK), OR SYSTEMS
WITH THE PRESSURE REGULATOR ON THE FUEL RAIL SHOULD BE APPROVED FOR THE
RFI FILTER INSTALLATION.
NOTE
SOME LIGHT TRUCKS REQUIRE ONE (1) RFI FILTER FOR EACH IN-TANK ELECTRIC FUEL
PUMP ON MULTI-TANK VEHICLES.
NOTE
THIS TSB DOES NOT INCLUDE TAURUS FLEXIBLE FUEL VEHICLES (FFVS) OR 1999
RANGER 3.0L FFVS.
TEST PROCEDURE
Fuel pump radio noise is relatively constant and changes only slightly with vehicle speed. If the
frequency of the noise varies or the noise comes and goes with the vehicle speed, then it is not the
fuel pump and this fix will not be effective. The following procedure will help determine if the fuel
pump is the cause of the radio noise:
1. Turn on the radio before the key is turned on (assuming the radio will operate without the ignition
key - you may need to put the ignition key in the Accessory position).
2. Turn the ignition key to the Run position (do not start the engine).
3. The fuel pump should run for about 1 second with the key in the Run position with the engine not
running. Listen for noise in the radio. If noise is present while the pump is running and stops when
the pump stops, then the noise is being generated by the pump and this procedure should help.

Fuse: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 6982
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 6983
Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 6984
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 6985
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Fuse: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Fuse Block: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 7047
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 7049
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Fuse Block > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 7050
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Fuse Block: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

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

Service Tips
Refer to applicable model year wiring diagrams for circuit information.
Twisted Wire Circuits
For "Twisted Wire" circuit repair (Figure 1), the twisting must not be disrupted for more than 2" (51
mm) Twist the repaired wires in the same direction and with the same general twist rate as the
original wiring. Reapply the shielding on shielded circuits.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Power and Ground Distribution > Wiring Harness > Component Information > Technical Service
Bulletins > Electrical - Wiring Soldering/Crimping Service Tips > Page 7245
Stagger the repairs to minimize harness diameter and maintain harness length (Figure 2).
Any leads that are not going to be used need to be sealed with dual wall heat shrink and stowed
(Figure 2). Silicone must not be used.
Excess wire from the harness can be folded back on itself to maintain the harness length.
Reapply any convolute and tape that was removed to make the repair.
For 16 AGW and Smaller Diameter Wire

Bulletins > Electrical - Wiring Soldering/Crimping Service Tips > Page 7246
1. Strip 1-1/2" (37.2 mm) of insulation from Wire # 1 and 3/4" (19.5 mm) of insulation from Wire # 2,
taking care not to nick or cut wire strands (Figure 3). Pull wire straight from stripper. If wire is pulled
at an angle, wire strands may be cut off. If more than one (1) strand is cut off during stripping, cut
off the end and re-strip.
2. Install heat shrink tubing at least 1" (26 mm) away from one of the stripped ends being spliced.
Twist wires together. Solder wires together (Figure 4).
NOTE
USE ROSIN CORE MILDLY ACTIVATED (RMS) SOLDER. DO NOT USE ACID CORE SOLDER
FOR WIRE REPAIR.
3. Bend Wire # 1 back in a straight line for sealing (Figure 4). Inspect solder joint bond.
NOTE
WAIT FOR SOLDER TO COOL BEFORE MOVING WIRES.

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

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

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

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

Alignment: Description and Operation
Wheel Alignment Angles
Caster and camber are adjusted by means of eccentric cams on the upper control arm mounting
bolts. Toe is adjusted by the use of the front wheel spindle tie-rod.
Camber
Negative and Positive 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 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.
Toe
Positive Toe (Toe In)

Wheel Track
Wheel Track
Dogtracking
Dogtracking
Dogtracking is the condition in which the rear axle is not square to the chassis. Heavily crowned
roads can give the illusion of dogtracking.
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)
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Steering and Suspension > Alignment > System Information > Technical Service Bulletins >
Page 7264
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.
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 (i.e., wind, road camber).
Poor Groove Feel
Poor groove feel is characterized by little or no buildup of turning effort felt in the steering wheel as
the wheel is rocked slowly left and right within very small turns around center or straight-ahead
(under 20 degrees of steering wheel turn). Efforts may be said to be "flat on center." ^
Under 20 degrees of turn, most of the turning effort that builds up comes from the mesh of gear
teeth in the steering gear. In this range, the steering wheel is not yet turned enough to feel the
effort from the self-aligning forces at the road wheel or tire patch.
^ In the diagnosis of a readability problem, it is important to understand the difference between
wander and poor groove feel.

ISSUE
Some 2001-2004 Explorer Sport Trac and 2001-2003 Explorer Sport vehicles may exhibit a
steering wheel shudder during low-speed turning maneuvers. This may be due to the interaction
between the tire and the road surface, which is amplified by the steering system. The condition will
vary according to ambient temperature, road surface friction, and steering wheel turning speed.
ACTION
As design changes have taken place in the steering system, it is important to note the vehicle build
date and follow the appropriate steps outlined in the following Service Procedure. Per the vehicle
build date it may be necessary to replace the power steering pump and cooler, and install a no-hole
check valve in the steering gear. Perform a thorough evacuation of air from the power steering
system after replacement/installation of parts and reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
to the latest level calibration.
NOTE
THE STEERING SHUDDER WILL NOT BE CORRECTED UNLESS THE SYSTEM IS PURGED
OF AIR WITH A VACUUM AT THE RESERVOIR. CORRECTLY FOLLOWING THE EVACUATION
PROCEDURE DETAILED BELOW WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TIME NEEDED TO
CORRECT THE SHUDDER. THE SHUDDER MAY STILL BE PRESENT AFTER REPLACEMENT
OF THE PARTS IF THE EVACUATION PROCEDURE IS NOT PROPERLY FOLLOWED.
NOTE
PRIOR TO PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE, PERFORM THE DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DESCRIBED IN THE APPROPRIATE WORKSHOP MANUAL, SECTION 211-00 TO CONFIRM
THAT ALL OTHER SYSTEM ISSUES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED.
SERVICE PROCEDURE

USE ROTUNDA TOOL-211-D-027 OR EQUIVALENT TO SIZE THE 0-RING. ANY OTHER
METHOD OF INSTALLATION WILL DEFORM IT, MAKING IT INEFFECTIVE.
4. Replace the check valve located in the steering gear pressure side inlet port with a No-Hole
Check Valve (E60Z-3N603-A). This new check valve has a spring-loaded closure allowing flow in
only one direction, without the bleeder hole that is present in the current check valve. CLEAN ALL
AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN
SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Using a pick tool, remove the clip retaining the check
valve in the gear inlet. Then, using the pick, remove the check valve from the port. Install the

5. Fill the power steering reservoir with MERCON' Multi-Purpose (ATF) Transmission Fluid
(XT-2-QDX) or equivalent.
6. WITH THE ENGINE OFF, apply 25 inches of vacuum to the reservoir opening. Start the engine
and let idle for 1 minute. DO NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. If power steering reservoir
becomes low, remove the vacuum and refill.
7. WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING and NO VACUUM APPLIED TO THE SYSTEM, turn the
steering wheel to the left and then to the right end-of-travel stops, KNOCKING AGAINST EACH
STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
8. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
9. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
10. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more
thorough air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and
stand outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching
the reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.
NOTE
THIS SHOULD NOT BE OVERDONE OR IT COULD DAMAGE THE PUMP.

STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
5. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
6. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
7. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more thorough
air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and stand
outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching the
reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.

STEERING SHUDDER DURING LOW SPEED MANEUVERS - 4.0L ENGINE
FORD: 2001-2003 Explorer Sport 2001-2005 Explorer Sport Trac
This article supersedes TSB 04-2-7 to update the vehicle model years and service procedure.
ISSUE Some 2001-2005 Explorer Sport Trac and 2001-2003 Explorer Sport vehicles may exhibit a
steering wheel shudder during low-speed turning maneuvers. This may be due to the interaction
between the tire and the road surface, which is amplified through the steering system. The
condition will vary according to ambient temperature, road surface friction, and steering wheel
turning speed.
ACTION As design changes have taken place in the steering system, it is important to note the
VEHICLE BUILD DATE and follow the appropriate steps outlined in the following Service
Procedure. Perform a thorough evacuation of air from the power steering system after
replacement/installation of parts.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
NOTE
BEFORE REPLACING ANY COMPONENT, BE SURE TO CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT
INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM
CONTAMINATION AND NOISE.
NOTE
THE STEERING SHUDDER WILL NOT BE CORRECTED UNLESS THE SYSTEM IS PURGED
OF AIR WITH A VACUUM AT THE RESERVOIR. FILL AND PURGE THE P/S SYSTEM
FOLLOWING THE PROCEDURES CALLED OUT IN THE ON-LINE WORKSHOP MANUAL,
SECTION 211-00. FOLLOWING THE EVACUATION PROCEDURE WILL REDUCE THE
AMOUNT OF TIME NEEDED TO CORRECT THE SHUDDER.
NOTE
PRIOR TO PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE, PERFORM THE DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DESCRIBED IN THE APPROPRIATE WORKSHOP MANUAL, SECTION 211-00 TO CONFIRM
THAT ALL OTHER SYSTEM ISSUES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED.

This article supersedes TSB 01-25-01 to update the part numbers and the vehicle coverage.
ISSUE
Some 2001-2004 Explorer Sport Trac and 2001-2003 Explorer Sport vehicles may exhibit a
steering wheel shudder during low-speed turning maneuvers. This may be due to the interaction
between the tire and the road surface, which is amplified by the steering system. The condition will
vary according to ambient temperature, road surface friction, and steering wheel turning speed.
ACTION
As design changes have taken place in the steering system, it is important to note the vehicle build
date and follow the appropriate steps outlined in the following Service Procedure. Per the vehicle
build date it may be necessary to replace the power steering pump and cooler, and install a no-hole
check valve in the steering gear. Perform a thorough evacuation of air from the power steering
system after replacement/installation of parts and reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
to the latest level calibration.
NOTE
THE STEERING SHUDDER WILL NOT BE CORRECTED UNLESS THE SYSTEM IS PURGED
OF AIR WITH A VACUUM AT THE RESERVOIR. CORRECTLY FOLLOWING THE EVACUATION
PROCEDURE DETAILED BELOW WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TIME NEEDED TO
CORRECT THE SHUDDER. THE SHUDDER MAY STILL BE PRESENT AFTER REPLACEMENT
OF THE PARTS IF THE EVACUATION PROCEDURE IS NOT PROPERLY FOLLOWED.

DO NOT INSTALL THE CHECK VALVE ON VEHICLES BUILT AFTER 11/07/2001. TRYING TO
INSTALL THE CHECK VALVE WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE RACK AND IT WILL HAVE TO
BE REPLACED.
1. All 4X2 Sport Trac vehicles built after 4/18/2001 should omit this step and begin with Step 2
below, as these vehicles are production equipped with a high output displacement pump and do
not require a pump update. All 4X4 and 4X2 Sport vehicles and 4X4 Sport Trac vehicles should
replace the Power Steering Pump with a new high displacement pump Part Number
3L2Z-3A674-CARM. BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION
COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND
NOISE. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section 211-02 for replacement instructions.
2. Check and fill the power steering reservoir as necessary with MERCON' Multi-Purpose (ATF)
Transmission Fluid (XT-2-QDX) or equivalent.
3. WITH THE ENGINE OFF, apply 25 inches of vacuum to the reservoir opening. Start the engine
and let idle for 1 minute. DO NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. If power steering reservoir
becomes low, remove the vacuum and refill.
4. WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING and NO VACUUM APPLIED TO THE SYSTEM, turn the
steering wheel to the left and then to the right end-of-travel stops, KNOCKING AGAINST EACH
STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
5. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
6. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
7. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more thorough
air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and stand
outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching the
reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.

This article supersedes TSB 01-25-01 to update the part numbers and the vehicle coverage.
ISSUE
Some 2001-2004 Explorer Sport Trac and 2001-2003 Explorer Sport vehicles may exhibit a
steering wheel shudder during low-speed turning maneuvers. This may be due to the interaction
between the tire and the road surface, which is amplified by the steering system. The condition will
vary according to ambient temperature, road surface friction, and steering wheel turning speed.
ACTION
As design changes have taken place in the steering system, it is important to note the vehicle build
date and follow the appropriate steps outlined in the following Service Procedure. Per the vehicle
build date it may be necessary to replace the power steering pump and cooler, and install a no-hole
check valve in the steering gear. Perform a thorough evacuation of air from the power steering
system after replacement/installation of parts and reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
to the latest level calibration.
NOTE
THE STEERING SHUDDER WILL NOT BE CORRECTED UNLESS THE SYSTEM IS PURGED
OF AIR WITH A VACUUM AT THE RESERVOIR. CORRECTLY FOLLOWING THE EVACUATION
PROCEDURE DETAILED BELOW WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TIME NEEDED TO
CORRECT THE SHUDDER. THE SHUDDER MAY STILL BE PRESENT AFTER REPLACEMENT
OF THE PARTS IF THE EVACUATION PROCEDURE IS NOT PROPERLY FOLLOWED.
NOTE
PRIOR TO PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE, PERFORM THE DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DESCRIBED IN THE APPROPRIATE WORKSHOP MANUAL, SECTION 211-00 TO CONFIRM

7. WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING and NO VACUUM APPLIED TO THE SYSTEM, turn the
steering wheel to the left and then to the right end-of-travel stops, KNOCKING AGAINST EACH
STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
8. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
9. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
10. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more
thorough air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and
stand outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching
the reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.
NOTE
THIS SHOULD NOT BE OVERDONE OR IT COULD DAMAGE THE PUMP.
11. Reprogram the PCM to the latest level available.

211-02 for complete replacement instructions.
3. Disconnect the power steering pressure line from the gear pressure port to allow replacement of
the check valve. DO NOT ATTACH A CLAMP TO THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE
AS IT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE TUNING CABLE INSIDE THE HOSE. Attach a clamp to the
COOLER RETURN LINE to reduce fluid flow out of the gear during removal of the pressure line.
Loosen the nut securing the power steering pressure hose to the gear inlet and detach it from the
gear. REPLACE THE 0-RING (388897-S) ON THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE NUT.
USE ROTUNDA TOOL 211-D-027 OR EQUIVALENT TO SIZE THE 0-RING. ANY OTHER
METHOD OF INSTALLATION WILL DEFORM IT, MAKING IT INEFFECTIVE.
4. Replace the check valve located in the steering gear pressure side inlet port with a No-Hole
Check Valve (E6DZ-3N603-A). This new check valve has a spring-loaded closure allowing flow in
only one direction, without the bleeder hole that is present in the current check valve.
CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY
RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Using a pick tool, remove the clip retaining
the check valve in the gear inlet. Then, using the pick, remove the check valve from the port. Install
the no-hole check valve WITH THE OPEN SIDE DOWNWARD into the pressure side inlet of gear
(Figure 1 and Figure 2). Reattach the power steering pressure hose to the inlet of the steering
gear.
5. Fill the power steering reservoir with MERCON' Multi-Purpose (ATF) Transmission Fluid
(XT-2-QDX) or equivalent.

6. WITH THE ENGINE OFF, apply 25 inches of vacuum to the reservoir opening. Start the engine
and let idle for 1 minute. DO NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. If power steering reservoir
becomes low, remove the vacuum and refill.
7. WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING and NO VACUUM APPLIED TO THE SYSTEM, turn the
steering wheel to the left and then to the right end-of-travel stops, KNOCKING AGAINST EACH
STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
8. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
9. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
10. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more
thorough air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and
stand outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching
the reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.
NOTE
THIS SHOULD NOT BE OVERDONE OR IT COULD DAMAGE THE PUMP.
11. Reprogram the PCM to the latest level available.
12. Test drive to verify repair.

This article supersedes TSB 01-25-01 to update the part numbers and the vehicle coverage.
ISSUE
Some 2001-2004 Explorer Sport Trac and 2001-2003 Explorer Sport vehicles may exhibit a
steering wheel shudder during low-speed turning maneuvers. This may be due to the interaction
between the tire and the road surface, which is amplified by the steering system. The condition will
vary according to ambient temperature, road surface friction, and steering wheel turning speed.
ACTION
As design changes have taken place in the steering system, it is important to note the vehicle build
date and follow the appropriate steps outlined in the following Service Procedure. Per the vehicle
build date it may be necessary to replace the power steering pump and cooler, and install a no-hole
check valve in the steering gear. Perform a thorough evacuation of air from the power steering
system after replacement/installation of parts and reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
to the latest level calibration.
NOTE
THE STEERING SHUDDER WILL NOT BE CORRECTED UNLESS THE SYSTEM IS PURGED
OF AIR WITH A VACUUM AT THE RESERVOIR. CORRECTLY FOLLOWING THE EVACUATION
PROCEDURE DETAILED BELOW WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TIME NEEDED TO
CORRECT THE SHUDDER. THE SHUDDER MAY STILL BE PRESENT AFTER REPLACEMENT
OF THE PARTS IF THE EVACUATION PROCEDURE IS NOT PROPERLY FOLLOWED.
NOTE
PRIOR TO PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE, PERFORM THE DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DESCRIBED IN THE APPROPRIATE WORKSHOP MANUAL, SECTION 211-00 TO CONFIRM
THAT ALL OTHER SYSTEM ISSUES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
VEHICLES BUILT PRIOR TO APRIL 18, 2001
1. Replace the Power Steering Pump with a new high displacement pump Part Number
3L2Z-3A674-CARM. BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION
COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND
NOISE. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section 211-02 for replacement instructions.
NOTE
DO NOT FILL, PURGE, OR LEAK CHECK THE SYSTEM AT THIS POINT SINCE THE
STEERING GEAR CHECK VALVE AND COOLER MUST ALSO BE REPLACED.
2. Replace the Cooler Assembly with service part F77Z-30746-GA. (This new cooler has a larger
fin pack to maintain lower fluid temperatures).
BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. The existing
cooler return line (hose attached to the gear outlet port) will be reused to ease installation. Attach a
clamp to the cooler return line to reduce fluid spillage during removal of the cooler. Disconnect the
existing cooler fin pack from the cooler return line by releasing the constant tension clamp. Remove
the return line on the new cooler to be installed and connect this new fin pack assembly to the
existing return line. Re-secure the constant tension clamp. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section

Loosen the nut securing the power steering pressure hose to the gear inlet and detach it from the
gear. REPLACE THE 0-RING (388897-S) ON THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE NUT.
USE ROTUNDA TOOL-211-D-027 OR EQUIVALENT TO SIZE THE 0-RING. ANY OTHER
METHOD OF INSTALLATION WILL DEFORM IT, MAKING IT INEFFECTIVE.
4. Replace the check valve located in the steering gear pressure side inlet port with a No-Hole
Check Valve (E60Z-3N603-A). This new check valve has a spring-loaded closure allowing flow in
only one direction, without the bleeder hole that is present in the current check valve. CLEAN ALL
AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN
SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Using a pick tool, remove the clip retaining the check
valve in the gear inlet. Then, using the pick, remove the check valve from the port. Install the
No-Hole Check Valve WITH THE OPEN SIDE DOWNWARD into the pressure side inlet of gear

5. Fill the power steering reservoir with MERCON' Multi-Purpose (ATF) Transmission Fluid
(XT-2-QDX) or equivalent.
6. WITH THE ENGINE OFF, apply 25 inches of vacuum to the reservoir opening. Start the engine
and let idle for 1 minute. DO NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. If power steering reservoir
becomes low, remove the vacuum and refill.
7. WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING and NO VACUUM APPLIED TO THE SYSTEM, turn the
steering wheel to the left and then to the right end-of-travel stops, KNOCKING AGAINST EACH
STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
8. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
9. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
10. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more
thorough air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and
stand outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching
the reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.
NOTE
THIS SHOULD NOT BE OVERDONE OR IT COULD DAMAGE THE PUMP.

VEHICLES BUILT AFTER APRIL 18, 2001, BUT PRIOR TO NOVEMBER 7, 2001
1. All 4X2 Sport Trac vehicles built after 4/18/2001 should omit this step and begin with Step 2
below, as these vehicles are production equipped with a high output displacement pump (Part
Number 1L2Z-3A674-GA) and do not require a pump update. All 4X4 and 4X2 Sport vehicles and
4X4 Sport Trac vehicles should replace the Power Steering Pump with a new high displacement
pump Part Number 3L2Z-3A674-CARM. BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE
DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM
CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section 211-02 for replacement
instructions.
2. Replace the Cooler Assembly with service part F77Z-3D746-GA. (This new cooler has a larger
fin pack to maintain lower fluid temperatures).
BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. The existing
cooler return line (hose attached to the gear outlet port) will be reused to ease installation. Attach a
clamp to the cooler return line to reduce fluid spillage during removal of the cooler. Disconnect the
existing cooler fin pack from the cooler return line by releasing the constant tension clamp. Remove
the return line on the new cooler to be installed and connect this new fin pack assembly to the
existing return line. Re-secure the constant tension clamp. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section
211-02 for complete replacement instructions.
3. Disconnect the power steering pressure line from the gear pressure port to allow replacement of
the check valve. DO NOT ATTACH A CLAMP TO THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE
AS IT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE TUNING CABLE INSIDE THE HOSE. Attach a clamp to the
COOLER RETURN LINE to reduce fluid flow out of the gear during removal of the pressure line.
Loosen the nut securing the power steering pressure hose to the gear inlet and detach it from the
gear. REPLACE THE 0-RING (388897-S) ON THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE NUT.
USE ROTUNDA TOOL 211-D-027 OR EQUIVALENT TO SIZE THE 0-RING. ANY OTHER
METHOD OF INSTALLATION WILL DEFORM IT, MAKING IT INEFFECTIVE.
4. Replace the check valve located in the steering gear pressure side inlet port with a No-Hole
Check Valve (E6DZ-3N603-A). This new check valve has a spring-loaded closure allowing flow in
only one direction, without the bleeder hole that is present in the current check valve.
CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY
RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Using a pick tool, remove the clip retaining
the check valve in the gear inlet. Then, using the pick, remove the check valve from the port. Install
the no-hole check valve WITH THE OPEN SIDE DOWNWARD into the pressure side inlet of gear
(Figure 1 and Figure 2). Reattach the power steering pressure hose to the inlet of the steering
gear.
5. Fill the power steering reservoir with MERCON' Multi-Purpose (ATF) Transmission Fluid
(XT-2-QDX) or equivalent.

6. WITH THE ENGINE OFF, apply 25 inches of vacuum to the reservoir opening. Start the engine
and let idle for 1 minute. DO NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. If power steering reservoir
becomes low, remove the vacuum and refill.
7. WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING and NO VACUUM APPLIED TO THE SYSTEM, turn the
steering wheel to the left and then to the right end-of-travel stops, KNOCKING AGAINST EACH
STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
8. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
9. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
10. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more
thorough air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and
stand outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching
the reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.
NOTE
THIS SHOULD NOT BE OVERDONE OR IT COULD DAMAGE THE PUMP.
11. Reprogram the PCM to the latest level available.
12. Test drive to verify repair.

This article supersedes TSB 01-25-01 to update the part numbers and the vehicle coverage.
ISSUE
Some 2001-2004 Explorer Sport Trac and 2001-2003 Explorer Sport vehicles may exhibit a
steering wheel shudder during low-speed turning maneuvers. This may be due to the interaction
between the tire and the road surface, which is amplified by the steering system. The condition will
vary according to ambient temperature, road surface friction, and steering wheel turning speed.
ACTION
As design changes have taken place in the steering system, it is important to note the vehicle build
date and follow the appropriate steps outlined in the following Service Procedure. Per the vehicle
build date it may be necessary to replace the power steering pump and cooler, and install a no-hole
check valve in the steering gear. Perform a thorough evacuation of air from the power steering
system after replacement/installation of parts and reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
to the latest level calibration.
NOTE
THE STEERING SHUDDER WILL NOT BE CORRECTED UNLESS THE SYSTEM IS PURGED
OF AIR WITH A VACUUM AT THE RESERVOIR. CORRECTLY FOLLOWING THE EVACUATION
PROCEDURE DETAILED BELOW WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TIME NEEDED TO
CORRECT THE SHUDDER. THE SHUDDER MAY STILL BE PRESENT AFTER REPLACEMENT
OF THE PARTS IF THE EVACUATION PROCEDURE IS NOT PROPERLY FOLLOWED.
NOTE
PRIOR TO PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE, PERFORM THE DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DESCRIBED IN THE APPROPRIATE WORKSHOP MANUAL, SECTION 211-00 TO CONFIRM
THAT ALL OTHER SYSTEM ISSUES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED.
SERVICE PROCEDURE

STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
8. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
9. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
10. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more
thorough air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and
stand outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching
the reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.
NOTE
THIS SHOULD NOT BE OVERDONE OR IT COULD DAMAGE THE PUMP.
11. Reprogram the PCM to the latest level available.
12. Test drive to verify repair.
VEHICLES BUILT AFTER APRIL 18, 2001, BUT PRIOR TO NOVEMBER 7, 2001
1. All 4X2 Sport Trac vehicles built after 4/18/2001 should omit this step and begin with Step 2
below, as these vehicles are production equipped with a high output displacement pump (Part
Number 1L2Z-3A674-GA) and do not require a pump update. All 4X4 and 4X2 Sport vehicles and
4X4 Sport Trac vehicles should replace the Power Steering Pump with a new high displacement
pump Part Number 3L2Z-3A674-CARM. BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE
DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM
CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section 211-02 for replacement
instructions.
2. Replace the Cooler Assembly with service part F77Z-3D746-GA. (This new cooler has a larger
fin pack to maintain lower fluid temperatures).
BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. The existing
cooler return line (hose attached to the gear outlet port) will be reused to ease installation. Attach a
clamp to the cooler return line to reduce fluid spillage during removal of the cooler. Disconnect the
existing cooler fin pack from the cooler return line by releasing the constant tension clamp. Remove
the return line on the new cooler to be installed and connect this new fin pack assembly to the
existing return line. Re-secure the constant tension clamp. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section
211-02 for complete replacement instructions.
3. Disconnect the power steering pressure line from the gear pressure port to allow replacement of
the check valve. DO NOT ATTACH A CLAMP TO THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE
AS IT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE TUNING CABLE INSIDE THE HOSE. Attach a clamp to the
COOLER RETURN LINE to reduce fluid flow out of the gear during removal of the pressure line.
Loosen the nut securing the power steering pressure hose to the gear inlet and detach it from the
gear. REPLACE THE 0-RING (388897-S) ON THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE NUT.
USE ROTUNDA TOOL 211-D-027 OR EQUIVALENT TO SIZE THE 0-RING. ANY OTHER
METHOD OF INSTALLATION WILL DEFORM IT, MAKING IT INEFFECTIVE.
4. Replace the check valve located in the steering gear pressure side inlet port with a No-Hole
Check Valve (E6DZ-3N603-A). This new check valve has a spring-loaded closure allowing flow in
only one direction, without the bleeder hole that is present in the current check valve.
CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY
RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Using a pick tool, remove the clip retaining
the check valve in the gear inlet. Then, using the pick, remove the check valve from the port. Install
the no-hole check valve WITH THE OPEN SIDE DOWNWARD into the pressure side inlet of gear
(Figure 1 and Figure 2). Reattach the power steering pressure hose to the inlet of the steering
gear.
5. Fill the power steering reservoir with MERCON' Multi-Purpose (ATF) Transmission Fluid
(XT-2-QDX) or equivalent.

This article supersedes TSB 01-25-01 to update the part numbers and the vehicle coverage.
ISSUE
Some 2001-2004 Explorer Sport Trac and 2001-2003 Explorer Sport vehicles may exhibit a
steering wheel shudder during low-speed turning maneuvers. This may be due to the interaction
between the tire and the road surface, which is amplified by the steering system. The condition will
vary according to ambient temperature, road surface friction, and steering wheel turning speed.
ACTION
As design changes have taken place in the steering system, it is important to note the vehicle build
date and follow the appropriate steps outlined in the following Service Procedure. Per the vehicle
build date it may be necessary to replace the power steering pump and cooler, and install a no-hole
check valve in the steering gear. Perform a thorough evacuation of air from the power steering
system after replacement/installation of parts and reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
to the latest level calibration.
NOTE
THE STEERING SHUDDER WILL NOT BE CORRECTED UNLESS THE SYSTEM IS PURGED
OF AIR WITH A VACUUM AT THE RESERVOIR. CORRECTLY FOLLOWING THE EVACUATION
PROCEDURE DETAILED BELOW WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TIME NEEDED TO
CORRECT THE SHUDDER. THE SHUDDER MAY STILL BE PRESENT AFTER REPLACEMENT
OF THE PARTS IF THE EVACUATION PROCEDURE IS NOT PROPERLY FOLLOWED.
NOTE
PRIOR TO PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE, PERFORM THE DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DESCRIBED IN THE APPROPRIATE WORKSHOP MANUAL, SECTION 211-00 TO CONFIRM
THAT ALL OTHER SYSTEM ISSUES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED.
SERVICE PROCEDURE

5. Fill the power steering reservoir with MERCON' Multi-Purpose (ATF) Transmission Fluid
(XT-2-QDX) or equivalent.
6. WITH THE ENGINE OFF, apply 25 inches of vacuum to the reservoir opening. Start the engine
and let idle for 1 minute. DO NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. If power steering reservoir
becomes low, remove the vacuum and refill.
7. WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING and NO VACUUM APPLIED TO THE SYSTEM, turn the
steering wheel to the left and then to the right end-of-travel stops, KNOCKING AGAINST EACH
STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
8. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
9. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
10. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more
thorough air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and
stand outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching
the reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.
NOTE
THIS SHOULD NOT BE OVERDONE OR IT COULD DAMAGE THE PUMP.
11. Reprogram the PCM to the latest level available.
12. Test drive to verify repair.
VEHICLES BUILT AFTER APRIL 18, 2001, BUT PRIOR TO NOVEMBER 7, 2001
1. All 4X2 Sport Trac vehicles built after 4/18/2001 should omit this step and begin with Step 2
below, as these vehicles are production equipped with a high output displacement pump (Part
Number 1L2Z-3A674-GA) and do not require a pump update. All 4X4 and 4X2 Sport vehicles and
4X4 Sport Trac vehicles should replace the Power Steering Pump with a new high displacement
pump Part Number 3L2Z-3A674-CARM. BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE
DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM
CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section 211-02 for replacement
instructions.
2. Replace the Cooler Assembly with service part F77Z-3D746-GA. (This new cooler has a larger
fin pack to maintain lower fluid temperatures).
BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. The existing
cooler return line (hose attached to the gear outlet port) will be reused to ease installation. Attach a
clamp to the cooler return line to reduce fluid spillage during removal of the cooler. Disconnect the
existing cooler fin pack from the cooler return line by releasing the constant tension clamp. Remove
the return line on the new cooler to be installed and connect this new fin pack assembly to the
existing return line. Re-secure the constant tension clamp. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section
211-02 for complete replacement instructions.
3. Disconnect the power steering pressure line from the gear pressure port to allow replacement of
the check valve. DO NOT ATTACH A CLAMP TO THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE
AS IT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE TUNING CABLE INSIDE THE HOSE. Attach a clamp to the
COOLER RETURN LINE to reduce fluid flow out of the gear during removal of the pressure line.
Loosen the nut securing the power steering pressure hose to the gear inlet and detach it from the
gear. REPLACE THE 0-RING (388897-S) ON THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE NUT.
USE ROTUNDA TOOL 211-D-027 OR EQUIVALENT TO SIZE THE 0-RING. ANY OTHER
METHOD OF INSTALLATION WILL DEFORM IT, MAKING IT INEFFECTIVE.
4. Replace the check valve located in the steering gear pressure side inlet port with a No-Hole
Check Valve (E6DZ-3N603-A). This new check valve has a spring-loaded closure allowing flow in
only one direction, without the bleeder hole that is present in the current check valve.
CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY
RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Using a pick tool, remove the clip retaining
the check valve in the gear inlet. Then, using the pick, remove the check valve from the port. Install
the no-hole check valve WITH THE OPEN SIDE DOWNWARD into the pressure side inlet of gear
(Figure 1 and Figure 2). Reattach the power steering pressure hose to the inlet of the steering
gear.

FORD: 2001-2003 EXPLORER SPORT 2001-2004 EXPLORER SPORT TRAC
This article supersedes TSB 01-25-01 to update the part numbers and the vehicle coverage.
ISSUE
Some 2001-2004 Explorer Sport Trac and 2001-2003 Explorer Sport vehicles may exhibit a
steering wheel shudder during low-speed turning maneuvers. This may be due to the interaction
between the tire and the road surface, which is amplified by the steering system. The condition will
vary according to ambient temperature, road surface friction, and steering wheel turning speed.
ACTION
As design changes have taken place in the steering system, it is important to note the vehicle build
date and follow the appropriate steps outlined in the following Service Procedure. Per the vehicle
build date it may be necessary to replace the power steering pump and cooler, and install a no-hole
check valve in the steering gear. Perform a thorough evacuation of air from the power steering
system after replacement/installation of parts and reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
to the latest level calibration.
NOTE
THE STEERING SHUDDER WILL NOT BE CORRECTED UNLESS THE SYSTEM IS PURGED
OF AIR WITH A VACUUM AT THE RESERVOIR. CORRECTLY FOLLOWING THE EVACUATION
PROCEDURE DETAILED BELOW WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TIME NEEDED TO
CORRECT THE SHUDDER. THE SHUDDER MAY STILL BE PRESENT AFTER REPLACEMENT
OF THE PARTS IF THE EVACUATION PROCEDURE IS NOT PROPERLY FOLLOWED.
NOTE
PRIOR TO PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE, PERFORM THE DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DESCRIBED IN THE APPROPRIATE WORKSHOP MANUAL, SECTION 211-00 TO CONFIRM
THAT ALL OTHER SYSTEM ISSUES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
VEHICLES BUILT PRIOR TO APRIL 18, 2001
1. Replace the Power Steering Pump with a new high displacement pump Part Number
3L2Z-3A674-CARM. BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION
COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND
NOISE. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section 211-02 for replacement instructions.
NOTE
DO NOT FILL, PURGE, OR LEAK CHECK THE SYSTEM AT THIS POINT SINCE THE
STEERING GEAR CHECK VALVE AND COOLER MUST ALSO BE REPLACED.
2. Replace the Cooler Assembly with service part F77Z-30746-GA. (This new cooler has a larger
fin pack to maintain lower fluid temperatures).
BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. The existing
cooler return line (hose attached to the gear outlet port) will be reused to ease installation. Attach a
clamp to the cooler return line to reduce fluid spillage during removal of the cooler. Disconnect the
existing cooler fin pack from the cooler return line by releasing the constant tension clamp. Remove
the return line on the new cooler to be installed and connect this new fin pack assembly to the
existing return line. Re-secure the constant tension clamp. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section
211-02 for complete replacement instructions.

Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Customer Interest for Power Steering Valve: > 03-19-12 > Sep > 03 > Steering Shudder on Low Speed Turns or When Stopped > Page 7439
3. Disconnect the power steering pressure line from the gear pressure port to allow replacement of
the check valve. DO NOT ATTACH A CLAMP. TO THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE
AS IT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE TUNING CABLE INSIDE THE HOSE. Attach a clamp to the
COOLER RETURN LINE to reduce fluid flow out of the gear during removal of the pressure line.
Loosen the nut securing the power steering pressure hose to the gear inlet and detach it from the
gear. REPLACE THE 0-RING (388897-S) ON THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE NUT.
USE ROTUNDA TOOL-211-D-027 OR EQUIVALENT TO SIZE THE 0-RING. ANY OTHER
METHOD OF INSTALLATION WILL DEFORM IT, MAKING IT INEFFECTIVE.
4. Replace the check valve located in the steering gear pressure side inlet port with a No-Hole
Check Valve (E60Z-3N603-A). This new check valve has a spring-loaded closure allowing flow in
only one direction, without the bleeder hole that is present in the current check valve. CLEAN ALL
AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN
SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Using a pick tool, remove the clip retaining the check
valve in the gear inlet. Then, using the pick, remove the check valve from the port. Install the
No-Hole Check Valve WITH THE OPEN SIDE DOWNWARD into the pressure side inlet of gear
(Figure 1 and Figure 2). Reattach the power steering pressure hose to the inlet of the steering
gear.

Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Customer Interest for Power Steering Valve: > 03-19-12 > Sep > 03 > Steering Shudder on Low Speed Turns or When Stopped > Page 7440
5. Fill the power steering reservoir with MERCON' Multi-Purpose (ATF) Transmission Fluid
(XT-2-QDX) or equivalent.
6. WITH THE ENGINE OFF, apply 25 inches of vacuum to the reservoir opening. Start the engine
and let idle for 1 minute. DO NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. If power steering reservoir
becomes low, remove the vacuum and refill.
7. WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING and NO VACUUM APPLIED TO THE SYSTEM, turn the
steering wheel to the left and then to the right end-of-travel stops, KNOCKING AGAINST EACH
STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
8. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
9. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
10. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more
thorough air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and
stand outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching
the reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.
NOTE
THIS SHOULD NOT BE OVERDONE OR IT COULD DAMAGE THE PUMP.
11. Reprogram the PCM to the latest level available.
12. Test drive to verify repair.

4. Replace the check valve located in the steering gear pressure side inlet port with a No-Hole
Check Valve (E6DZ-3N603-A). This new check valve has a spring-loaded closure allowing flow in
only one direction, without the bleeder hole that is present in the current check valve.
CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY
RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Using a pick tool, remove the clip retaining
the check valve in the gear inlet. Then, using the pick, remove the check valve from the port. Install
the no-hole check valve WITH THE OPEN SIDE DOWNWARD into the pressure side inlet of gear
(Figure 1 and Figure 2). Reattach the power steering pressure hose to the inlet of the steering
gear.
5. Fill the power steering reservoir with MERCON' Multi-Purpose (ATF) Transmission Fluid
(XT-2-QDX) or equivalent.

6. WITH THE ENGINE OFF, apply 25 inches of vacuum to the reservoir opening. Start the engine
and let idle for 1 minute. DO NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. If power steering reservoir
becomes low, remove the vacuum and refill.
7. WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING and NO VACUUM APPLIED TO THE SYSTEM, turn the
steering wheel to the left and then to the right end-of-travel stops, KNOCKING AGAINST EACH
STOP SEVERAL TIMES to purge remaining air from the steering system. Air bubbles should be
seen rising from the reservoir. Use of a shop light behind the reservoir will facilitate monitoring of
the release of air. Repeat this procedure four times in each direction.
NOTE
AT NO TIME DURING THIS PROCEDURE SHOULD THE STEERING WHEEL BE HELD ON THE
STOPS OR THE POWER STEERING PUMP COULD BE DAMAGED.
8. Recheck the fluid level and, if necessary, refill.
9. Test drive the vehicle and evaluate. Perform static parking maneuvers, IDEALLY ON PAINTED
CONCRETE OR SEALED ASPHALT, to evaluate the vehicle for steering shudder and any other
steering concerns.
10. If steering shudder is still present, or power steering pump "whine" is occurring, a more
thorough air evacuation may be needed. With 25 inches of vacuum applied, start the engine and
stand outside the vehicle. Turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times while watching
the reservoir for bubbles (using a shop light behind the reservoir), and listen for any sign of power
steering noise. When bubbles are no longer rising out of the reservoir, and any power steering
system noise has ceased, shut off the engine.
NOTE
THIS SHOULD NOT BE OVERDONE OR IT COULD DAMAGE THE PUMP.
11. Reprogram the PCM to the latest level available.
12. Test drive to verify repair.

FORD: 2001-2003 EXPLORER SPORT 2001-2004 EXPLORER SPORT TRAC
This article supersedes TSB 01-25-01 to update the part numbers and the vehicle coverage.
ISSUE
Some 2001-2004 Explorer Sport Trac and 2001-2003 Explorer Sport vehicles may exhibit a
steering wheel shudder during low-speed turning maneuvers. This may be due to the interaction
between the tire and the road surface, which is amplified by the steering system. The condition will
vary according to ambient temperature, road surface friction, and steering wheel turning speed.
ACTION
As design changes have taken place in the steering system, it is important to note the vehicle build
date and follow the appropriate steps outlined in the following Service Procedure. Per the vehicle
build date it may be necessary to replace the power steering pump and cooler, and install a no-hole
check valve in the steering gear. Perform a thorough evacuation of air from the power steering
system after replacement/installation of parts and reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
to the latest level calibration.
NOTE
THE STEERING SHUDDER WILL NOT BE CORRECTED UNLESS THE SYSTEM IS PURGED
OF AIR WITH A VACUUM AT THE RESERVOIR. CORRECTLY FOLLOWING THE EVACUATION
PROCEDURE DETAILED BELOW WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TIME NEEDED TO
CORRECT THE SHUDDER. THE SHUDDER MAY STILL BE PRESENT AFTER REPLACEMENT
OF THE PARTS IF THE EVACUATION PROCEDURE IS NOT PROPERLY FOLLOWED.
NOTE
PRIOR TO PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE, PERFORM THE DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DESCRIBED IN THE APPROPRIATE WORKSHOP MANUAL, SECTION 211-00 TO CONFIRM
THAT ALL OTHER SYSTEM ISSUES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
VEHICLES BUILT PRIOR TO APRIL 18, 2001
1. Replace the Power Steering Pump with a new high displacement pump Part Number
3L2Z-3A674-CARM. BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION
COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND
NOISE. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section 211-02 for replacement instructions.
NOTE
DO NOT FILL, PURGE, OR LEAK CHECK THE SYSTEM AT THIS POINT SINCE THE
STEERING GEAR CHECK VALVE AND COOLER MUST ALSO BE REPLACED.
2. Replace the Cooler Assembly with service part F77Z-30746-GA. (This new cooler has a larger
fin pack to maintain lower fluid temperatures).
BEFORE REPLACEMENT, CLEAN ALL AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. The existing
cooler return line (hose attached to the gear outlet port) will be reused to ease installation. Attach a
clamp to the cooler return line to reduce fluid spillage during removal of the cooler. Disconnect the
existing cooler fin pack from the cooler return line by releasing the constant tension clamp. Remove
the return line on the new cooler to be installed and connect this new fin pack assembly to the
existing return line. Re-secure the constant tension clamp. Refer to the Workshop Manual, Section
211-02 for complete replacement instructions.

3. Disconnect the power steering pressure line from the gear pressure port to allow replacement of
the check valve. DO NOT ATTACH A CLAMP. TO THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE
AS IT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE TUNING CABLE INSIDE THE HOSE. Attach a clamp to the
COOLER RETURN LINE to reduce fluid flow out of the gear during removal of the pressure line.
Loosen the nut securing the power steering pressure hose to the gear inlet and detach it from the
gear. REPLACE THE 0-RING (388897-S) ON THE POWER STEERING PRESSURE HOSE NUT.
USE ROTUNDA TOOL-211-D-027 OR EQUIVALENT TO SIZE THE 0-RING. ANY OTHER
METHOD OF INSTALLATION WILL DEFORM IT, MAKING IT INEFFECTIVE.
4. Replace the check valve located in the steering gear pressure side inlet port with a No-Hole
Check Valve (E60Z-3N603-A). This new check valve has a spring-loaded closure allowing flow in
only one direction, without the bleeder hole that is present in the current check valve. CLEAN ALL
AREAS WHERE DIRT INGESTION COULD OCCUR. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN
SYSTEM CONTAMINATION AND NOISE. Using a pick tool, remove the clip retaining the check
valve in the gear inlet. Then, using the pick, remove the check valve from the port. Install the

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

WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event
of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: Carry a live air bag module with the air bag and trim cover pointed away from your
body. This will reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: Do not set a live air bag module down with the trim cover face down. This will reduce
the risk of injury in the event of an accidental deployment.
WARNING: After deployment, the air bag surface can contain deposits of sodium hydroxide, a
product of the gas generant combustion that is irritating to the skin. Wash your hands with soap
and water afterwards.
WARNING: Never probe the connectors on the air bag module. Doing so can result in air bag
deployment, which can result in personal injury.
WARNING: Air bag modules with discolored or damaged trim covers must be installed new, not
repainted.
WARNING: Vehicle sensor orientation is critical for proper system operation. If a vehicle equipped
with an air bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) is involved in a collision, inspect the sensor
mounting bracket and wiring pigtail for deformation. Replace and properly position the sensor or
any other damaged Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) components, whether or not the air bag
is deployed.
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.
NOTE: Make sure the wheels are in the straight-ahead position.

Attachment I - Administrative Information
OASIS
OASIS must be used to determine vehicle eligibility.
IMPORTANT:
When an eligible vehicle is at the dealership for service, OASIS must be contacted to determine if
Owner Notification Program 01B77 is open. If 01B77 is listed in OASIS as open, it is important that
the vehicle is inspected for eligible tires. If the eligible vehicle is not equipped with 15-, 16-, or
17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT tires a claim must be submitted using labor operation 01B77A to
close the program. If an affected vehicle does not have 01B77 open, this may indicate that a refund
or tire replacement has already been processed on this vehicle.
Some Ford and Lincoln Mercury vehicles not listed in the AFFECTED TIRES AND VEHICLES list
may have 15-, 16-, or 17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT tires installed. These vehicles are covered
under this program, but will not be active in OASIS. Contact the Special Service Support Center at
1-800-325-5621 to obtain prior approval before performing the repair or issuing a refund. This will
insure that a previous repair/refund has not been performed on the vehicle.
CLAIMS PREPARATION AND SUBMISSION
^ Enter claims using DWE.
^ Refer to ACESII User Manual for claims preparation and submission information.
^ Enter information on a Recall/ONP claim type. DO NOT use a Warranty Claim type.

RELATED DAMAGE
Vehicle damage caused by a tire related failure is not covered by this program. Refer to the
Warranty and Policy Manual for proper claiming procedure for vehicles covered by the Ford
Bumper-to-Bumper Tire Warranty (model years 2001 and 2002). All other pre-2001 model year
vehicles with alleged tire related vehicle damage should be handled through the Firestone claims
process, or by referring the customers to their insurance company.
Damage related to replacement of tires should be handled as described in the Warranty and Policy
Manual.
OWNER REFUND
With the increased availability of replacement tires, it will no longer be necessary for customers to
pay out-of-pocket expenses for tires. Therefore, refund requests for tires purchased after
November 15, 2001 will no longer be granted. Owners will be notified of the refund expiration date
and will be directed to a Ford or Mercury dealer They are directed to an authorized retailer only if
the Ford or Mercury dealer cannot meet their scheduling needs or tires are not in stock. All Ford
and Mercury dealers (AtW and non-AtW dealers) are required to process refunds for customers
who purchase tires prior to November 15, 2001.
The following rules apply to refunds for tires purchased from August 1, 2001 through November 15,
2001:
Refunds will be processed for vehicles listed under "AFFECTED TIRES AND VEHICLES", and for
other Ford and Lincoln Mercury vehicles that have 15-. 16-, or 17-inch Wilderness AT tires
installed.
^ The customer must provide the original paid receipt (a copy of their paid receipt is acceptable on
an exception basis in instances where the owner requires the original for another purpose (e.g.
extended tire warranty or purchase rebate). The dealer will attach the receipt to the dealer file copy
of the refund claim (see claim instructions below).
^ Dealers will be reimbursed to immediately disable tires returned for a refund (see claiming
instructions for refunds and Attachment II for labor operations).
^ The tires must be purchased August 1, 2000 through November 15, 2001 to be eligible for a

AFFECTED VEHICLES: REFER TO DEALER LETTER FOR AFFECTED TIRES AND VEHICLES
OVERVIEW
This program details the replacement of 15-, 16-, and 17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT tires
regardless of production plant. You will need to perform a DOT code inspection prior to replacing
the 15, 16, or 17-inch Wilderness AT tires.
NOTE:
When lowering or raising an under-vehicle spare, DO NOT use power tools. Also make sure that
the spare is secure under the vehicle, and not swinging loose. The spare tire winch will ratchet
when the tire is completely stowed.
NOTE:
Radial ATX "TEMPORARY USE" spare tires are not included under this program, and should not
be replaced as part of this program.
NOTE:
Spare tires should always be replaced with the exact same size tire; otherwise the spare tire may
not store in the proper position on the vehicle.
INSPECTION
1. Inspect the vehicle tires (including the spare tire) for the presence of Firestone Wilderness AT
tires.
2. If Firestone Wilderness AT tires are present replace them with a suitable replacement from the
"Approved Tire List".
Note:
There may be cases where a vehicle is equipped with 15-, 16-, or 17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT
tire sizes that are not included on the Ford-approved replacement list. These tires are not original
equipment (OE) and, therefore, will not have an approved tire listed. In such cases, it is
recommended that the customer install the proper OE tire, or have a tire of suitable quality
installed. Reference the vehicle's "Safety Certification Label" and current "Ford Motor Company
Tire Price Guide" for OE or suitable replacement recommendations.
3. If only one Firestone Wilderness AT road tire is present on the vehicle, you will need to replace
the opposing tire on the same axle. However, if one (1) front and one (1) rear tire are Wilderness
AT you would not automatically replace all four (4) tires instead, you would replace the two (2)
Wilderness AT tires and place them on the same axle.
4. Record the DOT code from each removed tire(s) on the repair order.
5. Tires that are removed from vehicles must immediately be made unusable by either cutting
through the bead and DOT code with bolt cutters, or drilling a one-inch diameter hole (directly on
the DOT code to make the code unreadable) in the sidewall.
6. Adjust all tires to the proper inflation pressure, and release the vehicle. For specifications, refer
to the vehicle Owner's Manual or the vehicle certification label located on the driver's door opening.
NOTE:
Tires that are removed from vehicles under this program, and those in dealer inventory must
immediately be made unusable by either cutting the bead with bolt cutters or drilling a 1" diameter
hole (directly on the DOT code to make the code unreadable) in the sidewall. Defacing the DOT
code will prevent the tire from being used for an additional refund request.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is a 4X4, and is equipped with non-Firestone Wilderness AT tires on one axle, and the
replacement tires for the Firestone equipped axle causes a mismatch with the existing
non-Firestone axle, the customer is responsible for the tire mismatch. If the customer refuses to
purchase matching tires to correct the mismatch - the dealer should annotate the repair order to
reflect the customer's decision.

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

equipment tires can be found on the drivers side door placard.
2. Road test the vehicle on a smooth road for a minimum of 10 miles. Performance of the road test
at highway speeds is preferred.
NOTE
THIS MUST BE PERFORMED TO "EXERCISE" THE TIRES AND ELIMINATE "COLD" FLAT
SPOTTING THAT OCCURS DUE TO SHORT-PERIOD VEHICLE STORAGE OR PARKING. IF
THE VEHICLE'S TIRES ARE NOT EXERCISED FIRST, ACCURACY OF THE ROAD FORCE
MEASUREMENTS CAN VARY SIGNIFICANTLY, EVEN IF THE VEHICLE IS PARKED/STORED
IN ONE LOCATION FOR ONLY A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME (E.G. 20 MINUTES).
3. Perform the road force measurement IMMEDIATELY after exercising the tires. If the road force
measurement cannot be performed immediately, lift all four tires off the ground with a hoist or jack
stands to prevent measurement errors due to further flat spotting.
4. Assembly centering verification MUST be performed and PASSED prior to any road force
measurement.
For those with a software version other than 2.1 the centering verification must be performed
manually.
a. Spin assembly to measure. Record the assembly R1H.

Attachment I - Administrative Information
OASIS
OASIS must be used to determine vehicle eligibility.
IMPORTANT:
When an eligible vehicle is at the dealership for service, OASIS must be contacted to determine if
Owner Notification Program 01B77 is open. If 01B77 is listed in OASIS as open, it is important that
the vehicle is inspected for eligible tires. If the eligible vehicle is not equipped with 15-, 16-, or
17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT tires a claim must be submitted using labor operation 01B77A to
close the program. If an affected vehicle does not have 01B77 open, this may indicate that a refund
or tire replacement has already been processed on this vehicle.
Some Ford and Lincoln Mercury vehicles not listed in the AFFECTED TIRES AND VEHICLES list
may have 15-, 16-, or 17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT tires installed. These vehicles are covered
under this program, but will not be active in OASIS. Contact the Special Service Support Center at
1-800-325-5621 to obtain prior approval before performing the repair or issuing a refund. This will
insure that a previous repair/refund has not been performed on the vehicle.

AFFECTED VEHICLES: REFER TO DEALER LETTER FOR AFFECTED TIRES AND VEHICLES
OVERVIEW
This program details the replacement of 15-, 16-, and 17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT tires
regardless of production plant. You will need to perform a DOT code inspection prior to replacing
the 15, 16, or 17-inch Wilderness AT tires.
NOTE:
When lowering or raising an under-vehicle spare, DO NOT use power tools. Also make sure that
the spare is secure under the vehicle, and not swinging loose. The spare tire winch will ratchet
when the tire is completely stowed.
NOTE:
Radial ATX "TEMPORARY USE" spare tires are not included under this program, and should not
be replaced as part of this program.
NOTE:
Spare tires should always be replaced with the exact same size tire; otherwise the spare tire may
not store in the proper position on the vehicle.
INSPECTION
1. Inspect the vehicle tires (including the spare tire) for the presence of Firestone Wilderness AT
tires.
2. If Firestone Wilderness AT tires are present replace them with a suitable replacement from the
"Approved Tire List".
Note:
There may be cases where a vehicle is equipped with 15-, 16-, or 17-inch Firestone Wilderness AT
tire sizes that are not included on the Ford-approved replacement list. These tires are not original
equipment (OE) and, therefore, will not have an approved tire listed. In such cases, it is
recommended that the customer install the proper OE tire, or have a tire of suitable quality
installed. Reference the vehicle's "Safety Certification Label" and current "Ford Motor Company
Tire Price Guide" for OE or suitable replacement recommendations.
3. If only one Firestone Wilderness AT road tire is present on the vehicle, you will need to replace
the opposing tire on the same axle. However, if one (1) front and one (1) rear tire are Wilderness
AT you would not automatically replace all four (4) tires instead, you would replace the two (2)
Wilderness AT tires and place them on the same axle.
4. Record the DOT code from each removed tire(s) on the repair order.
5. Tires that are removed from vehicles must immediately be made unusable by either cutting
through the bead and DOT code with bolt cutters, or drilling a one-inch diameter hole (directly on
the DOT code to make the code unreadable) in the sidewall.
6. Adjust all tires to the proper inflation pressure, and release the vehicle. For specifications, refer
to the vehicle Owner's Manual or the vehicle certification label located on the driver's door opening.
NOTE:
Tires that are removed from vehicles under this program, and those in dealer inventory must
immediately be made unusable by either cutting the bead with bolt cutters or drilling a 1" diameter
hole (directly on the DOT code to make the code unreadable) in the sidewall. Defacing the DOT
code will prevent the tire from being used for an additional refund request.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is a 4X4, and is equipped with non-Firestone Wilderness AT tires on one axle, and the
replacement tires for the Firestone equipped axle causes a mismatch with the existing
non-Firestone axle, the customer is responsible for the tire mismatch. If the customer refuses to
purchase matching tires to correct the mismatch - the dealer should annotate the repair order to
reflect the customer's decision.

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

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

Blower Motor Resistor: Description and Operation
The front heater blower motor switch resistor has the following features:
- The assembly is located in the engine compartment on the evaporator housing next to the blower
motor assembly.
- Three resistor elements are mounted on the resistor board to provide four blower motor speeds.
- Depending on the heater blower motor switch position, series resistance is added or bypassed in
the A/C blower motor circuit to decrease or increase A/C blower motor speed.
- An overheating device (thermal limiter) will open the resistor coil circuit when the temperature
reaches 121°C (250°F), interrupting the blower motor operation in all speeds except high.
- The thermal limiter cannot be reset and is not serviceable.
The second row heater blower motor switch resistor has the following features:
- The assembly is located in the high-series flow-through floor console next to the blower motor
assembly.
- There is one resistor element are mounted on the resistor board to provide two blower motor
speeds.
- Depending on the heater blower motor switch position, series resistance is added or bypassed in
the A/C blower motor circuit to decrease or increase A/C blower motor speed.
- An overheating device (thermal limiter) will open the resistor coil circuit when the temperature
reaches 121°C (250°F), interrupting the blower motor operation in all speeds.
- The thermal limiter cannot be reset and is not serviceable.

Compressor Clutch: Description and Operation
NOTE:
- Internal A/C compressor components are not serviced separately. The FS-10 A/C compressor is
serviced only as an assembly. The A/C clutch, A/C clutch pulley, A/C clutch field coil and the shaft
seal are serviceable.
- Installation of a new suction accumulator is not required when repairing the air conditioning
system except when there is physical evidence of system contamination from a failed A/C
compressor or damage to the suction accumulator.
The FS-10 A/C compressor has the following characteristics:
- A ten-cylinder swashplate design utilizing the tangential design mount.
- A one-piece lip-type seal (replaceable from the front of the A/C compressor) is used to seal it at
the shaft opening in the assembly.
- Five double-acting pistons operate within the cylinder assembly. The pistons are actuated by a
swashplate that changes the rotating action of the shaft to a reciprocating force.
- Reed-type discharge valves are located between the cylinder assembly and the head at each end
of the A/C compressor.
- The A/C compressor uses PAG Refrigerant Compressor Oil (R-134a Systems) or equivalent. This
oil contains special additives required for the A/C compressor.
- The A/C compressor oil from vehicles equipped with an FS-10 A/C compressor may have a dark
color while maintaining a normal oil viscosity. This is normal for this A/C compressor because
carbon from the piston rings will discolor the oil.
The magnetic A/C clutch has the following characteristics:
- It drives the compressor shaft.
- When battery positive voltage (B+) is applied to the A/C clutch field coil, the A/C clutch is drawn
toward the A/C clutch pulley.
- The magnetic force locks the A/C clutch and the A/C clutch pulley together as one unit, causing
the compressor shaft to rotate.
- When B+ is removed from the A/C clutch field coil, springs in the A/C clutch move the A/C clutch
away from the A/C clutch pulley.

Compressor Clutch Relay: Description and Operation
Wide Open Throttle A/C Cut-Off
The wide open throttle A/C cutoff relay (may be referred to as the A/C clutch relay) is normally
open. There is no direct electrical connection between the A/C switch or EATC Module and the A/C
clutch. The PCM will receive a signal indicating that A/C is requested (for some applications, this
message is sent through the BUS + and BUS - circuits). When A/C is requested, the PCM will
check other A/C related inputs that are available (such as ACP (SW), A/C Cycling Switch (ACCS)).
If these inputs indicate A/C operation is OK, and the engine conditions are OK (such as coolant
temperature, engine rpm, throttle position), the PCM will ground the Wide Open Throttle A/C
(WAC) output, closing the relay contacts and sending voltage to the A/C clutch.

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

Condenser HVAC: Testing and Inspection
ON-VEHICLE LEAK TEST
1. Discharge and recover the refrigerant. 2. Disconnect the suspect A/C evaporator core or A/C
condenser core from the A/C system.
NOTE: DO NOT leak test an A/C evaporator core with the suction accumulator/drier attached to the
core tubes.
3. Clean the spring lock couplings. 4. Connect the appropriate test fittings from the R-12/R-134a Air
Conditioning Test Fitting Set to the evaporator or condenser tube connections. 5. Connect the red
and blue hoses from the R-134a Manifold Gauge Set to the test fittings on the A/C evaporator core
or A/C condenser core.
Connect the yellow hose to a known good vacuum pump.
NOTE: The automatic shut-off valves on some gauge set hoses do not open when connected to
the test fittings. If available, use hoses without shut-off valves. If hoses with shut-off valves are
used, make sure the valve opens when attached to the test fittings or install an adapter which will
activate the valve. The test is not valid if the shut-off valve does not open.
6. Open both gauge set valves and start the vacuum pump. Allow the vacuum pump to operate for
a minimum of 45 minutes after the gauge set low
pressure gauge indicates 101 kPa (30 in-Hg). The 45 minute evacuation is necessary to remove
any refrigerant from oil left in the A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core. If the refrigerant is
not completely removed from the oil, outgassing will degrade the vacuum and appear as a
refrigerant leak.
7. If the low pressure gauge reading will not drop to 101 kPa (30 in-Hg) when the valves on the
gauge and manifold set are open and the vacuum
pump is operating, close the gauge set valves and observe the low pressure gauge. If the pressure
rises rapidly to zero, a large leak is indicated. Recheck the test fitting connections and gauge set
connections before installing a new A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core.
8. After evacuating for 45 minutes, close the gauge set valves and stop the vacuum pump.
Observe the low pressure gauge; it should remain at the
101 kPa (30 in-Hg) mark. If the low pressure gauge reading rises 34 or more kPa (10 or more in-Hg) of vacuum from the 101
kPa (30 in-Hg) position in 10 minutes, a leak is indicated.
- If a very small leak is suspected, wait 30 minutes and observe the vacuum gauge.
- If a small amount of vacuum is lost, operate the vacuum pump with gauge valves open for an
additional 30 minutes to remove any remaining refrigerant from the oil in the A/C evaporator core or
A/C condenser core. Then recheck for loss of vacuum.
- If a very small leak is suspected, allow the system to set overnight with vacuum applied and
check for vacuum loss.
9. If the A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core does leak, as verified by the above procedure,
install a new A/C evaporator core or A/C
condenser core.

Coupler HVAC: Description and Operation
Spring Lock Coupling
Spring Lock Coupling
The spring lock coupling is a refrigerant line coupling held together by a garter spring inside a
circular cage. When the coupling is connected together, the flared end of the female fitting slips behind the garter
spring inside the cage of the male fitting.
- The garter spring and cage then prevent the flared end of the female fitting from pulling out of the
cage.
- Three O-ring seals are used to seal between the two halves of the spring lock couplings.
- Use only the O-ring seals listed in the Ford Master Parts Catalog for the spring lock coupling.
- A plastic indicator ring may be used on the spring lock couplings of the A/C evaporator core to
indicate, during vehicle assembly, that the coupling is connected. Once the coupling is connected,
the indicator ring is no longer necessary but will remain captive by the coupling near the cage
opening.
- The indicator ring may also be used during service operations to indicate connection of the
coupling.
- An A/C tube lock coupling clip may be used to secure the coupling but is not required.
Peanut Fitting
The A/C condenser core uses the peanut shaped refrigerant fittings instead of spring lock
couplings.

- The male and female blocks of the peanut fitting are retained with a nut.
- An O-ring seal is installed around the tube on the male block.
- The female block is welded to the tube and is not adjustable.
- Support the female fitting with a wrench to prevent twisting of the tubes.
- The male block will pivot around the tube to allow for alignment with the female block during
assembly.
- When correctly assembled the male and female fittings should be flush.
- Use only the O-ring seals listed in the Ford Master Parts Catalog for the peanut fitting.

Evaporator Core: Testing and Inspection
ON-VEHICLE LEAK TEST
1. Discharge and recover the refrigerant. 2. Disconnect the suspect A/C evaporator core or A/C
condenser core from the A/C system.
NOTE: DO NOT leak test an A/C evaporator core with the suction accumulator/drier attached to the
core tubes.
3. Clean the spring lock couplings. 4. Connect the appropriate test fittings from the R-12/R-134a Air
Conditioning Test Fitting Set to the evaporator or condenser tube connections. 5. Connect the red
and blue hoses from the R-134a Manifold Gauge Set to the test fittings on the A/C evaporator core
or A/C condenser core.
Connect the yellow hose to a known good vacuum pump.
NOTE: The automatic shut-off valves on some gauge set hoses do not open when connected to
the test fittings. If available, use hoses without shut-off valves. If hoses with shut-off valves are
used, make sure the valve opens when attached to the test fittings or install an adapter which will
activate the valve. The test is not valid if the shut-off valve does not open.
6. Open both gauge set valves and start the vacuum pump. Allow the vacuum pump to operate for
a minimum of 45 minutes after the gauge set low
pressure gauge indicates 101 kPa (30 in-Hg). The 45 minute evacuation is necessary to remove
any refrigerant from oil left in the A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core. If the refrigerant is
not completely removed from the oil, outgassing will degrade the vacuum and appear as a
refrigerant leak.
7. If the low pressure gauge reading will not drop to 101 kPa (30 in-Hg) when the valves on the
gauge and manifold set are open and the vacuum
pump is operating, close the gauge set valves and observe the low pressure gauge. If the pressure
rises rapidly to zero, a large leak is indicated. Recheck the test fitting connections and gauge set
connections before installing a new A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core.
8. After evacuating for 45 minutes, close the gauge set valves and stop the vacuum pump.
Observe the low pressure gauge; it should remain at the
101 kPa (30 in-Hg) mark. If the low pressure gauge reading rises 34 or more kPa (10 or more in-Hg) of vacuum from the 101
kPa (30 in-Hg) position in 10 minutes, a leak is indicated.
- If a very small leak is suspected, wait 30 minutes and observe the vacuum gauge.
- If a small amount of vacuum is lost, operate the vacuum pump with gauge valves open for an
additional 30 minutes to remove any remaining refrigerant from the oil in the A/C evaporator core or
A/C condenser core. Then recheck for loss of vacuum.
- If a very small leak is suspected, allow the system to set overnight with vacuum applied and
check for vacuum loss.
9. If the A/C evaporator core or A/C condenser core does leak, as verified by the above procedure,
install a new A/C evaporator core or A/C
condenser core.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

Refrigerant: Vehicle Damage Warnings
CAUTION:
- Good ventilation is necessary in the area where electronic A/C leak testing is to be carried out. If
the surrounding air is contaminated with refrigerant gas, the leak detector will indicate this gas all
the time. Odors from other chemicals such as anti-freeze, diesel fuel, disc brake cleaner, or other
cleaning solvents can cause the same problem. A fan, even in a well-ventilated area, is very helpful
in removing small traces of contamination from the air that might affect the leak detector.
- If contaminated refrigerant is detected, DO NOT recover the refrigerant into R-134a or R-12
recovery/recycling equipment.

SPECIAL TOOL(S)
Refrigerant System Recovery
NOTE: Ford Motor Company recommends use of an A/C service center to carry out recovery,
evacuation, and charging of the refrigerant system. If an A/C service center is not available,
refrigerant system recovery, evacuation, and charging may be accomplished using a separate
recovery station, vacuum pump, charging cylinder, and manifold gauge set.
1. Prior to recovering the refrigerant system, you must verify the purity of the refrigerant. 2. Connect
an R-134a A/C service center to the low- and high-pressure service gauge port valves.
NOTE: Some R-134a service centers require the use of an A/C manifold gauge set.
3. Recover the refrigerant from the system following the operating instructions provided by the
equipment manufacturer. 4. Once the service center has recovered the vehicle A/C system
refrigerant, close the service center inlet valve (if equipped). Then switch off the
power supply.
5. Allow the vehicle A/C system to remain closed for about two minutes. Observe the system
vacuum level as shown on the gauge. If the vacuum
does not decrease, disconnect the refrigerant center hose(s).
6. If the system vacuum does decrease, repeat Steps 2 through 5 until the vacuum level remains
stable for two minutes. 7. Carry out the required repairs.

Refrigerant: Service and Repair Identifying Refrigerants
Delux A/C Refrigerant Analyzer
SPECIAL TOOL(S)
1. Follow the instructions included with the Deluxe Refrigerant Diagnostic Tool to obtain the sample
for testing.
NOTE: An A/C refrigerant analyzer must be used to identify gas samples taken directly from the
refrigeration system or storage containers prior to recovering or charging the refrigerant system.
2. The diagnostic tool will display one of the following:
- If the purity level of R-134a or R-12 is 98% or greater by weight, the green "PASS" Light Emitting
Diode (LED) will light. The weight concentrations of R-134a, R-12, R-22, hydrocarbons, and air will
be displayed on the digital display.
- If refrigerants R-134a or R-12 do not meet the 98% purity levels, the red "FAIL" LED will light and
a horn will sound alerting the user of potential hazards. The weight concentrations of R-134a, R-12,
R-22, and hydrocarbons will be displayed on the digital display.
- If hydrocarbon concentrations are 2% or greater by weight, the red "FAIL" LED will light,
"Hydrocarbon High" will be displayed on the digital display, and a horn will sound alerting the user
of potential hazards. The weight concentrations of R-134a, R-12, R-22, and hydrocarbons will also
be displayed on the digital display.
3. The percentage of air contained in the sample will be displayed if the R-134a or R-12 content is
98% or greater. The diagnostic tool eliminates the
effect of air when determining the refrigerant sample content because air is not considered a
contaminant, although air can affect A/C system performance. When the diagnostic tool has
determined that a refrigerant source is pure (R-134a or R-12 is 98% or greater by weight) and air
concentration levels are 2% or greater by weight, the diagnostic tool will prompt the user if an air
purge is desired.
4. If contaminated refrigerant is detected, repeat the refrigerant identification test to verify that the
refrigerant is indeed contaminated. 5. Recover any contaminated refrigerant using suitable
recovery-only equipment designed for capturing and storing contaminated refrigerant.
CAUTION: If contaminated refrigerant is detected, DO NOT recover the refrigerant into R-134a or
R-12 recovery/recycling equipment.

Compressor Clutch Relay: Description and Operation
Wide Open Throttle A/C Cut-Off
The wide open throttle A/C cutoff relay (may be referred to as the A/C clutch relay) is normally
open. There is no direct electrical connection between the A/C switch or EATC Module and the A/C
clutch. The PCM will receive a signal indicating that A/C is requested (for some applications, this
message is sent through the BUS + and BUS - circuits). When A/C is requested, the PCM will
check other A/C related inputs that are available (such as ACP (SW), A/C Cycling Switch (ACCS)).
If these inputs indicate A/C operation is OK, and the engine conditions are OK (such as coolant
temperature, engine rpm, throttle position), the PCM will ground the Wide Open Throttle A/C
(WAC) output, closing the relay contacts and sending voltage to the A/C clutch.

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

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

ISSUE 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.

DTCs that use fault PIDs do not identify the specific concern. 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 Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
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 8145
^ 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.

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

ISSUE 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.

DTCs that use fault PIDs do not identify the specific concern. 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 Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
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
8245
^ 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

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.

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

This article supersedes TSB 07-7-8 to update the vehicle application.
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.

DTCs that use fault PIDs do not identify the specific concern. 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)

8272
^ 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.

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

Seat Belt: Description and Operation
NOTE: When installing a new 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, three-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 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.
WARNING: AFTER ANY VEHICLE COLLISION, THE SAFETY BELT SYSTEM AT ALL
OUTBOARD SEATING POSITIONS (EXCEPT DRIVER, WHICH HAS NO "AUTOMATIC
LOCKING RETRACTOR" FEATURE) MUST BE CHECKED BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN TO
VERIFY THAT THE "AUTOMATIC LOCKING RETRACTOR" FEATURE FOR CHILD SEATS IS

ACCORDING TO THE PROCEDURES IN THE WORKSHOP MANUAL. FAILURE TO REPLACE
THE BELT AND RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY IN
COLLISIONS.
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.
This safety belt system has a retractor assembly that 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.

(ALR) feature. Then allow the belt to retract freely in
the ALR mode, and the retractor force set the correct belt tightness.
3. Pull on the shoulder belt to check that the belt has remained in the ALR mode. If the belt is not
locked, install a new belt and retractor assembly.
The safety belt should remain locked in the ALR mode across an empty seat.
4. To verify that the safety belt still automatically disengages from the ALR mode correctly, with the
D-ring adjusted to the full up position, if
applicable, unlatch the safety belt tongue from the buckle and allow the safety belt to retract to its
stowed position. Pull on the shoulder belt to verify that the retractor assembly has converted
automatically out of the ALR mode. If the belt remains locked in the stowed position, a new belt and
retractor assembly must be installed. The safety belt should extract freely.

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.

DTCs that use fault PIDs do not identify the specific concern. 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 Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Restraint Systems > Safety Belt Systems <--> [Seat Belt Systems] > Seat Belt Control Module >
Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Restraints - Control Module DTCs & Associated Fault PIDs > Page
8355
^ 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.

Seat Belt Extension: Description and Operation
In certain cases, the safety belt may be too short even when it is fully extended. About 20 cm (8 in)
can be added to the belt length by using a safety belt extension. Safety belt extensions are
available at no cost from any Ford or Lincoln-Mercury dealer parts department. Safety belt
extensions are only available with black webbing.
There are two extension assemblies available, one for the front seating positions and one for the
rear seating positions, and they are not interchangeable.
Use only extensions manufactured by the same supplier of the safety belt. Manufacturer
identification is located at the end of the webbing on the label. Also, use the safety belt extension
only if the safety belt is too short for the occupant when fully extended. Do not use an extension to
change the fit of the shoulder belt across the torso.

Seat Belt Retractor: Description and Operation
NOTE: When installing a new 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, three-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 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.
WARNING: AFTER ANY VEHICLE COLLISION, THE SAFETY BELT SYSTEM AT ALL
OUTBOARD SEATING POSITIONS (EXCEPT DRIVER, WHICH HAS NO "AUTOMATIC
LOCKING RETRACTOR" FEATURE) MUST BE CHECKED BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN TO
VERIFY THAT THE "AUTOMATIC LOCKING RETRACTOR" FEATURE FOR CHILD SEATS IS
STILL FUNCTIONING PROPERLY, IN ADDITION TO OTHER CHECKS FOR PROPER SAFETY
BELT SYSTEM FUNCTION. A BELT AND RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED IF
THE SAFETY BELT ASSEMBLY'S "AUTOMATIC LOCKING RETRACTOR" FEATURE OR ANY
OTHER SAFETY BELT FUNCTION IS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY WHEN CHECKED
ACCORDING TO THE PROCEDURES IN THE WORKSHOP MANUAL. FAILURE TO REPLACE
THE BELT AND RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY IN
COLLISIONS.
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.
This safety belt system has a retractor assembly that 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.

1. Extend the safety belt to latch the tongue into the buckle across an empty seat without slack in
the safety belt, with the seat in the full down and
rearmost position, seat back in an upright position, and if applicable, the D-ring adjusted in the full
down position.
2. Pull the shoulder belt to full extension to engage the retractor's Automatic Locking Retractor
(ALR) feature. Then allow the belt to retract freely in
the ALR mode, and the retractor force set the correct belt tightness.
3. Pull on the shoulder belt to check that the belt has remained in the ALR mode. If the belt is not
locked, install a new belt and retractor assembly.
The safety belt should remain locked in the ALR mode across an empty seat.
4. To verify that the safety belt still automatically disengages from the ALR mode correctly, with the
D-ring adjusted to the full up position, if
applicable, unlatch the safety belt tongue from the buckle and allow the safety belt to retract to its
stowed position. Pull on the shoulder belt to verify that the retractor assembly has converted
automatically out of the ALR mode. If the belt remains locked in the stowed position, a new belt and
retractor assembly must be installed. The safety belt should extract freely.

Impact Sensor: Description and Operation
WARNING: MOUNTING ORIENTATION OF THE IMPACT SENSORS AND THE RCM IS
CRITICAL FOR PROPER SYSTEM OPERATION. IF A VEHICLE HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN A
COLLISION IN WHICH THE CENTER TUNNEL AREA HAS BEEN DAMAGED, INSPECT THE
RCM MOUNTING AREA FOR DEFORMATION. INSPECT THE IMPACT SENSOR MOUNTING
AREA FOR DAMAGE. IF DAMAGED, THE RCM AND SENSORS MUST BE REPLACED
WHETHER OR NOT THE AIR BAGS HAVE DEPLOYED. IN ADDITION, MAKE SURE THE
MOUNTING AREA OF THE RCM AND IMPACT SENSORS ARE RESTORED TO THE ORIGINAL
PRODUCTION CONFIGURATION.
The impact sensors provide data to the RCM for use in calculating impact severity. This is
accomplished using various electrical and electro-mechanical sensors located throughout the
vehicle. Side impact sensors are located on the LH and RH B-pillars.

ISSUE Some vehicles may experience a concern with the keyless entry keypad. In order to
properly diagnose the concern with the keyless entry keypad, it is important to identify whether the
keypad is a factory installed style (wired) or a Genuine Ford Accessory (GFA) radio frequency (RF)
style keypad.
ACTION Use the following Service Procedure to identify GFA RF keypads and provide diagnostic
service tips.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
IDENTIFICATION:
1. Production installed keyless entry keypads are mounted flush with the surface of the vehicle and
are wired directly to the module controlling the vehicle's keyless entry system. This style keypad
can be diagnosed using the appropriate Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 501-14.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Accessories and Optional Equipment > Antitheft and Alarm Systems > Keyless Entry > Keyless
Entry Key-Pad > Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Keyless Entry - Keypad Diagnostics > Page 8452
2. Dealer installed GFA RF keypads are adhesive backed and protrude approximately 1/2" (13
mm) from the surface of the vehicle and there are no specific diagnostics available in the WSM
(Figure 1).
NOTE
THIS RF KEYPAD WAS ALSO US[D IN PRODUCTION ON 2004 F-SUPER DUTY VEHICLES
BUILT PRIOR TO 12/3/2003. REFER TO WSM, SECTION 501-14 FOR RF KEYPAD
DIAGNOSTICS FOR THESE VEHICLES.
GENUINE FORD ACCESSORY KEYPAD DIAGNOSTIC TIPS
1. The keypad operates similarly to a remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter and is programmed
using a similar procedure.
Although the RF keypad is not specifically addressed in the WSM, the RKE transmitter
programming portion of the WSM, Section 501-14 can be used as a guide
NOTE
THE 7-8 AND 9-0 BUTTONS ON THE KEYPAD MUST BE PRESSED SIMULTANEOUSLY
DURING THE PROCEDURE IN ORDER FOR THE KEYPAD TO BE RECOGNIZED AS AN
ADDITIONAL REMOTE TRANSMITTER.
Since the GFA RF keypad is essentially another RKE transmitter, the transmitter diagnostic
pinpoint tests in the vehicle's WSM can also be referenced even though the buttons serving the
lock / unlock functions will differ
2. The GFA RF keypad is serviced as an assembly. The internal battery cannot be replaced
separately.
3. If the master code or owner selectable code is lost or forgotten, the GFA RF keypad must be
replaced. These codes are not stored in any vehicle module (with the exception of 2004 F-Super
Duty vehicles produced prior to 12/3/2003).
4. The GFA RF keypad and all RKE transmitters (the number of transmitters allowable will vary by
vehicle) must be reprogrammed together anytime the keypad is replaced, an RKE transmitter is
replaced, or the module controlling the keyless entry system on the vehicle (GEM/SJB/VSM/DDM
etc.) is replaced.
NOTE
THERE IS AN EXCEPTION TO TIP 4 FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH INTEGRATED
KEYHEAD TRANSMITTERS (IKTs) (FUSION/MILAN/ZEPHYR). THE GFA RF KEYPADS FOR
VEHICLES WITH IKTs MUST BE PROGRAMMED INDEPENDENTLY FROM THE IKTs. TURN
THE IGNITION FROM "OFF" TO "RUN" 8 TIMES WITHIN 10 SECONDS, WITH THE 8TH TIME
ENDING IN "RUN". THE DOOR LOCKS WILL CYCLE TO CONFIRM ENTERING
PROGRAMMING MODE. PRESS THE 7-8 AND 9-0 BUTTON ON THE KEYPAD
SIMULTANEOUSLY TO SEND A LOCK SIGNAL. TURN IGNITION TO OFF. THE LOCKS WILL
CYCLE AGAIN TO INDICATE THE END OF THE PROGRAMMING MODE.
5. The keypad will normally illuminate for 5 seconds after one or more buttons are pressed, and the
illumination will immediately turn off if the 7-8 and 9-0 buttons are pressed simultaneously (lock all
doors). The keypad contains an optical sensor and will not illuminate under bright lighting
conditions. The keypad may only illuminate briefly in colder temperatures in order to maximize the
battery power available to transmit a lock/unlock signal. The temperature at which this occurs will
vary depending upon the keypad battery age and condition. Both of these conditions are a normal
function of the Power Save Mode and do not indicate a need to replace the keypad.
6. After entering the keypad code, the system may unlock the driver's door, lock it, then unlock it
again, and the keypad will not even briefly illuminate. This is the Alert Mode and is an indication
that battery power is very low and the keypad must be replaced.
7. The keypad also contains an Anti-scan feature. If the wrong code has been entered 7 times (35
consecutive button presses) the keypad is disabled for one minute and the keypad lamp will flash
during this time.

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

Module] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8464
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Module] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8466
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Accessories and Optional Equipment > Multifunction Electronic Control Modules <--> [General
Module] > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8467
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Diagram Information and Instructions
Multifunction Electronic Control Modules: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8560
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8562
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Accessories and Optional Equipment > Relays and Modules - Accessories and Optional
Equipment > Multifunction Electronic Control Modules <--> [General Module] > Component Information > Diagrams >
Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8563
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Accessories and Optional Equipment > Towing / Trailer System > Trailer Connector >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8614
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Accessories and Optional Equipment > Towing / Trailer System > Trailer Connector >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8616
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Accessories and Optional Equipment > Towing / Trailer System > Trailer Connector >
Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8617
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Trailer Connector: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

first component are shown.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between

Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8660
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Accessories and Optional Equipment > Towing / Trailer System > Trailer Lamps > Component
Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8661
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))

> Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8702
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.

Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Accessories and Optional Equipment > Trailer Connector > Component Information > Diagrams
> Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 8705
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Rear Door Window Motor: Service and Repair Rear Window Motor Initialization
CAUTION: Make sure that no obstructions are present in the power rear window system when
carrying out this procedure.
NOTE:
^ This procedure must be carried out when repairs are performed on any part of the power rear
window system including when: the power rear window motor is removed from the window
regulator drum housing, a new power rear motor is installed, a new power rear window regulator is
installed, a new power rear window module is installed, and any operation in which grease or
lubricants are applied to the power rear window system.
^ All power rear window components (window glass module, window regulator, window motor, and
glass runs) must be installed and torqued to specification before carrying out this procedure.
^ Steps 1-6 must be completed within 30 seconds. The entire procedure must be completed within
five minutes.
^ Once the ignition key is turned to the ON position in Step 6, it must remain on until the entire
procedure is completed.
^ Steps 7 and 9 require that the power rear window control switch be held in the closed position
until the power rear window motor stalls the window in the upper header seal. Step 8 requires that
the window control switch be momentarily turned to the open position.
1. Start with the ignition in the OFF position. 2. Turn the ignition to the ON position. 3. Press the
power rear window control switch vent button six times. 4. Turn the ignition to the OFF position. 5.
Press the power rear window control switch vent button six times. 6. Turn the ignition to the ON
position. The power rear window will move up-down-up-down approximately 20 mm (0.8 in). This
movement
indicates that the power rear window motor has entered initialized mode.
7. Rotate and hold the power rear window control switch to the closed position until the window
stalls in the upper header seal. 8. Momentarily rotate the power rear window control switch to the
open position and release. The power rear window will carry out a one-touch
down operation until the window stalls at the bottom of the travel stop designed into the window
regulator.
9. Rotate and hold the power rear window control switch to the closed position until the window
stalls into the upper header seal. Once this operation
is complete, the window will move up-down-up-down approximately 20 mm (0.8 in). This movement
indicates that the power rear window motor has been successfully initialized.
10. Verify correct operation of the power rear window by moving the window to the fully open, vent,
then fully closed positions.

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

ISSUE Some vehicles may experience a concern with the keyless entry keypad. In order to
properly diagnose the concern with the keyless entry keypad, it is important to identify whether the
keypad is a factory installed style (wired) or a Genuine Ford Accessory (GFA) radio frequency (RF)
style keypad.
ACTION Use the following Service Procedure to identify GFA RF keypads and provide diagnostic
service tips.
SERVICE PROCEDURE
IDENTIFICATION:
1. Production installed keyless entry keypads are mounted flush with the surface of the vehicle and
are wired directly to the module controlling the vehicle's keyless entry system. This style keypad
can be diagnosed using the appropriate Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 501-14.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Body and Frame > Locks > Keyless Entry > Keyless Entry Key-Pad > Component Information >
Technical Service Bulletins > Keyless Entry - Keypad Diagnostics > Page 9058
2. Dealer installed GFA RF keypads are adhesive backed and protrude approximately 1/2" (13
mm) from the surface of the vehicle and there are no specific diagnostics available in the WSM
(Figure 1).
NOTE
THIS RF KEYPAD WAS ALSO US[D IN PRODUCTION ON 2004 F-SUPER DUTY VEHICLES
BUILT PRIOR TO 12/3/2003. REFER TO WSM, SECTION 501-14 FOR RF KEYPAD
DIAGNOSTICS FOR THESE VEHICLES.
GENUINE FORD ACCESSORY KEYPAD DIAGNOSTIC TIPS
1. The keypad operates similarly to a remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter and is programmed
using a similar procedure.
Although the RF keypad is not specifically addressed in the WSM, the RKE transmitter
programming portion of the WSM, Section 501-14 can be used as a guide
NOTE
THE 7-8 AND 9-0 BUTTONS ON THE KEYPAD MUST BE PRESSED SIMULTANEOUSLY
DURING THE PROCEDURE IN ORDER FOR THE KEYPAD TO BE RECOGNIZED AS AN
ADDITIONAL REMOTE TRANSMITTER.
Since the GFA RF keypad is essentially another RKE transmitter, the transmitter diagnostic
pinpoint tests in the vehicle's WSM can also be referenced even though the buttons serving the
lock / unlock functions will differ
2. The GFA RF keypad is serviced as an assembly. The internal battery cannot be replaced
separately.
3. If the master code or owner selectable code is lost or forgotten, the GFA RF keypad must be
replaced. These codes are not stored in any vehicle module (with the exception of 2004 F-Super
Duty vehicles produced prior to 12/3/2003).
4. The GFA RF keypad and all RKE transmitters (the number of transmitters allowable will vary by
vehicle) must be reprogrammed together anytime the keypad is replaced, an RKE transmitter is
replaced, or the module controlling the keyless entry system on the vehicle (GEM/SJB/VSM/DDM
etc.) is replaced.
NOTE
THERE IS AN EXCEPTION TO TIP 4 FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH INTEGRATED
KEYHEAD TRANSMITTERS (IKTs) (FUSION/MILAN/ZEPHYR). THE GFA RF KEYPADS FOR
VEHICLES WITH IKTs MUST BE PROGRAMMED INDEPENDENTLY FROM THE IKTs. TURN
THE IGNITION FROM "OFF" TO "RUN" 8 TIMES WITHIN 10 SECONDS, WITH THE 8TH TIME
ENDING IN "RUN". THE DOOR LOCKS WILL CYCLE TO CONFIRM ENTERING
PROGRAMMING MODE. PRESS THE 7-8 AND 9-0 BUTTON ON THE KEYPAD
SIMULTANEOUSLY TO SEND A LOCK SIGNAL. TURN IGNITION TO OFF. THE LOCKS WILL
CYCLE AGAIN TO INDICATE THE END OF THE PROGRAMMING MODE.
5. The keypad will normally illuminate for 5 seconds after one or more buttons are pressed, and the
illumination will immediately turn off if the 7-8 and 9-0 buttons are pressed simultaneously (lock all
doors). The keypad contains an optical sensor and will not illuminate under bright lighting
conditions. The keypad may only illuminate briefly in colder temperatures in order to maximize the
battery power available to transmit a lock/unlock signal. The temperature at which this occurs will
vary depending upon the keypad battery age and condition. Both of these conditions are a normal
function of the Power Save Mode and do not indicate a need to replace the keypad.
6. After entering the keypad code, the system may unlock the driver's door, lock it, then unlock it
again, and the keypad will not even briefly illuminate. This is the Alert Mode and is an indication
that battery power is very low and the keypad must be replaced.
7. The keypad also contains an Anti-scan feature. If the wrong code has been entered 7 times (35
consecutive button presses) the keypad is disabled for one minute and the keypad lamp will flash
during this time.

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

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

SCDS Identification
The Speed Control Deactivation Switch (SCDS) involved in Recall 05S28 and the revised SCDS is
illustrated below. See Figure 1.
Note that the revised SCDS has a different electrical connector. A jumper adapter (which is
included in the parts kit) is required when replacing the old SCDS with the revised SCDS.
SCDS Location
In most late model year vehicles involved in this recall, the SCDS is located on the master cylinder.
In early model year vehicles (1992-1998), the SCDS may be located on the master cylinder but is
often found on a brake line distribution block or on the brake proportioning valve. If in doubt, just
follow the metal brake lines from the master cylinder until the switch is found.
^ On early model year E-Series vehicles, the SCDS is located on the left frame rail.
^ On E-450 models only, remove the 3 screws and position the coolant degas bottle forward to
allow access to the SCDS and servo.
^ On F-53 vehicles, if the SCDS is not located on the master cylinder, it may be located in a brake
line junction block approximately 457 mm (18 in) below the master cylinder. It may be necessary to
reposition wiring harnesses and/or remove add-on equipment in order to locate the switch.
^ On 1993 MARK VIII vehicles, the steering wheel intermediate shaft needs to be disconnected
from the inside of the vehicle and the outside of the vehicle, and then positioned upwards to gain
access to the SCDS.
- When the intermediate steering shaft is disconnected, the steering wheel must be in the LOCK
position to prevent damage to the clockspring.
- During installation of the intermediate steering shaft, new bolts must be installed. Tighten the bolts
to 49 Nm (36 lb-ft).
^ On 1994-1998 MARK VIII vehicles, the SCDS is located underneath the right front fender splash
shield in front of the right front wheel. It is not necessary to remove the right front wheel to access
the SCDS. Turn the wheel all the way right and position the front of the fender splash shield aside.
^ On all Mark VIII vehicles (except 1993), the speed control servo is located underneath the left
front fender splash shield in front of the left front wheel.

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

SCDS Identification
The Speed Control Deactivation Switch (SCDS) involved in Recall 05S28 and the revised SCDS is
illustrated below. See Figure 1.
Note that the revised SCDS has a different electrical connector. A jumper adapter (which is
included in the parts kit) is required when replacing the old SCDS with the revised SCDS.
SCDS Location
In most late model year vehicles involved in this recall, the SCDS is located on the master cylinder.
In early model year vehicles (1992-1998), the SCDS may be located on the master cylinder but is
often found on a brake line distribution block or on the brake proportioning valve. If in doubt, just
follow the metal brake lines from the master cylinder until the switch is found.
^ On early model year E-Series vehicles, the SCDS is located on the left frame rail.
^ On E-450 models only, remove the 3 screws and position the coolant degas bottle forward to
allow access to the SCDS and servo.
^ On F-53 vehicles, if the SCDS is not located on the master cylinder, it may be located in a brake
line junction block approximately 457 mm (18 in) below the master cylinder. It may be necessary to
reposition wiring harnesses and/or remove add-on equipment in order to locate the switch.
^ On 1993 MARK VIII vehicles, the steering wheel intermediate shaft needs to be disconnected
from the inside of the vehicle and the outside of the vehicle, and then positioned upwards to gain
access to the SCDS.
- When the intermediate steering shaft is disconnected, the steering wheel must be in the LOCK
position to prevent damage to the clockspring.
- During installation of the intermediate steering shaft, new bolts must be installed. Tighten the bolts
to 49 Nm (36 lb-ft).
^ On 1994-1998 MARK VIII vehicles, the SCDS is located underneath the right front fender splash
shield in front of the right front wheel. It is not necessary to remove the right front wheel to access
the SCDS. Turn the wheel all the way right and position the front of the fender splash shield aside.
^ On all Mark VIII vehicles (except 1993), the speed control servo is located underneath the left
front fender splash shield in front of the left front wheel.

Disconnect the SCDS and inspect the harness connector (See Figure 3) for the presence of brake
fluid.
^ All vehicles except 1993 Mark VIII: If there is no evidence of brake fluid on the connector, install a
Fused Jumper Harness.
- On 1993 Mark VIII vehicles with no evidence of brake fluid on the SCDS harness connector,
replace the Speed Control Deactivation Switch but do not inspect or apply electrical grease to the
speed control servo connector.
^ If there is evidence of brake fluid on the connector, replace the Speed Control Deactivation
Switch, inspect and apply electrical grease to the appropriate connectors.
FUSED JUMPER HARNESS (FJH) INSTALLATION
1. Connect the fused jumper harness to the SCDS and the vehicle harness.
2. Secure the jumper harness to the existing harness with tie straps, making sure the fuse holders
are positioned vertically with the cap facing upward. Wrap the tie straps underneath, then over the
top of the existing harness and verify proper fuse holder orientation. See Figure 4.
SPEED CONTROL DEACTIVATION SWITCH (SCDS) REPLACEMENT
NOTE:
The brake pedal must not be depressed during the removal and replacement of the SCDS.
1. Check the brake fluid level at the master cylinder and, if necessary, fill to maximum fluid level.
NOTICE:
DO NOT apply fluid to the electrical connector or damage to the connector may occur.
NOTICE:
The 1994 Capri Brake Repair Kit contains a brass sealing washer. Install the brass washer onto the
SCDS before installing it on the vehicle.

Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > Recalls for Brake Switch (Cruise Control): > 05S28S15 > Apr > 08 >
Recall - Cruise Control Deactivation Switch Inspection > Page 9482
2. Add a few drops of Motorcraft High Performance DOT 3 Motor Vehicle Brake Fluid, PM1-1 or
PM-1-C (US), CPM-1-C (Canada), to the fluid port at the threaded end of the new SCDS. See
Figure 5.
NOTICE:
Do not allow any foreign material to enter the master cylinder port once the SCDS is removed.
NOTE:
Call the Special Service Support Center for assistance if brake fluid does not flow from the SCDS
fitting when the SCDS is removed.
NOTE:
If the new SCDS is not installed immediately after the original switch is removed, the master
cylinder brake fluid could drop below the minimum level and air could enter the brake system. If this
should occur, air must be bled from the brake system at all 4 wheels. In this situation, the labor to
bleed the brake system will not be covered under this program.
3. Remove the SCDS.
4. With the brake fluid reservoir cap removed, observe for brake fluid dripping/draining from the
SCDS fitting. As soon as brake fluid begins to bleed from the fitting, install the new SCDS.
5. Tighten the new SCDS as follows:
^ 18 Nm (159 lb-in) - all vehicles except 1994 Capri.
^ 13 Nm (115 lb-in) - 1994 Capri.
6. Check the brake fluid level at the master cylinder, fill to maximum fluid level and install the brake
fluid reservoir cap.
7. Disconnect the speed control servo and inspect the vehicle harness connector for heat damage.
See Figure 6.
^ If no heat damage is found at the speed control servo connector (even if there is presence of
brake fluid in the connector), proceed to the next step.
^ If the speed control servo connector is heat damaged, call the Special Service Support Center for
further instructions.
8. With the speed control servo disconnected, use shop air only to blow the SCDS harness
electrical connector and the servo connector dry of any trace of brake fluid. Do not use any type of
solvent to clean the connectors.

SCDS Identification
The Speed Control Deactivation Switch (SCDS) involved in Recall 05S28 and the revised SCDS is
illustrated below. See Figure 1.
Note that the revised SCDS has a different electrical connector. A jumper adapter (which is
included in the parts kit) is required when replacing the old SCDS with the revised SCDS.
SCDS Location
In most late model year vehicles involved in this recall, the SCDS is located on the master cylinder.
In early model year vehicles (1992-1998), the SCDS may be located on the master cylinder but is
often found on a brake line distribution block or on the brake proportioning valve. If in doubt, just
follow the metal brake lines from the master cylinder until the switch is found.
^ On early model year E-Series vehicles, the SCDS is located on the left frame rail.
^ On E-450 models only, remove the 3 screws and position the coolant degas bottle forward to
allow access to the SCDS and servo.
^ On F-53 vehicles, if the SCDS is not located on the master cylinder, it may be located in a brake
line junction block approximately 457 mm (18 in) below the master cylinder. It may be necessary to
reposition wiring harnesses and/or remove add-on equipment in order to locate the switch.
^ On 1993 MARK VIII vehicles, the steering wheel intermediate shaft needs to be disconnected
from the inside of the vehicle and the outside of the vehicle, and then positioned upwards to gain
access to the SCDS.
- When the intermediate steering shaft is disconnected, the steering wheel must be in the LOCK
position to prevent damage to the clockspring.
- During installation of the intermediate steering shaft, new bolts must be installed. Tighten the bolts
to 49 Nm (36 lb-ft).
^ On 1994-1998 MARK VIII vehicles, the SCDS is located underneath the right front fender splash
shield in front of the right front wheel. It is not necessary to remove the right front wheel to access
the SCDS. Turn the wheel all the way right and position the front of the fender splash shield aside.
^ On all Mark VIII vehicles (except 1993), the speed control servo is located underneath the left
front fender splash shield in front of the left front wheel.

Disconnect the SCDS and inspect the harness connector (See Figure 3) for the presence of brake
fluid.
^ All vehicles except 1993 Mark VIII: If there is no evidence of brake fluid on the connector, install a
Fused Jumper Harness.
- On 1993 Mark VIII vehicles with no evidence of brake fluid on the SCDS harness connector,
replace the Speed Control Deactivation Switch but do not inspect or apply electrical grease to the
speed control servo connector.
^ If there is evidence of brake fluid on the connector, replace the Speed Control Deactivation
Switch, inspect and apply electrical grease to the appropriate connectors.
FUSED JUMPER HARNESS (FJH) INSTALLATION
1. Connect the fused jumper harness to the SCDS and the vehicle harness.
2. Secure the jumper harness to the existing harness with tie straps, making sure the fuse holders
are positioned vertically with the cap facing upward. Wrap the tie straps underneath, then over the
top of the existing harness and verify proper fuse holder orientation. See Figure 4.
SPEED CONTROL DEACTIVATION SWITCH (SCDS) REPLACEMENT
NOTE:
The brake pedal must not be depressed during the removal and replacement of the SCDS.
1. Check the brake fluid level at the master cylinder and, if necessary, fill to maximum fluid level.
NOTICE:
DO NOT apply fluid to the electrical connector or damage to the connector may occur.
NOTICE:
The 1994 Capri Brake Repair Kit contains a brass sealing washer. Install the brass washer onto the
SCDS before installing it on the vehicle.

Component Information > Technical Service Bulletins > All Technical Service Bulletins for Brake Switch (Cruise Control): >
05S28S15 > Apr > 08 > Recall - Cruise Control Deactivation Switch Inspection > Page 9518
2. Add a few drops of Motorcraft High Performance DOT 3 Motor Vehicle Brake Fluid, PM1-1 or
PM-1-C (US), CPM-1-C (Canada), to the fluid port at the threaded end of the new SCDS. See
Figure 5.
NOTICE:
Do not allow any foreign material to enter the master cylinder port once the SCDS is removed.
NOTE:
Call the Special Service Support Center for assistance if brake fluid does not flow from the SCDS
fitting when the SCDS is removed.
NOTE:
If the new SCDS is not installed immediately after the original switch is removed, the master
cylinder brake fluid could drop below the minimum level and air could enter the brake system. If this
should occur, air must be bled from the brake system at all 4 wheels. In this situation, the labor to
bleed the brake system will not be covered under this program.
3. Remove the SCDS.
4. With the brake fluid reservoir cap removed, observe for brake fluid dripping/draining from the
SCDS fitting. As soon as brake fluid begins to bleed from the fitting, install the new SCDS.
5. Tighten the new SCDS as follows:
^ 18 Nm (159 lb-in) - all vehicles except 1994 Capri.
^ 13 Nm (115 lb-in) - 1994 Capri.
6. Check the brake fluid level at the master cylinder, fill to maximum fluid level and install the brake
fluid reservoir cap.
7. Disconnect the speed control servo and inspect the vehicle harness connector for heat damage.
See Figure 6.
^ If no heat damage is found at the speed control servo connector (even if there is presence of
brake fluid in the connector), proceed to the next step.
^ If the speed control servo connector is heat damaged, call the Special Service Support Center for
further instructions.
8. With the speed control servo disconnected, use shop air only to blow the SCDS harness
electrical connector and the servo connector dry of any trace of brake fluid. Do not use any type of
solvent to clean the connectors.

9. Cut approximately 3 mm (1/8 in) off the grease tube applicator tip.
10. Before installing the jumper harness, fill the vehicle harness end of the jumper (male pin
connector end) with Motorcraft Electrical Grease II XG-15-A. See Figure 7.
11. Install the adapter jumper harness by connecting it to both the SCDS and the vehicle harness.
Using the provided tie strap, secure the jumper harness to a nearby component such as the speed
control cable or another wire harness.
NOTICE:
Be sure to apply and adequate amount of grease to the vehicle harness connector only. DO NOT
apply the grease directly to the connector of the servo module.
12. Apply a 5 mm (3/16 in) high bead of Motorcraft Electrical Grease II XG-15-A across the entire
width and length of the servo vehicle harness connector. See Figure 8.

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

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators > Cigarette Lighter > Component Information
> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9577
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators > Cigarette Lighter > Component Information
> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9578
Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators > Cigarette Lighter > Component Information
> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9579
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators > Cigarette Lighter > Component Information
> Diagrams > Diagram Information and Instructions > Page 9580
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Cigarette Lighter: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

CAUTION: During demagnetizing, the demagnetizer coil will be pulled toward the vehicle. Place a
cloth over the vehicle roof to protect the vehicle surface if contact occurs. Make sure the cloth
covers the front third and the entire width of the roof.

Ford Workshop Manuals > Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators > Compass > Component Information >
Service Precautions > Page 9602
Compass: Description and Operation
A compass and outside temperature display are contained in the overhead console.
The compass and temperature display can be turned off and on by pressing the MODE switch in
the overhead console. The vehicle heading is displayed as one of N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, and
NW.
Compass Accuracy
Magnetic mounted devices like antennas and luggage racks should not be located on the front third
of the vehicle roof. Placing these devices near the compass will cause inaccurate directional
readings. If these devices must be used, accuracy may be improved by recalibrating the compass
while the devices are installed on the vehicle.
Driving near power lines, or driving in the area of large iron or steel structures can temporarily
change the compass heading. If the compass remains inaccurate after driving near such objects,
demagnetize the vehicle and recalibrate the compass.
Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that varies slightly from the
northerly direction on maps. This variation is four degrees between the adjacent zones and will
become noticeable as the vehicle crosses multiple zones. A correct zone setting eliminates the
error. Refer to Compass Zone Adjustment.
Temperature, Outside Air
The thermometer sensor is attached to the radiator frame behind the grille. The temperature can be
displayed in Celsius or Fahrenheit by pressing the MODE switch.
If the outside temperature falls below 3.3°C (38°F), the display will alternate from ICE to the outside
temperature at a two-second rate for one minute.
The outside air temperature reading can be affected by engine heat when the vehicle is idling or
has been off for less than two hours. The compass and thermometer will limit the increase of the
displayed temperature to one degree per minute at very low speeds or immediately after the
ignition is turned on. After two minutes at a sustained speed of at least 53 km/h (33 mph), effects of
engine heat are minimal and the compass will display the current outside temperature reading.
Temperature decreases are always updated immediately.
If the outside air temperature sensor is short circuited or open, the display will show 60°C (140°F)
or -40°C (-40°F) respectively in place of temperature.

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

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

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

ISSUE
Some vehicles may exhibit an inoperative or inaccurate speedometer, 4x4 lamp illuminated, and/or
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTCs) P1635 or P1639 present after a Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) or Instrument Cluster replacement. This may be caused by the Vehicle Identification (VID)
block that must be programmed when replacing the PCM.
ACTION
As part of the calibration, there is an area referred to as the Vehicle Identification (VID) block. The
VID block must be programmed when replacing the PCM. Failure to perform the proper
Programmable Module Installation procedure may generate fault code: P1639 VID Block not
programmed or is corrupt--P1635 Tire/Axle Out Of Acceptable Range. Refer to the following
procedures to ensure the PCM is properly configured.

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 following conditions
will take place: If the safety belt is not buckled before the ignition is turned to the ON position, the chime will turn
on for four to eight seconds and the indicator will come on for one to two minutes.
- If the 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 (if equipped)
The Belt Minder feature is a supplemental warning to the safety belt warning function. This feature
provides additional reminders to the driver that the driver's safety belt is unbuckled by intermittently
sounding a chime and illuminating the safety belt warning lamp in the instrument cluster.

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

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

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

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

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > License Plate Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 9956
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Information and Instructions > Page 9957
Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > License Plate Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 9958
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > License Plate Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram
Information and Instructions > Page 9959
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

License Plate Lamp: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Marker Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 9993
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Marker Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 9994
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Marker Lamp: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

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

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

How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Tail Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 10180
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Tail Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 10181
Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Tail Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 10182
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Tail Lamp > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 10183
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Tail Lamp: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Trailer Lamps: Diagram Information and Instructions
How to Find and Use These Diagrams
Diagrams are presented in three main categories:
^ Power Distribution Diagrams
^ System Diagrams
^ Grounds Diagrams
Types of Diagrams Shown
Block Diagrams can be found at the beginning of some sets of diagrams. These block diagrams
provide an overview of the systems that are detailed on the detailed diagrams that follow them.
Block diagrams are not suitable for diagnostic operations.
Detailed Diagrams (usually provided in sets of more than one diagram) provide detailed system
information suitable for diagnostic operations.
Related Diagrams that are not an intergal part of the detailed diagrams, but may have a
relationship to them, are also included.
All components connected to the control module are shown in order to provide easy understanding
of the system component interactions.
Unless otherwise identified, diagrams shown in a set will be of the Detailed Diagrams type.
NOTE: All wiring connections between components are shown exactly as they exist in the vehicles.
It is important to realize, however, that no attempt has been made on the diagram to represent
components and wiring as they physically appear on the vehicle. For example, a 4-foot length of
wire is treated no differently in a diagram from one which is only a few inches long. Furthermore, to
aid in understanding electrical (electronic) operation, wiring inside complicated components has
been simplified.
Complete Circuit Operation
Each circuit is shown completely and independently in one set of diagrams. Other components
which are connected to the circuit may not be shown unless they influence the circuit operation.
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Trailer Lamps > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 10214
Current Flow (1)
Each set of diagrams normally starts with the component that powers the circuit such as a fuse or
the ignition switch. Current flow is shown from the power source at the top of the diagram to ground
at the bottom of the diagram. In order to concentrate on the essential parts, power supply and
ground connections are sometimes simplified by a dashed line in the diagrams.
Switch Positions (2)
Within the diagram, all switches, sensors and relays are shown "at rest" (as if the Ignition Switch
were OFF).
Splices (3)
An arrow indicates that the splice is not shown completely. If the splice is not shown completely in
the diagram but is complete within the set of diagrams, the number of the diagram where the splice
is completed is indicated next to the arrow.
Boxes (4)
A thin dashed box on a diagram indicates a pan of the circuit which is only present for a particular
vehicle model, country, or option. These qualifiers are shown next to the box on the diagram.
Component Names and Notes (5)
Component names are placed on the right hand side of each component. Any notes that describe
switch positions or operating conditions follow the name. Descriptions of the internals of the
component are also included here.
Component Identification Numbers (6)
Each component on each diagram has a component identification number located to the upper
right hand side of the component. By finding this number or the component name in one of the the
A-Z Component Lists, the Component Location description for that component can easily be found.
See: Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List

Fuse And Relay Information
Fuse and Relay Information
Fuse Box/Locations and Relay Box/Locations contain views of the fuse/relay box in which all fuses
and relays are identified.
Power Distribution
Power Distribution
"Power Distribution" shows the current feed circuit. The Current path is shown from the battery to
the ignition switch and to all fuses.
Fuse Circuits
Fuse Circuits
The first diagram in "Fuse Circuits" 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.
Any subsequent diagrams will show circuits feeding the fuse, all the way back to the battery.
Ground Distribution
Ground Distribution
"Ground Distribution" contains the diagrams that show the complete details for each ground
connection or main ground splice. This is useful in diagnosing a problem affecting several
components at once (poor ground connection or ground splice). All details (wires, splices,
connectors) between
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Trailer Lamps > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 10216
the ground point and the components are shown. These ground connection details are shown here
in order to keep the individual sets of diagrams as uncluttered as possible.
Splices with a large number of wires may be split in order to improve the graphic representation. A
thin line is used to indicate the unity of the splice. The splice is then marked with the additional text
"partial".
Component Identification Information
Component Identification Information consists of
(1) A-Z Component List, (2) Component Location Views, and (3) Connector views (Faces).
The A-Z Component List 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. See:
Locations/Component Locations/A-Z Component List
The Component Location Views show the components and their connecting wires as they can be
found on the vehicle. See: Locations/Component Locations/Component Location Views
The 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. See: Diagrams/Connector Views
Vacuum Motor Operation
Vacuum motors operate like electrical solenoids, mechanically pushing or pulling a shaft between
two fixed positions. When vacuum is not applied, the shaft is pushed all the way out by a spring.
Some vacuum motors can position the actuating arm at any position between fully extended and
fully retracted. The Servo is operated by a control valve that applies varying amounts of vacuum to
the motor. The higher the vacuum level, the greater the retraction of the motor arm. Servo Motors
work nearly the same way as two-position motors, except for the way the vacuum is applied. Servo
Motors are generally larger and provide a calibrated control.
A double diaphragm motor has three positions (it is actually two motors in one housing). When the
top port gets vacuum, the shaft pulls halfway in. When both ports get vacuum, the shaft pulls all the
way in.
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, tall pipe, catalytic converter and muffler.
^ Do not allow flame or sparks near the battery. Gases are always present in and around the
battery. 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.
circuit Numbering
Circuit Numbering and Wire Identification
Circuit Numbering:
Ford has introduced a world-wide uniform system for circuit numbering and wire identification. The
system is called Function, System-Connection, or FSC for short. FSC was developed mainly to
assist in vehicle development and production processes, but is also helpful in troubleshooting
electrical circuits. Function:
The first two digits identify the function of the wire. In this case, the function code includes the letter
"S" to indicate it is an additionally switched function. The function part of the circuit number is the
most helpful to the technician in troubleshooting a circuit.
System-Connection (including branch):
Systems are related to subsets of the vehicle circuitry. Immediately following the system letter code
is the connection number specific to
Ford Explorer Sport Trac 2wd Workshop Manual (V6-4.0L VIN E (2002))
Ford Workshop Manuals > Lighting and Horns > Trailer Lamps > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram Information
and Instructions > Page 10217
that system. A branch identification is used to differentiate wires in one connection with the same
function.
Wire Identification (wire colors):
The wire identification consists of a basic color and an identification color, and is determined
directly from the wire's circuit number. In the schematics the wire colors are indicated next to the
wires. The basic and identification colors are abbreviated using the international norm IEC 757.
Each function code has a specific basic color associated with it. A colored stripe is used to
differentiate several wires with the same function within one component connector.
Wire Identification Example
Using the circuit number and wire identification used in the Wire Identification Example, we know
the following information about the wire:
Function: 31 = Ground S = Additionally switched circuit
System: AC = Headlamp leveling
Connection: 3 = Switch connection
A = Branch
Size: 1.5 = 1.5 sq.mm
Color: BK = Basic color black (determined by function 31) RD = Identification color red (red stripe).

Trailer Lamps: Diagnostic Aids
These illustrations are known examples of wiring harness, splices and connectors that will create
intermittent electrical concerns. The concerns are hidden and can only be discovered by a physical
evaluation 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.

Rear Door Window Motor: Service and Repair Rear Window Motor Initialization
CAUTION: Make sure that no obstructions are present in the power rear window system when
carrying out this procedure.
NOTE:
^ This procedure must be carried out when repairs are performed on any part of the power rear
window system including when: the power rear window motor is removed from the window
regulator drum housing, a new power rear motor is installed, a new power rear window regulator is
installed, a new power rear window module is installed, and any operation in which grease or
lubricants are applied to the power rear window system.
^ All power rear window components (window glass module, window regulator, window motor, and
glass runs) must be installed and torqued to specification before carrying out this procedure.
^ Steps 1-6 must be completed within 30 seconds. The entire procedure must be completed within
five minutes.
^ Once the ignition key is turned to the ON position in Step 6, it must remain on until the entire
procedure is completed.
^ Steps 7 and 9 require that the power rear window control switch be held in the closed position
until the power rear window motor stalls the window in the upper header seal. Step 8 requires that
the window control switch be momentarily turned to the open position.
1. Start with the ignition in the OFF position. 2. Turn the ignition to the ON position. 3. Press the
power rear window control switch vent button six times. 4. Turn the ignition to the OFF position. 5.
Press the power rear window control switch vent button six times. 6. Turn the ignition to the ON
position. The power rear window will move up-down-up-down approximately 20 mm (0.8 in). This
movement
indicates that the power rear window motor has entered initialized mode.
7. Rotate and hold the power rear window control switch to the closed position until the window
stalls in the upper header seal. 8. Momentarily rotate the power rear window control switch to the
open position and release. The power rear window will carry out a one-touch
down operation until the window stalls at the bottom of the travel stop designed into the window
regulator.
9. Rotate and hold the power rear window control switch to the closed position until the window
stalls into the upper header seal. Once this operation
is complete, the window will move up-down-up-down approximately 20 mm (0.8 in). This movement
indicates that the power rear window motor has been successfully initialized.
10. Verify correct operation of the power rear window by moving the window to the fully open, vent,
then fully closed positions.

Back Window Glass: Service and Repair Rear Window Positioning
CAUTION:
^ Make sure that no obstructions are present in the power rear window system when carrying out
this procedure.
^ If the glass/regulator system is binding, the system must be diagnosed and a new component
must be installed. Do not apply hand pressure to glass that does not move freely.
NOTE:
^ Because the power rear window removal/installation position is approximately three-quarters
down and the power rear window motor can only move the window to three positions, a special
procedure is necessary to position the window to the removal/installation position.
^ If the power rear window motor does not respond to this procedure, refer to the diagnosis and
testing for repair. If the window must be removed and the window motor does not respond to this
procedure, remove the window motor. The window then can be moved by carefully applying hand
pressure in the downward direction.
^ By only partially performing the power rear window motor initialization procedure, the window
motor will enter error mode. In error mode, no window motor movement is possible and the window
motor will have to be re-initialized. Refer to Rear Window Motor Initialized.
^ Steps 1-6 must be completed within 30 seconds.
1. Start with the ignition in the OFF position. 2. Turn the ignition to the ON position. 3. Press the
power rear window control switch vent button six times. 4. Turn the ignition to the OFF position. 5.
Press the power rear window control switch vent button six times. 6. Turn the ignition to the ON
position. The power rear window will move up-down-up-down approximately 20 mm (0.8 in). This
movement
indicates that the window motor has entered initialized mode.
7. Rotate and hold the power rear window control switch to the closed position until the window
stalls in the upper header seal. 8. Momentarily rotate the power rear window control switch to the
open position and release. The window will carry out a one-touch down operation
until the window stalls at the bottom of the travel stop designed into the window regulator.
9. Rotate and hold the power rear window control switch to the closed position momentarily until
the window regulator glass attach nuts are lined up
with the sheet metal access holes. The window will be approximately in the three-quarter down
position when installed to the window regulator.
10. Repeat this procedure if the window regulator glass attach nuts are raised too far above the
sheet metal access holes.
