4.4.2 Generator and Alternator
Torque Curve of Alternator
Diagram E75871 shows the torque in Nm which
is required to drive the alternator. The vertical
axis (A) shows the torque [Nm] and the horizontal
axis (B) shows the alternators revolutions per
minute [1/min].
NOTE: For equivalent engine revs per minute
(RPM), the alternators revolutions, axis (B) should
be divided by the following factors: 2.66 for diesel
(2.2L and 2.4L), 2.4 for Gasoline (2.3L).
NOTE: These alternator curves do not show
spare output capacity as this would be
dependant on original vehicle features and
options

Current in relation to revolutions per minute
Diagram E75872 shows the current (A) in relation
to alternators revolutions (B) per minute [1/min].
This preliminary Bosch performance curve (1)
arose at a temperature of 25°C and a voltage of
13,5V.

4.5 Climate Control System
WARNING: Do not use propylene
glycol based coolant
•Never secure hoses or tubes to the
transmission fill or dip stick or to any fuel
system or brake component
•Do not route heater or refrigerant lines near or
directly over any exhaust system component,
including the exhaust manifolds.
•Avoid routing of hoses in the wheelhouse or
stone kick-up arch. However, if routing is
required in these areas, shield against stone
pecking as appropriate.
•Do not route hoses near sharp edges. Utilize
guards to protect against cutting or chafing.

4.6 Instrument Cluster
WARNING: Do not tamper with, cut
into or connect to any of the
CAN-Bus interface wiring or
connectors.
The Transit has a Hybrid electronic Cluster (HEC).
Most of the functions are managed over the
CAN-Bus interface (pins 3-8)

4.7 Horn
A dual horn may be fitted to the vehicle in place
of the single horn.
Any other aftermarket horn (for example an air
horn) will need to be driven by a separate relay
energised by the horn circuit.

4.8 Tachograph
The factory-fit Tachograph option uses a
Siemens VDO system. It is recommended,
therefore, that any vehicle that requires a
tachograph is sent to an authorised Siemens
VDO Tachograph Service Centre for system
installation and calibration.
Details of all recommended Service Centers can
be found on Siemens web site. This site also
contains details of current regulations and
tachograph operation.
4.8.1 Legislation
WARNING: All tachographs require
the same wiring connections as this
is controlled by tachograph
legislation.
There are two types of tachograph available, See
below diagrams, E75501 mechanical (MTCO)
and E75502 digital (DTCO). The type of
tachograph required by the customer will depend
on the legislation in the country of use.

Pin Assignment
For detailed information about pin assignments
please contact your local National Sales Company
representative or Siemens VDO directly.
Wiring
NOTE: Not all instrument panel looms contain
tachograph wiring.
The tachograph wiring consists of two parts:
•Speed sensor harness – this is a separate part
which attaches to the instrument panel
harness at the junction of the firewall and floor
pan, close to the centre of the vehicle.
•Instrument panel harness – this contains the
remainder of circuits for the tachograph.
4.8.2 Tachograph Mounting
Standard Ford installation uses a pod on top of
the instrument panel. The tachograph mounts in
the aperture nearest the instrument cluster. Note
the rear mounting bracket in the centre of the
DIN aperture in the below diagram E75503.
