Tone generator
*
[SR12500(BEF )03/95]
The air bag readiness light indicates the air bag
system condition. However, a series of five sets
of five beeps will be heard only if the readiness
light does not work and there is a problem with
the air bag system. This also means that the Air
Bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) is in
need of service. The tone pattern will repeat
(five sets of five beeps) periodically until the
problem and light are repaired. Unless serviced,
the Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System may
not function properly in the event of a collision.
*
[SR12600(BEF )05/95]
RWARNING
Do not attempt to service, repair, or
modify the Air Bag Supplemental
Restraint System or its fuses. See your
Ford or Lincoln-Mercury dealer.
[SR12700(BEF )04/95]
The air bag system is designed to stay out of
sight until it is activated. The air bag system is
designed to deploy in frontal and front-angled
collisions more severe than hitting a parked
vehicle of similar size and weight head-on at
about 28 mph (45 km/h). Because the system
senses the crash severity rather than vehicle
speed,somefrontal collisions at speeds above
28 mph (45 km/h) will not inflate the air bag.
The system activates when the sensors detect a
forward deceleration equal to or greater than the
deceleration experienced if you would drive
your vehicle into a solid wall at 14 mph. In
some side impacts, the forward deceleration of
your vehicle can be great enough to deploy your
air bag.

[ST06800( ALL)03/95]
If the engine still does not start after two
attempts:
*
[ST06825( ALL)04/95]
1. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position.
*
[ST06851( ALL)04/95]
2. Press the accelerator all the way to the floor
and hold it.
*
[ST06876( ALL)04/95]
3. Turn the ignition key to the START position.
*
[ST06900( ALL)04/95]
4. Release the ignition key when the engine
starts.
*
[ST06925( ALL)04/95]
5. Release the accelerator gradually as the
engine speeds up. Then drive away in the
normal manner.
*
[ST06951( ALL)04/95]
If the engine still does not start, the fuel pump
shut-off switch may have been triggered. For
directions on how to reset the switch seeFuel
Pump Shut-Off Switchlater in this chapter.
*
[ST07300(BEF )05/95]
A computer system controls the engine's idle
speed. When you start your vehicle, the engine's
idle speed normally runs higher than when it's
warmed up. These faster engine speeds will
make your vehicle move slightly faster than its
normal idle speed. It should, however, slow
down after a short time. If it does not, have the
idle speed checked.

NOTE: Your vehicle is equipped with a
brake-shift interlock feature. This
feature prevents you from shifting
from P (Park) unless you have the
brake pedal depressed. (The ignition
must be in the ON position.) If you
cannot shift from P (Park) with the
brake pedal depressed:
*
[DR09120( ALL)01/95]
1. Apply the parking brake.
*
[DR09130( ALL)01/95]
2. Remove the key.
*
[DR09140( ALL)01/95]
3. Insert the key and rotate one position
clockwise (ignition in the OFF position).
*
[DR09150( ALL)01/95]
4. Apply the brake pedal and shift to N
(Neutral). (If the vehicle is shifted to P
(Park), you must repeat the previous steps.)
*
[DR09160( ALL)01/95]
5. Start the vehicle.
*
[DR09165( ALL)05/95]
If you need to shift out of P (Park) by using the
alternate procedure described above, it is
possible that a fuse has blown and that your
brakelamps may also not be functional. Please
refer to the chapter titledServicing Your Bronco
in this Owner Guide for instructions on checking
and replacing fuses.

R (Reverse)
*
[DR09300( ALL)02/95]
With the gearshift in the R (Reverse) position,
the vehicle will move backward. You should
always come to a complete stop before shifting
into or out of R (Reverse).

[SV39405( ALL)06/93]
NOTE: Do not turn the steering wheel of your
vehicle with the engine off. It could
force power steering fluid out from the
reservoir cap or in extreme cases, it
could unseat the cap.

[SV39500( ALL)04/95]
Fuses, Fuse Links and Circuit
Breakers
*
[SV39650(B FM)12/91]
Fuses, circuit breakers and fuse links protect
your vehicle's electrical system from overloading.
If electrical parts in your vehicle are not
working, the system may have been overloaded
and blown a fuse or tripped a circuit breaker.
Before you replace or repair any electrical parts,
check the appropriate fuses or circuit breakers.
*
[SV39700( ALL)10/89]
The following charts tell you which fuses or
circuit breakers protect each electrical part of
your vehicle. If a fuse blows or a circuit breaker
opens a circuit, all the parts of your vehicle that
use that circuit will not work.
*
[SV39800( ALL)02/95]
Once you have determined which fuses or circuit
breakers to check, follow the procedures under
Checking and replacing fusesorChecking and
replacing circuit breakerslater in this chapter.

Power distribution box
*
[SV41400( ALL)10/92]
The high current fuses contained in the Power
Distribution Box protect your vehicle's main
electrical systems from overloads; these fuses
provide the connection between the battery and
your vehicle's electrical systems.
*
[SV41500( ALL)10/92]
The high current fuses are coded as follows: 30
amp -light green, 40 amp - orange, 50 amp - red,
60 amp -blue.

[SV41600( ALL)05/95]
RWARNING
Always disconnect the battery before
servicing high current fuses.
*
[SV41620( ALL)05/95]
Ford recommends that high current fuses be
replaced by a qualified technician.
*
[SV41700( ALL)03/93]
RWARNING
Always replace the cover to the Power
Distribution Box before reconnecting the
battery or refilling fluid reservoirs.
*
[SV41800( ALL)04/95]
A blown high current fuse may be replaced but
will continue to blow until the cause of the
overload condition is corrected.
*
[SV41900( ALL)05/95]
RWARNING
Always replace a fuse with one that has
the specified amperage rating. Using a
fuse with a higher amperage rating can
cause severe wire damage and could start
a fire.

Checking and Replacing Fuses
*
[SV42300( ALL)02/95]
If you need to check a fuse, follow these steps:
*
[SV42800(B F )03/91]
1. In order to find the fuse panel, you must
first remove the cover from the lower edge
of the instrument panel. You can do this by
pulling on handle to disengage the fasteners.

RWARNING
Always replace a fuse with one that has
the specified amperage rating. Using a
fuse with a higher amperage rating can
cause severe wire damage and could start
a fire.
*
[SV43800( ALL)10/92]
5. Put the fuse panel cover back on.
*
[SV44000( ALL)05/93]
Even after you replace a fuse, it will continue to
blow if you do not find what caused the
overload. If the fuse continues to blow, have
your electrical system checked.

[SV44100( ALL)03/95]
Circuit Breakers
*
[SV44200(BEF )03/95]
If you need to check a circuit breaker on the
fuse panel, seeChecking and replacing fusesto
find out how to locate the fuse panel. Otherwise,
locate the circuit breaker according to the
instructions on the charts given earlier in this
chapter.
*
[SV44300( ALL)02/95]
Since you need diagnostic equipment to check
whether a circuit breaker works and such
equipment comes with instructions, we do not
discuss how to check circuit breakers.
*
[SV44400( ALL)10/92]
However, you should know that the circuit
breakers will reset themselves and allow the
electrical parts to work again once the overload
on the circuit is removed. If the circuit breakers
continue to cut off electricity, have your vehicle's
electrical system checked.
*
[SV44500( ALL)02/95]
If you replace a circuit breaker, use one with the
same amperage rating. To remove a circuit
breaker mounted in the fuse panel, grip it with
your finger and thumb and pull it straight out
of its socket.
