For additional information, refer to: Brake System
Health and Safety Precautions (100-00 General
Information, Description and Operation).
Brazing
See Welding.
Chemical Materials
See also Legal Aspects.
Chemical materials such as solvents, sealers,
adhesives, paints, resin foams, battery acids,
antifreeze, brake fluids, fuels, oils and grease
should always be used with caution and stored and
handled with care. They may be toxic, harmful,
corrosive, irritant or highly flammable and give rise
to hazardous fumes and dusts.
The effects of excessive exposure to chemicals
may be immediate or delayed; briefly experienced
or permanent; cumulative; superficial; life
threatening; or may reduce life expectancy.
Chemical Materials - Do's
– Do carefully read and observe hazard and precaution warnings given on material
containers (labels) and in any accompanying
leaflets, posters or other instructions. Material
health and safety data sheets can be obtained
from manufacturers.
– Do remove chemical materials from the skin and clothing as soon as practicable after soiling.
Change heavily soiled clothing and have it
cleaned.
– Do organize work practices and protective clothing to avoid soiling of the skin and eyes;
breathing vapors, aerosols, dusts or fumes;
inadequate container labeling; fire and explosion
hazards.
– Do wash before job breaks, before eating, smoking, drinking or using toilet facilities when
handling chemical materials.
– Do keep work areas clean, uncluttered and free of spills.
– Do store chemical materials according to national and local regulations.
– Do keep chemical materials out of the reach of children.
Chemical Materials - Do Nots
– Do not mix chemical materials except under themanufacturers instructions; some chemicals can
form other toxic or harmful chemicals, give off
toxic or harmful fumes or become explosive
when mixed together.
– Do not spray chemical materials, particularly those based on solvents, in confined spaces,
for example when people are inside a vehicle.
– Do not apply heat or flame to chemical materials except under the manufacturers instructions.
Some are highly flammable and some may
release toxic or harmful fumes.
– Do not leave containers open. Fumes given off can build up to toxic, harmful or explosive
concentrations. Some fumes are heavier than
air and will accumulate in confined areas such
as pits.
– Do not transfer chemical materials to unlabelled containers.
– Do not clean hands or clothing with chemicals. Chemicals, particularly solvents and fuels, will
dry the skin and may cause irritation leading to

dermatitis or be absorbed through the skin in
toxic or harmful quantities.
– Do not use emptied containers for other materials except when they have been cleaned
under supervised conditions.
– Do not sniff or smell chemical materials. Brief exposure to high concentrations of fumes can
be toxic or harmful.
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC)
There is concern in the scientific community that
CFCs and Halons are depleting the upper ozone
layer which filters out harmful ultraviolet radiation.
Decreased filtration of ultraviolet radiation may
result in increases in skin cancer, cataracts and
immune system suppression in humans, as well
as decreased productivity of crops and aquatic
systems.
CFCs are used primarily as refrigerants in vehicle
air conditioning systems and as aerosol
propellants. Halons are used as fire extinguishants.
Clutch Fluids
See Brake fluids.
Clutch Linings and Pads
SeeAsbestos.
Corrosion Protection Materials
See also Solvents, Fire.
Highly flammable, flammable – observe No
Smoking policy.
These materials are varied and the manufacturers
instructions must be followed. They may contain
solvents, resins or petroleum products. Skin and
eye contact should be avoided. They should only
be sprayed in conditions of adequate ventilation
and not in confined spaces.
Cutting
See Welding.
Dewaxing
SeeSolvents andFuels (Kerosene).
Dusts
Powder, dusts or clouds may be irritant, harmful
or toxic. Avoid breathing dusts from powdery
chemical materials or those arising from dry
abrasion operations. Wear respiratory protection
if ventilation is inadequate.
Fine dusts of combustible material can present an
explosion hazard. Avoid explosive limits and
sources of ignition.
Electric Shock
Electric shock can result from the use of faulty
electrical equipment or from the misuse of
equipment in good condition.
Make sure that electrical equipment is maintained
in good condition and frequently tested. Faulty
equipment should be labeled and preferably
removed from the workstation.
Make sure that flexes, cables, plugs and sockets
are not frayed, kinked, cut, cracked or otherwise
damaged.
Make sure that electrical equipment and flexes do
not come into contact with water.
Make sure that electrical equipment is protected
by the correct rated fuse.
Never misuse electrical equipment and never use
equipment that is in any way faulty. The results
could be fatal.
Make sure that the cables of mobile electrical
equipment cannot get trapped and damaged, such
as in a vehicle hoist.
Make sure that the designated electrical workers
are trained in basic First Aid.
In cases of electrocution:
– switch off the power supply before approaching
the victim.
– if this is not possible push or drag the victim from the source of electricity using dry
non-conductive material.
– commence resuscitation if trained to do so.

Road/Roller Testing
Road or roller testing may be carried out for various
reasons and a procedure detailing pre-test checks,
engine starting and stopping, pre-driving checks,
on-test checks and final checks to be completed
on completion of the test is given below.
Unless complete vehicle performance is being
checked, the full road test procedure need not be
carried out. Instead, those items particularly
relevant to the system(s) being checked can be
extracted.
Pre-Test Checks
WARNING: If the brake system hydraulic
fluid level is low, pedal travel is excessive
or a hydraulic leak is found, do not attempt
to road test the vehicle until the reason for
the low fluid level, excessive pedal travel
or hydraulic leak is found and rectified.
It is suggested that pre-test checks and functional
tests of those systems and circuits which affect the
safe and legal operations of the vehicle, such as
brakes, lights and steering, should always be
carried out before the road or roller test.
With the ignition switched off, check:
– the engine oil level.
– the engine coolant level.
– the tires, for correct pressure, compatible types and tread patterns, and wear within limits.
– that there is sufficient fuel in the tank to complete the test.
– all around the engine, transmission and under the vehicle for oil, coolant, hydraulic and fuel
leaks. Make a note of any apparent leaks and
wipe off the surrounding areas to make it easier
to identify the extent of the leak on completion
of the test.
Starting the Engine
NOTE: On initial drive away from cold and within
the first 1.5 km (1 mile), do not depress the
accelerator pedal beyond half travel until the
vehicle has attained a minimum speed of 25 km/h
(15 miles/h). Never operate at high engine speed
or with the accelerator pedal at full travel whilst the
engine is cold.
With the ignition switched off, check: – that the parking brake is applied.
– that the gear lever is in the neutral position.
– that all instrument gauges (except fuel gauge)
read zero.
With the ignition switched on, check:
– that the ignition controlled warning lamps are illuminated.
– that the engine temperature gauge registers a reading compatible with the engine temperature.
– that the fuel gauge registers a reading appropriate to the fuel level in the tank.
– the operation of the parking brake warning lamp and fluid level warning indicator.
Road or Roller Testing
CAUTION: If road testing, check the brake
operation while still traveling at low speed
before continuing with the test. If the
brakes pull to one side, or appear to be
otherwise faulty, do not continue with the
road test until the fault has been found and
rectified.
During the road or roller test, check:
– that the clutch pedal operation is not stiff or heavy.
– that the initial gear engagement is smooth and there is no evidence of clutch drag.
– that the parking brake control operates smoothly and releases quickly and completely.
– that the clutch takes up the drive smoothly, without slip or judder.
– that gear changing is smooth with no abnormal noises or vibrations from the transmission.
– the engine power output is satisfactory, full power is achieved, acceleration is smooth and
pedal operation is not stiff or heavy, and engine
speed returns to idle correctly.
– there is no excessive or abnormally colored smoke from the engine under normal driving,
heavy load or overrun conditions.
– that steering operation, including power steering (if equipped), is smooth, accurate, not
excessively heavy or with excessive free play
or vibration.
– that the steering does not pull to one side and self centers smoothly after cornering.

Noise Conditions
• Gear noise is typically a howling or whining dueto gear damage or incorrect bearing preload. It
can occur at various speeds and driving
conditions, or it can be continuous.
• Chuckle is a particular rattling noise that sounds like a stick against the spokes of a spinning
bicycle wheel. It occurs while decelerating from
64 km/h (40 mph) and can usually be heard all
the way to a stop. The frequency varies with
vehicle speed.
• Knock is very similar to chuckle, though it may be louder and occurs on acceleration or
deceleration. The teardown will disclose what
has to be corrected.
Clicking, popping or grinding noises may be caused
by the following:
• worn, damaged or incorrectly installed wheel bearing, suspension or brake component.
Check and rule out tires, exhaust and trim items
before disassembling the transmission to diagnose
and correct gear noise.
The noises described under Road Test usually
have specific causes that can be diagnosed by
observation as the unit is disassembled. The initial
clues are the type of noise heard on the road test
and driving conditions.
Vibration Conditions
Vibration at highway speeds may be caused by
the following:
• out-of-balance front or rear wheels.
• out-of-round tires.
Shudder or vibration during acceleration may be
caused by the following:
• damaged powertrain/drivetrain mounts.
• excessively high constant velocity (CV) joint operating angles caused by incorrect ride height.
Check ride height, verify correct spring rate and
check items under inoperative conditions.
Road Test
A gear-driven unit will produce a certain amount
of noise. Some noise is acceptable and may be
audible at certain speeds or under various driving
conditions, as on a newly paved asphalt road. The slight noise is in no way detrimental and must be
considered normal.
The road test and customer interview (if available)
provide information needed to identify the condition
and give direction to the correct starting point for
diagnosis.
1. Make notes throughout the diagnosis routine.
Make sure to write down even the smallest bit
of information, because it may turn out to be the
most important.
2. Do not touch anything until a road test and a thorough visual inspection of the vehicle have
been carried out. Leave the tire pressures and
vehicle load just where they were when the
condition was first observed. Adjusting tire
pressures, vehicle load or making other
adjustments may reduce the condition(s)
intensity to a point where it cannot be identified
clearly. It may also inject something new into
the system, preventing correct diagnosis.
3. Make a visual inspection as part of the preliminary diagnosis routine, writing down
anything that does not look right. Note tire
pressures, but do not adjust them yet. Note
leaking fluids, loose nuts and bolts, or bright
spots where components may be rubbing
against each other. Check the load space for
unusual loads.
4. Road test the vehicle and define the condition by reproducing it several times during the road
test.
5. Carry out the Road Test Quick Checks as soon as the condition is reproduced. This will identify
the correct diagnostic procedure. Carry out the
Road Test Quick Checks more than once to
verify they are providing a valid result.
Remember, the Road Test Quick Checks may
not tell where the concern is, but they will tell
where it is not.
Road Test Quick Checks
1. 24-80 km/h (15-50 mph): with light acceleration,a moaning noise is heard and possibly a
vibration felt in the front floor panel. It is usually
worse at a particular engine speed and at a
particular throttle setting during acceleration at
that speed. It may also produce a moaning
sound, depending on what component is
causing it. REFER to Tip-in Moan in the
Driveline Noise and Vibration Symptom Chart.
2. Acceleration/Deceleration: With slow acceleration and deceleration, a shake is

System Operation
Instrument Cluster
The instrument cluster contains analog displays
as well as warning and control lamps for displaying
the system status; in addiiton, there is an LCD
indicator field for driver information.
The instrument cluster receives the following
signals from the PCM via the high speed CAN
(controller area network) Bus (HS-CAN):
• Vehicle speed – The PCM receives the necessary signalsfrom the ABS (anti-lock brake system) wheel
sensors from the ABS control unit on the
HS-CAN.
• Engine Coolant Temperature
• Engine oil pressure.
• Engine speed
The instrument cluster receives the following
signals from the GEM via the medium speed CAN
Bus (MS-CAN):
• Ambient temperature
• Brake fluid level
• Handbrake control
• Door latch control
• Liftgate latch control
• High beam control
• Headlamp flasher control
• Direction indicator control
The fuel level signal is sent by the two fuel level
sensors in the fuel pumps in the semitrailer tank,
which is wired to the instrument cluster. The
sensors are connected in series, and the total
resistance is determined from the two individual resistors. The instrument cluster converts the raw
fuel level signal into a damped fuel level value.
The odometer shows the total distance travelled
by the vehicle and is based on the same signal as
is processed for the daily mileage counter. The
value is recorded by the instrument cluster and
stored in a protected EEPROM (Electronically
Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory) area.
This area is a memory protected against
manipulation. If the instrument cluster detects an
error in this memory area, e.g. through damage,
the driver is notified with the "Odometer error"
message.
Message center
The message center is operated using the left-hand
switch on the steering column.
The SET/RESET button is activated to select a
submenu and change the settings. If signal tones
have been activated, a short acoustic signal will
sound each time a button is pressed.
By turning the rotary switch, the different menu
displays can be scrolled through or a setting
selected.
In this display, the navigation system can also
display direction and distance information.
In addition, safety and warning messages can be
displayed in this system, such as "Coolant
overheating", "Engine system error" or "Washer
fluid level too low". In addition to a safety message,
a general warning light (red/yellow) lights up.

3. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible)
before proceeding to the next step.
4. NOTE: If none of the following warning indicators are operating correctly this may
indicate a concern with the central junction
box (CJB). If only one or two of the following
warning indicators are not operating
correctly this may indicate an instrument
cluster concern. Verify the following warning indicators are
working correctly:
• Charging.
• Turn signals.
• Headlamps.
5. If the cause is not visually evident, verify the symptom and refer to the diagnostic tab within
the Ford approved diagnostic tool.
Configuration of the Instrument Cluster
The instrument cluster is a programmable module,
which must be configured by selecting the
Programmable Module Installation Routine on the
Ford approved diagnostic tool.
NOTE: When the new instrument cluster has been
configured with the odometer value, its
configuration cannot be decreased or matched. A
new configuration will result in an increase in the
displayed odometer value by a minimum of two
units.
NOTE: The odometer value must be recorded from
the original instrument cluster before removal.
If the odometer value cannot be obtained from
the original instrument cluster (display failure)
the customer should supply the approximate
value.
The following features will need to be configured
when a new instrument cluster is installed:
• Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
• All wheel drive
• Keyless vehicle entry
• Electronic power assisted steering
• Trip computer
• Voice control
• Parking aid

A diagnosis of the generic electronic module (GEM)
can be performed with the Ford approved
diagnostic tool. Furthermore, an integrated service
mode enables testing of the input and output
signals without the need for further tools. To enable
activation of service mode:
• switch off the ignition,
• switch off all other electrical consumers,
• apply the handbrake,
• shift to neutral
• and close the doors.
Activating the service mode
Proceed as follows to activate the service mode:
•
OPERATE the switch of the heated rear window
and HOLD IT THERE
• Turn on the ignition.
• RELEASE the switch of the heated rear window
A signal sounds and the turn signal lamps come
on to indicate that service mode has been
successfully activated.
NOTE: If the alarm is activated (in vehicles fitted
with an anti-theft alarm system), service mode
cannot be activated.
Inputs
SWITCH the windshield wiper switch to the "Off"
position to test the input signals. The following is
a list of the switch signals to be tested, in no
particular order:
• Turn signals (right, left, hazard warning lights)
• Windshield wiper stage I
• Windshield wiper stage II
• Windshield washer system • Rear window wiper
• Rear window washer system
• Doors open/closed

by the generic electronic module.
Test the windshield wiper "intermittent mode" stage
input signal (only vehicles with adjustable
intermittent mode)
The windshield wiper switch must be switched to
"intermittent mode" in order to test the input signal.
The delay times of the input signals can then be
tested by operating the rotary switch. Each change
of the rotary switch position is indicated by an
acoustic signal and illumination of the turn signals.
