GENERAL PROCEDURES
Transmission Draining and Filling
1. Remove the drain plug and drain the transmission. zPosition a suitable drain pan under the transmission.
2. Clean and install the drain plug.
3. NOTE: Before removing, clean the area around the filler plug.
Remove the filler plug.
4. Using a suitable oil suction gun, fill the transmission to the correct level with the specified fluid. zTransmission capacity is 3.9 liters (4.1 quarts).

evaporator core, it absorbs heat from the passenger compartment airflow passing over the plate/fin
sections of the A/C evaporator core. This addition of heat causes the refrigerant to boil (convert to a
gas). The now cooler passenger compartment air can no longer support the same humidity level of the
warmer air and this excess moisture condenses on the exterior of the evaporator coils and fins and
drains outside the vehicle.
The suction accumulator/drier (19C836) is designed to remove moisture from the refrigerant and to
prevent any liquid refrigerant that may not have been vaporized in the A/C evaporator core from
reaching the A/C compressor. The A/C compressor is designed to pump refrigerant vapor only, as
liquid refrigerant will not compress and can damage the A/C compressor.
The refrigerant cycle is now repeated with the A/C compressor again increasing the pressure and
temperature of the refrigerant.
The A/C cycling switch (19E561) interrupts compressor operation before the external temperature of
the A/C evaporator core gets low enough to cause the condensed water vapor (excess humidity) to
turn to ice. It does this by monitoring low side line pressure. It is known that a refrigerant pressure of
approximately 210 kPa (30 psi) will yield an operating temperature of 0°C (32°F). The A/C cycling
switch controls system operation in an effort to maintain this temperature.
The high side line pressure is also monitored so that the A/C compressor operation can be interrupted
if system pressure becomes too high.
The A/C compressor pressure relief valve (19D644) will open and vent refrigerant to relieve unusually
high system pressure.

Connect an R-
134a A/C service center to the low- and high-pressure service gauge port valves.
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 System Evacuation
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. Connect an R- 134a service center to the low- and high-pressure service gauge port valves.
2. Evacuate the system until the low- pressure gauge reads at least 99.4 kPa (29.5 in- Hg) of
vacuum and as close to 101.1 kPa (30 in- Hg) as possible. Continue to operate the vacuum
pump for a minimum of 45 minutes.
3. Turn off the vacuum pump. Observe the low- pressure gauge for five minutes to make sure that
the system vacuum is held. If vacuum is not held for five minutes, leak test the system, service
the leak, and evacuate the system again.
Refrigerant System Charging
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. Correctly oil match the system to verify that the correct amount of refrigerant oil is present in the system. For additional information, refer to Refrigerant Oil Adding in this section.
2. Charge the system with the specified amounts of refrigerant oil and refrigerant.
3. When no more refrigerant is being drawn into the system, start the engine and select MAX A/C operation. Adjust the blower motor speed to the maximum and allow the remaining refrigerant to
be drawn into the system. Continue to add refrigerant into the system until the specified weight
of R- 134a has been added. Close the charging cylinder valve and allow the system to pull any
remaining refrigerant from the hose. When the low- pressure drops to approximately 207 kPa
(30 psi), close the charging hose valve. Klj . 2 ba

The boost pressure gauge on the instrument cluster receives and measures the boost pressure
directly from the intake manifold. The boost pressure gauge will display between 0.0-
0.48 kpa (0.0-10
psi) boost pressure dependent upon accelerator position, engine load, and engine rpm.
LOW FUEL Level Indicator
The low fuel level indicator is hardwired from the fuel sender to the instrument cluster. The instrument
cluster will illuminate the low fuel indicator when the usable fuel quantity is less than 1/8 tank (15%) of
fuel tank capacity.
Oil Pressure Gauge
The oil pressure gauge is hardwired from the oil pressure switch to the instrument cluster. The oil
pressure gauge will indicate either normal or no oil pressure.
CHECK FUEL CAP
The CHECK FUEL CAP indicator is used to indicate significant leaks in the fuel tank evaporative
system due to a loose fuel cap. Fuel tank pressure is monitored by the PCM. If a leak is detected the
PCM signals a fault to the instrument cluster via the SCP network. Once the PCM has detected a
loose fuel cap and the CHECK FUEL CAP indicator is illuminated, the indicator will remain illuminated
until the fuel cap is secured and the vehicle has been running for several minutes. For additional
information, refer to the Powertrain Control/Emissions Diagnosis (PC/ED) manual.
BRAKE Warning Indicator
The BRAKE warning indicator activates when the generic electronic module (GEM) detects the ignition
switch circuits are in the RUN state, when the GEM detects low brake fluid level, or that the parking
brake is applied. The BRAKE warning indicator will prove out starting when the GEM detects that the
ignition circuits have made a transition to RUN or START from OFF, ACC, or keyout and ending when
either three seconds have elapsed or when the GEM detects the ignition circuits have made a
transition to OFF, ACC, or keyout.
Safety Belt Warning Indicator
The safety belt switch is hardwired to the GEM. The safety belt warning indicator will be illuminated
when the GEM sends a ground signal to the instrument cluster.
ABS Warning Indicator
The ABS warning indicator will be illuminated when the anti- lock brake control module sends a ground
signal to the instrument cluster. The prove- out of the ABS indicator is controlled by the anti- lock brake
control module.
SERVICE ENGINE SOON Indicator
The SERVICE ENGINE SOON indicator receives its signal from the PCM over the SCP network. If the
instrument cluster does not receive a message from the PCM within five seconds, the instrument
cluster will illuminate the SERVICE ENGINE SOON indicator and log a diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
High Beam Indicator
The high beam indicator will illuminate when the steering column multifunction switch is in the high
beam position by sending a battery signal to the instrument cluster. Right and Left Turn Indicator Klj . 3 ba
