I pulled my door kick panels up on each side., you'll find OEM wiring running down the drivers side. You can pull the corner panels and have full access so you can enclose the wires in some small loom. As far as speakers, I custom fit my Kenwoods using a template(used a piece of cardboard) to...

That's how i was taught as well.

Ja cain, i understand exactly what you are talking about. One of my mos' was 72e trained using cold-war era equipment. Do you remember the old "Tripoli" commo we tried to use in the 80's. I was just trying to explain the function of the various switches( and how a couple worked as an example) A...

Does it go away above 45? Did you keep your driveline balanced/inline. You can incorrectly install a joint off 90* throwing them out of balance which creates a vibration.

Reading through this i had to think about how to post a reply. This is long winded so I apologize. Using this forum is great, a lot of experience and knowledge. You stated (originally) several things regarding gp's, starting and irregular idle and rev issues. New batteries, new starter and I...

You have an electrical issue. Whtch your tach. You can see it bounce at idle as well as when you sethigh idle. Try holding the throttle at 1700-1800 steady for a minute. Watch your tach. If it bounces you have a signal issue from the CPS. This doesn't necessarily mean the sensor is bad tho. Do...

Sitting at idle? In gear? Happen after turning? Any specifics, cold , hot....

Ja cain I understand what you are talking about on the vfd's, used to have any issue with Infinity drives. I am referring to the "back-flash" transient surge that is created when a magnetic field collapses. The IDM is designed to absorb these but over time from vibration, corrosion, component...

Purchase AE so you can diagnose and fix it yourself. There are ALOT of smart experienced people here that will help but you need to know what the PCM is seeing to fix it correctly. Don't just throw parts at it.

When my ebps failed my mileage dropped about 3mpg

If you are having any issues with the MFS, wipers, signals or hazards(hazards are what seemed to act up first, had to cycle a couple of times for awhile to work), i'd definately look at replacing or cleaning it. Cleaning it is easy just take your time and don't "scratch/pitt" the circuits(fine...

Still working on vid. First time with Tapatalk and it won't let me load from my ipad.

Disassemble the MFS carefully. Pretty easy just 4 screws. There is a slide in there that has yo align with the lever. I used 1000grit to clean it as you want it cleaned/polished without scratches. Yes I used a light coat of dielectric grease. Doing controls for so long I used vav commo wire. You...

This is what I was taught way back in the 80's. Batteries have 6 cells on a 12v battery. Each one, under optimal conditions is rated for 2.3v which is equal to 13.8v. At 5% over you are at 14.49. At 10% over you come to 15.18v. It's been awhile but I believe Ford doesn't recommend over 14.5v...

Working on getting my video's up. The issue seems to have been associated to the wiper circuit. Was it because of the corrosion in the MFS, I believe so but I'm not positive which is why I wanted to go into so much detail and post this. "WoodnThings" fixed his installing just shunts but said...

I'd replace the GPR. It carries the load to the gp's. I wouldn't necessarily change the uvch's but would definitely test resistance values to the 42pin from them before you start and after you have everything plugged back in PRIOR to reinstallation of the piping. Use a good meter 200ohm scale...

You should be able to find one. Number looks familar. What year? Auto?

In my case, absolutely. Most cases, well I am close to positive but that is based on two cases that were cured, that I know of, and information on the "memo" that Ford engineers have out discussing the "phantom" feedback issues. They have not issued a TSB.(think of the recall $). They state to...

That or pull the bed.

I'd unplug at the 42pin and the IDM. Check your resistance on the ground circuit, i seriously suspect it. Look for even the slightest resistance increase. One stand of wire out of a bundle of say 25 will show good continuity but won't carry a load. With the harness disconnected if nothing...
