Gary Lewis Posted April 19, 2020 Author Share Posted April 19, 2020 Ahhh! That makes sense. But owner's guides are problematic. Ford did them two different ways - long sheets of paper stapled in the middle, and narrow sheets of paper glued on the edge. I've given up scanning long sheets of paper since they have 4 different pages on them and it is a mess getting them sorted and cropped. So, please don't send something that you don't want me to cut up in order to scan it. Today I added Ford's catalog for connectors and pigtails: Documentation/Electrical/Connectors.

Obviously didn't look long enough. I'll clean that up. Any suggestions? I like having the document on the site as that ensures it won't go away. But the info on the pins is good and needs to be retained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, after perusing what I have in the Documentation/Electrical section with regard to terminals, connectors, etc I've come to realize that IT IS A MESS! Here are the pages and contents we have, with the bullet showing the name of the page and then the tabs listed: Connectors: This is the new page and just has the 2015 version of the Wiring Pigtail Kits Identification Guide Terminals & Connectors: Illustrations of the connectors, including a type #; Connectors - part numbers for many of the connectors/sleeves used and their type #; Terminals & Connectors - I think these are actually the terminals; Sources - has Bill's spreadsheet on where to get some of the terminals Wiring Connectors: Has supposedly links to both the 2008 and 2015 Wiring Pigtail Kits Identification Guides, but the 2008 version is MIA; also has info and pics of two terminal types. Obviously this needs to be reconciled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the two connector sections just need to be merged, with your most recent catalog addition being primary, and the external links being just that, external links with no image. As for the rest of the electrical section, I haven't looked at it enough to notice the issues so I have no suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was looking for something in the Illustrations section of the MPC and ran across the wiring routing. Had been looking for it, so added this page: Documentation/Electrical/Wiring Routing. Has info on the: Camper, aux battery, and trailer tow relay wiring Main wiring harness, including a nice shot of the back of the instrument cluster, under hood, fuse block, down the frame, etc Battery & starter, which answers the question we discussed recently about how those wires are to be run Power door lock wiring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Documentation/Reference) And in it so far you'll find: Hose & Fittings: This is the page Angelo asked for with the fitting and hose size chart Standard & Utility Parts Catalog: This tells you the details about all of those things in the Master Parts Catalog's illustrations. Let's take the cooling system illustration below. I see these fasteners and the new catalog tells me: N606676: M6 22.5mm long and 9.8 hardness. And, it is a Type 11 so it looks like 383375: This is a #12 spring nut that has A & B dimensions of 5/8", is Grade 5, and looks like 383152: This is a 1/4 - 14 self-tapping screw that is 5/8" long and looks like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
