REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Dual Converter H-
Pipe —4.6L (2V and 4V)
Removal
NOTE: The RH and LH catalytic converters are serviced separately.
1. Raise and support the vehicle. For additional information, refer to Section 100 - 02 .
2. CAUTION: When repairing exhaust system or removing the exhaust components,
disconnect all heated oxygen sensors (HO2S) (9F472) at the wiring connectors to prevent
damage to the heated oxygen sensors and wiring harness.
Disconnect the downstream RH and LH heated oxygen sensor connectors (9F472).
3. Disconnect the two upstream RH and LH catalyst monitor sensor connectors.
4. Remove the dual converter assembly nuts. (RH shown, LH similar.)

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Acceleration Control
Component Locations
The throttle is controlled by the accelerator cable which is connected to the accelerator pedal and
shaft.
zThe accelerator pedal and shaft should travel smoothly from the idle to the wide- open throttle
(WOT) positions. Hesitation on return or prevention of return to the idle position must not occur.
z Surrounding components such as wiring, hoses, sound insulator and floor covering must not
contact the sliding inner member of the accelerator cable or the accelerator pedal and shaft.
z The sliding inner member of the accelerator cable should not be lubricated and is not
serviceable.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Speed Control
Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell
31 , Speed Control for schematic and connector information.
Principles of Operation
The speed control system is designed to maintain vehicle speed above 48 km/h (30 mph). After the
ON switch is depressed, depressing the SET/ACCEL switch will activate the speed control servo. To
increase a set speed, either depress and hold for continuous acceleration, or momentarily tap the
SET/ACCEL switch for 1.6 km/h (1 mph) acceleration increments. To decrease a set speed, depress
and hold the COAST switch until the target speed is reached, or momentarily tap the COAST switch
for 1.6 km/h (1 mph) deceleration increments. When the speed control system has been disabled by
tapping the brake pedal, the RESUME switch can be depressed and the vehicle will return to the
original set speed if the vehicle is traveling over 48 km/h (30 mph) and the OFF switch has not been
depressed.
NOTE: The deactivator switch is provided as an additional safety feature. Normally, when the brake
pedal is depressed, an electrical signal from the brake lamp circuit to the speed control servo will
deactivate the system. Under increased brake pedal effort, the deactivator switch will open and
remove power to the speed control servo, releasing the throttle independent of the speed control
servo.
NOTE: The air bag sliding contract provides the electrical interface between the steering column wiring
and the speed control actuator switches in the steering wheel.
The inputs to the speed control servo are the:
zvehicle speed signal.

Inspection and Verification
NOTE: If any concerns are noted with the speedometer, stoplamps, or horn, address those concerns
by referring to their associated sections before continuing speed control diagnosis.
1. Verify the customer concern by operating the speed control system.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical and electrical damage.
3. If the fault is not visually evident, verify the symptom and GO to the Symptom chart.
Symptom Chart
NOTE: New speed control diagnostic software is available in Version 12 or higher for the diagnostic
tool. When using this software, it is necessary to use Next Generation Speed Control Adapter 007-
00586 with the diagnostic tool.
NOTE: Refer to the Wiring Diagrams for connector numbers stated in the Pinpoint Test.

GENERAL PROCEDURES
Air Conditioning (A/C) System Check —
Retail Procedure
NOTE: This Retail Procedure is not eligible for claiming on Ford paid repairs (warranty and ESP).
NOTE: The engine should be run at idle for 10 minutes with the air conditioning on and set to MAX A/C
before carrying out this retail procedure.
NOTE: Read and follow all of the Warnings, Cautions and Notes at the beginning of this section before
continuing.
1. Visual inspection
Open the hood and visually inspect the heating and air conditioning systems for the following:
zCoolant reservoir for correct coolant level
z Heater hoses for deterioration or loose connections
z Radiator and condenser for debris or damaged fins restricting airflow, loose mounting or
connections
z Accessory drive belt(s) and cooling fan(s) for wear or physical damage
z Refrigerant lines and connections for physical damage or loose connections
z Compressor for physical damage or loose connections
z Suction accumulator/drier for physical damage or loose connections
z Wiring and connectors for excessive wear, loose or damaged connections, or incorrect
routing
2. A/C refrigerant analysis
zCarry out air conditioning refrigerant analysis. For additional information, refer to
Refrigerant Identification Testing in this section.
z If the refrigerant fails the analysis, discontinue diagnosis and make recommendations for
repairs.
z If the refrigerant passes the analysis, carry out the air conditioning system check.
3. Air conditioning system check
zConnect manifold gauge set or charging station with gauges to refrigerant system.
z With the vehicle in park, parking brake set, thermometer installed in center panel vent,
and air conditioning system on and set to MAX A/C, start the engine.
z Record air refrigerant system pressures while running the engine at 1,500 rpm and allow
engine to return to idle.
z Operate the blower motor in all control positions and check for correct blower speed
changes.
z With the blower motor on HI, operate air discharge mode selector in all positions and
check for correct airflow in each position.
z Operate the temperature blend selector in all positions and check for correct change in
discharge temperature. Check the air discharge temperature with the selector in the
coolest position and the air conditioning on and set to MAX A/C to determine if the air
discharge temperature is acceptable for the current ambient air temperature.
z Carry out the EATC self- test (if applicable).
If the refrigerant system pressures were low, carry out the refrigerant system leak test.
