1.6.1 Antenna Location
The antenna can be placed on the roof of the
vehicle with the exception of cellular phone car
kits which transmit power below 2W. Such low
power devices may also be installed at the
bottom of the A-pillar behind the trim or on the
front windscreen.
Installation must be performed by suitably
qualified personnel in accordance with the
equipment manufacturer's installation instructions
and comply with the ISO technical specification
ISO/TS 21609: Road Vehicles - Electromagnetic
Compatibility guidelines for the installation of after
market radio frequency transmitting equipment.
In addition, the following guidelines must be
followed during installation:
•Do not mount any transceiver, microphones,
speakers or any other item in the deployment
path of the airbag system.
•Do not attach antenna cables to any part of
the original vehicle wiring or fuel and brake
pipes.
•Antenna and power cables must be a
minimum of 100mm from any electronic
modules and airbags.
•Make sure that any additional power feed is
taken directly from the SVO fuse box (when
available) or a recommended connection
point.
•Power and ground cables should be of higher
current capacity that the protection fuse.
Ground feed must be taken directly to the
battery.
Post installation checks must be made for
disturbances from and to all electrical equipment
in the vehicle both in the standby and transmit
modes. Checks should be carried out with the
ignition ON, engine running and be followed by a
road test at various speeds.

4.3 Charging System
4.3.1 General Information and
Specific Warnings
The Transit electrical system is a 12-Volt supply
with a negative earth return. The alternator and
battery equipment used as standard are
designed for normal operations with the type of
engine fitted. Higher capacity batteries are
available as standard production options and
special vehicle options. Before installing additional
electrical equipment check that the battery
capacity, harness load capability, and alternator
output are suitable for the extra load.
The battery capacity and charge available from
the alternator must be adequate to ensure
engine cranking in unfavorable climatic conditions
but excessive battery capacity could damage
the starter motor.
The Transit utilizes multiplexed vehicle electronics
- it is recommended that the appropriate Ford
proprietary accessory systems are used.
Inappropriate or incorrect connection of
additional equipment could cause mis-operation,
or damage to the vehicle, and so invalidate any
warranty.
Additional connection points are provided
specifically for customer use (except M1 and M2
Bus), and are located on the outside of the
driver's seat base.
Do not jump-start the vehicle directly from the
battery. Use designated jump-start points. Refer
to the owners literature.
4.3.2 Power Management
Settings
There are four Power Management Settings
available:
•Factory
•Transport
•Normal
•Crash
Factory and Transport modes are only active
with ignition off; with ignition on, the vehicle
operates with full functionality. When in Transport
mode, the interior lights, clocks, and power
locking and alarms (where fitted) do not work.
It is possible to switch from Transport Mode to
Normal Mode without the use of any ancillary
equipment, but not vice versa. To change mode,
the brake pedal must be depressed five times,
and the hazard warning switch operated twice
(in any combination) within 10 seconds.
WARNING: It is not possible to return
the transport setting without using
the vehicle's diagnostics.
At the end of production, the vehicle is
configured to the transport setting to minimize
power consumption. As part of the Pre Delivery
Inspection process at the Ford dealership, the
vehicle is reconfigured to normal operation.
4.3.3 Electrical Conversions
Operator requirements for additional and
specialised electrical equipment varies. The
vehicle converter/modifier must, therefore,
consider the following points when designing the
installation:
•Legality and regulatory conformity of the base
vehicle.
•Drive-ability and serviceability of the base
vehicle.
•The effect of regulations governing the
proposed conversion including National
Legislation in the country of sale.
•The method of integrating the circuit into the
base vehicle.
•No additional circuits are to be run alongside
the electrical circuits (shown in blue in the
figure below) associated with the
Management System (shown in green in the
figure below), due to the possible Electro
Motive Force (EMF) effect on the circuits.

•Before disconnecting the battery, check
availability of radio key code.
•Fuses – when auxiliary electrical systems are
to be added to the vehicle it is mandatory that
the additional circuit design includes the
necessary fuses.
•The Special Vehicle Option auxiliary fuse box
is recommended.
Refer to: 4.13 Fuses and Relays (page 119).
4.3.4 Fitting of Equipment
Containing an Electric Motor
WARNINGS:
When equipment containing an
electrical motor is connected, it
must be connected via a blocking
diode or relay to prevent “back
Electro Motive Force (EMF)” being
applied to the auxiliary terminal.
When electric motors are to be
fitted, account must be taken of the
potentially high currents that a
motor can draw.
CAUTION: The following must be
observed:
•All motors must be driven via relays with
contacts rated at least 3 times the maximum
rated current of the motor.
•All motor supply circuits must be individually
fused with the proper fuse rating for the
motor.
•All power wiring must be rated for at least 3
times the rating of the motor and installed as
far away as possible from any existing vehicle
wiring.
•All motors fitted should be fully suppressed to
ensure electrical interference does not affect
the vehicle systems.
•Add EMC emissions statement to CE
approval.
4.3.5 Vehicle Electrical Capacity
- Alternator
WARNING: Do not cut into the
alternator wires or use the
alternator as a source to obtain a
'D+ Signal'
An engine run signal is available from the Central
Junction Box by installing a T-piece jumper
harness (Ford Part Number 6C1V-14A411-F_).
Refer to: 4.14 Special Conversions (page 131).
4.3.6 Charge Balance Guidelines
The base vehicle is fitted with a 150A alternator.
It is recommended to conduct a charge balance
calculation in case the conversion comprises a
high number of electrical consumers or high
electrical consumption is expected.
4.3.7 Circuit Diagrams
For circuit diagrams for Auxiliary Fuse Box
Connections and Standard Ford relays.
Refer to: 4.13 Fuses and Relays (page 119).
Full vehicle wiring and circuit diagrams are in the
Ford Workshop Manual.
NOTE: For further information please contact
your local National Sales Company
representative, or Local Ford Dealer. If they are
unable to help you then please contact the
Vehicle Converter Advisory Service at
[email protected].

4.4 Battery and Cables
4.4.1 Battery Information
In order to protect the battery system from direct
ground shorts, a special fuse is incorporated into
the battery positive feed, in the pre-fuse box
under the driver’s seat.
This fuse is not repairable – use only a Ford
replacement part.
Where extra batteries are required on vehicles
with a single battery installation, the battery
disconnect switch (split charge relay) and
associated wiring/hardware — fitted as standard
to vehicles equipped with dual batteries — can
be added.
Batteries – Additional – Heavy Duty
High current consumption may require a
heavy-duty battery or an additional battery.
Factory fitted Special Vehicle Options are available
for heavy-duty and/or extra batteries with the
battery disconnect switch (split charge relay).
The batteries can be retrofitted.
See diagram E74522 - Battery disconnect switch
(split charge relay) circuit.
Deep Cycle Battery (not for use as
primary, start-relevant battery)
A Special Vehicle Option is available. Please
contact your local National Sales Company
representative for availability and details.
•The deep cycle battery is used in conjunction
with the battery disconnect switch (split charge
relay) in applications where power to ancillary
circuits would heavily discharge the main
vehicle battery(s).
•Installation should be under the driver's seat.
When the deep cycle battery is installed, the
battery disconnect switch (split charge relay)
must be used.
•When the Deep Cycle Battery is installed it is
recommended that the Special Vehicle Option
auxiliary fuse box is fed from the customer
connection points.
