CAUTION: Make sure to follow the
equipment suppliers instructions for
safety, warranty and sometimes
legal compliance
For electrical supply to auxiliary equipment.
Refer to: 4.3 Charging System (page 95).

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.

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.

Battery Rules:
•Batteries in parallel must be of the same type
and capacity.
•Starter and deep cycle batteries may only be
mixed through an isolator.
•For External charging of batteries ensure that
the maximum voltage of 14.6V is not
exceeded.
NOTE: Deep cycle batteries can be drained but
high loads can damage them. Always observe
circuit set-up outlined in diagram E74522 -
Battery disconnect switch (split charge relay).
