WARNING: Unapproved and/or

mating wiring can cause either the
associated systems to shut down
(overload protection), or permanent
damage to the Central Junction Box
itself.
Basic vehicle functions (for example: headlights,
front wipers) are available on all Central Junction
Boxes (CJBs). Increased vehicle features are
available on the mid- and high-level CJBs, as per
the following list:

4.12 Interior Lighting
4.12.1 Additional Internal Lamps
Additional cabin interior lighting may be obtained
by directly accessing the connector inside the
dome lamp in the cab.
Additional load space interior lighting may be
obtained by directly accessing the connector
inside the load space lamps in the load space
area.
CAUTION: The maximum total
internal lamp load must not exceed
5A (75W)
Power for the Interior Lights - cabin and
cargo areas – comes from the battery save
system (Central Junction Box pin C2-31), and for
vehicles with power locking,* the circuit for each
area is controlled by a separate pin on the Central
Junction Box:
•Front (cabin) lights, pin C2-22
•Rear (cargo) lights, pin C2-27 wire not present
on chassis cab and cab-van-floor vehicles
* with manual locking vehicles, control of interior
lighting is done directly through the door contact
switches. All vehicles, however, utilise the battery
saver relay to provide power for internal lighting
for a limited time.
Each of these pins on the Central Junction Box
can take a load of 75W. Lights that are controlled
by the battery save circuit will extinguish 30 to
180 minutes after ignition off (dependent on
vehicle configuration).
4.12.2 Additional 'Theatre
Lighting' for rear of vehicle
interior
For chassis cab or cab-van floor (and camper)
vehicles, rear lighting is not utilised and so there
is no wire to pin C2-27. However, converters can
add their own lights (up to the max. load) via the
battery save or a separate switchable feed, by
adding a pre-crimped wire and terminal to
connector C2. This is located on the Central
Junction Box behind the glove box on the
passenger side (please refer to Figures E84705
and E84712).
Refer to: 4.14 Special Conversions (page 131).
(Adding connectors, Terminals and Wiring)
Where higher wattage installations are required,
these should be taken through the Auxiliary Fuse
Box with a suitable switch and / or relay as
required.
Refer to: 4.13 Fuses and Relays (page 119).

The fitment of the Special Vehicle Option auxiliary
box will provide a power source for the relay
(although connection to the engine run pin is still
required).
Where connections are already made to the
engine run signal, it is vital that these connections
remain connected. In this instance, a suitable 'Y'
Jumper link should be used to tap out of the
connection.
Refer to: 4.13 Fuses and Relays (page 119).
If a positive (+12V) engine run signal is required,
this is possible by using the relay contacts to ‘pull
in’ 12V (preferably an ignition feed, KL15)

Cutting into the Original Wiring
System
WARNINGS:
Under no circumstances should the
CAN bus be tampered with. This
may lead to failure of safety critical
components such as Anti-lock
Brake System.
Do not use connectors which cut
through the outer covering and into
the core wire
CAUTION: Only use Ford approved
connectors
Cutting into vehicle wiring is not permitted
because:-
•The base vehicle specification is unsuitable
for incremental loads except in conjunction
with Special Vehicle Option Auxiliary Fuse Box.
•Long term risk of a faulty connection
developing.
•Potential fire risk from over-loading.
All connections into existing wiring must be
permanently insulated. Exterior connections must
be water-proof.

However, it is possible to add an additional lock(s)
– see also the section covering the ‘third button
on key fob’ – but only by utilizing relays (the
electric locks are operated by surface mounted
relays in the Central Junction Box – these are
only capable of powering one lock each, in
addition to which the output of these devices is
current-sensed to check it is within minimum and
maximum limits: I) to verify operation, and ii) as
part of the security system). For camper vehicles,
the Central Junction Box is configured for a
chassis cab vehicle.
Depending on functionality required, the pins
used will emulate the basic locking/unlocking
operation of an existing door. Note, however,
that any additional locks will not be covered by
the vehicle alarm or operate Central Junction
Box controlled lighting, etc. It would be necessary
to splice into either the Central Junction Box
connector or the in-line connector for the door
jumper harness. The coil of the relay (max.
300mA) should be added across the relevant
pin and ground (i.e. one relay for lock all, one
relay for driver door unlock etc.)
The use of Ford Transit lock mechanisms is
strongly recommended as the Central Junction
Box is designed to drive these latches for the
correct amount of time.

Locking Configurations- The following list
details specific locking scenarios that have been
noted by customers:
1.Raid locking or drive away locking for taxi and
parcel van usage – this is a configurable
parameter in the Central Junction Box (Ford
Dealerships can set this).
2.Slam locking – this is a configurable parameter
in Central Junction Box (marketing want to
sell this as an option, therefore dealerships
can only switch off this feature, but not switch
on).
3.N1 lock reconfiguration into M2 locking, i.e. no
deadlocks – this can be reconfigured to be
central-locking only by a Ford Dealer (via
Dealership hotline).

5.3.1 Load Compartment Interior
Lining
Do not damage the lock or latch system
(electrical cables, release system) when applying
interior lining.
WARNING: Plan fixing points for
other fitments such as racking to
ensure through bolting can be
achieved. Fixing to the lining
material may be inadequate for
normal safe operation of the vehicle.
The additional weight of the linings on doors may
require additional reinforcements to the door and
pillar at the hinge and check mechanism.
5.3.2 Security, Anti Theft and
Locking System Security
NOTE: It is not recommended to alter the
locking system.
However, in case a modification is required for
the conversions, please consult the Vehicle
Converter Advisory Service [email protected].
To avoid locking system security complications,
it is recommended to discuss with the local Ford
dealer prior to modifications taking place.
The Central Junction Box is designed to work
specifically with the Ford Transit lock and latch
mechanisms and therefore drives latches to lock
and unlock for specific time periods. Additional
power locking functionality should be based
around the use of additional Ford Transit latch
mechanisms. Additional latches can be driven
via relays connected in parallel with existing
latches.
On Chassis Cabs fitted with a high-level
Passenger Junction Box, the cargo door latch
driver is not used by the base vehicle and can
be used by Body Builders wishing to add power
locking capability to the vehicle load space. This
latch can be controlled via the driver's door key
barrel or the cargo unlock button on the remote
key fob (dependent on vehicle configuration).
The following figures outline the areas in which
it is not advisable to drill:

5.7.5 Roof Racks
Roof racks may be fitted to all van, bus and kombi
variants as illustrated in figure E75917, providing
the following is satisfied:
•The carried load does not exceed 100kg (Body
Builder to ensure owner’s hand book identifies
this limitation).
•The carried load does not exceed 300mm
load height (converter to ensure owner’s
information book identifies this limitation).
•The load is evenly distributed (converter to
ensure owner’s information book identifies this
limitation).
•The rack and subsequent carried load is
supported in the roof drip rails irrespective of
rack retaining method.
•The unit load on the roof drip, under worst
case loading, must not exceed 75kg per rack
foot.
•The rack is clamped to the drip rail at six (6)
points per illustration, or alternatively bolted
through the roof panel with minimum six (6)
M8 bolts, self locking nuts and 3mm X 50mm
square spread plates.
•The rack leading edge preferably should not
be located forward of the rear edge of the
driver’s door, or “B” pillar as shown.
Double Cab
The forgoing limitations are based on ensuring
body structure integrity, vehicle handling, braking
and plated axle weights. Such considerations
must also be applied to any double cab
applications, in particular steering, braking and
front axle plated weight and the extra continuous
loads on the “A” pillar, which should not exceed
60 kg total incremental load.
Ensure that the planned loaded vehicle operates
within its designed Center of Gravity condition.

Advisory Service [email protected].
