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.

Refer to: 4.14 Special Conversions (page 131).
(Adding Connectors, Terminals and Wiring)
WARNING: Make sure that the
modified vehicle complies with all
relevant legal requirements.
4.11.1 Reversing Lamps
These are hard-wired, activated by the reversing
switch on the transmission and passing through
the Central Junction Box where the signal is
sensed. A marginal increase in current (via a relay
or buffered electrical input) is permissible to
trigger a rear-view camera system, or audible
device.
4.11.2 Additional External Lamps
All power for additional exterior lamps must 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).
• If CAT 6 directional indicators are to be fitted,
the Central Junction Box will need to be
configured for this.
• The load on the reversing lamps should not
exceed a total of 3A (42W).

Where wires are required to be extended, break
in points should only be at existing connector
points and only Ford approved connectors should
be used.
Ford approved link harnesses should be used.
Unused Connectors
The harnesses may have a number of unused
connectors – these are dedicated to other
features and options, e.g. heated seats, but are
not always present depending on level of
harness fitted. Ford do not recommend the use
of these connectors for any other purpose than
that intended by design.
Power Outlet / Cigar Lighter
Both features adopt a 20A fusing strategy. With
a single battery system, continued loading of
these features will lead to battery drain, and risk
vehicle starting. If continuous power is required,
a second battery option should be installed and
the customer connection points, where fitted,
utilized.
4.14.4 Installation and Routing Guides

Anti-Lock Brake System Wiring Harness Routing
The installation and routing of Ford wiring
(including those provided as part of accessory
kits such as trailer tow) have been fully-validated
and have passed the requisite EMC tests. Ford
Motor Company; however, are not responsible
for the vehicle’s EMC immunity when
non-Ford-approved systems are installed.
WARNING: Do not route other wiring
near/close to electrical cables with
the Antilock Brake System and
Traction Control System cables
because of extraneous signal risk.
It is generally not recommended to
hang it off existing looms or pipes.
