Principles of Operation
NOTE: The rear parking aid system will be
de-activated when a Ford rear trailer tow module
is attached to the vehicle.
The ultrasonic parking aid system will default to
enabled when the ignition switch is turned to the
RUN position, the system is activated by selecting
reverse gear. The parking aid system will be
disabled if a fault is detected in one of the four rear
parking aid sensors, the parking aid speaker or the
parking aid module. An error tone approximately
3 seconds long will be emitted from the rear parking
aid speaker if a fault is detected. The rear parking
aid speaker will also sound for approximately 3
seconds if an error is detected at each ignition
cycle or if an error is detected when the system
has been activated.
Inspection and Verification
1. Verify the customer concern. 2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of electrical
damage.

Inspection and Verification
WARNINGS: Batteries contain sulphuric acid. Avoid
contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Also,
shield your eyes when working near
batteries to protect against possible
splashing of the acid solution. In case of
acid contact with skin or eyes, flush
immediately with water for a minimum of
15 minutes and get prompt medical
attention. If acid is swallowed, call a
physician immediately. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in personal
injury.
Batteries normally produce explosive
gases which can cause personal injury.
Therefore, do not allow flames, sparks or
lighted substances to come near the
battery. When charging or working near a
battery, always shield your face and
protect your eyes. Always provide
ventilation. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in personal injury.
1. Verify the customer concern.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical
or electrical damage.

2. Switch the multimeter to the voltage function.
3. Connect the leads of the multimeter across the
battery terminals.
4. Read the voltage (base voltage).
5. Start the engine.
6. Run the engine at 1500 rpm with no electrical load.
7. Read the voltage. The voltage should be in the range of 14.1 volts to 15.1 volts. If the voltage
increase is less than 2.5 volts above the base
voltage, carry out the Load Test. If the voltage
increase is greater than 2.5 volts, REFER to the
Ford diagnostic equipment. Generator On-Vehicle Tests - Load Test
1. With the engine running, turn on the air
conditioning (if equipped), turn the blower motor
to high speed and the headlamps to high beam.
2. Increase the engine speed to 2000 rpm. The voltage should increase a minimum of 0.5 volts
above the base voltage. If the voltage does not
increase as specified, REFER to the Ford
approved diagnostic tool. If the voltage
increases as specified, the charging system is
charging correctly.

Using the Midtronics EXP-1050 battery
tester
• Disconnect the battery ground cable at the battery negative (-) post. Note: if using this
battery tester on models where the ground cable
is not accessible, the battery does not have to
be removed from the vehicle and may be tested
using the vehicle's 'jump start post' if the battery
tester is set to the correct mode. In this case,
the battery must be disconnected at the positive
(+) post before testing.
• Connect the positive red clamp of the Midtronics
EXP-1050 battery tester to the battery positive
(+) post.
• Connect the negative black clamp of the Midtronics EXP-1050 battery tester to the
battery negative (-) post or jump start post as
appropriate.
A poor connection will prevent testing and the
battery tester will display the message CHECK
CONNECTION. If this message appears after you have correctly reconnected the clamps, clean the
terminals and reconnect.
It is recommended that batteries are always tested
using both battery posts. However, if used in 'jump
start post' mode, the Midtronics EXP-1050 battery
tester will compensate for the extra resistance of
the additional cable.
