Instrument Cluster and Panel Illumination
Refer to
Wiring Diagrams Section 413-00, for
schematic and connector information.
Principles of Operation
NOTE: A new instrument cluster must be
configured.
The instrument cluster and panel illumination
consists of dimmable and non-dimmable
illumination. The dimmable panel illumination is
controlled by the panel illumination switch (part of
the headlamp switch), which allows the brightness
level of the backlights to be adjusted dependent
on the customer preference. When the headlamp
switch is in the parking lamps ON or headlamps
ON position, the intensity of the backlighting can
be adjusted using the panel dimmer switch. The
non dimmable illumination allows for full intensity
dependant on the ignition switch position.

Vehicles with upgraded audio system.
The upgraded audio system is available with the
following equipment:
• • Radio/individual CD player with MP3
• • Radio/individual CD player with MP3 and
Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB)
• • Radio with integrated 6x CD changer with MP3
• • Radio with integrated 6x CD changer with MP3
and DAB
DAB radio
DAB is a procedure for digital transmission of radio
programs.
The DAB system was developed in Europe within
the framework of a European development program
and in recent years has been introduced in many
European countries.
The audio signals from up to 12 radio stations are
packaged into a multiplex and bundled into a single
data stream. This is then broadcast via one or more
terrestrial transmitters. This means that individual
transmitters are no longer needed for each radio
station.
In addition to the much larger range of stations that
can be provided to radio listeners through DAB,
there are also several big technical advantages
over the current FM, MW, LW and SW
transmission:
• Provided the receiver can receive the signal from the DAB transmitter, sound reproduction
is guaranteed. There is no fading, as is typical
for AM and mobile FM reception.
• Interference, such as crackling noises caused by high voltage lines, is filtered out by the DAB
receiver. • With DAB, there is no overlapping of different
stations.
• If the transmission signal is reflected by natural obstacles or buildings while en route, this
causes interference with FM. With DAB,
however, reception is significantly improved by
this.
Service linking
As soon as the audio device no longer receives
the FM signal in sufficient quality, it automatically
switches to the corresponding DAB transmitter, but
the FM display in the audio device remains active.
When the FM signal becomes available again in
sufficient quality, the device automatically switches
back.
AUX port
The audio systems have an auxiliary device input
(AUX IN) which enables the playback of auxiliary
devices such as MiniDisc or MP3 players via the
vehicle's audio system. Sounds is played back
through the vehicle loudspeakers.
Radio remote control. The following functions can be controlled with the
remote control:

System Operation
General
In a communications network (data bus system),
various modules of different systems are connected
to one another via one or several lines.
The data bus system is used exclusively for
transmitting data between the connected modules,
as well as between the connected modules and
the Ford diagnostic unit.
In a data bus system, complete data blocks are
transmitted instead of single on/off pulses. In
addition to the actual information, these data blocks
also contain data regarding the address of the
module to be addressed, the size of the data block
and information for monitoring the content of each
individual data block.
Data bus systems offer various advantages: • Simplified data transmission between the
modules due to a standardized protocol
• Fewer sensors and connectors
• Improved diagnostic options
• Lower costs
The DLC is connected to the various data bus
systems and to the power supply via the standard
16-pin GEM. The signal for the module
programming is also transferred via the DLC.
In a data bus system, if there is a break in one or
both lines or there is a short to ground or to voltage,
then communication between the modules and
with the Ford diagnostic unit is disturbed or is no
longer possible at all.
In order to be able to establish communication with
one another, the modules of the individual systems G1030779en

must use the same language. This language is
called a protocol.
At present, Ford uses three different data bus
systems. Depending upon model and equipment
level, all three data bus systems are used. Each
of these data bus systems has its own protocol.
Data bus systems
ISO 9141 bus
The International Organisation for Standardisation
ISO 9141 bus. This consists of a single wire and
is used exclusively for communication between the
modules and the Ford diagnostic unit. The fault
memories of the various modules are read out via
the ISO 9141 bus.
Local Interconnect Network (LIN) bus
The LIN bus is a standard specifically designed for
cost-effective communication between intelligent
sensors and actuators in vehicles. The LIN control
unit subnet is used in every situation where the
bandwidth and versatility of CAN is not needed.
The LIN specification comprises the LIN protocol,
a standard format for describing a complete LIN
and the interface between an LIN and the
application. An LIN comprises a LIN master and
one or more LIN slaves. The LIN utilizes the
master/slave principle for the purpose of bus
access control. This has the significant advantage
that few resources (CPU performance, ROM, RAM)
are required for bus management in the slave
module. The master is implemented in a control
module or a gateway which has the necessary
resources. All communication is initiated by the
master. Consequently, a message always consists
of a header, which is generated by the master, and
a response from the slave. The data transfer rate
is in the region of up to 20 Kbit/s. The LIN master
knows the time sequence of all data which are to
be transmitted. These data are transmitted by the
corresponding LIN slaves (e.g. ultrasonic sensors)
if they are requested to do so by the LIN master.
LIN is a single-wire bus, i.e. the data are
transmitted in the cable via one wire. Usually the
same cable is also used to provide the supply
voltage. The ground connection of the supply
voltage also acts as the ground connection of the
data transmission. An LIN does not use a
terminating resistor.
Controller Area Network (CAN) bus
This consists of two twisted wires and operates
serially (data is transmitted sequentially). It is used
for communication between the modules
themselves and between the modules and the Ford
diagnostic unit. The modules are connected to the
data bus in parallel. New modules can be
incorporated easily, without modifying the other
wiring or modules. The transmitted data is received
by every module connected to the control unit
network (CAN). As each data packet has an
identifier (label), in which the priority of the
message is determined as well as the content
identification, each module can detect whether or
not the data is relevant for its own information
processing. This enables several modules to be
addressed with a particular data packet and
supplied with data simultaneously. For this
purpose, it is ensured that important data (for
example from the ABS) is transmitted first. The
other modules are only able to submit their data to
the data bus after the high-priority messages have
been received.
The advantages of the CAN bus are:
• Minimization of wiring requirements
•
High degree of error protection (fault / fail-proof)
• Robustness
• Good extendibility
• Prioritization of messages
• Inexpensive
• Automatic repetition of faulty messages
• Independent system monitoring and the ability to disconnect faulty modules from the data bus
automatically
Due to the increased number of modules and the
resulting continued increase in data transfer, two
different CAN bus systems are used. Essentially,
they only differ in terms of their data transmission
rates and application areas.
To be able to distinguish between the individual
CAN bus systems, the CAN bus system with the
high transfer speed is called the high speed CAN
bus (HS-CAN). The data are transmitted at a baud
rate of 500 kB/s.
The CAN bus system with the medium transfer
speed is called the medium speed CAN bus
(MS-CAN) and is mainly used for communication
in the comfort electronics or the multimedia system.
The data are transmitted at a baud rate of 125 kB/s.
An interface (gateway) is used to exchange data
between the HS-CAN and the MS-CAN. This
provides the connection between the three CAN
databus systems and is installed in the GEM and
in the electronic instrument cluster. The number of
modules which are connected to the three databus G1030779en

systems depends on the equipment level of the
vehicle.
In order to guarantee a high degree of error
protection, two 120 Ohm terminating resistors are
installed in the CAN. These are integrated in the
first module connected to the CAN and in the last
module connected to the CAN respectively and
are used for suppression as well as the elimination
of voltage peaks. In order to ensure correct
functioning of the data bus system, the modules
must always be connected with an integral
terminating resistor. In order to enable
communication between the modules on the
HS-CAN and the modules on the MS-CAN, one
module is connected to both data bus systems.
The connection of both data bus systems is
designated as a gateway. In this gateway, the
received data is converted to the transmission rate
required for the relevant data bus and is
transmitted. This ensures an optimal distribution
of information between both data bus systems.
