GEM's and RAP's
Hate to beat a dead horse but..... I've looked under my dash for these and have not been able to locate them. Is anyone aware of any pictures, or copies of service/tech manuals, which I may have a look at? As the warm weather approaches I have 3 modifications planned. Auto locks, keypad and climate control, all of which I believe require the GEM and RAP? TIA, Dennis

as for the rap it is a 3 1/2 inch square box located all the way up on the left side of the brake pedal on the firewall. you will see 2 connectors in it and on the 98 it is mostlikey installed with the numbers facing the firewall so the code can't be seen. It is very dificult to see without a flashlight.
I would think that all trucks have a gem because all other moudles plug into it radio, turn singals, power windows, etc as far as the expedition climate control- I'm still working on a splice schedule for the module to interface to the factory computer system. 90 percent of the wiring does not change a still have to trace back two connectors for a splice schedule |
Thanx Turbo, I've been looking above the parking brake! Will head to parking garage now to have another look. Do you know if this can be added if not a factory installed equipment?

Damn, No luck. My guess is the truck is not equipped with the RAP. I would tend to think a Lariat would be. Is the Lariat equal to Eddie Bower or LS in terms of standard equipment? I need to find a boneyard with some F150's in it. My local one does'nt have any. A testament perhaps?

One way to tell if you have a RAP is the theft light will light when you lock the driver door with the power door lock.
|
do you have the fat ford key and the keychain remote entry locks? If you do you have a rap. the antenna for the remoter entry pad is in the rap.
|
No I don't have the fat key and remote locks. I did however install a remote lock and starter system in my truck.
|
well, you don't have a rap. you can check for the harness connectors under the dash-see if there tied off some where
|
Anybody have a picture of the harness and/or RAP or possibly a copy of it from a service manual? I use to have access to the service manuals at the local library but it is currently being remodeled and all the books were put in storage. I don't think they are readily available.
