been working on wiring for EATC swap and need to know if the harness is modular construction If there are any ford Techs out there please look at what I have come up with so far and give me some feed back on harness.

First
I cross referanced with 2000 expedtion harness and wonder if anyone can get part numbers for the following causal harness numbers 18b518 and 14401

second looks like truck will have to be refitted with
(1)blower speed controller to replace resister type.(c282)
(2)need new blend door actuator
(3) need sunlight sensor
(4) need in car temp sensor and maybe new radio dash surround to house it
(5) my truck already has ambient temp sensor just have to pick up sensor from harness

26-DB/LG:BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR DRIVE COOL -> C229 PIN 8

my theory is that if the harness is of modular design I can swap out the harness at one of the in line connector faces to come up with the proper harness connectors to the newly installed modules

also need to know what the sbc- and sbc + are and need a diag for the hose connections update thread sbc+ & - are PCM power train module data link

 

can anyone else read wiring daigs ? would like some help if not with wiring does anyone have shop manual for both 2000 expedtion and 2000 f150.

 

I have the shop manual on CD. What's your question?

 

turbo497,

I am trying to convert my Temperature control too. All I have is the electronic head unit and no knowledge whatsoever of how to do the conversion. I would really appreciate it if you can post a detailed "how-to" when you are finished. I know I have to get sensors and harnesses, but I don't know what to do with them, so that doesn't help. Your hands-on expertise will really help. //cpharley

 

your saying sbc. the shop manual show it two ways. spc and scp. it stands for standard corporate protocol. so scp would be the best. they are twisted pair. data bus plus and minus. it allows inter-module communication. it allow several modules to share inputs and outputs. it is one of two networks of communication that the truck has. and as far as just adding a module to that network. im not sure i never tried it. you might want to look up a few parts. and see if they are inter changeable. like pcm, rcm, gem, rap, abs, icm. there are more. but i would stick with ones that might share info with or from eatc. it should work. but im not sure. not sure if it would work with out it connected to the other modules in the network. you should be able to test this if you have access to a ford scan tool and a expy. with eatc. with just pulling a few pins and running a few of your on selftests. or just driving it and trying things. good luck on your swap. if i can help in some way. i think my email is on here. like i said not sure about this. but would like to know if it works. the most concern i see is the cost. i know the eatc modules are a pretty pennie. good luck.

 

Just bringing this thread back from the dead to see if anyone has any further information or completed this convesion. Any information would help. Thanks
