cruise control not workin on 95 bronco

[ants95bronco]

Well I tested from the left pin on the fuse and had continuity to pin 30 but not 86. So I need to service circuit 460? So what do I have to do to service it

 

[miesk5]

yo,

To service 460

There could be a problem at the splice from Fuse C to Pins 30 & 86

splice is the solid black circle between fuse and relay between ckt 36 (Y) and 460 (Y/LB)

The wiring diagrams I have do not ID this Splice Number (such as Splice S914)  nor its location.

I'll keep looking for splice location today.

 

[ants95bronco]

Well I got it figured out and fixed thanks for the help I appreciate it.

 

[miesk5]

yo,

Great!

What was the issue?

 

[ants95bronco]

A broken wire. I had to check the blk/orn wire at the DRL connector. If I had voltage it was a problem with circuit 460 yell/blu wire between the PDB and the splice and if I didnt have power it was the blk/orng wire in the same location.. t turn out that that wire was broken where it branches off to go to the PDB and was under the jumble of wires so I couldnt find it.

Is there still a recall for the cruise control?? Or any other recalls for a 95 bronco

 

[miesk5]

yo scott,

Check Safety Recalls at http://owner.ford.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Owner/Page/RecallsPage

Have VIN on-hand.

I heard Ford will still perform the recall as well as an update or 2 if recall work was not done.

Recall Problem; "...I have a 95 Bronco and back in feb.-11- 2010 my rig's master cylinder's Speed Control Deactivation Switch connection caught fire, this is what the recall "speed control system" is and the recall is still on going. Just go to www.fordowner.com to find out about recalls. After contacting Fordowner.com and filing a claim they passed it on to the claims group @ FORD to be reviewed. Once the group reviewed my claim then someone got in touch with me, I have to mail copys of my title, bill of sale, ect. and copy's of photos of the damage to her. She said that the dealer dose not have parts for vehicles 10 years and older so I have to get my local shop to replace the master cylinder and the wires that were effected by the break fluid and their labor cast, she will cut me/the shop a check and then after the work is done then the dealer will look it over to make sure the truck and the work is up-to-date. All this to fix something that at most costs $200. ***..."

Yo Ant,

Thanks!

 

[ants95bronco]

No problem.. now that I think of it can you post a pic of what the part that they recalled looked like and the part they replaced it with.. I want to be absolutely sure I have the right part

Field Service Action 05S28 Speed Control System Modification
Supplement #7 (THIS BULLETIN HAS BEEN REVISED SEVERAL TIMES, SO THE INFORMATION BELOW IS NOT CURRENT.)
Check the Ford website to see if your VIN is affected.



Applies to certain vehicles equipped with speed control:
1994-1996 Bronco
1994-2002 F-150/250 (Under 8500 GVW)
1997- 2002 Expedition
1998-2002 Navigator
2002 Blackwood

OVERVIEW :
This program involves performing an inspection procedure to determine which repairs to the speed control system must be performed; either installation of a fused jumper harness or replacement of the speed control deactivation switch. A flow chart has been developed to direct you to the proper service actions.

NOTE: Disconnecting the battery is no longer required when performing these repairs.

INSPECTION - ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES
1. Disconnect the speed control deactivation switch located on the brake master cylinder and inspect the harness connector for the presence of brake fluid. See Figure 1.
a. If no brake fluid is present, install the fused jumper harness (Labor Operation D).
b. If brake fluid is present, disconnect the speed control servo and inspect the vehicle harness connector for heat damage. See Figure 2.
c. If no heat damage is found at the speed control servo connector (even if there is presence of brake fluid in the connector), proceed to Labor Operation E.
d. If the speed control servo connector is heat damaged, call the Special Service Support Center for further instructions.

LABOR OPERATION D - APPLIES TO VEHICLES WITH NON-LEAKING SWITCHES

1.a. Connect the fused jumper harness (14A411) to the speed control deactivation switch and the vehicle harness.
b. Position the harness alongside the existing harness, located below the master cylinder, so that the fuse holder is higher than the rest of the jumper harness. This will cause any water that enters the engine compartment and gets on the jumper harness to run downhill away from the fuse holder.
c. Secure the jumper to the existing harness with tie straps, making sure the fuse holder is positioned vertically with the cap facing upwards. Wrap the tie straps underneath, then over the top of the existing harness and verify proper fuse holder orientation.
2. Release the vehicle.

LABOR OPERATION E - APPLIES TO VEHICLES WITH LEAKING SWITCHES

1. Remove the speed control deactivation switch from the brake master cylinder. CAUTION: Do not allow any foreign material to enter the master cylinder port once the deactivation switch is removed.
2. Add a few drops of MotorCraft High Performance DOT 3 Brake Fluid, PM-1, to the fluid port at the threaded end of the new deactivation switch. CAUTION: DO NOT apply fluid to the electrical connector.
3. Install the new speed control deactivation switch into the master cylinder and tighten to 18 Nm (13 lb-ft).
4. With the speed control servo disconnected, use shop air only to blow the speed control deactivation switch harness electrical connector and the servo connector dry of any trace of brake fluid. DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF SOLVENT TO CLEAN THE CONNECTORS.
5. Apply Ford Electrical Grease F8AZ-19G208-AA into each cavity of the vehicle harness connector only. It is not necessary to apply grease to the servo side of the connector.
6. Reconnect the servo connector.
7. Install the adapter jumper harness by connecting it to both the deactivation switch and the vehicle harness. Using the provided tie strap, secure the jumper harness to a nearby component such as the speed control cable or another wire harness.
8. Check the brake fluid level in the master cylinder and adjust if necessary.
9. Release the vehicle.

"service the circuit" means to check each connection and everyinch of wire. it is suspected that there is a broken wire or bad connection some where with in the circuit. Now pick your chin off the floor and put your eye balls back in your head from where they just popped out. It aint all that bad. An electrical diagram is a must, following the diaghram you will be able to find the specific wire associated with circuit 460 at different connectors,spices, and places. By checking continuity between two points you can determine the wire between these two points to be good ( no brakes) or bad ( open circuit). Doing this procedure from start to finish ( end to end) of the circuit you will find the OPEN in the circuit.
