CODE MEANINGS
Code Definitions for FORD Engines with MCU Computer System
(Microprocessor Control Unit)
Code definitions are
listed in this section
• Many of the codes
listed may not apply to
your vehicle.
• Use the definition that
applies to your engine
type: In-Line 4 or 6
cylinder (I-4, I-6) or V-6
or V-8.
• Follow vehicle service
manual procedures to
find the cause of the
code.
Remember:
1) Visual inspections are
important!
2) Problems with wiring
and connectors are
common, especially for
intermittent faults.
3) Mechanical problems
(vacuum leaks, binding
or sticking linkages,
etc.) can make a good
sensor look bad to the
computer.
11
“High Altitude” computer
adjusted for operation at
high elevations such as in
Denver, Colorado.
I-4
(All except High
Altitude): System pass.
I-4
(High Altitude only):
Altitude (ALT) circuit is
open.
I-6:
System pass.
V-6
(All except High Altitude):
System pass.
V-6
(High Altitude only):
Altitude (ALT) circuit is
open.
V-8
(All except High Altitude):
System pass.
V-8
(High Altitude only):
Altitude (ALT) circuit is
open.
12
V-8:
RPM out of
specification – Throttle
Kicker (TK) system.
25
V-8:
Knock Sensor (KS)
signal not detected during
Key On Engine Run
(KOER) Self-Test.
33
All Engines:
Key On
Engine Run (KOER) Self-
Test not initiated.
41
All Engines:
Exhaust
Gas Oxygen (EGO)
sensor: voltage signal
always “lean” (low value) –
does not switch.
42
All Engines:
Exhaust
Gas Oxygen (EGO)
sensor: voltage signal
always “rich” (high value) –
does not switch.
44
All Engines:
Exhaust
Gas Oxygen (EGO)
sensor: signal voltage
indicates “rich” (high value)
with Thermactor air
switched upstream to the
exhaust manifold (a “lean”
air/fuel condition).
45
All Engines:
Thermactor
air flow is always upstream
(going to exhaust
manifold).
46
All Engines:
Thermactor
Air System unable to
bypass air (vent to
atmosphere).
51
I-4:
Low or Mid
Temperature Switch circuit
is open when engine is hot.
I-6:
Low Temperature
Vacuum Switch circuit is
open when engine is hot.
V-6:
Hi or Hi/Low Vacuum
Switch circuit is always
open.
V-8:
Hi or Hi/Low Vacuum
Switch circuit is always
open.
52
I-4
(car): Idle Tracking
Switch (ITS) – voltage does
not change from closed to
open throttle. (Closed
throttle checked during Key
On Engine Off condition.
Open throttle checked
during Engine Running
conditions.)
I-4 (truck): Idle/Decel
Vacuum Switch circuit
always open.
I-6:
Wide Open Throttle
(WOT) Vacuum Switch
circuit is always open.
53
I-4:
Wide Open Throttle
(WOT) Vacuum Switch
circuit is always open.
I-6:
CROWD Vacuum
Switch circuit is always
open.
V-6:
Dual Temperature
Switch circuit is always
open.
V-8:
Dual Temperature
Switch circuit is always
open.
54
V-6:
Mid Temperature
Switch circuit is always
open.
V-8:
Mid Temperature
Switch circuit is always
open.
55
I-4:
Road Load Vacuum
Switch circuit is always
open.
