4.5.5 Reversing Lamps, Rear View
Camera (if equipped), Reversing
Alarm (Manual Transmission)
WARNING: Directly splicing into the
vehicle wiring in order to install auxiliary
lamps or other electrical devices may
overload the system and impact the
operation of other vehicle systems.
The reverse lamps are activated by the reverse
switch on the transmission, through connector
C169 to the Central Junction Box where the signal
is sensed. A marginal increase in current (via a
relay or buffered electrical input) is permissible
to provide power to a rear-view camera, auxiliary
reverse lighting, or an audible warning device.
4.5.6 Trailer Towing
WARNING: Installation of aftermarket
trailer tow electrical kits or directly
splicing into the vehicle wiring in order
to install trailer lamps or other electrical
devices may overload the system and
impact the operation of other vehicle
systems.
CAUTION: Do not connect the trailer
patch harness to the vehicle when the
trailer is not connected.
NOTE: The trailer tow electrical kit is available
from your Authorized Ford Dealer.
NOTE: The trailer patch harness is available from
your Authorized Ford Dealer.
NOTE: The trailer detect circuit is part of the Ford
Trailer Tow module, it can only be implemented
on vehicles with power locking and perimeter or
CAT 1 alarms.
NOTE: Not all features and outputs are supported
in all markets. Refer to your Authorized Ford
Dealer for further information.
Vehicles with a factory fitted tow bar also come
with a trailer tow module for lighting and the
activation of trailer sway control. In addition to
providing the trailer plug functionality, the trailer
towing module protects the primary electrical
circuits of the vehicle from any electrical concern
or failure that the customer's trailer may
experience.
For vehicles fitted without a tow bar as standard,
a genuine Ford accessory trailer tow electrical kit
has been developed to enable a tow bar to be
installed. The kit comprises of the trailer towing
control module, trailer plug, wiring and associated
hardware components.
Once the kit is installed, the vehicle must then be
configured using a Ford IDS diagnostic tool. This
configuration can be performed by your Ford
authorised dealer.
It is recommended to use the Ford accessory
trailer tow kit for all trailer tow electrical
connections.
When fitting low power LED (light emitting diode)
lamps that require less than 2W, the lamps may
flicker when in use. A trailer patch harness should
be used with low power draw LED lamps.
The Trailer Tow Module (TTM) can support pure
LED trailer lamps as long as each circuit exceeds
500mA, below this and the system will not detect
a trailer has been connected and shuts down all
outputs (sleep mode). It is recommended to
target a 550mA minimum load to allow for
system tolerances. This would need to be
obtained with a supplemental load resistor, if the
LED lighting circuits are below this threshold.
Each output driver could handle a current of 15A
but it is not recommended to always run to this
maximum. A higher current is interpreted as short
circuit. If a short circuit is detected the related
output will be switched off. The following table
shows the recommended output maximums per
circuit.
