i can not find any information on the correct ignition module for my bronco. it has only five wires and the only ones that have the same number of wires always switch the red and white wire. i have no way to replace the one that is in the bronco unless i can get a part number or some kind of info who do i need to see to get out of this mess. thanks. don
My '89 Bronco II is making noise in 5th on the Mitsubishi 5 speed. Seems Ok in 1-4. Needs to be repaired. Question: Is it tough to put the Mazda 5 speed in place of the Mitsubishi? What needs to be changed other than the tranny? This vehicle has been so excellent for so long, there is no chance I'll not fix it.
I recently bought a 1988 with 89,000 miles (confirmed by car fax) drove it from San Francisco to Salt Lake City. It ran perfectly until I tried to go up in one of the canyons. The engine quit. Had it towed to a Ford dealership. They replaced the in tank fuel pump. It now runs but when I drive it up a steep canyon road it looses power and almost comes to a stop. If I apply full throttle I get power back again. Also, if I come to a complete stop and wait the engine runs very ruff then as though a switch is thrown it runs perfectly for a time. Once I start driving up again the whole process starts again. The rough engine and sudden on occurs even going down the mountain. I took it back to Ford they replaced a couple of electronic engine components to the tune of $800 and when test driven up the hill it did the same rough on and off. Salt Lake is about 4600 feet and the canyon road climbs to over 7000 rather quickly. Need help!!!! Any suggestions please!! Thanks Steve
I would first find out what type of fuel pump was installed in the fuel tank. Some vehicles cannot operate appropriately with "stock" parts, Bronco is one of them in regards to fuel pumps, especially if you live in a mountainous region. I would also have the fuel injection system cleaned, or carburator if still equipped. Steep inclines like going from 4600 - 7000 feet will obviously make the system operate harder. Also have a diagnostic done to see if your EGR valve is in need of replacement. This is a fuel recirc system that may explain the rough running but not the loss of power going up and down hills, that is probably your type of fuel pump.
Thanks for your comments. Do you have any idea what fuel pump I should put in as you know this is the in tank low pressure pump. I also understand there is a low pressure regulator in conjunction to the pump. Could that be an issue?
i currently just baught a bronco 2 and for some reason its not running right. it starts right up and when u go some where it has no power and it tops at 10 to 15 mph so please help me
YO James! Some info for you; The air bag indicator will flash the appropriate diagnostic trouble code to indicate the suspect circuit. If the indicator is malfunctioning the tone will be heard. * Diagnostic trouble codes are prioritized numerically so if two or more different faults occur at the same time, the fault having the highest priority will be displayed first. After that fault has been corrected, the next highest priority fault will be displayed.

My 95 xlt had the same problem. Because the speedo controls the tranny's shift points when it jumps around it tells the tranny to change gears. Most likely a bad speedo. Search ebay for gauge pods and replace you speedo. It only takes basic skills and all in all mine cost around $65 total. I also replaced the speed sensor thinking it was that but no change there. Good luck
Hi, I just bought my first Bronco and I love it. So far so good. Don't think I'll ever buy another brand! I have one slight possible problem.

-- from our Owner's Guide; "The E4OD and 4R70W transmissions are electronically controlled four speed automatic transmissions with overdrive. Transmission operation is controlled by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The PCM will automatically adjust transmission operation to make up for varying conditions. Several sensors located on the engine and transmission such as Throttle Position, Engine Speed, Vehicle Speed and Transmission Temperature are used by the PCM to shift the transmission into a higher or lower gear when required for the best performance and fuel economy. For example, you may notice that the transmission will upshift to a higher gear more quickly when the vehicle is first driven and has not reached normal operating temperature.The PCM also controls the transmission’s Torque Converter Clutch to further raise vehicle performance and fuel economy. The Torque Converter Clutch will engage when the transmission operating temperature and other conditions determined by the PCM have been met. Engagement of the clutch may be noted as a decrease in engine speed after an upshift has completed or when the driver has depressed the throttle while driving at a steady road speed. To help in troubleshooting, the PCM continually performs self-tests on the electronic control system and if any faults are detected, will store them in memory. The Transmission Control Indicator Light (TCIL), which is located on the gearshift lever, may flash steadily if a malfunction has been detected..."
Thank's for the useful tips. It sounds like the PCM is adjusting accordingly. Could be the tranny temp., after driving 2hrs. non-stop on the highway ,to the slow, stop and go in the city.

i have a 87 full size Ford Bronco w/ the EFI 5.0 & O/D A/T. a few months ago i replaced the entire fuel system, tank, both pumps, filter, lines, & ERG system (rust problem). a few weeks ago the acuator rod in the column broke & since i couldn't find a new column (can't buy an acuator rod seperate) i installed an aftermarket ignition switch in dash. 2 weeks after i did the switch, the Bronco stalled at a light, i was idling & now the fuel pumps won't run. I've changed the ECM computer, the fuel pump relay (which if i jump the hot terminal to the out going, the pumps run) and all related fuses with no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what may be keeping the fuel pumps from running?
hey, i have a 1994 thunderbird with the same problem the fuel pump is not running. changed the pump and checked the fuses. dont know where the pump relay is under the hood so i cant change that. anyone know where it is.

When the ignition switch is ON, it turns the EEC power relay ON. The EEC power relay provides power to the powertrain control module (PCM) and the control side of the fuel pump relay. Power for the fuel pump(s) is supplied through a fuse link or high current fuse attached to the starter solenoid (battery side). From the fuse link or high current fuse, current flows through the fuel pump relay and inertia switch to the fuel pump(s). The fuel pump relay is controlled by the PCM.
When the ignition switch is turned ON, the fuel pump(s) will operate. If the ignition switch is not turned to the START position the PCM will shut the fuel pump(s) OFF after 1 second. The PCM will operate the fuel pump(s) operate the fuel pump(s) when the ignition switch is turn to START position to provide fuel while cranking.
After the engine starts, the PCM will continue to operate the fuel pump(s) unless the engine stops, drops below 120 rpm or the inertia switch is tripped.

My 95 Bronco has a 5.0 302 engine in it. The bearings went bad so i bought a new long block. The new motor has hydralic lifters and cam my old motor has roller lifters and cam. Does that make any difference. The problem i am having with the new motor is 5 & 7 there is no compretion ? please and thank you for your help :confuse:
I decided to replace the abs sensor($20) on the differential(guy at ford dealer said they go bad quite often) and it did not help.I had my doubts, but gave it a try.The code I got was a 17(possible relay, fuse, intermittent valve failures, opens or shorts to ground,high resistance valves etc) when I did the test prior.I tried swapping the horn relay with the ABS relay in the Distribution box which had the same numbers on them and that did not make the lite go out.I only started the vehicle in the garage which I felt should be enough to make the lite go out if the sensor or relay was the culprit.Are there any resistance readings on the wires comeing from the rear sensor that I should look for.One reads 5k and the other has very high res.Would like to fix the problem if possible.thanks
vehicle starts and runs but will start to stall out from a stop. will often stall out when slowing down. did all summer. this winter i noted that the the battery gauge would start to go down first and then it would quit.the needle sits on the M but when it starts the stall outs it sits on the R. it did oscillate a couple of time at night and the gauge went up and down as the lights brightened and dimmed. one mechanic stated he thought it was the trottle sensor. but there has been a few times where after it has done the stop and i restart that it just cranked and cranked and cranked, with no restart, but as soon as i turn it completely off and hit the key it starts back up.
yo, 17 Reference Voltage/Intermittent Valve Fault Possible Source(s): · 30 amp fuse open. · Intermittent connections to battery, main relay or ground. @ driver's side radiator support and; · Main relay coil or contacts open. MIESK5 note; check relay contacts FOR corrosion pull relay again & ck ; also see Fig. 12 and on (in below LINK) for pin point tests of CODE 17 -· Open or short to ground in Circuit 532 (O/Y). · Open or short to ground in Circuit 599 (PK/LG). · Open or short to ground in Circuit 601 (LG/PK).MIESK5 note; FROM FUSE PANEL 30 amp fuse · Short to ground through anti-lock hydraulic control unit. · Intermittent valve failures. · High resistance valves.
So, ck that Relay's contacts (not the relay's contacts, but the connector's contacts.)
Take it to get a free batty, alternator, etc check at AutoZone, Also Adv Auto may do it free too; possible battery, grounds, connectors, etc. Did you do the Self TEst for Codes? if not, get it done free at the AZ and post results here.
Ck with folks you bought the long Block from to see if the cam is for rollers.
Most likely; Could be just a head gasket which has blown between those two cylinders, sticky valve(s) etc. or worse; Another possibility is that the camshaft is broken in an area that operates valves for two adjacent cylinders. not likely..

The FP relay is in da IRCM (formerly called da CCRM) and it is Mounted forward of the airbox The CCRM is not usually serviceable. But if you want to take a shot at it see Joe's info in Link below

CCRM = Constant Control Relay Module , IRCM = Integrated Relay Control Module;. This relay contols the fan, fuel pump and A/C clutch if i'm not mistaken.
the fuel pump relay is tied into the IRCM on 94-95s; Since 1986, Ford has used, on several models, an Integrated Relay Control Module (IRCM) to operate the fuel pump, engine cooling fan and compressor clutch. During the early 1990’s, the
name was changed to Constant Control Relay Module (CCRM). The module has a 24-pin connector .

Relay? Do you mean the Test Connector?
4WABS System Component Locations, DTCs & Self Test & Connector Diagram; 93-96; The 4WABS is located at the left-hand side (driver's side) of the engine compartment and marked ANTI-LOCK TEST - in my 96 it is near the hood hinge

17 Reference Voltage/Intermittent Valve Fault
Possible Source(s):
· 30 amp fuse open.
· Intermittent connections to battery, main relay or ground. @ driver's side radiator support and;
· Main relay coil or contacts open. MIESK5 note; check relay contacts FOR corrosion pull relay again & ck ;
also see Fig. 12 and on (in below LINK) for pin point tests of CODE 17 -· Open or short to ground in Circuit 532 (O/Y). · Open or short to ground in Circuit 599 (PK/LG).
· Open or short to ground in Circuit 601 (LG/PK).MIESK5 note; FROM FUSE PANEL 30 amp fuse
· Short to ground through anti-lock hydraulic control unit.
· Intermittent valve failures.
· High resistance valves.
So, ck that Relay's contacts (not the relay's contacts, but the connector's contacts.)
Here is Chilton's wiring diagram via autozone; you will see all above ckts and color codes in Fig. 8: 4-wheel ABS testing-1993-96 Bronco models

Also, R values for all in Fig. 10:
Read thru all of that Chilton stuff; can save you $ btw, the rear ABS sensor on the diff would give Code 57.

Take it to get a free batty, alternator, etc check at AutoZone, Also Adv Auto may do it free too;
possible battery, grounds, connectors, etc.
Did you do the Self TEst for Codes? if not, get it done free at the AZ and post results here.

Most likely; Could be just a head gasket which has blown between those two cylinders, sticky valve(s) etc.
or worse; Another possibility is that the camshaft is broken in an area that operates valves for two adjacent cylinders. not likely..

A leakdown will determine whats going on in those cylinders,look inside the radiator for any "brown foam" to see if the head gasket is blown.Aside from that the leakdown will tell you all thats going on

electrics all check on nov. 1 as i got a new battery that day. have not tried the check the codes
heading to AZ tomorrow morning.
gl!
Doubt that it is the brake pedal, Look @ that AutoZone Link I posted and go thru the pin point tests for that Code. In reply mode here, I can't view what I posted.
GL!
had a cracked erg tube
valve system was shot
and the sensor..
$339 in parts and its running right.
Any help would be appreciated
Did the shop say anything about the TFI Module? Sometimes a new TFI can be a bad unit.
