TESTINGRefer to Wiring Diagram Manual

Form 7795P-66 for schematics andlocations of wiring harnesses.

HORN TESTThe only test necessary on the

horn is for current draw.

Current Draw TestConnect a voltmeter and ammeter

to the horn and to a voltage supplyas shown in Fig. 1. The normal cur-rent draw for the horns at 12 volts is3.5-5.5 amperes.

switch or a beam selector switch isdefective:

Turn on the headlights, and oper-ate the beam selector switch. If noneof the headlights turn on when thebeam selector switch is operated, yetthe instrument panel lights operate,the headlight switch or the red-yel-low stripe wire from the headlightswitch to the beam control switch isprobably defective. Substitute aknown good switch for the suspectedswitch to determine whether theswitch or the wiring is at fault.

If the headlights operate only withthe beam selector switch in one posi-tion, the selector switch or the wir-ing from the switch to the headlightis defective. Substitute a known goodselector switch for the suspectedswitch to determine whether theswitch or the wiring is at fault.

CONSTANT VOLTAGEREGULATOR TEST

Turn the ignition switch on,check for voltage at the gauge feedwire (black with green stripe) at oneof the gauges. The voltage shouldoscillate between zero and about 10volts. If it does not, the constantvoltage regulator is defective, or

there is a short to ground betweenthe voltage regulator and the gauges.

If a gauge unit is inaccurate ordoes not indicate, replace it with anew unit. If the gauge unit still iserratic in its operation, the sendingunit or wiring to the sending unit isfaulty.

If both the fuel gauge and thetemperature gauge indicate improp-erly and in the same direction, theconstant voltage regulator could bedefective, as it supplies both gauges.

FUEL GAUGE AND FUELLEVEL SENDING UNIT TEST

Disconnect the wire from the fuellevel sending unit and connect it toa known good sending unit. Using ajumper for a ground, connect it tothe sending unit mounting plate andcar frame. Raise the float arm tothe upper stop, the instrument panelgauge should read full. Lower thefloat arm to the bottom stop, thegauge should read empty.

If the gauge reads properly, thesending unit in the gas tank is defec-tive.

If the gauge unit still indicates im-properly or is erratic in its operation,the gauge unit or the wiring to the

15-4 GROUP 15 LIGHTING SYSTEM, HORNS AND INSTRUMENTS

tion terminal and the other to theregulator base. The test light willcome on if the circuit is in properworking order. If the 15 ohm resis-tor or circuit is open, the indicatorlight will operate at full brightnessand the test light will be out.

AMMETER TEST-COMET,FALCON, MUSTANG

To test the ammeter, turn theheadlights on with the enginestopped. The meter pointer shouldmove toward the D or dischargescale. If no movement of the needleis observed, check the rear of themeter housing to see if the batteryto circuit breaker wire connectionsare loose. If the connections aretight, and the meter does not indi-cate a discharge, the meter is inop-erative. If the meter pointer movestoward the C or charge scale whenthe headlights are turned ON, thewire connections at the meter are re-versed. When the headlights areturned on, the battery is reversed, orthe wire passes through the loop inthe wrong direction. Feed the wirethrough in the opposite direction tocorrect this condition, after checkingfirst to make sure that the battery isnot reversed.

SPEEDOMETER TESTSTo test the odometer accuracy,

drive the car over a measured mile.Speedometer accuracy can bechecked by comparing the speedom-eter in question against one knownto be accurate, while two cars aremoving at the same speed, or bytiming the car on a measured mile.The Ford Car Master Parts Cata-log or the Lincoln-Mercury Partsand Accessories Catalog show theproper combination of gears to usefor various rear axle and tire sizecombinations.

gauge unit is faulty. Repair the wireor replace the gauge unit.

TEMPERATURE GAUGE TESTStart the engine and allow it to

run at 1200 rpm for 30 minutes.Place a thermometer in the coolantat the radiator filler cap. The tem-perature should read a minimum of180oP., and the gauge in the instru-ment panel should indicate withinthe normal band.

If the gauge does not indicate,short the temperature sender unitterminal wire to ground (ignitionswitch on). Do not leave the senderwire grounded longer than necessaryto make the test, as the gauge maybe damaged. If the gauge now indi-cates, the sender unit is defective ornot properly sealed to the engine. Besure to use an electrically conductivesealer C3AZ-19554-B. If the gaugedoes not indicate, the gauge, thewires leading to the gauge, or theconstant voltage regulator are atfault.

OIL PRESSURE INDICATORLIGHT TEST

To test the indicator light, turn onthe ignition switch. Do not start theengine. The light should come on.Start the engine. The light should goout, indicating that the oil pressurehas built up a safe value.

To test the oil pressure switch onthe engine, turn the ignition switchon, engine not running, the indicatorlight should come on. If the indica-tor light does not come on, short theterminal of the oil pressure switchunit to ground. If the light nowcomes on, the oil pressure switch isdefective or not properly sealed tothe engine. Be sure to use electrical-ly conductive sealer C3AZ-19554-B.If the light still does not come on,the bulb is burned out or the wiresfrom the bulb to the ignition switch

a?d oil pressure switch are defective.

OIL PRESSURE INDICATORGAUGE TEST-COMET

Remove the oil pressure senderunit and temporarily attach an oilpressure gauge in its place. Operatethe engine to determine the oil pres-sure. If the oil pressure is normal,the gauge should indicate within thenormal band.

If the gauge did not indicate, mo-mentarily short the oil pressuresender wire to ground. Do not leavethe sender wire grounded longerthan necessary to make the test, asthe gauge may be damaged. If thegauge now indicates, the sender unitis defective or not properly sealed tothe engine. Be sure to use electri-cally conductive sealer C3AZ-19554-B. If the gauge does not in-dicate, the gauge, the wires leadingto the gauge or the constant voltageregulator are at fault.

CHARGE INDICATOR LIGHTTEST

To test the charge indicator light,turn the ignition switch on with theengine stopped. The light shouldcome on. If it does not, the bulb isburned out, or the wiring to the lightis defective.

An open resistor wire in the Fordalternator charging system wiringharness will usually cause the chargeindicator light to stay on until theengine speed is increased to severalthousand rpm. This effect will be no-ticed each time the engine is started.In some cases the light will not goout at all.

The charge indicator light may betested with the use of a test lightcontaining a trade number 67 or1155 bulb.

Disconnect the regulator plugfrom the regulator. Turn the ignitionswitch to ACC position. Touch onetest probe from test light to the igni-

HEADLIGHT SWITCHA combination headlight switch

and two circuit breakers is used (Fig.1). The headlight circuit is protectedby an 18 ampere circuit breakerfor the Comet and Fairlane, a 12ampere circuit breaker for the Fal-con and the Mustang. The tail,parking, license plate light and horncircuits are protected by a 15 am-pere circuit breaker.

K1451-A

MECHANICAL STOP LIGHTSWITCH

The mechanical stoplight switchdiffers from the hydraulic switch for-merly used. The switch assembly isinstalled on the pin of the brake ped-al arm so that it straddles the mastercylinder push rod. The switch assem-bly is a slip fit on the pedal arm pinand thus the switch assembly moveswith the pedal arm whenever thebra~e pedal is depressed.

The brake pedal arm pin has a de-signed-in clearance with the eye ofthe master cylinder push rod (Fig.3). Because of this clearance, when-ever the brake pedal is pushed for-ward, the stop light switch contacts,moving with the pedal arm, are ac-tually pushed against the end of themaster cylinder push rod, through theswitch actuating pin. It is this move-ment of the switch with respect tothe actuating pin and master cylin-der push rod that closes the switchcontacts completing the circuit to thestoplights.

When the brake pedal is released,the spring in the stop light switch re-turns the actuating pin to its normalposition and the circuit to the stoplights opens.

All of the instruments are electri-cally operated except the speedome-ter. Brightness of the instrument pan-el lights is controlled by a rheostaton the lighting switch.

GAUGESThe instrument cluster for the Fal-

con, Fairlane and Mustang includesa fuel gauge, temperature gauge,charge indicator light, oil pressureindicator light, speedometer, high-beam indicator light, and a left andright-hand turn signal indicator light.

The instrument cluster for the

Comet includes the same componentsexcept that an oil pressure indicatorgauge and a charge indicator gaugeare used instead of indicator lights.There are also separate left-and-right-hand turn signal indicatorlights in the instrument panel.

CONSTANT VOLTAGEREGULATOR

The constant voltage regulator(Fig. 1) used with the fuel, tempera-ture, and oil gauges maintains anaverage value of 5.0 volts at thegauge terminals.

The regulator operates by meansof a bimetallic arm and a heatingcoil. When the ignition switch isturned on, the heating coil (Fig. 1)

TEMPERATURE SENDING UNIT

~rlfcheats the bimetallic arm causing itto bend and break the contacts, dis-connecting the voltage supply fromthe heating coil. The bimetallic armthen cools and brings the contactstogether again. The making andbreaking of the contacts, causes apulsating voltage, with an effectiveaverage value of 5.0 volts to be sup-plied to the gauges. Although thesepulsations are quite rapid, there isin each gauge a bimetallic arm whichchanges temperature quite slowly,and this assures steady average read-ings.

As the pulsating voltage wouldnormally cause radio interference, aradio interference suppression chokeis connected in series with the con-stant voltage regulator supply wire.

FUEL GAUGEThe fuel gauge consists of a send-

ing unit, located on the gas tank,and a remote register unit (fuelgauge) mounted in the instrumentcluster. The remote register unitpointer is controlled by a bimetallicarm and heating coil. The sendingunit is a rheostat that varies its re-sistance depending on the amount offuel in the tank. The rheostat is op-erated by a float control. As the fuellevel rises or falls the float controlarm moved by the float, varies theresistance.

the ignition switch is first turned on,and it should go out when the enginecomes up to speed. The light is con-nected between the oil pressureswitch unit mounted on the engine atthe left rear on the six, above the oilfilter on the V -8 (Fig. 2), and the coilterminal of the ignition switch.

OIL PRESSURE INDICATORGAUGE-COMET

The meter-type oil pressure gaugeconsists of a sending unit on the en-gine above the oil filter on the V-8(Fig. 3), at the left rear on the six,and a remote register unit in the in-strument cluster.

The sending unit operates by vary-ing resistance according to actualoil pressure against it, which in turnoperates the oil pressure gauge.

TURN INDICATORThe turn indicator uses the dual

filament parking lights as indicatorlights.

The turn indicator flasher is lo-cated in the back of the instrumentpanel, On the steering column brace.

On the Mustang the flasher ismounted on the front side of the airduct.

EMERGENCY WARNINGFLASHER

The emergency flasher warningsystem is controlled by a combinationswitch and flasher assembly. All turnsignal lights can be made to flashat the same time by closing theswitch of the switch-flasher assembly.

SPEEDOMETERThe speedometer is connected to

the output shaft of the transmissionby means of a flexible shaft, and adrive gear located inside the trans-mission. The flexible shaft drives thespeedometer which registers speed inmiles per hour and also drives anodometer which records distancetraveled in miles and tenths of amile.

OIL PRESSURE SWITCH- K 1627-A

FIG. 3-Temperature and OilPressure Sender-Fair lane 6

CHARGE INDICATORGAUGE-COMET

The charge indicator gauge is anammeter, which indicates whetherthe ,battery is being charged or dis-charged. The ammeter is non-adjust-able and should be replaced if provedto be defective.

TEMPERATURE GAUGEThe temperature gauge consists of

a sending unit mounted in the cylin-der head at the top front on theV-8 (Fig. 2 or 3), left rear on thesix, and a remote register unit, (tem-perature gauge) mounted in the in-strument cluster.

Changes of engine temperaturevary the resistance of the sendingunit which in turn operates the tem-

perature gauge.

CHARGE INDICATORLIGHT-EXCEPT COMET

A red alternator charge indicatorlight is used. This light flashes on ifthe battery is discharging and the al-ternator is not supplying current.

When the ignition switch is closed,battery current flows through thecharge indicator light and 15-ohmparallel resistor, and through the reg-ulator voltage limiter contacts to thefield.

When the alternator builds upenough voltage to close the field re-lay contacts, full voltage is appliedto the field, and the charge indicatorlight goes out.

WINDSHIELD WIPER-COMETThe Comet wiper provides high

speed (65 to 75 cycles per minute)constant wiping action, and also in-termittent low speed (5-30 cycles perminute), intermittent wiping action.This low speed operation is basednot on a low speed wiping stroke buton an adjustable dwell period in thepark position.

The intermittent wiper is operatedthrough the use of a dual knob. Theouter or large knob, when in the cen-

ously, the rotational movement ofthe valve cam applies manifold vac-uum to the upper chamber of thegovernor, thus beginning a new cycle.

If the engine is subjected to suddenacceleration as in passing, the avail-able manifold vacuum will be great-ly reduced. When the vacuum lossbecomes sufficient to allow the elec-trical switch diaphragm spring toovercome the vacuum, the switchwill be moved to the closed positionproviding continuous wiper opera-tion. This will continue until the en-gine has returned to an operatingcondition that will provide normalmanifold vacuum. The wipers willthen return to whatever wiper cycledwell had been previously selected.

In the same manner as above, un-der engine acceleration, if any lossof vacuum or pressure in the inter-mittent control system occurs due toa mechanical failure or malfunction,the wipers will automatically shift tocontinuous operation, thereby render-ing the system fail safe (Sketch III,Fig. 4).

ward compressing the diaphragmspring and moving the switch into thepark position. The wiper blades thenmove to the park position and re-main there. (Sketch II, Fig. 4).

Rotation of the governor valvecam that applied vacuum to the gov-ernor switch also opened the uppergovernor chamber to atmosphere.The compressed diaphragm springapplies downward pressure to the dia-phragm creating super atmosphere inthe lower chamber. This is allowedto bleed off thru a variable orificein the control selector. The size ofthis orifice is determined by the posi-tion of the intermittent selector (in-ner knob) and establishes the lengthof wiper cycle dwell (Sketch II, Fig.4).

ter position, turns the system off.When turned fully clockwise, thewiper is in the constant high speedsetting. When turned fully counter-clockwise, the wiper goes on the in-termittent lower speed range. Theintermittent wiper action is controlledby the inner, or small knob.

The intermittent wiper control isan electro-pneumatic system, a gov-ernor located in the engine compart-ment, that allows selection of eithervarying dwell between wipe cycles orcontinuous wiper action thru applica-tion of variable opposing vacuum andpressure within the system.

With the control selector in the in-strument panel turned to intermittentwiper control, engine manifold vacu-um is applied to the upper chamberof the governor (Sketch I, Fig. 4).Atmospheric pressure in the lowerchamber then moves the diaphragmupward. Simultaneous rotation of thegovernor valve cam thru the spiralaction of the follower applies mani-fold vacuum to the diaphragm of thenormally closed electrical switch. Theswitch diaphragm is moved down-

As the diaphragm moves down-ward, the governor valve cam is ro-tated thru the spiral action of thecam follower, opening the lowerchamber of the electrical switch dia-phragm to atmosphere. The com-pressed diaphragm spring moves theswitch into the closed position, actu-ating the wiper motor. Simultane-

3. Install the output gear on theoutput shaft. Make sure that the gearis bottomed on the shaft.

4. Install the output shaft and gearassembly into the housing with thegear teeth facing the motor. Installone spacer washer to the outside endof the output shaft and assemble thewiper arm lever to the output shaft,with the linkage studs facing awayfrom and above the shaft. Secure thelever with a lock washer and nut.

5. Place the bearing cam on thecrankpin with the small diameterportion of the cam facing outward.

6. Install the arm and link assem-bly to the bearing cam. As the armis placed on the shaft, the gears mustbe meshed and the link which is riv-eted to the arm must be installed tothe output shaft at the same time.Proper gear indexing is obtainedwhen the bottom tooth of the armand gear segment will be in meshwith the bottom valley of the outputshaft gear.

7. Install the output shaft spacerwasher and retainer. Check the endplay of the output shaft (0.005-0.010inch). Remove or install spacerwashers under the shaft retainer toadjust the end play.

8. Install the cam return springassembly.

9. Install the bearing spacer andretainer. If the retainer cannot be in-stalled, one or more coils of thespring clutch are probably out ofplace. If the bearing has excessiveend play on the crankpin, the pro-jection of the bearing may ride outof the semi-circular slot in the endplate. Add spacer washers under theretainer if necessary.

GOVERNOR AND CONTROLSELECTOR SWITCH-COMET

The electro-pneumatic governorand the control selector switch areserviced as assemblies only. Shouldany internal component become de-fective the complete assembly mustbe replaced.

Although the vacuum hoses are anintegral part of the wiring harnessassembly, individual hoses may be re-placed if required.

SPEEDOMETER DIAGNOSTICPROCEDURES

Speedometer system complaints aregenerally the result of a visible oraudible defect in the system. It is im-perative that the specific defect bedetermined prior to attempting anyphysical repairs to preclude unnec-essarily disassembling system compo-nents. The following suggestions areintended to aid in quick and accurate

system problem diagnosis.

SPEEDOMETER REPAIRPROCEDURESLOOSE CABLE ATTACHINGNUTS

1. Cable nuts should be tightenedwith pliers to approximately 18 to 25in-lbs.

2. Cable nuts should start and runup freely by hand for at least threeto four turns.

3. A loose cable nut can cause abent cable core. Tightening will notalways correct the problem.

DEFECtIVE SPEEDOMETERHEAD

Before removing a speedometerhead, disconnect the cable at thehead and insert a short section of ca-ble core in the head. Rotate the sec-tion of core to check for any drag-ging or noise. The speedometer shaftshould turn freely and evenly.

DEFECTIVE CABLE COREAND HOUSING

1. To check for a kinked cablecore remove and wipe dry. Lay thecore out straight on a flat surfaceand roll it back and forth. Any kinksor damage will be seen. Then takean end in each hand, allowing coreto hang in approximately a 9-inchloop. Rotate both ends to be surecore turns evenly.

2. Routing of the cable housing isparticularly important where the ca-ble leaves the speedometer head. Theoptimum routing would provide thatthe cable and housing take virtuallyno change of direction for at leasta length of 8 inches from the speed-ometer head.

3. When installing a new cableand housing it is necessary that thenew assembly be guided and routedproperly to eliminate any kinks.

4. Proper lubrication of the cablecore is accomplished by a light ap-plication of B5A-19581-A lubricantafter the cable has been wiped clean.A light film is all that is required.

DEFECTIVE DRIVE ANDDRIVEN GEARS

1. A score nicked or gouged driv-en gear is usually indicative of a de-fective drive gear on those vehiclesthat have the drive gear integralwith the transmission output shaft.The output shaft should be carefullyinspected for imperfections and re-placed if necessary.

2. A driven gear with two orthree adjoining teeth badly scored is

indicative of improper assembly pro-cedure. The gear should be insertedin the transmission while simultane-ously turning the drive shaft. Thiswill insure initial gear engagementand prevent gear damage. Forceshould never be used.

3. Whenever a drive gear is re-placed, a new driven gear should al-so be installed, regardless of its ap-parent condition.

VISmLE DEFECTS
