LABOR OPERATION A - APPLY ELECTRICAL GREASE
1. Reinstall the dress cover and use electrical tape to secure the cover at the same location where the original tie strap was removed. Apply Motorcraft
Electrical Grease XG-1 2 to the ABS module connector, position and connect the harness as follows:
a) Reinstall the dress cover.
b) Use ONLY Motorcraft Electrical Grease XG-12. See Figure 6.
-
With the tip of the applicator tube snipped off, position the end of the tip between the 4 large flat pins at the bottom of the ABS module
connector. Squeeze out enough grease to completely cover the 4 flat pins. See Figure 6. DO NOT spread the grease around the connector.
Applying an excess amount of grease into the connector cavity will cause a "hydro lock" condition in which the connector will not be able to
be seated fully or locked in place.
2. Reposition the harness to its original position, install the retainers to the studs to secure the harness and connect it to the ABS module.
3. Reconnect the battery negative terminal.
