5.
Verify the module connector and the -14290- harness connector are free of moisture and corrosion. Reconnect the connector per Step 7 and run the
engine for 10 minutes. Shut off engine, wait 5 minutes and remove any additional water present.
6.
Fill the anti-lock brake control module with Silicone Brake Caliper Grease and Dielectric Compound (D7AZ-19A331-A, or equivalent meeting
Ford Specification ESE-M10171-A). Be sure the level of grease does not exceed the top of the pins in the anti-lock brake control module.
7.
Connect the harness connector to the anti-lock brake control module. Retorque the connection to 4.8 +/- 0.8 N.m (42 +/- 7 lb-in).
8.
Locate the two (2) ground eyelets for the anti-lock brake control module on the -14290- harness that attaches to Ground G101. The takeout is
Circuit 570 (BK/W). If there is heat shrink on the eyelets, the service is complete. Otherwise, continue with Step 9.
9.
Remove the eyelets from G101 by removing the fastener attaching the takeout to G101. Retain the fastener.
10.
Remove the black adhesive tape around the eyelets. Discard the tape.
11.
Apply solder to the wire crimps of the ground eyelets. Make sure no copper wire strands are exposed.
12.
Hold the eyelets so the wire points toward the rear of the vehicle (toward 9 o'clock position) and reattach both eyelets using the fastener removed
in Step 9. If the hood switch is present, position as far toward 9 o'clock position as possible without touching the switch bracket. Reattach both
eyelets using the fastener removed in Step 9. Torque this connection to 9.0 +/- 1.4 N.m (80 +/- 12 lb-in). The wire must still be pointing toward the
rear of the vehicle. Apply Silicone Gasket And Sealant (F7AZ-19554-EA, or equivalent meeting Ford Specification WSE-M4G323-A4) to the
wire crimp area of eyelets with the B/W wire
