SHOP MANUAL REVISION - 5.0L - SELF TEST - ACCESSORY DRIVE

FORD 1985 MUSTANG

LINCOLN-MERCURY 1985 CAPRI

The cancellation of two-speed accessory drive has resulted in the possibility of false self-test codes.

The following codes are not valid and should be ignored.


Key On Engine Off Key Off Engine Running
(KOEO) (KOER)
HBV-22 HBV-22
ACHSS-24 ACHSS-24
Manual Clutch - 26 Grd. Sensor - 25
Manual Clutch - 26 TSAD - 38

Attached are revisions that should be incorporated in the 1985 Car Emission Diagnosis Shop Manual.
