Has anyone done this on an Excursion? The Superduty guys like this mod for extended idle periods.

Aug,
After alot of reseach I've successfully completed the High Idle Mod on my 2005 6.0 Excursion.
You can view the post over at FTE heres' the link just cut and paste in your browser
http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=394969&page=2&pp=15
JUST BECAUSE THIS MOD WORKED FOR ME DOESN'T MEAN IT WILL WORK FOR YOU.
I CAN'T BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IF YOU SAY OOPS I JUST FRIED MY PCM.(' ');
('');
I MYSELF WAS NERVOUS WHEN I ENERGIZED THE SWITCH
But the satisfaction of success was worth it.javascript:emoticon(' ');
Good luck
I've copied the meat of my posts and pasted them below.
Please read up on the MOD (SEIC Stationary Elevated Idle Control) at every site you can, FTE and TheDieselStop.com and if you can find the link to the body builders guide on a FORD Corp web site that would also be helpfull.
I ordered the schematics for the 2005 Excursion and according to the manual none of the wires for the SEIC are used.
I pulled the left side (closest to the firewall) connector from the PCM and sure enough those wires aren't even pinned out of the connector
(pin #'s 5.7.8,12,13,15,16,18,21,24,34,35,38,39,40)
From all the reseach I've done I belive pin # 12 is the same as the solid Orange one would apply switched 12 volts to that would initiate the fast idle sequence.
I'm not an electrical engineer so I hope someone can answer a few questions.
1) would the PCM already be programed to perform the SEIC function?
2) would the other upfitter wires need to be hooked up?
One would assume not since for the quick SEIC install you only apply switched 12 volts to the solid orange wire......
Does anyone have the wireing diagrams for the 2005 F series Super Duty Diesel?
If so could you look and see how many of the above mentioned pins are used coming off of the PCM center connector?
I asked the dealers service department when the Ex was in for service and they didn't have a clue.
PART TWO SUCCESS
If you've been following the thread..... I hooked it up tonight and IT WORKS.
All you late model Excusion owners can have SEIC (Stationary Elevated Idle Control) and it will only cost you $5.95 and about two hours of your time
(one hour schmoozing your local dealer technician) Here's a brief description.
I highly reccomend if you're not up on the SEIC mod that you shoud do a search and check the tech sections so that you are up to speed with the modification.
Just because this works on my 2005 Excursion 6.0 PSD I have no idea if it will work on yours.
I cannot be held responsable for any oops I just fried what ever.
1)Visit your local dealer with a dozen Dunkin dounuts, and ask the service manager if they have any warrantied PCM hanesses they could cannabilize for you.
(you need one female terminal with wire 2 feet long, any color)
2)Go ahead and install your toggle or I prefer the round rocker switch. The switch will need to be connected to an ignition hot source. Connect the other side of the switch to one of the customer access firewall pass through wires.
3) Remove the drivers side battery cables, battery shield and battery.
4) This will give you access to the PCM. Next you need to remove one of the three PCM connectors. the one you want is the one closest to the fire wall ( connector #C1381a ) To remove the connector push the grey lever on the top of the connector towards the passenger side of the vehical.
5) Once you have the connector removed disassemble the black shroud from the back of the connector to do this gently release the four barbed tabs with a scratch pick and remove the cover.
6) Load a 9/64 bit in your drill, hold the connector horizonally in your left hand, locate the empty socket on the right hand vertical row of sockets, second from the top this is socket # 12. GENTLY drill the socket out ( the back of my connector had some plastic "flash" in it preventing the socket from fitting into the connector.
7) Get out your trusty Hot Melt Glue Gun and pre heat it.
 Insert the socket salvaged from you local dealer into the back of the connector, oriented the same as the other sockets in that vertical row.
Hot melt glue the socket in place from the back side (the side with the wire)
9) Once the glue dries reinstall the black shroud to the connector, tie wrap your new wire to that connectors bundle and route it towards the firewall
(I fished mine through a new split loom in place already that I had run for my driving lights)
10) Connect your new wire to which ever through the firewall wire you're using.
11) Re-connect the PCM connector to the PCM. To do this gently push the connector on the socket, Hold your mouth just right and wiggle and jiggle the grey lever until it pulls the connector home and snaps in place.
12) Reinstall your battery, shield and cables.
13) Ready to test.
Vehical in park, no feet on the service brake . toggle switch off. Start your engine, flip your toggle switch and your engine will idle up to 1200 rpm.
14) You can quit grinning now!
I hope the instructions are clear enough. I'm not much of a technical writer.
When I get some free time I'll scan all the needed diagrams and post in my now empty gallery. |

Thanks Westski. Is that guy selling the connectors or do I have to go to my dealer?

Aug,
I checked with the FORD parts guy and he can't get the socket.
The service department should have some old harnesses from when they do warranty work.
They can't give the whole harness because Corporate FORD wants them back, Bur they can cut into the harness and extract qone or two sockets from the large PCM plug for you. |
