What fuse powers the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) circuit on the 5.0L?

Fuse panel position 17, a 10A fuse on a Hot in Start or Run feed, supplies circuit 640 (R/Y wire) to the MIL in the instrument cluster (fuse panel details on pages 13-3 and 13-9).

What wire color and circuit number connect the MIL to the PCM?

Circuit 658, a PK/LG (pink/light green) wire, runs from the instrument cluster through C251, C202, the VIP Data Link Connector, and C198 to PCM pin 17.

How does the Clutch Pedal Position (CPP) switch circuit differ by transmission?

With E4OD/4R70W or C6 automatic transmissions, a CPP switch jumper is installed at C261. With a manual transmission an actual CPP switch is used, which prevents engine startup with the clutch pedal released. In all cases circuit 480 (P/Y) feeds in and circuit 481 (GY/Y) goes to PCM pin 30 via C202 and C185.

When does the Malfunction Indicator Lamp light according to this diagram?

The note states the indicator lights with the ignition switch in the ON position prior to cranking and goes off when the engine starts; if a fault develops in the engine control system, the PCM will turn on the indicator.

This is page 24-7, "Engine Controls, 5.0L," a wiring diagram from a Ford factory-style electrical manual covering the engine control (PCM) start/run circuits for the 5.0L engine. It shows the Hot in Start or Run feed from fuse panel position 17 (10A) via circuit 640 (R/Y wire) through splice S215 and connector C250 to the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) in the instrument cluster, then via circuit 658 (PK/LG) through C251, C202, the VIP Data Link Connector, and C198 to PCM pin 17. A note explains the MIL lights with the ignition ON before cranking and stays on if a fault develops. The ignition switch START circuit feeds circuit 32 (R/LB) through C269 and splice S224 to circuit 480 (P/Y), which routes through the Clutch Pedal Position (CPP) switch or jumper at C261—jumpered for E4OD/4R70W and C6 automatic transmissions, an actual CPP switch for manual transmissions (preventing startup with the clutch pedal released)—then circuit 481 (GY/Y) through C202 and C185 to PCM pin 30. Also shown are PCM pins 5 and 29 (circuits 970 DG/W, 766 BK/LG to the 4R70W transmission, page 29-4) and pins 10 and 43 (circuits 883 PK/LB and 348 P to the air conditioner/heater, page 54-2). Cross-references include power distribution page 13-16 and starting system page 20-1.
