Ford C255 Electronic Instrument Cluster Connector Pinout & Wire Colors
Connector pinout for the C255 electronic instrument cluster listing pin numbers, color-coded circuits, and functions.
This document is a connector pinout reference for connector C255, the electronic instrument cluster connector. It includes a diagram of the 18-pin connector showing the physical arrangement of pins (1 and 18 at the top corners, 9 and 10 at the bottom), with each wire's circuit number and color code labeled on either side. Below the diagram, a table lists all 18 pin positions with their circuit number, wire color abbreviation, and circuit function. Functions covered include the Electronic Engine Control (EEC) module signal, power to warning indicators, brake fluid level switch, high beam indicator, left and right turn signal indicators, ground, seat belt warning, anti-lock brake control module indicator, door ajar indicator, ignition switch to IAR resistor, alternator, power to and for LCD lamps, and anti-theft indicator ground and power. Pin 7 is marked 'Open' and pin 10 is 'NOT USED.' Wire colors include PK/LG, R/Y, P/W, LG/BK, LG/W, BK, LB/R, W/LB, Y, LG/Y, DB/LG, BK/PK, P/O, LG/R, GY/Y, and BK/O. A reader can use this document to identify wire functions and colors when diagnosing or repairing electronic instrument cluster wiring at connector C255.
