This document is a factory-style wiring diagram for the Integrated Control Panel (ICP) — the combined radio/climate control head unit — in a Ford Taurus/Sable-family vehicle. It shows five power feeds from the I/P fuse panel (pages 13-4 through 13-15): a 5A hot-in-start feed, a 5A hot-in-start-or-run feed (fuse 4), a 5A hot-in-run-or-acc feed (fuse 7), a 5A hot-at-all-times feed (fuse 24), and a 10A feed hot with the rear window defrost relay energized (fuse 32). Wire circuits are identified by number and color: 1000 R/BK (battery/accessory feed through splice S413, also feeding the power antenna via C400), 640 R/Y, 1002 BK/PK and 434 LB/BK (autolamps/delayed exit), 729 R/W, and 59 DG/P (rear window defrost/heated mirrors). Below the ICP, the diagram shows grounds 57 BK to G200 and 694 BK/LG to G402, plus data/audio lines: 1010 DB/O to the Generic Electronic Module (GEM), 723 GY/R to the cellular telephone, and ACP bus circuits 1068 LG/BK, 832 LB/PK, and 833 T linking the ICP to the Electronic Automatic Temperature Control (EATC) and the Rear Control Unit (RCU). Connector and splice IDs (C247, C235, C237, C214F/C214M, C411, S211, S213, S216, S224) and cross-reference page numbers are included.

Frequently asked questions

Which fuses power the Integrated Control Panel (ICP)?
Five I/P fuse panel feeds are shown: fuse 34 (5A, hot in start), fuse 4 (5A, hot in start or run), fuse 7 (5A, hot in run or acc), fuse 24 (5A, hot at all times), and fuse 32 (10A, hot with the rear window defrost relay energized).
What wire carries constant battery power to the ICP?
Circuit 729 R/W (red/white) from fuse 24 (5A, hot at all times) through splice S216, per Power Distribution page 13-7.
Where are the ICP grounds located?
Circuit 57 BK grounds through splice S212 to G200 (grounds pages 10-6, 10-7), and circuit 694 BK/LG passes through connector C214F/C214M and splice S442 to ground G402 (grounds page 10-16).
What circuits connect the ICP to the EATC and Rear Control Unit?
Circuit 1068 LG/BK (ACP wakeup / A5V50N), 832 LB/PK (ACP -), and 833 T (ACP +) run to the Electronic Automatic Temperature Control (page 55-2) and to the Rear Control Unit via C411 (RCU pins 2, 1, and 15).
What wire connects the ICP to the GEM?
Circuit 1010 DB/O from ICP pin 17 goes to the Generic Electronic Module (GEM), referenced on page 59-4.
