Im doing AOD to T-5 swap, any helpfull info / things to keep in mind would be great

fiveohpatrol · 09-26-2001, 01:21 PM

both AOD and T-5 cars have the same wiring close to the tranny, then each has a specific harness that plugs into that wiring, the AOD harness has 4 wires coming out of it, 2 for a neutral safety switch and 2 for revers lights, the T-5 harness has 4 wires coming out also but one is jumped/looped so theres actually only 2 coming out, these are for the reverse lights, the 2 that are jumped are the neutral safety wires
you can find the T-5 harness from a junkyard somewhere, maybe a ford dealer, if you do find one it will plug right in
i couldnt find one so i just used the AOD one, found out which 2 wires to loop together and then crimped connectors on the reverse light wires to hook them up, good luck
