Diagnostic Overview 

Diagnostics in this service information assume a certain skill level and knowledge of Ford-specific diagnostic practices. Refer to Diagnostic Methods in Service Information for information about these practices.

Refer to Vehicle Emergency Messaging System , for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

The SOD-R uses an address ground pin for configuration. The address ground is necessary so the BLIS® or the CTA system can decipher between the SOD-R and the SOD-L during configuration. The SOD-R communicates over the MS-CAN.
