Aftermarket equipment installation
Ford has developed a Police Interceptor Modifier Guide to assist the
vehicle modifier in safely installing police equipment into the vehicle.
The guide provides detailed information on the location of key vehicle
components that must be untouched and warnings for other areas where
caution must be exercised. The Modifier Guide is available for
downloading, free of charge, from www.fleet.ford.com.
When installing aftermarket equipment, avoid using fasteners that are too
long for the application or are in an area which might damage vehicle
components, including wiring, brake lines, fuel tank and lines, powertrain
components, exhaust system and suspension.
Also, do not make electrical connections to vehicle electrical systems not
specifically designed for aftermarket equipment installations. Refer to the
“Electrical and Vacuum Troubleshooting Manual” for electrical system
information.
Do not install any components into the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) or PCM harness. Connecting into this system may affect engine
and transmission operation.
As an example: connection of aftermarket electrical equipment into the
brake light circuit or any other circuit which is connected to the PCM,
anti-lock brake computer, air bag system or any other vehicle system
which will cause vehicle malfunction.
Contact during a crash with aftermarket equipment in a vehicle
can result in a personal injury.
Installation of prisoner barriers may increase the risk of injury to
front seat occupants if the vehicle is impacted from the rear at
high speeds. This risk should be balanced, by the law enforcement
agency, against the risk of injury to the Officer associated with prisoner
transport.
