If it was, your airbag warning light would be on constantly.

Guest PHNTUM Guests Posted 09/03/04 08:15 AM Share Posted 09/03/04 08:15 AM FORDTECHThis wire seems to be not used (should it be connected to somthing or remain unconnected if so it should be properly terminated.I was at the dealer today and looked at some XR turbos and the same wire was not connected. I take its standard on all cars.. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/9535-cut-wire-behind-gt-steering-wheel/#findComment-99326 Share on other sites More sharing options...
