Ford 2024 Bronco Equipment

INSTALLATION GUIDE

Important Notices

The information described herein is believed to be correct at the time of publication, but accuracy cannot be guaranteed. Ford reserves the right to discontinue models or change specifications or designs at any time without notice and without incurring any obligation.

Installation of additional equipment, or alterations to Bronco vehicles as sold by Ford Motor Company may void the vehicle warranty or require certification to US Federal (or Canadian) Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, Emissions standards, state, provincial, and/or local laws and regulations. It is the responsibility of the vehicle alterer to determine what standards, laws or regulations may be affected and take appropriate action.
The suspension and steering systems on the Bronco have been designed and tested to provide predictable performance; Ford does not recommend any modifications such as adding or removing parts (i.e. lift kits or stabilizer bars) or using replacement parts not equivalent to the original factory equipment. Any modifications to your vehicle that raise the center of gravity (i.e. lift kits, roof mounted accessories beyond the stated load capacity) may cause the vehicle to roll over when there is a loss of vehicle control.

The following important items should be carefully considered before modifying a Bronco vehicle:

• Installation of a snow plow of any kind is not endorsed by Ford Motor Company and may void the vehicle warranty.
• Sensors should not be removed, relocated or reoriented unless expressly authorized by Ford Motor Company. Installation of additional equipment should also not interfere with the field of view (FOV) of the camera and radar modules (see additional information in this document for sensor FOV zones). Examples of sensors:

1. Front and rear view cameras
2. Forward facing radar
3. Rear corner radar
4. Crash sensors
5. Yaw sensor
6. ABS wheel speed sensors

• Any added accessories or equipment mounted near exterior lamps and/or reflectors should be checked to ensure the vehicle remains in compliance with FMVSS 108 Lamps, Reflective Devices and Associated Equipment standard.

BRONCO COOLING CONSIDERATIONS

BRONCO AUXILLARY SWITCHES AND WIRING

The Bronco is available with an Auxiliary Switch package that includes six switches wired to six powered circuits and five non-powered circuits to ease the installation of aftermarket equipment. The powered circuits are terminated in blunt cut wires in the underhood location shown. These powered circuits can be completed using the non-powered circuits provided and/or your own wire routing. Terminal locations for the non-power circuits are shown on the next page. Circuits provided are intended to complete the accessory power feed, grounds must be established for each powered circuit. Circuits are active with the ignition in the “on” position only.

BRONCO ADDED CIRCUITS

B+ (Hot at All Times

Any added circuits must be appropriately fused (as close as possible to the battery) and connected to the positive battery terminal in the locations shown.

•  The maximum recommended thickness of terminals being installed is 2.5 mm
• The two terminal studs have different size threads (see below). Use property class 8 or 10 nuts for this application

Circuit Grounding

Ground wires for winch or other high current accessories can be connected directly to the battery B in the location shown.
• If grounding to the body Do not use existing vehicle ground points, new ground location(s) must be established.

BRONCO WIRING PASS THRU

Passing wires through the vehicle dash panel is best done using the existing wiring grommets, which have a provision specifically for that purpose (See Detail A). Detail A shows the driver side grommet, there is also a similar grommet on the passenger side. Passing wires to roof mounted accessories should be done under the passenger side roof ditch molding as shown in Detail B (drilling required).

BRONCO ACCESSORY AND RUN/START CIRCUITS

Delayed Accessory

When installing auxiliary equipmen hat is active with delayed accessory, a BCM feed can be used o directly power added circuit(s} not exceeding 30A co su ption. Ins all a e ale er i al ki (DU2Z-14474-JA) i to the open locatio in BCM Connector 3, Pi 36 to start he circui (s). This BCM output is protected by BCM Fuse 38, ra ed at 30 A ps. If power consumption o added equipment exceeds 30 A ps, teerialki inserted in BCM connector 3, pin 36 ca be used to drive relay(s} con ected directly toB+.

Run /Start

When i stalling auxiliary equipme t that is active with Run / Sta condi io , a relay connected to B+ must be in alled. hat relay can en be driven by a ru / sta feed from the BCM. Ins all a female ermi al ki (DU2Z-14474-DA} i o the open location BCM Connector 3, Pin 23. T e erminal ki should the be co nected o he relay inp (can install a switch betwee the fuse a d relay). This circuit is pro ected by BCM use #22, rated at 5 Amps.
