Mercury Sable HVAC Electrical Parts

Modern vehicles may have 100 or more electrical harness connectors in every operating system of the vehicle. Terminal tension may weaken with time or corrosion may occur within the connector housing making replacement necessary. When replacing any harness-connector assembly approved wire termination methods must be followed to ensure a successful and long-term solution to the original problem is made. A failed terminal connection, terminal corrosion or damaged wire will result in an electrical system fault.

Product Features:

• Carquest electrical connectors meet or exceed OE wire gauge, insulation, and terminal material requirements.
• WVE electrical connectors meet or exceed OE wire gauge, insulation, and terminal material requirements.
• Product constructed to meet all design and operating characteristics as intended by the manufacturer.
• OE specified wire gauge to ensure a reliable electrical connection
• Designed to meet or exceed OE specifications in form, fit and function

The temperature of various systems must be reported to the engine control module (ECM) as well as other operating system controllers in the vehicle. Coolant temperature, cabin temperature, exhaust temperature and ambient temperature are just a few systems reported by a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is fed 5 volts by the systems computer, within the sensor housing will be a thermistor, or dropping resistor whose resistance value will change as the temperature surrounding it changes. Changing resistance in the circuit will change the volt signal at the processor indicating the current operating value.

Product Features:

• Product constructed to meet all design and operating characteristics as intended by the vehicle manufacturer.
• 100% thermo-shock and vibration tested to ensure superior performance in extreme conditions.
• 100% end-of-line tested to ensure accurate signal output providing product reliability, every time.
• Tin plated lead frame prevents corrosion and ensures a reliable terminal connection under adverse ambient conditions.
• Lead frame terminal size and location determined using image dimension measuring system or 3D laser scanner.
• Application matched components ensures system operation in like new condition.
