Gold-Plated Pins

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2004 Ford RV Cutaway, 2004 Ford Pickup, 2004 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2004 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2004 Ford Excursion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Some engine control hardware components have gold-plated pins on the connectors and mating harness connectors to improve electrical stability for low draw current circuits and to enhance corrosion resistance. The EC components equipped with gold terminals will vary by vehicle application.

NOTE: Damaged gold terminals should only be replaced with new gold terminals.
