Gold Plated Pins

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 32 other vehicles, including the 2011 Mercury Milan, 2011 Mercury Mariner, 2011 Mercury Grand Marquis, 2011 Lincoln Town Car, and 2011 Lincoln Navigator L. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Gold plated terminals should only be replaced with new gold plated terminals.

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