Ford ECM Repair EEC IV | Fix Multiple Issues | 1980-1996 Ford Bronco F150 | Bronco Restoration

Hello,

This video shows how to replace the failed capacitors in your 1980’s 1990’s Ford car or truck. These capacitors fail causing multiple issues on your electronic fuel injected machine. Replacing these capacitors will save you money as replacement/refurb ECM’s can be very expensive.

That Bronco is beautiful bro. I never wear gloves but if I was working on that thing I would!

Jody Treft says:

What temperature did you use on the soldering iron?

John Paul M says:

Awesome video, just subscribed! I have 1985 F-150 with the 5.0L. Truck starts and idles fine, but when I put in gear it stalls after driving about 10ft. Changed IAC, MAP sensor, coolant temp sensor, new battery, new ignition coil, and checked timing. Any thoughts on what my issue could be?

Hi where do you buy your parts at, am looking for a 986t04 driver for my fuel pump.

Robert Mason says:

Now that’s a clean ass Bronco right there! Doesn’t look molested either! That’s a keeper!

Thank you so much for the info…!!!!this video was superr useful!!!greetings from chihuhua mexico

Car Guy says:

I bet Murphys Law messes with you in the way that every time you solder, no matter which way you sit or face that the smoke goes straight to your face. Oh and I love the wire tip for getting the old solder off.

The HighSchool says:

Just took mine out but it’s still clean :/

Gary Rogers says:

Nice video, I got a super clean 1993 Glaval Universal E150 conversion van that’s having some awkward issues that apparently has cost a family friend hundreds of dollars to no avail and was given to me to solve it and since it’s mine if I do my motivation is high. They replaced the sensors form transmission to the cluster and nothing ever fixed the bouncing speedometer and rough shifts and I’m certain now I have a capacitor issue after this video. Great work and damn nice bronco

Doctor Antivirus says:

Good video as always. I have problems with the parking brake, do you have any video of that?

Francisco CR Cabrera r says:

Is it normal that my 1987 bronco only have 1 capacitor? And the label in the EMC says 3.0 Taurus Sable only

cc says:

Hello,
Great video, beautiful Bronco.
I have a question about codes.
I have a 1992 f250 heavy duty, 5.8 gas 4×4 with 68000 miles.
I've had it for years, never had any problems, always ran when I needed it, rain or shine winter summer, but!
I have a problem now, it shut down after 2 miles running, it started after 10 minutes so
I got it home. Now it starts for a few seconds or less sometimes and that's it.
I Ran the codes and code 55 showed up ( keyed power input to processor is open ) would that be a bad ECM ?
I checked fuses, all seemed good.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Excellent DIY Video..I think you did a great job making this video.
However; Don't know what year your Bronco was, but it didn't work for my 1994 Bronco XLT 5.8.
After removing the drivers side kick panel I could clearly see it didn't match your video and there was no-way the EEC-IV was coming out from the inside.
Mine had too removed from the engine compartment of the drivers side fire wall.
So for anyone doing this, double check to see if your EEC-IV is removed from the inside side of the fire wall or engine compartment side of the fire wall.

Nice looking Vehicle.. Don't know what year your Bronco is, but looking at the vehicle photo I'd guess it was a 1993 or earlier.

James Smith says:

That truck looks better than when it came off the showroom floor. I just did about everything to my 1991 except the computer capacitor replacement but I am definitely doing it now. Thanks again. Isn't your front gearing a 3.54 like mine. When I serviced mine I noticed my front was 3.54 and the rear was 3.55 on tags. Beautiful truck

Remi says:

You bet, i have a question i wonder my ecm has only one capaciter 1989 bronco ii i have the same symptoms with shifting first gear terrible acceleration and chopping mufler sounds, it idles a bit low and if you do a quick and sudden step on gas it kinda wants to stall at first then stutter and rev up! Any thoughts? Thank you also shakes after 3rd gear untill i adjust my step more or less on gas. Nothing is wrong with the exhaust system btw. Thank you

joe chase says:

My god that truck is Beautiful

Remi says:

There is this kind of satisfaction to watching someone that knows what they are doing. Also working on clean components is fun to watch. Thank you for the video

Patrick Litwin says:

You're the man! Thanks for sharing.

1000MileVision says:

well done ! To the point, easy to see, and well demonstrates process; with great tips on removing solder

Elevation Transport says:

You should try to take better care of your bronco man. Lol absolutely beautiful truck!
Great info also. Very cool. I have a 1990 that is a dedicated off road rig with the same issues. I will be excited to give this a shot
