2006 Ford Mustang EEC fuse

Any aftermarket electronics? Remote starter? EEC fuse will blow if the tach wire is grounding out. If any aftermarket stuff try pulling the fuses for them.

When the EEC fuse blows, you have no spark, it stands for Electronic Engine control. If you can find the PCM and check the connections to it. Have it scanned for any codes.

I don't know what they will charge, but yes Ford can test/ reflash them out of the car.

52= low battery voltage, I think you need to trace your tach wire it's the one labeled TACH on the coil, if it grounds out, the EEC fuse will blow and wont work until the short is fixed. Try removing it from the coil, install a new fuse, turn the key on and see if the fuse blows, if not, your coil could even have an internal short. The other thing to remeber, is you need at least 9 volts for the PCM to work! C harge the battery, then retest!

OK.

Time to run some circuit tests.

ARTICLE BEGINNING
INTRODUCTION
Before testing separate components or systems, perform basic diagnostic procedures in appropriate F - BASIC TESTING article. Since many computer-controlled and monitored components set a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) if they malfunction, also perform self-diagnostics in appropriate G - TEST W/CODES article.

NOTE: Testing individual components does not isolate short or open circuits. Perform all voltage tests with a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance, unless stated otherwise in test procedure. Use DVOM to isolate shorted or open wiring harness.
NOTE: For identification of circuits and terminals referenced in test procedures, see appropriate WIRING DIAGRAMS article.

COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE

Ground Circuits
1.Using a DVOM, check for continuity to ground at the following Powertrain Control Module (PCM) connector terminals. See IDENTIFYING POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE PWR GND TERMINALS table. See Fig. 1 . If continuity does not exist, repair open ground circuit as necessary. If continuity exists, go to next step.
IDENTIFYING POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE PWR GND TERMINALS Application PCM Harness Connector Terminal No. All Others 24, 51, 76, 77 & 103 Contour & Mystique, & Escort & Tracer (1.9L) 24, 51, 77 & 103
2.Touch negative lead of DVOM to a good ground. With vehicle running, backprobe positive lead of DVOM to each ground terminal. DVOM should indicate less than one volt. If reading is greater than one volt, check for open, corrosion or loose connection on ground lead.

Power Circuits
Turn ignition off. Using a DVOM, check for battery voltage between ground and PCM terminal No. 55 (KAPWR). Turn ignition switch to START or RUN position. Check for battery voltage between ground and PCM connector terminals No. 71 and 97 (VPWR). If battery voltage is not present, power is not being supplied from EEC power relay.

You may have to pull the fuse box, and trace the wires, test with ohm meter...

They arent meant to! All the testing info is in the posts! Your problem is a simple as tracing the wires out of the fuse box, or CCRM.

CCRM may need to be changed, unless you find a short between the A/C compressor and CCRM.
