Help finding the MS CAN

Featured Replies

Help....Can anyone tell me where I can tap into the MS CAN? I am upgrading to sync2 and I need to splice into it, but I have no Blue connection behind the heater (only the basic heater). 



If you don't have it on your heater controls, how about from the obd port?

This link shows the ms can connections on the port.

Ok I've found it now. Had a good study of the wiring diagram (there's 2 hours I'll never get back) and the MS CAN runs around the car on the purple\orange (-) and grey\orange (+) wires. I found a big connection block behind the centre console trim in the passengers footwell with both wires in, if anyones interested.

Did you not have these on the the blue plug in heater control ?

how you got on with the sync upgrade ?

No mate, I have no blue plug on my heater controls. My Focus is the most basic. Actually, I think it was basic anyway and then they took more bits off it!!! I'm pretty much there now with the sync 2 upgrade. I've just got to get my microphone working. Think it's a software issue. When I try to load the module build data in Forscan, it seems to get stuck.
