This section contains information
on portions of the electrical system
and lighting that are unique to the
Advantage bus. All bus circuits are
connected to the chassis 12-Volt
Negative Ground Electrical System.
The ignition switch activates most bus
circuits. Information on chassis circuits
and wiring, including headlights, turn
signals, dashboard lighting, driver’s
area light, and fuse panel, may be
found in the manuals provided by
the chassis manufacturer. In addition,
the chassis owner’s manual includes
a listing of bulbs and fuses used for
chassis-related components.
Chassis service literature, including wiring
diagrams and electrical troubleshooting manuals,
are available from your local Ford dealer or by
using the order forms in the chassis owner’s
manual.
