1 amp diode wiring evo-all fort4 2016 ford escape

Question

installing evo-all fort4 t-harness on 2016 ford escape, the instructions list a 1-amp diode as not included and the wiring diagram shows it used on the white/black wire connecting to the door lock. There already appears to be a factory installed diode on the white/black wire at the base of the t-harness connector, is a second user installed 1-amp diode also required to be wired, or was it pre-wired with the t-harness and the manual incorrectly lists as not included?

Answer 1

Look closely at the white / Black stripe wire. The diode is already installed. I’m installing in a 2017 Ford Expedition and was wondering the same. Use t-taps to make the connection. Mine also requires a 12vdc connection on the red and black wires to power the unit.

good luck!!
