Kerry, get the car warm and then pop the hood on your car. Manually rev the car past 3500 and see if the secondaries open. Watch right under the intake tube by the throttle body and you should see the mechanism move if so. If it does not move, turn the car off, turn it back on and try it again.

My secondaries would stop working after about 5 miles of driving and then I would have to turn the car off and back on and they would work again for another couple miles. I had a bad secondary controller. Ford wants a fortune for these things. Also follow your cable from your secondary controller, sometimes the cable frays and becomes disconnected.
