what hightower forget to mention that the power plug is glued to the metal box! it was extremely difficult to remove. This isnt for everyone.

Mine wasn't. It slid off just fine. What, did you break your's?

Hi Chris
I'm going to have to open mine up, but there must be more than one version (part #)IMRC's. My DC motor's on the right side of the box.
Or could just be the Ole Forgetter.
I'm definitely going to note this TIP121 Thanks. Did you find a schematic for this or just start tracing?
I had issues with mind related to the connector attaches to the pc-board. Re-soldered and lost that intermitnent pain.
I have 98 (07/97) and recently bought a another 98 built 08/98.
Good ole running changes I guess?

TNX for sharing
Paul

Ford uses that intake controller for a lot of stuff. Even the SVT Focus has the same controller.

Just so everyone is aware, I used the TIP121 transistor. I also think the TIP120 should work, too.

I do have 8 of these transistors left, so if anyone wants one or wants me to replace their's, let me know.

Chris, do you know the specs (voltage, mostly) of the stock transistor?

Well, the markings on it say 2N6045 and 648 with an (M) on it. This means it is a 2N6045 transistor which the datasheet can be found HERE.

They look to be similar to the TIP121 as far as function. However, the (M) on the chip means it might be a Motorola and this particular rev seems to go bad with lots of heat (defective operation)

According to multiple websites, the TIP102 is a superior replacement for both the 2N6045 and TIP122 (both 100v models). The spec sheet for the TIP102 shows that its power dissipation and thermal resistance are better than the other two. Here's the page (use Search on left) that will give the spec sheets for all three:

I'm going to try to replace mine soon, and I'll probably use the TIP102.

Just food for thought.

TIP102 is TO-220AB package and TIP120/1/2 is TO-220 package. Not sure what the difference is though.

The website I posted lists all three models (Motorola manufactured) as being TO-220AB package, and not just the TIP102. Other websites also list all three as being in the same package (whether it be TO-220 or TO-220AB), as long as the manufacturer stays consistent in your search. For example, Motorola manufactured TIP102, TIP122, and 2N6045 all are TO-220AB, whereas the majority of other brands all seem to be TO-220.

So, if the stock one is a Motorola, a TIP102 that's made by Motorola should work.

EDIT: This website has a couple tables listing the differences between the TO-220 and TO-220AB.

Not sure if this Q has been answered, but will you ALWAYS get a code if they aren't working?
