water ingress

[ethrty]

Mine had a water deflecter fitted last time i was in for a service. I went to pick the van up and suprised to find the headlight out, they were just putting it in as i arrived, they said they had just fitted the update part. They also replaced a few of the terminals for free as well.

Hi folks. There is an water ingress recall might be worth checking if you need it. Get it free then

What does it consist of? Or to put it another way. What do they actually do?

It's fitting a water diverter and air filter if wet.

Oh bum. I take it back. It's not customs. Just Transit. Sorry. Didn't realise what board I was on.

I have only fitted this to the near side to protect the ECU and so far the whole area does stay dry.
All it is is a couple of sheets of self adhesive sound deadening material ( sourced from eBay for another project ) that are stuck to each other then to the rear of the bulkhead and inner wing.
When the weather warms up and dries out a bit I am going to put a small amount of black silicone sealant on the lower 3/4 cm of the channel to the lower end of the front screen and try and deflect the water from this ' gap' onto the bottom of the screen and into the plastic scuttle and away via the correct ducts.

Hi ethrty, just wondered if you have any more info on the mod you have had done, could you possibly post some pics so we can see what Ford have come up with. Does it work??

Sorry about my previous post, I thought you were the guy who had the mod done by ford, still a good mod though and if it works may be way to go.
Im having some side windows fitted next Saturday and will ask the fitter about a rubber surround around the front screen to help with the water deflection into the correct area.

Sorry to bump an old post but did Ford ever come up with a mod for this issue? I've recently had to change my BCM.
