Advanced Amplier Interface
for Select Ford Vehicles
AP4-FD31
Setup and Conguration
1. Once all connections have been made and all factory harnesses are reconnected, close all the doors, lock the car using the
factory keyfob, and let the vehicle sit for 10 minutes with the keyfob out of range. This will ensure that the vehicle data-bus
goes to sleep and the AmpPRO will function as intended.
2. Turn the ignition on. LED 1 on the interface will turn on and the +12v remote output will turn on.
3. Set the amp gain(s) to the desired level. We recommend using an oscilliscope and test tones to set the amp gain(s). Please
refer to the MECP Advanced study guide if you are unfamiliar with this process.
4. Check volume, balance, fade and EQ settings.
5. If you would like to adjust the chime volume or minimum volume, do so using one of the methods outlined below. If you are
happy with the default levels, no adjustments are necessary.
