Hi there, Is this diagram address your request?

All diffs can be rebuilt.

That's where I would start. Get a spray bottle with water in it and a few drops of dish soap just to make it sudsy. Start the truck and spray around all of the vacuum lines, intake manifold, etc. If the idle goes up, that's your leak. Good luck

Check fuel pump relay and when it stops check for spark at the spark plug lead.

This is your pats transceiver. I don't know if this helps? I looked at info for 3.0L--99--ranger. You have to remove steering column cover to get at it. Also, note the wiring for transceiver. I didn't see wire color you mentioned? You might be able to go to your local dealership and talk to their service department, or call them. See if they have a transceiver in stock that they will let you look at and compare it to what you have?

Had a similar issue on an old Mazda pickup that was really a Ford. I found that the issue was with an ABS sensor mounted near the rear axle. When I opened the cover, I found a lot of corrosion. I scraped out what I could and sprayed it down liberally with some electrical contact cleaner. I did not have any ABS function to my brakes althought they still worked. 2 or 3 days after my cleaning efforts, the ABS and brake light went out and the ABS function returned to my brakes! I think a junk yard wanted a couple hundred bucks for that part. Check and see if you have the actual abs function (ie brake pedal pulsing during a skidding hard braking action). This may very well be your isse and it may be a very cheap fix!
