I'm trying to help. I wish you would not play the "three letter acronym game" me ... I know what ECM means ... and I have written that Ford does not use that term in their electrical diagrams. Ford uses the term PCM (controls the engine and tranny) it is a 104-pin device and it plugs into a receptacle close to the RH hood hinge. I am trying to find out what you have replaced (please don't say "ECM" again!) ... I don't think you replaced three of the PCM's at over $100 (exchange) each .....and now you have budget concerns for the cost of a fuel pump ...?? ....that does't add-up. The Windstar has several electronic control modules on board ... I'm trying to find out exactly what you replaced.

where was this gadget , this ECM, that you replaced? .... where under the hood exactly, or in the car exactly?...where did you purchase them?
