GT5-S owners manual

I think the last time this came up, we decided that- yes, sort of- is the answer. The manual apparently given with the wide-body cars is the same Red Owners Manual circa 1973 for narrow-body cars, with a three or four-pg supplement covering the changes to the fuse panel, relays etc. for the post-Ford Panteras. The red owners manuals are readily available from all vendors, POCA's store and Chapters and so forth. The supplement might have to be a photocopy from an owner of such.

Thanks for the info!!

Thanks

Yes, there does exist a manual for the GT5-S cars. I have a copy and I wouldn't call it the most complete manual I have ever seen. As Jack states, it is the owners manual for the early cars with a few pages changed - namely the fuses and HVAC control panel.

Knowing the fuse configuration could be quite handy, but the description of the HVAC panel left me with questions that I still don't know to this day (specifically wrt getting fresh air into the cabin)

Charlie, Does it have info on how to set time on the digital clock ? Or do I have to find a twelve year old to show me. Jim Coyne

Reaching out to anybody who can copy the owners suppliment info for a GT5-S .
Some GT5-S owner must have it!!!!

Wayne

Jim - go figure! It does NOT! BEst best is to find a 12 year old! Man, that clock is a pain to set!!

I used to set it once a year, disconnecting the battery for winter (I now have a battery tender). It would take FOREVER to figure out the trick, which I would inevitably forget by the following year.

I think the best plan is the 12 year old... My clock is accurate right now but I literally couldn't tell you how I did it!

Wayne - in my opinion, the only really useful part of the GT5-S manual is the fuse panel layout. I've scanned those 2 pages for other 5-S owners. Send me your e-mail address in a PM and I'll send them to you.

Happy to scan anything else you have a specific interest in, but there really isn't much useful. Doesn't even tell you how to set the clock!

Wayne, you've got mail, as the saying goes.

For posterity, I've uploaded the fuse diagram to my POCA website:
