I still wanted to know which 2 fuses i needed to pull. The manual just says Fuel pump and Radiator fan. I don't know which ones they are.
No, the battery just died over the weekend. Which one if the radiator fan fuse and which one is the Fuel pump fuse? Anyone have pictures of the fuse box? That can point them out to me?

i've never pulled any fuses when loading a tune??? i've changed between my 3 tunes at least 50 times without ever having to pull a fuse out
Good info. to know. I was just trying to follow the manual that specifically said to pull those two fuses.
Pulling the fuses was only mandatory on the 96...something about the memory in the computer. I tried it without pulling the fuses once and the car acted like a real Mustang...bucking and kicking.

Pulling the fuses was a 'safety' procedure SCT wanted in the X2 users manual - at least that's what they told me when I wrote it for them - because if the battery voltage happened to fall below a certain level, it would mess us the PCM which would entail a tow to the dealers for a reflash back to stock and this could happen on ANY year (96 and up). SCT rightly so, did not want this liability. Pulling those fuses kept the load of the fans and FP out of the loop and made it much more unlikely the PCM might die. Myself, I have never done this - too much trouble, instead, when we always threw a battery charger on the battery during a flash.
I don't have the manual. That is why i'm asking for help from someone that might know.
That was obvious to me when you asked the location of the fuses. Some people who chastized you to "RTFM" need to perhaps realize we are not perfect like he is.

So nobody here knows exactly which fuses are the fuel pump fuse and radiator fan fuse are?

Fuel pump fuse: BJB F1.14(20a).
Radiator fan fuse:4.6l BJB F1.1(50a). 3.8l BJB F1.1(30a).
BJB=battery junction box
CJB=central junction box.
1998 and earlier
Fuel pump 20 amp in the engine compartment.
Fan 60 amp in the engine compartment.
